    Extractions: Publications - Coming Soon! Cooperative education is an academic/business strategy that combines on-campus study with practical, paid work experience. Students in cooperative education programs alternate between periods of study in school and periods of employment in business, government and non-profit organizations. Both types of learning experiences are planned and supervised to contribute to students' education and employability. Formal cooperative education began at the University of Cincinnati in the early 1900's when 27 engineering students were placed in a training program which alternated one week of practical work experience with one week of instruction at the school. The program developed so well that the entire school of engineering shifted to the cooperative plan in 1920. The first secondary cooperative education program was established in 1909 at Fitchburg, Massachusetts, in cooperation with the General Electric Company. Based on the success of the Cincinnati venture, other schools and colleges started programs of their own. The University of Detroit (1911) and General Motors Institute (1925) were the first colleges in Michigan to adopt the cooperative plan.

Does 92.111 fulfill the new mathematics General Education requirement? Can 92.111 be used as a free elective for all students? ... Do credits earned in 92.127 count towards graduation? Do students who currently take 92.11 (Math Perspectives) need to take both 92.111 and 92.151? NO... Most students will take only one of them, depending on the circumstances. Who should take the new 92.111 (Quantitative Reasoning)? Some humanities/social science students may be required to take this course as a result of placement test scores. For Spring, 2001 the only students who must take 92.111 are those who were placed in sections 221-232 of 92.111 in Fall, 2000 but did not pass. Other students who are weak in mathematics, particularly those having difficulty in 92.183 or 92.283, may elect to take this course. Does 92.111 fulfill the new mathematics General Education requirement?

    Extractions: OCTOBER 1997 Proposed General Education Plan for the University of Massachusetts Boston EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I. Goals and Principles of General Education The purpose of the General Education Program at the University of Massachusetts Boston is to facilitate the acquisition of the knowledge, capabilities, and attitudes which will help students form a foundation for lifelong learning. As a result of our program, our students should graduate with the capacity and propensity to: engage in critical reading and analysis; speak, listen and write effectively; reason logically and quantitatively; use technology to further learning; work independently and collaboratively; explore the principal approaches to knowledge; understand and respect human diversity; and learn in depth. In order to assist our students in the achievement of these goals and to work within the realities of our institution, we believe that any revision of general education at UMass Boston should: - Build on present curricular strengths and experiences - Extend throughout a student's college career - Consider the needs of transfer students - Integrate work in general education with the major - Allow appropriate collegiate variation - Be periodically assessed and revised II. Summary of the Plan

    http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/infousa/facts/democrac/16.htm
    
    Extractions: Horace Mann The European tradition of education centered in the family rather than in schools did not take root in the United States, because the pattern of the extended familyseveral generations living under one roofdisappeared on the frontier. As families moved to take advantage of free land, the old educational patterns broke down, and new forms were generated. As a result, Americans began to delegate more and more educational responsibility to the schools. The basic skills of reading, writing and arithmetic were just the start; over the decades society has assigned many other skills previously learned in the homes to be taught in schools. But aside from teaching knowledge and skills, reformers saw the schools as the logical place to inculcate democratic idealism. In the 1820s universal education was an idea held by only a few visionaries; within a generation, a majority of the states had bought into this idea. Aside from abolition, no other reform movement of the Jacksonian era had such success, and the key figure was Horace Mann. Born in Massachusetts in a Calvinist small town, Mann (1796-1859) had little formal education as a youth, but read a lot at the town library, where he learned enough to be admitted to Brown University. After graduation in 1819 he taught for a while, studied law and then entered politics, where he soon became a rising star in the state assembly. Then in 1835, he shocked family and friends by taking the job of secretary to the Massachusetts Commission to Improve Education (later the State Board of Education), an agency with no money or control over local schools.

    Extractions: Education of our Neuroradiology Fellows revolves around our excellent case material that accrues continuously, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The MGH is exceptionally strong in the clinical neurosciences and is consistently rated as one of the top 2 or 3 hospitals in this arena. In addition, we provide a series of specialized teaching conferences designed for the education of our fellows. There are numerous joint conferences held between ourselves and other clinical services designed for patient management which are also excellent for educational purposes. Clinical programs of the highest quality have been established at the MGH in acute stroke, neuro-oncology, skull base neoplasms, pediatric neurology, aneurysms and AVMs, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease and movement disorders. We are thus engaged with state-of-the-art approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of all major CNS diseases. Neuroimaging research at the MGH is at the forefront. Clinical applications of functional MRI, including diffusion and perfusion MRI, are more advanced than at any other institution. We are also active in developing clinical applications of MR spectroscopy. Our close working relationship with the MRI group makes possible these cutting-edge research efforts. In addition, active research programs in functional brain mapping, PET studies of neoplasms, and several projects in the interventional area are available for participation by fellows. We are leaders in the field of image guided stroke therapy.

Of equal importance, the impractical threshold of 20 LEP students in a single language group in a district should be relaxed. Furthermore, the law should be amended to require teachers of LEP children to demonstrate fluency in English and to allow placement of students in separate LEP classrooms only with the express and prior consent of their parents. Bilingual education, as it is commonly called, is a controversial issue throughout Massachusetts and the United States. At the heart of this controversy are three issues:

    http://www.edpolicy.org/publications/documents/testing.htm
    
    Extractions: Home Background: According to the Department of Education, the test of communication and literacy skills assessed the proficiency of candidates at a level required for a bachelor's degree, and the subject tests for specific certificates assessed proficiency and depth of understanding of the subject required for a baccalaureate major. In January, 1998, The Department of Education released the Question and Answer booklet on the Massachusetts Teacher Tests, which included a statement that candidates taking the test on April 4 and July 11 "will satisfy the testing requirements automatically". At the time of the first test administration, however, the cut score had not been determined. Four days later (July 6) the results were mailed out, along with a free admission form to the July 11 test for students who failed all or part of the exam, and on July 11, approximately 3000 students took the second offering of the certification exam. The scores from this second administration are expected by mid-August. Concerns: Before any interpretation or explanation of the high failure rate on the Teachers Tests can be offered, a number of concerns must be addressed. Since we cannot evaluate the content of the tests (comment cannot be made regarding the content until the content is made available - and actual questions and data regarding test answers have not been released), we must focus on the test process. When focusing on the administration of the test a number of flaws in the process become apparent. Many education professors, schools of education, and students may have been under the impression that the first two administrations of the test would be for statistical or normative purposes (such a process is typical in test development) and the fact that the
