CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION
Health Education
Delaware State Board of Education Administrative Code (2000) requires schools to provide instruction to students in grades K-12 in health education and to follow the Delaware Health Education Curriculum Framework (2001). Students in grades K-4 must receive a minimum of 30 hours of "comprehensive health education and family life education" in each grade, at least 10 of which must address drug/alcohol education. The health education requirement increases to 35 hours in grade 5 and grade 6, and a total 60 hours within grades 7 and 8, with 15 hours of drug/alcohol education provided in each grade. Administrative Code specifies that students receive 15 hours of instruction in drug/alcohol education during each grade of high school.
Administrative Code (2004) provides the formal approval of the state content standards in health education, which are embedded within the Delaware Health Education Curriculum Framework . This skills-based framework explicitly references the National Health Education Standards.
However, students are not required to pass a statewide assessment in health education.

Introduction
The Delaware Division of the Arts (DDOA) was created as a result of a change in legislation in 1989, having been established originally in 1969 as the Delaware State Arts Council. Throughout its history the Division has supported Delaware's cultural environment by providing grants and services to artists, arts organizations and others involved and interested in the arts. With a staff of 12 full- and part-time professionals, the Division, one of 7 within the Department of State, works out of the Carvel State Office Building in Wilmington. The Governor appoints up to 15 members to the DDOA's advisory council, the Delaware State Arts Council (DSAC). In addition, a Chair for this council also serves at the pleasure of the Governor. In writing this plan, DDOA staff enlisted the services of William Cleveland, Executive Director of Center for the Study of Art and Community, who led the process. The DDOA, under Cleveland's leadership, utilized open-space technology, a comprehensive process that included more than 500 clients and constituents in the planning; those who use, work with, work in or for, the arts. Public participants in focus groups and public meetings actually set the agendas for discussion centered on the focal question, "What Do the Arts Need to Thrive in Delaware?"

Assessment Conversations as a Tool for Reform
Paul G. LeMahieu University of Delaware and Delaware Department of Education Delaware Department of Education
W hat role might extended, open-ended tasks play in assessment? Through the good efforts of many individuals and the reform of large-scale assessment initiatives, we have begun to ask such questions. While there is yet much to be done to bring technical quality and intellectual rigor to this particular aspect of a more general reform movement, it is clear that we will never again think of assessment in precisely the same terms as those that have dominated our thinking for the past century or more. What is less certain is what role assessment should play in order to maximize its contribution to broader reform efforts. Some see assessment as an agent of reform, as a lever that, when properly applied, lifts the system (and the individuals within it) to improved performance by increasing accountability. This view is based on a well-established logic about the force and influence of assessment and accountability: clear articulation of goals will make public the expectations for individuals and the education system; appropriate and adequate assessments will reveal the performance of individuals, schools, and systems; and appropriate sanctions and rewards will provide the motivation to improve effectiveness and productivity. This "lever view" is plausible and quite possible. We are not too optimistic, however, about assessments (reformed or otherwise) used solely in this way and detect an underlying cynical assumption: that those who work in our schools have the skills and the capacities to help their students learn better, but for some reason choose not to do so. Our experience within schools does not support this cynical view. We have encountered some who (sad to say) lack the requisite familiarity with national, state, or local standards for student learning; more who have not had the opportunity to develop or refine the skills necessary to ensure their students' success; and still more who are constrained by a lack of intellectual or material support from their school districts or systems for the kinds of practice necessary to prefigure accomplishment of the standards. We have not encountered many who willfully choose not to perform well.

    Overview
    Education Development Center, Inc. (EDC) and the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), two long-established and high regarded non-profit organizations, are collaborating with State Education Agencies (SEAs) and two of the Regional Technology in Education Consortia (SEIRTEC and NEIRTEC) on a large-scale program that will enable SEAs to make effective use of online professional education to improve teacher quality, administrator quality, and student achievement, thereby helping them meet the primary goals of NCLB. This initiative includes the following inter-related and synergistic components. 1. The EdTech Leaders® Online program, The EdTech Leaders® Online program, developed by EDC, offers a comprehensive package of training, technical assistance, and resources to enable educational organizations to develop their capacity to offer effective online professional development. More than 700 individuals, from more than 60 SEAs, school districts and other organizations in 26 states, have participated in this program since its inception in 1999, and they, in turn, have provided online professional development workshops to more than 10,000 educators.

    Center Services > CEEE makes a distinction between technical assistance and professional development. Technical assistance is defined as support to organizations (e.g., state education departments, district central offices) to help them create coherent and aligned policies to improve teaching and learning. Professional development is assistance provided to individuals to build their knowledge and skills in content areas and instructional methodologies. CEEE's Technical assistance services are evidence-based and advance classroom instruction by helping educators acquire the individual and institutional capacity necessary to improve instructional practice and support school improvement strategies. In January 2005, the 15 Comprehensive Centers, reflecting on 9 years of providing technical assistance to states, districts, tribes, and schools across the country and within and across the various offices of the U.S. Department of Education, prepared a paper intended to inform the next generation of Comprehensive Centers. To be successful, technical assistance must acknowledge and respond adaptively to regional and state contexts, priorities, and policy needs. At state and district levels, technical assistance is designed to help educators, including regional service providers, act on local educational needs and support professional development aligned to NCLB. At the district and school levels, services focus on helping coaches, curriculum directors, and school leaders use teaching strategies to improve students' performance in content areas. (

    Promising Practices: New Ways to Improve Teacher Quality - September 1998
    The Induction of New Teachers
    Beginning teachers rarely make smooth transitions into teaching. Often they are hired at the last moment, left isolated in their classrooms, and given little helpa true example of the "sink or swim" attitude toward those newly hired. Consequently, attrition rates among new teachers often are five times higher than among experienced teachers. Improved induction programs need to give all teachers, whether new or experienced, considerable support. In the first three years, schools and universities should focus on assisting and supporting new teachers rather than simply assessing their work. Comprehensive induction programs should provide new teachers the necessary models and tools for beginning their teaching careers, as well as the mentors and support groups to guide them through curriculum planning. Mentors for new teachers should be assigned reduced teaching schedules so that they have time to provide support. Induction programs should provide specific guidance aimed at helping new teachers meet performance standards for continued certification. At the end of three years, assessment of teachers' performance is critical. The evaluation should be based on rigorous, widely accepted standards for granting tenure and should involve administrators and teachers.
