Extractions: Lead Economics of Enforcement As one of its 467 objectives for improving the health status of Americans by the end of the decade, Healthy People 2010 calls for total elimination of elevated blood lead in children. That goal may be hard to achieve as long as thousands of older, mainly inner-city dwellings remain covered with deteriorating lead-based paint, the primary source of lead exposure for hundreds of thousands of children. But growing evidence shows that, while the cost of remediation may seem high, the cost of doing nothing is far higher. Short-term costs, long-term benefits.

Extractions: December 20, 2004 New York, NY According to a new study conducted for the Manhattan Institute by Baruch College professors June O'Neill (Economics and Finance) and Sanders Korenman (Public Affairs), Clinton-era welfare reform has played a significant role in the reduction of child poverty in the United States, especially among black and latino populations. These findings, the authors say, belie the theory that 1990s welfare reform would drive destitute mothers and children into deeper poverty. The study covers the years 1993 to 2001. The study, released last week, is entitled Child Poverty and Welfare Reform: Stay the Course . It states that up to one half of the record decline in child poverty during the late 1990s was influenced by welfare reform. By 2001, the child poverty rate had fallen 6 percentage points from its 1993 peak, a 27% decline, to its lowest level since the mid-1970s. The decline in child poverty was particularly dramatic among black and Hispanic children. Between 1993 and 2002, the poverty rate among black and Hispanic children declined by almost one-third, far exceeding historical trends.
Innovative Teaching - Economics Whatever the reason, economics does not get its due in the classroom. This week slinks are offered in the hopes it will make the inclusion of economics in http://surfaquarium.com/newsletter/econ.htm
Extractions: Let's see what we can do for your staff! Economics is often treated as the ugly stepchild of the Social Studies. Not as glamorous as history or as concrete as geography, it tends to get a passing treatment as it incidentally pops up in the curriculum. Perhaps it is because its concepts tend to be more sophisticated and hard to master. Or maybe it's because it seems as much a kin to Math as it does the humanities. Whatever the reason, economics does not get its due in the classroom. This week's links are offered in the hopes it will make the inclusion of economics in instruction a little less difficult and maybe even a little more fun. There will not be an IT Newsletter next week as we break for Thanksgiving, but we will resume on December 2nd with an edition dedicated to virtual science museums - can't wait! Enjoy this week's newsletter - there were so many good sites I couldn't limit it to a digital dozen!
