Educational Technology Relevant News Accrediting Bodies Considering Standards "The six bodies that grant accreditation to colleges and universities in the United States are near agreement on guidelines for evaluating distance education that differ from traditional accrediting standards by focusing on how much students learn. If enacted, the regional accrediting agencies would use the guidelines to set standards for granting accreditation to distance-education programs and institutions." "Representatives of the six U.S. regional accrediting bodies have finalized a set of recommendations for building and evaluating online-education programs. But the recommendations won't become accreditation standards, says Charles M. Cook, the director of the New England Association of Schools and Colleges' Commission on Institutions of Higher Education. 'We've always considered them testimonials, not a new set of standards,' he says. 'It's always been the local regions' option of how to adopt them.'"

CFNP Summer Food Service Program for Children (SFSP) When school lets out, millions of low-income children lose access to the school breakfasts, lunches and afterschool snacks they receive during the regular school year. The Summer Food Service Program for Children is a key to filling this gap. The Summer Food Service Program provides meals and snacks to children who might otherwise go hungry and is often provided in conjunction with educational, developmental, and recreational activities. With more parents working outside the home, organizations are serving school-age children afterschool as well as during the summer. History The Summer Food Service Program for Children (SFSP) was created by Congress in 1968. It is an entitlement program designed to provide funds for eligible sponsoring organizations to serve nutritious meals to low-income children when school is not in session. Benefits The SFSP feeds hungry children in the summer, gives a boost to public and private non-profit summer programs, and helps give low-income children the best start on the new school year. Many of the children served are at nutritional risk when they do not have access to school meals.
