Magazine ; Spring, 2005; by Dirk Koning Instead of letting television define their reality, the kids in Grand Rapids are using community access equipment to tell their stories and put a new spin on their classroom studies Over the past 25 years, hundreds of teens and adults have discovered that if you're not making television, it's making you. They've had this epiphany while volunteering at the Community Media Center's public-access station, GRTV , in Grand Rapids, Michigan. As they learned to angle a camera for a different perspective, edit for a desired effect, or schedule a broadcast to reach a certain audience, they realized that, all their lives—for good and for ill—television has been shaping their thinking, molding their culture, and persuading their purchases. Now instead they are the puppeteers. Several are continuing to learn through the Center's . At teachers' requests, MoLLIE brings digital video cameras and laptops with editing software to grade and middle schools throughout the city. It's about replacing reports and dioramas with curriculum-based video presentations conceived, scripted, acted, costumed, staged, produced, filmed, and edited by teams of three to five students. It's about teaching kids to make TV and engaging their families with their schools when their MoLLIE video airs on GRTV's MoLLIE Matinee. It's mostly about fun, but it's also about helping kids experience the power of media to shape another's perspective. They get the message on many levels. It starts when they see a first cut and wonder why on screen they don't look or sound like they thought they would. In later takes, they become conscious of their enunciation, volume, gestures, and facial expressions. In learning to communicate more effectively through media, they are learning to listen more critically to media. They shoot a story out of sequence or cheat a shot to make themselves look smaller or taller, and come to understand that the media they watch have been similarly manipulated to capture and shape their attention. They have an outlet for their creativity and can make literal their acting out. This past fall, for instance, two eighth-grade boys were forced to endure a class trip to a local production at the Grand Rapids Ballet. Their teacher was mortified when the boys mockingly imitated the dancers both in the theatre and on the bus trip home. Two weeks later, MoLLIE came to help the kids make mini-documentaries on earth science. The two boys chose to chronicle a volcanic eruption—through dance. While they achieved their goal of making everyone, including their teacher, laugh at their antics, they simultaneously demonstrated their complete mastery of volcanism, and, ironically, interpretive dance. In another recent instance, MoLLIE teamed with the Media Center's GRIID (Grand Rapids Institute for Information Democracy) to develop and deliver their own curriculum on media literacy and voting. GRIID targeted an elementary school in a neighborhood that had traditionally low voter registration and turn-out. MoLLIE worked with fourth and fifth graders to help them produce videos on voting, American history, and relevant political issues. They invited a staff person from the city clerk's office to an evening celebration in which parents came to view their children's videos. At their children's urging, more than 40 parents registered to vote for the first time. ... YES! Magazine ; Spring 2005

There are documents from a number of countries. There are also links to articles in professional journals and newspapers that are based on these documents. This page is intended to help school librarians to answer the question, "Do school libraries make a difference?". School Libraries Work! This is a Research Foundation Paper published by Scholastic Library Publishing; it brings together research findings from almost ten years of school library-related research. The preface notes, "A substantial body of research since 1990 clearly demonstrates the importance of school libraries to students' education. Whether student achievement is measured by standardized reading achievement tests or by global assessments of learning, research shows that a well-stocked library staffed by a certified library media specialist has a positive impact on student achievement, regardless of the socio-economic or educational levels of the community."

Current News Michigan Sea Grant Study Shows Water Flow Management In Michigan Aiding In Salmon, Trout Recovery Editor's Note: Ensuring the survival of migratory fish that spawn up stream is an issue of increasing concern. Yesterday (3/16) NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service announced that nine more species of salmon in the Puget Sound watershed would be listed as endangered or threatened. Dam operations, combining with heavy fishing pressure, are making such fish increasingly candidates for listing on threatened or endangered lists. While such listings of endangered salmon runs in the Pacific Northwest have generated a great deal of attention, the issue is also being faced in the Great Lakes region. NOAA Sea Grant research is showing that changes in water flow management and dam water draw operations could provide significant payoffs. River fluctuated dramatically each day - ranging from 10-year floods to drought conditions. The variation was caused by hydropower dam operations known as peak flow management, a practice that permits the periodic release of large amounts of water. Studies have shown that such erratic flows can cause aquatic organisms to alternately become stranded or swept downstream, negatively impacting the fish that rely on them for food. On the Manistee, a major Lake Michigan tributary, relief came in 1989. Peak flow management was abandoned in favor of a less-disruptive practice known as run-of-river flow management. Water was allowed to flow naturally through the Tippy and Hodenpyl dams as a result of terms specified in new hydropower licenses. Today, a decade later, the change is beginning to pay off. Researchers at the University of Michigan and Michigan State University, funded in part by NOAA's Michigan Sea Grant Program, have found that survival of young chinook salmon in the Manistee has increased dramatically since the late 1980s in response to a stable water flow.

T ip Sheets August 2002 Lake Erie "Dead Zone" Causes May Lie With Aquatic Invaders And Run-off The combination of aquatic nuisance species, agriculture run-off, warm temperatures and low water levels may be creating increased frequency and expanding the area of an anoxic "dead zone" in Lake Erie, according to Ohio Sea Grant and EPA researchers. In Lake Erie's "dead zone," researchers are working to determine the causes of what has become an annual summer occurrence. Called a "dead zone" because its oxygen level falls below that which can support aquatic animals, the phosphorus-rich water threatens the health of the lake's ecosystem. Ohio Sea Grant and the U.S. EPA's Great Lakes National Program Office supported a graduate student Great Lakes limnology course and research cruise this summer, during which Ohio State University researcher David Culver directed water quality analysis of the lake's nutrient levels and experiments to determine zebra and quagga mussels' phosphorus excretion rates. The zebra mussel invaded Lake Erie first, but recent results show that quagga mussels have outcompeted them in all three basins. Culver's preliminary results showed that both mussels excreted phosphorus, but the quagga mussel excreted more than equivalent-sized zebra mussels. The results suggest that both zebra and quagga mussels recycle phosphorus, and as their populations continue to grow, so will high levels of phosphorus that contribute to Lake Erie's "dead zone." Human contributions to high phosphorus levels and the ensuing "dead zone" have plagued Lake Erie for many years. Increased phosphorus inputs stimulate overgrowth of algae. In the 1960s and 1970s, tens of thousands of tons of phosphorus from sewage plants and other sources were dumped in the lake, causing the entire lake to be declared "dead" as oxygen was eliminated from up to 90% of the bottom waters of the lake in the central basin area. But extensive cleanup efforts since then have reduced the amount of phosphorus entering the lake to about 11,000 metric tons a year.
