Agencies often do not know what other service providers are doing, what services are already being provided, or what information is already available to help understand a student's needs. In many schools across the country, leaders are helping develop collaboration between schools and other agencies and

Extractions: New Jersey's Office of Telecommunications and Information Systems was founded by executive order in 1984 to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the telecommunications and information technology used in state government. The state's telecommunications connections are provided by the Garden State Network, a leased system. New Jersey is relying on private industry to build its hub on the information highway. Although New Jersey has long-standing ties with the telecommunications industry, its infrastructure and use of telecommunications applications for government and education providers appear minimal at this time. A request for proposal was issued in August 1995 for distance learning, video teleconferencing equipment, and support services. Many New Jersey counties, towns, and cities have developed websites to inform users about events in their areas and to attract business. The Department of Insurance has posted an extensive set of information about its office, filing claims, and tips on buying health and life insurance. The Department of Human Services uses the Garden State Network to support its Income Eligibility and Verification System.

They suggest you reduce the number of breaks, control scheduling wherever you can (pull-out programs, lunch breaks, extracurricular planning time, outside interruptions, unexpected visitors), by scheduling solid instructional blocks, and creating smooth transitions between lessons. Delegating routine tasks to aides, volunteers, and students can be a valuable time-saver.

Extractions: A landmark legal trial will begin Monday that could influence how the theory of evolution is taught in U.S. schools. Eleven parents of students who attend or are planning to attend Dover High School in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, along with the American Civil Liberties Union are suing the Dover Area School District. The parents claim the school board violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment by creating new teaching requirements that cast doubt on evolution, introduce students to intelligent design, and encourage them to read anti-evolutionary material that promotes intelligent design. A verdict is expected in December. Imagine creating a W-shaped tool with a center that hooks on a nail and two sides that push it together to pull it out smoothly. Consider the creation of a pulley system to help a parent when they lean over the side of their wheelchair. These creations are the efforts of the two top winners in this years Craftsman/NSTA Young Inventors Awards Program. The two top winners and 10 national finalists will be recognized for their efforts at an awards ceremony on Sept. 26 at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. Visitors to college campuses cant help but ask the question: Where are the boys? Currently, 135 women receive bachelors degrees for every 100 men. That gender imbalance will widen in the coming years, according to a new report by the U.S. Department of Education. But the inequity has yet to provoke the kind of response that finally opened opportunities for women a generation ago. In fact, virtually no one is exploring the obvious questions: What has gone wrong? And what happens to all the boys who are not in college?
