TOPEKA CAPITAL JOURNAL March 22, 2001, Thursday LENGTH: 813 words HEADLINE: Seaman students show off skills in academic odyssey BYLINE: JOHN E. CHAMBERS Capital-Journal BODY: Performances, science demonstrations and other displays part of SHS event. See SEAMAN, page 10 Seaman - John E. Chambers/Special to The Capital-Journal By JOHN E. CHAMBERS Special to The Capital-Journal NORTH TOPEKA - Some visitors to Seaman High School's bi-annual academic fair on March 14 were treated to relief from a cold winter rain when they stepped into the school's greenhouse with its growing plants and bright blooms. The greenhouse tours were just part of departmental demonstrations and exhibits of Seaman students' talents and projects that were offered to parents and the public during "2001: An Academic Odyssey," the school's second bi-annual academic fair. Highlights of the evening included musical performances, role plays, History Day projects, and other demonstrations and displays. Also featured again this year was Jumpin' Jivin' Java Joint, which had poetry readings and literary performances. The SHS greenhouse is used for teaching one-semester classes in greenhouse production and for teaching botany classes. The greenhouse course fulfills student requirements for one of two laboratory science courses. Guiding the greenhouse tours were instructor Larry Wall and student Lisa Lasch, a junior. Lasch showed her project, growing water plants in a clear ornamental jar, to which she intends to add a goldfish.

Richard Culatta's Blog Notes on multimedia design and educational technology WideOpenDoors Home Main Blog Page November 17, 2004 Asking Questions :: Getting the right people on the bus In Katherine Cennamo and Debby Kalk’s book “Real World Instructional Design”, they highlight the importance of asking the right questions. This should be one of the strongest attributes of an instructional designer. I first learned the importance of asking good questions when I was supervising a technical support team for American Power Conversion at their headquarters in Rhode Island. I learned that the ammount of time and frustration that can be saved by asking the right questions can be enourmous (and yes, all of those stories about the questions that tech support people get are true). From that point on, I made it a goal to become a better “question asker”. When it comes to instructional design, there is a question that, in my opinion, is the most important designer to ask. That question is… “Do we have the right people on the bus?” The “bus” is whatever project you are working on at the time. The analogy comes from Jim Collins’ book

84. Past Exhibits From The Tang On extended loan to the Tang Teaching Museum from a private collection This exhibition will use the quirky cartoons of rube goldberg, drawn in the first http://www.skidmore.edu/tang/inaugural_exhibits/inaugural.htm

A Very Liquid Heaven Organized by Mary Crone-Odekon, associate professor of Physics, and Margo Mensing, associate professor of Art, Skidmore College. In his Principles of Philosophy of 1644, Rene Descartes described the earth as surrounded on all sides by a very liquid heaven. Although later discoveries discredited this idea, in a sense Descartes was on target. Modern astronomy reveals stars not as hard, fixed objects, but as pulsing plasmas, and interstellar space not as pure void, but as diffuse clouds of atoms and molecules. This exhibit will feature historical artifacts, star charts, maps, globes, and photographs of astronomical bodies, as well as recent art by Kiki Smith, Russell Crotty, John Torreano, Bill Viola, and Sebastian Romo, among others. Additionally, three performances of Music for a Summer Evening: Makrokosmos III (a work for two pianos and a wide array of percussion instruments, composed by George Crumb) will open the exhibition. The performances, featuring Skidmore faculty musicians and a dance choreographed and performed by Debra Fernandez, will take place on October 14, 15, and 17. Organized by Associate Professor of Physics, Mary Crone-Odekon, Associate Professor of Art, Margo Mensing, and Tang Curator, Ian Berry. The project is supported by Larry and Beverly St. Clair, Wellesley, Massachusetts, and the Friends of the Tang.

Fifth Grade News Click here to see a video of our recent Rube Goldberg demonstrations in the theatre. Thanks to Laura Z.'s family for shooting this great video of our projects! Fifth Grade Curriculum English The goal in fifth grade English is to help children become more confident, thoughtful readers and expressive and versatile writers. Reading instruction is built largely around chapter books or novels, with a careful examination of character, setting, plot, and theme through both discussion and writing. Short stories, myths, poetry, and nonfiction are also read, and many selections are tied to learning in social studies. Students are encouraged to make and share personal reading choices through a year-long independent reading project. A variety of writing experiences, including stories, essays, journals, retellings and poems, give children opportunities to take their talents as writers in different directions. Spelling, grammar, and vocabulary building are taught as subskills which support growth as readers and writers. Social Studies Pacific Rim I Mathematics Science This science course provides a laboratory experience through a variety of investigations that develop observational, manual, cooperative, and analytic skills. The use of the scientific inquiry method is emphasized. Lab topics include chemical reactions, designing and building simple machines, animal adaptation, and model rocketry.
