Extractions: Water Quality 2002: Teaching the Science of Water Quality January 22 - May 3, 2002 Today's science teacher faces challenges and issues, which were just beginning to gain attention 10, 15, or 20 years ago. And, teaching today's science requires both an integrated background and approach in the classroom. Water Quality 2002: Teaching the Science of Water Quality in the classroom - is a 'must' course for teachers involved in any aspect of biological sciences. Water quality can be called an "integrating" science, in that it serves as a platform for expanded applications of chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics, geology, earth science, political and social sciences, and creative arts. The Water Quality 2002 course has three central foci: 1) to increase student knowledge and assessment skills about the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of water quality investigations, 2) to develop and implement new pedagogies for teaching water quality concepts in the secondary school science classroom, and 3) increase student awareness and understanding of some of the more significant global water quality issues that will face science teachers and their students in the 21st century. This course teaches water quality concepts and how to demonstrate, explain, and teach them in the science classroom. Course format includes weekly "kitchen counter" experimentation, library and independent research, written homework, discussion.

Extractions: The Historical Association (HA) training will respond to the specifically identified needs of teachers themselves. Those who initially feel that they have a low level of ICT skills will benefit particularly from the optional 'face to face' sessions, which will be staged at appropriate times and venues. All our materials are available via our History Online website, so our training costs include a one-year free subscription to this service. Phase 1. Face to face sessions. Face-to-face sessions will be optional, and will combine hands-on skills training and a focus on the curricular benefits and historical applications of ICT. In overview, a typical one day session might give the teacher a choice of three main sessions, with the option to remain in one of these sessions more than once to practise and develop particular areas of interest, skill or weakness. Session 1 : An overview of the value of ICT in developing teaching and learning in history.

Many teachers who are interested in learning about using video and computers in the classroom feel frustrated when trying to learn on their ownthey're spending time they don't have just figuring out the basics of how the equipment works rather than how they as teachers can put technology to work. It's also often difficult to find time in a busy schedule to learn on one's own, and much more pleasantand efficientto share insights while learning with others. These seminars will offer information in a form and at a pace to be absorbed. They will also provide hands-on time with experts who can answer your questions to help you get on with building your skill and enhancing your lessons with technology. We've tried to be as flexible as possible by offering one-day and four-day workshops from which to choose. The workshops have both morning and afternoon components, so it's not possible to take more than one workshop in a single time slot. Mini-sessions include 6 hours of instruction for one day. Four-day computer sessions have three hours of supervised hands-on practice time in addition to 3 hours of hands-on class time per day for four days. Participants will have access to the ELI's Learning Center during open hours in the evenings. We also have free outings planned for the weekends, for those who'd like to take advantage of the Oregon scene.

This newsletter concentrates on the teaching of chemistry using web materials. This is evidently a topical issue as a recent meeting of Chemistry Webmasters at Bristol University entitled Chemistry, Education and the Internet also considered whether the web will significantly affect the way chemistry is taught, and whether the web makes students better chemists . The full report of the meeting can be found at http://www.chemsoc.org/gateway/webarticle.htm on the RSC's web. In this CacheFile there are two articles. The first concentrates on the impact that the web may have on teaching chemistry whilst the second looks at a new project started recently to review the quality of web materials set up for teaching chemistry. This latter project is a collaborative venture which involves both Paul Yates of Keele University, funded by the chemistry FDTL project IMPROVE, and the CTI Centre for Chemistry. In addition some of the expenses of the project are being met by the Network for Chemistry Teachers. The web reviews resulting from this project will be published on the CTI Centre's web site. Web Teaching Introduction via human-human interaction. However, can the web really help teachers and students with teaching and learning, and if so, in what ways? More importantly, is it worth the effort?

Extractions: here are thousands of buildings in this country, with millions of people in them who have no telephones, no cable television, and no reasonable prospect of broadband services. They're called schools," said Reed E. Hundt, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission in a New York Times interview on December 6, 1993. Many students today are not getting the technological information in the classroom that they need to meet the demands of the future. To combat this problem, DOE's Office of Science Education and External Relations at ORNL has created the Oak Ridge Regional Education Center. The center offers year-round, hands-on learning and research opportunities for students and teachers from elementary school through college using the most up-to-date computer equipment. Several years ago, DOE named several national laboratories, including ORNL, as science education centers. The Oak Ridge Regional Education Center was built in January 1993. The center interacts with numerous regional groups, including the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Appalachian Regional Commission, and the Appalachia Education Laboratory. DOE is committed to using its highly trained technical staff and advanced facilities to strengthen science and mathematics education nationally. New partnerships are strengthening the center's focus on national education goals and on education reform within the Southeast. Support for these partnerships includes a major new focus on computing and communications technology for educational applications.

Extractions: Next Generation Divide Think the gap between technology haves and have-nots has been closed? Think again By Kathleen Vail Children in the impoverished Mississippi Delta community of West Bolivar found it hard to imagine a city like New York until their third-grade teacher took the class on a virtual field trip to the Big Apple. Using computers and an Internet connection provided by a national nonprofit group, the teacher and students saw the United Nations building and traveled up Fifth Avenue. The city streets seemed so far from the cotton fields where they are growing up that one child asked, "Where are the farms?" The teacher used the virtual trip as the basis for a lesson on different parts of the country, including the differences between industrial and agricultural areas, says Julie Evans, executive director of NetDay in Irvine, Calif. The technology, Evans says, helped the teacher "open new vistas of learning." This anecdote is to use an analog analogy a textbook example of how technology can help poor and minority students, if only they have the computers, Internet connections, content, and teacher training to make it possible.

The earlier type, called Computer Based Instruction (CBI), focused on the interaction between the student and computer drills, tutorials or simulations. Today, the prevailing paradigm is Computer Mediated Communication (CMC), where the primary form of interaction is between students and instructors, mediated by the computer. CBI is usually individualized (self-study) learning, while CMC involves teacher/tutor facilitation. In this book, when we refer to online learning, we are always talking about CMC, not CBI.

Extractions: Audio Hardware Booting Your OS Command Reference ... X Window Currently the popularity of Linux is growing by leaps and bounds, as corporations, schools, small businesses, governments, and home users are seeing new alternatives to Microsoft Windows. What JustLinux and its many forum users have created is a new form of documentation for new and experienced Linux users who are looking for help from other users who have been there before. Instead of having to perform heavy research with the difficult to read 'man pages'and the voluminous HOWTO files, our concept is to take unique, personal, and concise content and serve that to the average Linux user. All users may contribute by writing up their personal tips and tricks or full fledged articles, which are then converted to instructional Help Files. In this way, writers get a chance to be published while helping others participate in the Linux community via a more comfortable 'portal' where asking questions is not looked down upon. Help File topics can span over everything that entails the Linux experience. Some example Help File topics are: Configuring the desktop, X Configuration (gui), Security, Linux Lingo, Linux Applications, File Systems, Installation, and so on.
