Extractions: Call for Proposals The goals of the Science and Technology Agreement are to strengthen the scientific and technological capabilities of the United States and Egypt, to broaden and expand relations between the extensive scientific and technological communities in both countries, and to promote scientific and technological cooperation in areas of mutual benefit for peaceful purposes. The activities of the Agreement are supported by a Joint Fund, which totals $3 million per year. Priority Areas for Research Grants: Cooperative activities may include coordinated and joint research projects, studies, and investigations; exchange of science and technology information and documentation in the context of cooperative activities; exchange of scientists, specialists, and researchers; exchanges or sharing of equipment or materials; and other forms of scientific and technological cooperation as may be agreed by the Joint Board. Implementation of these activities may include, inter alia, the following modalities:

Extractions: Get It Together: Math Problems for Groups, Grades 4-12 With over 100 mathematics problems, this collection is designed for use with cooperative groups. Each activity provides six clue cards, each of which gives a piece of information that will help solve the group problem. Interactive sharing from each cardholder is essential to find an answer. The book covers a variety of mathematical topics including numbers and operations, logic, geometry, probability, measurement and functions. Each topic area includes activities of varying difficulty, and a handy grid at the back of the book matches grade levels and topics with activities. The book also offers advice on using cooperative learning in the classroom. Available from:

Extractions: How ALERT Has Contributed to My Professional Development How Has ALERT Contributed to My Professional Mission and/or Activities? The collaboration between CSU ALERT campuses comes in many forms. Through our meetings, discussions and web pages, we have been able to see what is being done in earth science education at the various campuses. We all have our own specialties, and through these interactions, we have been able to share our knowledge and resources with each other. This sharing has enabled me to use activities developed on other campuses in my own classes, thus often finding a better way to present some concepts. In return, we have developed instructional aids that may be useful to our sister campuses. ALERT project has helped our efforts to disseminate GIS and remote sensing data over the Internet. ALERT has given us the opportunity to share ideas with our CSU colleagues, which would probably not have occurred without these interactions.

Extractions: Cluster EGeology 302 Home Cluster E Meetings Science Unit Meeting Times Course Objectives ... Student Assignments Summary of Grant Activities The goal of Cluster E was to create a standards-based, technology-enhanced Earth Science course for pre-service teachers that used best practices and integrated pedagogy into the science course. The cluster's activities can be broken down into four distinct goals: Curriculum Reform in Teacher Preparation Cluster E, in conjunction with the Science Service Unit, conducted a study that determined the current menu format of meeting science requirements for elementary and middle school pre-service teachers is insufficient to adequately prepare these future teachers to teach the science curriculum in the classroom. Therefore, the cluster devised a proposal, with supporting documentation from literature and based on an analysis of CATS test scores for K-12 students in Kentucky, to require all elementary education majors and all middle grade education majors with science emphasis to complete the four inquiry-based science courses: Biology for Teachers, Chemistry for Teachers, Earth Science for Teachers and Physics for Teachers. That proposal was held up due to a need for an analysis of financial impact to the university to implement the proposal. Technology Training
