    Extractions: Poster Abstracts ... Presentations Preparing the Future STEM Faculty: Program Overviews University of Oklahoma: College of Engineering and College of Education Authentic Teaching Alliance (ATA) www.coe.ou.edu/ata Dr. Mark Nanny nanny@ou.edu Program Description To date, over 20 "teacher-ready" ATA activities, focusing on physical science, chemistry, biology, and mathematics, are posted on the ATA web site ( www.coe.ou.edu/ata ). Moreover, these lessons are aligned with the State of Oklahoma's education standards (PASS skills). ATA's goal with respect to these lessons is not to create totally new curriculum, but rather to demonstrate how to teach secondary science and mathematics in an authentic manner. Creating authentic lessons is not trivial; the students' background, culture, environment, and interests must be well understood, respected and appreciated. In order to facilitate this level of understanding and appreciation for secondary students among ATA teachers and Fellows, the ATA teachers and Fellows work closely together as a team for at least one to two semesters. To date, ATA has interacted with 11 science teachers, 5 mathematics teachers, and 1 technology teacher, while reaching approximately 1400 students, in 2 middle and 8 secondary schools, with truly authentic instruction. Graduate Fellows spend approximately twenty hours per week on this program. Undergraduate Fellows spend approximately fifteen hours per week on this program. Both graduate and undergraduate fellows spend ten of their hours in K-12 classrooms. Managing the program is a full-time job (40 hours per week) for the project coordinator and also includes approximately ten hours a week from the principle investigator.

    Extractions: Oklahoma OneNet, Inc. Oklahoma Municipal Services Corporation (OMSC) Broadband Deregulation In 2002, the Oklahoma state House passed a regulatory parity measure requiring the Oklahoma Corporation Commission (OCC) to regulate all broadband providers (cable, DSL, satellite, and fixed wireless) equally. However it was modified to directly prohibit the OCC from regulating DSL or any other high-speed Internet access service. Resources Oregon Telecommunications Coord-inating Council (ORTCC) The Oregon Telecommunications Coordinating Council (ORTCC) was created by the state Legislature in 2001. The Council’s mission is "to provide all Oregonians with affordable access to broadband digital applications that will improve the quality of life in Oregon communities and reduce the economic gap between well-served and underserved Oregon communities." The ORTCC is comprised of 12 members that represent broad telecommunications interest groups including business and industry, telecommunications providers, state and local government, education, and health care organizations, as well as other interest groups. The council provides a coordinated approach to telecomm-unication investments by giving the ORTCC the authority to facilitate, through its recommendations, greater public/private partnerships and stronger state/local government partnerships.

    http://www.nilrr.org/chcknlttl2.htm
    
    Extractions: Right to Work Foes Rehash Old, Discredited Claims July 6, 2001 On September 25, Sooner citizens will vote on a constitutional amendment that would make Oklahoma the nation's 22nd Right to Work state by prohibiting the firing of employees for refusal to join or bankroll a labor union. The Right to Work Amendment, formally titled State Question 695, would also prohibit termination of employees for joining or financially supporting a union. Union officials who have gotten in the habit of financing their operations with the compulsory dues and "fees" of an estimated 41,000 Oklahoma employees are determined to protect this special privilege. But they have a hard time explaining why they believe the law should protect one employee's right to support a union, but at the same time authorize the firing of another employee who chooses not to support the same union. That's why the Oklahoma AFL-CIO apparatus, as well as officials of unions in neighboring states and dozens of national AFL-CIO operatives, are now spending untold millions of dollars in forced dues on deceitful propaganda that basically ignores the real issue of personal freedom.

    Extractions: One of the world's largest and busiest H.323 distance learning networks deploys Polycom's group, desktop and rack-mounted video solutions. TM group videoconferencing system, its ViaVideo TM desktop video communications appliance and the company's rack-mounted VS4000 for deployment on the OneNet IP network. OneNet provides Internet and network connectivity throughout the state of Oklahoma to tens-of-thousands of customers and recommends Polycom's group, desktop and rack-mounted interactive video communications products to all of its video customers. OneNet began 30 years ago as a distance learning network and has grown to include clients such as K-12 schools, higher education institutions, state and federal agencies, military organizations and private corporations. Interactive video communications is one of the most frequently used applications on OneNet's network. OneNet is the first network to install and operate over 1,000 interactive video classrooms, and the utilization of each room is exceptional, providing over 1,500 class session hours each week. By the end of 2001, OneNet anticipates deploying more than 2,000 video communications systems. "When we set out to find video endpoints to deploy on our H.323 network, we performed exhaustive research and testing, trying out any product we could get our hands on," said Bill Johnson, network operations manager for OneNet. "Only Polycom's video communications products offered the ease of use, reliability, interoperability with other products and price point we required for group, desktop and rack-mounted systems. Since implementing the Polycom equipment, we have seen a significant increase in the use of video communications, which we attribute to the quality of the experience and ease-of-use of the endpoints."

    Extractions: Oklahoma has approved a $6.6 million bond issue for OneNet, a statewide digital voice, data, and video network that will use a combination of public and private facilities. The network's backbone is existing state-owned fiber, augmented by leased tributary connections that will link 33 strategic hub sites across the state. Once implemented, the network will provide state agencies, K-12 schools, colleges and universities, libraries, county courthouses, telemedicine providers, and others with access to information resources at lower rates than currently available. Two bills were introduced in 1995 that would have changed the overall structure of state telecommunications; one by replacing the Information Service Division of the Office of State Finance with a Telecommunications Authority, the other by appointing a commission to oversee the activities of the authority. Both bills were considered in conference committees but not enacted into law. The 1993 report of the Governor's Telecommunications Retreat made employee training via videoconferencing and email a priority. The report also recommended that state agencies be able to take advantage of the information superhighway, including all Internet resources.

    Extractions: COMMITTEE ON SCIENCE U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES On Wednesday, May 2, 2001 at 2:00 p.m., the House Science Committee’s Subcommittee on Research will hold a hearing on possible roles for the National Science Foundation in improving K-12 math and science education.  Witnesses will comment on the role of institutions of higher education, private industry, and other organizations in working with State and local school systems to bring about positive change in the nation’s K-12 classrooms. In his proposal for reforming K-12 education in the U.S., No Child Left Behind­­­­ , President Bush laid out a comprehensive agenda for improving the nation’s K-12 schools.  Included in his package of proposed reforms was a call for partnerships between institutions of higher education and K-12 schools aimed at strengthening the quality of math and science instruction in elementary and secondary schools.  Types of partnership activities addressed in No Child Left Behind included: making math and science curricula more rigorous, improving math and science professional development, attracting more math and science majors to teaching, and aligning high school math and science standards to foster college placement.  In the President’s initial budget request
