As an instructional strategy, situated cognition has been seen as a means for relating subject matter to the needs and concerns of learners. Learning is essentially a matter of creating meaning from the real activities of daily living. By embedding subject matter in the ongoing experiences of the learners and by creating opportunities for learners to live subject matter in the context of real-world challenges, knowledge is acquired and learning transfers from the classroom to the realm of practice.

Extractions: We worked in collaboration with the West Virginia Board of Examiners for Registered Professional Nurses, the West Virginia School Nurses Association, parents, county boards of education, superintendents, building administrators, physicians and West Virginia Department of Education staff in an effort to develop a policy that our entire state could embrace, said WVBOE Vice President Barbara Fish. While full consensus was never reached, we believe Policy 2422.8 follows the letter of the law and is in the best interest of the children. The Medication Administration Committee looked at the laws and policies regarding school nurses and their licensure and determined that no law or policy specifies that only school nurses may administer non-prescription medications. As a result, the Committee recommended taking this responsibility from nurses in order to safeguard their nursing licenses. This new policy places the responsibility for administering non-prescription medication with the building administrator.
Extractions: Charleston During a State of the Schools address presented today, State Superintendent Dr. David Stewart outlined his vision for the future of West Virginia public schools, discussed the states educational achievements and thanked teachers and other school employees for their hard work and dedication to children.

The entire educational team should be extremely proud of past accomplishments, but we should not lose sight that we must strive for continued, sustainable progress. During his address, Dr. Stewart discussed recent initiatives, including Project MERIT (Mathematics Education Reform Initiative for Teachers), a program to improve mathematics teaching in the middle schools; WV IMPACT (Implementing Model Practices to Assure Competent Teachers), a teacher quality enhancement program; Preparing Tomorrows Teachers to Use Technology, a comprehensive project to help teachers, teacher education students and college instructors utilize technology in teacher education programs; and Virtual School, a new initiative to use the Internet to provide additional course offerings to West Virginia students.

Extractions: LOFTI was initiated in response to a growing need in South Dakota to invest in professional development that would increase the technology skills of classroom teachers and help them find meaningful ways to use technology to enhance student learning. The goal and objectives of the project were grounded in the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) National Educational Technology Standards for Teachers published in 1997 and revised in 2000. http://lofti.tie.net/ During the first three years of LOFTI, the K-12 sites used a variety of methods to gather data regarding teacher performance relative to the ISTE standards. In order to standardize the data collected from K-12 sites for comparisons to be made, LOFTI launched the ISTE/LOFTI Teacher Profile (ILTP) Study. The study had two purposes: First, the data would be used to help shape the LOFTI project evaluation; and second, the results would be used for LOFTI project improvement and decision-making. In addition, project evaluators envisioned the study as a professional development experience for participants, helping them to develop skills and leadership capacity. http://lofti.tie.net/resources/Dissemination/iltp/iltp.htm
