Using Video Of A Master Farmer To Teach Others 3. PEOPLE INVOLVEMENT. 2. activities. There are masters in many fields who haveimportant things to share and teach. Research herds verify genetic theory. http://www.joe.org/joe/1999april/rb1.html
Extractions: Internet address: polson.1@osu.edu Many enjoy visiting with a "master" of something in which they are intensely interested. Chances are, this "master" had their rapt attention. If they were fortunate, this person took them under his or her wing and told them their trade secrets. Some of the advice may have stayed with them throughout their lives. Unfortunately much of what is shared orally is lost. Until recently it hasn't been easy to capture such experiences in their entirety and pass them on to others. A team of Ohio Extension agents and specialists recently spent a morning with a "master" farmer. His 600 cows produce as much milk per cow as any herd in the country. He has not always been a milk producer. He has adopted a number of practices that many traditional producers have never considered. He lives in a remote area of northern New York which makes it difficult for others to see firsthand what he is doing. Fortunately, a specialist captured the entire interview using a video camera and wireless microphone. He did some minor editing to the video, duplicated it, and shared it with a number of Ohio milk producers with surprising results. The reaction of Ohio milk producers to the video greatly exceeded expectations. Sixty-nine percent of the producers who borrowed the video adopted one or more new practices they saw on it. Every milk producer was able to identify an important piece of information learned as a result of watching it. Several weeks after they watched it almost three-fourths of the producers were still able to identify additional specific practices they were considering adopting. More than half of the producers watched the entire two hour video twice or more.

Join The OCA For The WTO Teach-ins & Protests In Cancun Mexico people, will include experts on genetic engineering and in a wide array of activities,including the International Forum on Globalization s teachIn on http://www.organicconsumers.org/corp/0624_wto.cfm
Extractions: Homepage In 1999, the Organic Consumers Association (OCA) helped organize protests and teach-ins against the World Trade Organization (WTO) in Seattle. The "Battle of Seattle", as it came to be known, was the coming of age of the global grassroots in its attempt to stop the headlong rush of corporate globalization. Now you have the opportunity to join OCA director Ronnie Cummins and other OCA staff on an escorted delegation to the historic teach-ins and protests against the WTO in Cancun, Mexico. Thousands of concerned citizens from North and South America, Africa, Europe, and Asia are expected to converge on Cancun, including leading farm, food, Fair Trade, and anti-GE activists. They'll attend a wide range of workshops, forums, and cultural events. Following up on the theme of the World Social Forum in Porto Alegre, Brazil, "Another World is Possible," the emphasis in Cancun will be on presenting alternatives to corporate globalization. Organizers emphasize that public events will be strictly non-violent, and that any civil disobedience protests will be organized separately from the teach-ins and educational workshops.

Extractions: Biotechnology Classroom Activities These activities were assembled by teachers participating in summer Biotechnology workshops at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls, 1991-1996. They were designed to be used in the participants' classes, but we hope that others will find them useful. The activities are intended to be as classroom-ready as possible, including sources of materials and information about content background, timing, and assessment. We are in the process of field testing the activities, so that they can be modified or corrected if necessary. The activities are listed below. Those with an HTML and/or PDF icon can be downloaded from this page. We are converting the remaining activities as quickly as we can. Fermentation in the Food Industry: An Introduction to Biotechnology HTML PDF This activity will introduce the students to fermentation as well as provide hands on experience with a variety of food fermentation processes. In this exercise, students will study fermentation as a natural biological process and also its implicatio ns in the food and agricultural industries. Group projects incorporate an inquiry based lab, personal journal, and class presentation of research.

Extractions: High School Biology The purpose of this activity is to demonstrate to the biology student that the cell is not a static object. It is a complex functioning unit carrying on those activities necessary for life. This unit will emphasize the role of nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) and cell organelles within the cell as interrelated cooperating and functioning components dependent upon one another for the survival of the whole. The students will be able to demonstrate a working knowledge of cell interactions such as DNA replication, protein synthesis (transcription and translation), through active participation in a cooperative group. This unit will follow the unit in which the students have learned the structures and functions of the cell organelles and cell dynamics. This unit will include instruction in DNA replication, transcription, and translation. The test at the end of the unit will be one in which the students become a living working cell within the confines of the classroom. LESSONS

Extractions: The Department of Medical Genetics at The University of Tennessee Graduate School of Medicine was created to offer the opportunity to expand the clinical, academic, and research opportunities in this rapidly developing discipline. Medical Genetics is changing the way doctors practice medicine. Genetics is no longer a subspecialty within other disciplines focusing on rare single gene disorders. During the decade of the 90's it became a medical specialty recognized by the AMA. Recently the role of genetics has expanded to all areas of medicine. Primary care physicians and other specialists need to understand genes and gene interaction with the environment to manage many patients with common disorders. The explosion of genetic knowledge and daily discovery of new genes linked to diseases is communicated to the public through the media, the Internet, support groups and advertising. Patients now expect that physicians will be able to help them determine what is valid and what is misleading or inaccurate. The goals of the department are: To apply new research developments in this field to clinical practice.

DNA fingerprinting is evaluated in terms of privacy issues. Knappers and Chadwick's 5 Basic Principles Regarding Ethical or Legal Norms of the Human Genome Project are discussed. Bioethics: Debates in the Science Classroom Debates in the Biology class?! Absolutely! Incorporating performance assessment activities such as debate, mock trial, and parody allow the "non-science" student chances to excel. Bioethical decision-making is a perfect classroom tool. Biotechnology Education Program The Biotechnology Education Program is a two-three week multidisciplinary, spiraled curriculum that exposes entire high schools to the issues involved/or brought about by improvements in biotechnology. Math, English, Social Science, and Science lessons have been written by teachers to explore themes over a given year. This was developed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
