Extractions: Summary of Accomplishments 2002 INTRODUCTION The fact that "Urban" Extension is catching on from the bustling cities of northern America to quieter southern plains should come as no surprise to anyone. Extension has a rich history of serving agricultural communities, rural families, and youth. But that role is changing as land-grant universities create new and nontraditional programs to address the needs of expanding urban populations across the country. Alabama is no exception! The 2000 Census data reveals that the state experienced a 70% growth in its urban population compared to over 60% in 1990. Shifts in population and the associated family, community and environmental concerns are now global issues. Worldwide, urban areas are expected to surpass rural areas in population by 2005, and Alabama's Extension System is prepared! Operating in its fifth year as a fully functioning base program unit of the Alabama Cooperative Extension System, Urban Affairs and New Nontraditional Programs, entered the year 2002 with a new four-year cycle of goals and objectives. The 2002-2005 Plan of Work was developed in conjunction with priority areas designed to meet the needs of a growing urban population. 2002-2005 PROGRAM GOALS Focus on urban youth development by providing social, economic, health, leadership, citizenship, and volunteerism programs designed to empower urban youth to reach their fullest potential as positive and contributing members of a diverse society.
Starting In The Middle 2000 A student health fair is held each year so students can meet people and an extra team planning preparation period to explore teaching based on concepts. http://www.nwrel.org/ecc/middle_2000/emmett_1.html
Extractions: Emmett, Idaho The city of Emmett is located 25 miles northwest of Boise. Our community's economy is changing from wood products and agriculture to light manufacturing and service occupations. Many of our residents work in nearby cities. Many longtime business owners and nonprofit groups participate in the development of the community. Emmett Middle School has a population of 815 students in grades 5-8. Our day includes seven 45-minute periods. This schedule allows teacher teams a common planning period. Administrative and support personnel meet weekly with the faculty teams. Emmett Middle School is facing several changes. In the fall of the year 2000, the fifth and sixth grades will be leaving the building, and a ninth grade will join the seventh and eighth grades. A majority of the staff would like to see a switch to block scheduling and the addition of another prep period for team planning of curriculum and concepts to work on as a building. Educators and community members would like to see Character Education implemented by next year, and we are finding that our integrated learning unit ties nicely into that. Team teachers select a concept to be integrated into all classes while focusing on the topics and skills that best relate to their discipline. The team takes a conceptual approach to the unit in order to involve more content areas and extracurricular classes. We hope to engage the students in learning that is both personally relevant and developmentally appropriate.

BA (Hons) Urban And Environmental Planning Work experience does not have to be within a planning field. In addition, day visits and week field study trips are an integral part of the course and http://www.lsbu.ac.uk/ahsuel/courses/undergrad/urbanenvironmentalplanning.shtml
Extractions: The underlying principle of the Course is that good planning is an essential part of a healthy, fair, safe and attractive society and environment. Planning is necessary to manage change to satisfy the living and working needs of the population. Its processes help to ensure participatory and accountable decision making in land use and development matters. The course primarily meets the needs of people wishing to pursue professional careers in urban and environmental planning. But is also provides a stimulating and wide-ranging urban and environmental academic education. In addition, it enables students to pursue post-graduate study should they wish to do so. If you wish to qualify for RTPI membership, which most of our graduates do, you must complete the 4th year professional diploma. But if you leave after completing only the degree, you will find your education and training useful in the planning, development and environmental job markets as well as those areas which recruit from a wide range of graduates.

Extractions: What is SAP? Upcoming Expedition Previous Expeditions Support the Project ... Contact Us What is the Stanford Alpine Project? The Stanford Alpine Project (SAP) is a student-run organization affiliated with the Associated Students of Stanford University (ASSU) at Stanford University . We are based in the School of Earth Sciences , which includes the Department of Geophysics , and Department of Petroleum Engineering The aim of SAP is to introduce students interested in Earth Sciences to spectacular geologic locations around the world. This is accomplished by the organization of biennial field trips motivated by a geology theme. Each field trip is of two to three weeks in duration and involves a detailed itinerary that introduces participants to the geology of the area being visited. Each day is spent visiting geologic outcrops and interacting with local geologic experts. In fact, the ultimate goal is to find a local geologist to lead each day of the field trip to permit the greatest understanding of the geology as possible. Each field trip is conceived, organized and implemented by the students themselves. This is quite a considerable undertaking, and generally involves a two year planning period. There are many facets of the trip that need to be organized, including fundraising, logistical preparations, and itinerary development. The participants have to familiarize themselves with the geology of the planned trip location in order that all the important geology sites are included in the itinerary. Much effort is then put into communicating with local geologists to see if they can guide us for a portion of the trip. Fundraising is a crucial aspect of trip planning. The aim of SAP is to subsidize the cost per person to the greatest extent possible. In this way, Earth Science students are afforded the opportunity to visit a geologic location in the world that they otherwise may never have the chance to visit.
