    From Office to Classroom
    Actuaries Spark Students' Love of Math
    By Linda Heacox One day a month, a class full of Boston school children in one of the worst drug- and gang-infested neighborhoods in the city wait excitedly for the arrival of a group of buttoned-down professionals from the city's business district. In Atlanta, the retired founder of one of the world's largest consulting firms packs up his briefcase with math toys and games and heads to a local elementary school each week. In Los Angeles, an actuary at one of the state's largest health insurance providers powers up his PC to tutor, via computer, children in Chino, Calif. In Appleton, Wis., high school students are learning the basics of personal money management from actuary volunteers who visit their schools. And in rural Alberta, Canada, students in the far-flung regions of the province open a crate packed with math games, toys, books, and curricula. Similar scenes are occurring in city and rural schools in other parts of North America as actuaries apply their professional expertise to real life problems. All of these math education programs are funded by the Actuarial Foundation, and though the organization has contributed nearly $370,000 to schools, its most important contribution may be the volunteers who work one-on-one with students, teachers, and parents. The program, Advancing Student Achievement, is the first and largest of the Foundation's public outreach programs. In it, actuaries tutor, teach classes, coach teams of kids participating in math competitions, and mentor children who need scholastic, and sometimes personal, guidance.

    by Ronda Evans and Bruce McComb The Columbia Basin Public Information Network (CBPIN)
    is a RECA Foundation program since 1994. Founding members have created a sustainable Community Network known as The Columbia Free-Net (TCFN). Franklin County provides dial-up phone lines, space, power and networking expertise; BOSS Internet Group (a commercial ISP) provides free Internet service; and the Mid-Columbia Library (MCL) System provides a wide area network connecting 11 sites in 3 counties, with free local dial up access. The MCL and the TCFN are interconnected so that citizens can travel freely from one system to the other. The Columbia Free-Net provides free e-mail to all residents, community information and resources, and free web pages for non-commercial organizations.
    The Columbia Free-Net (TCFN) reaches throughout four counties providing community information and free e-mail services. The library has seen an increase of 20% participation yearly since Internet access has been provided. The Free-Net has seen over 4,000 new users.
    Other CBPIN Programs Community Technology Centers : Affiliated with the international Community Technology Centers' Network (CTCNet), 5 CTCs were established in 1997. Each site was selected based upon their commitment to provide services to a targeted [have-not] population, providing staff, support, space, and commitment to integrate the computer technology centers into their current programs.

    • The telementoring program began in Ft. Collins, CO in 1994. Mr. David Neils had some of his friends join him in mentoring kids in the science and math areas via e-mail. The project was very successful so Mr. Neils decided to expand the program. The program has served over 16,000 kids. Telementoring provides encouragement for kids that are working on academic projects. It enhances their learning ability. Telementoring gives students an outside source to information and the confidence to succeed. Some students are very smart, but they don't have the support to use their fullest potential. Many students have problems with understanding a school subject and never address it. By using telementoring, those students have someone to communicate with about their problem(s).

    The Osgood File (CBS Radio Network): 8/15/97
    Printer-friendly version E-mail this story to a friend Making a difference in the lives of children one email at a time. Participants in the Presidential Summit of 1997 called on Americans to volunteer to improve the lives of children. However, only about five percent of people actually give their time as mentors or tutors to kids. A partnership between Hewlett Packard and elementary schools aims to change that. Hewlett Packard's email e-mentoring program is one of many "virtual volunteering" programs springing up across the country, allowing adults to tutor a children over the Internet using email. Hewlett Packard's mentoring program links employees with over 1500 students. One such program is takes place at Schallenberger Elementary School in San Jose, California. Under a teacher's supervision, virtual volunteers spend approximately 30 minutes a week mentoring fifth through 12th graders in primarily math and science. The benefit to the tutor is obvious – it allows the adult to mentor on his or her own time, from home or work, any time of the day, sometimes for just a few minutes a day. Mentors also help students see the relevance that their coursework has to potential future careers. Jill Prober, a teacher at Schallenberger, says adult involvement either via the Internet or face- to-face, benefits her students. Critics, however, contend that this virtual relationship is not enough. Nora Silver, the San Francisco delegate to the Presidential Summit in April of 1998, is not sure that virtual volunteering is the answer to the Presidential Summit's call to change the lives of children. She feels that an online relationship does not substitute or answer the need for adult mentors for children.

    What is mentoring? Mentoring is a relationship in which a knowledgeable, usually older person, aids a less knowledgeable and usually younger person to better understand how to perform in a new job or a new community of practice. This aid includes not only training in required skills, but also help in getting along with others in the community and appreciating and living up to the values and norms of a new role. Unlike a typical training relationship, the mentoring relationship is a reciprocal one, meaning that both the mentor and mentee benefit developmentally. The benefits for mentees may sometimes be more obvious than those for mentors, but the mentoring relationship also provides mentors with a sense of their own maturity, validation of their professional abilities, and the reward of seeing those that they have helped succeed. In some cases, what starts off as a relationship between unequal partners turns into a friendship, with strong mutual respect. What is telementoring?
