Extractions: The goal of the Pre-Service Teacher (PST) Internships project is to enhance the nation's source of proficient teachers of K-12 science, mathematics, and technology. The Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL) provides ten-week summer research appointments for pre-service teachers who plan to teach mathematics, science or technology in K-12 schools. PST is a partnership between the Department of Energy (DOE) and the INEEL to: During the summer the pre-service teachers are immersed in clearly defined research experiences at DOE national laboratories. The pre-service teachers are mentored by a master teacher and mentor scientists at the INEEL to maximize the development of content, knowledge, and skills. The students participate in research 80 percent of the time and, the remaining 20 percent of the time, are involved in workshops with the master teacher, attend seminars, and pursue their individual project assignments. The master teacher assists the pre-service teachers in translating their research experiences into inquiry-based K-12 educational modules that are aligned with national science standards.

A high-school diploma or GED will not be sufficient for most high-tech jobs, but graduating from high school is a critical stepping stone leading to college and perhaps graduate school. In a technology-based economy, high-school graduation rates should ideally be very high to prepare as many students as possible for higher education.

Extractions: November 1997 A The package, published by NWRELs Northwest Educational Technology Consortium (NETC), contains the following items: Networking Issues The benefits of networking are many, the CD reports. Sharing files, applications, and printers are the prime advantages, along with e-mail and access to library materials and Internet resources. But the plusses can be undermined by the many pitfalls schools face when they begin to network. The CD identifies the top six problems educators confront in the world of computer networking: (1) unequal knowledge among staff; (2) inappropriate match of technology and objectives; (3) no clear instructional focus for use of technology; (4) no annual technology budget; (5) poor technology inventory; (6) few staff development activities. Schools can overcome the pitfalls in large part by paying attention to what the CD calls the "human side of the technology equation." Schools should attend to the human side by recognizing that: A theme stressed on the CD is the idea of "classrooms without walls." Networks can break down barriers for both teachers and students, the CD maintains. About teachers, it says, "Electronic communication through networks can transcend the walls of isolation that can so often shape the teaching profession, and allow teachers to converse and share experiences with colleagues, school administrators, parents, and experts in the field."
Extractions: January 26, 1998 From comprehending the complexities of reading to gaining a laypersons understanding of wiring for computer networks, the Northwest Regional Educational Laboratory has recently produced and made available a wide array of products. With the recent emphasis on helping all children to read by the third grade, and engaging parents and community members in the process, Building a Knowledge Base in Reading is a way for educators and others to take a look at how children acquire language and literacy. Drawing on the conclusions of researchers and the expertise of teachers, the report presents an argument for teaching reading skills within a meaningful context, and takes into account the role of phonics in the reading process. The report is jointly published by the Laboratory, the National Council of Teachers of English, and the International Reading Association. A publication about reading that is geared specifically to parents, Tips for Parents About Reading , provides guidelines about what children typically can do at certain ages and stages of reading development, titles of childrens favorite books, and a list of resources for parents and a glossary of reading terms.
Extractions: Remember, it is critical that your project matches the funder's guidelines. You will waste both your time and the grant-maker's if you submit a proposal that does not match the grantor's funding initiatives. The SchoolGrants focus is primarily schools within the United States. There are, however, often opportunities available that extend to our Canadian neighbors. Most of such opportunities are found on the Nationwide Opportunities pages. If you know of opportunities that are not listed on the SchoolGrants site, we would appreciate you letting me know about them! It is the SchoolGrants goal to provide as many opportunities as possible to benefit our Nation's children and their schools. This is only possible with your help and assistance.
