Regionality Committee Recommendations from the Regionality Subcommittee of the Taskforce on the Future of CSU, Chico Carol Burr, Chair; Kurt Nordstrom, Jim Haehn, Tom Lando, Chuck Worth; with input from Bill Lerch, John Sanzone, Ralph Meuter, Laura McLachlin, Janet Summerville, Elaine Wangberg, Ed Masterson The following recommendations are all in the spirit of a place-centered and globally connected university and in the pragmatic need for coordinated, supported, and publicized regional involvement in our 12-county service area. They are also based on clear evidence that a complicated bureacracy prevents or slows the development of such involvement: 1. Foster an environment that encourages participation and innovation in regional projects, e.g. campus/regional advisory board to consider interactive programs. Action Plan Establish an advisory group with Foundation, faculty, staff, and community to simplify the bureaucracy and develop incentives for regional activity. Consider establishing a center to coordinate regional activities, perhaps beginning with a survey of university-region projects already under way and a survey of regional entities to assess their needs and possible ways to address these needs. Use the center to help regional entities develop grants for a fee and guarantee of university involvement.

Scholar News Magazine Jewish ... Science Land of Israel Archeology Medicinal Chemistry Biophysics ... Publishers The Ingeborg Rennert Center for Jerusalem Studies has burst onto the Israeli academic scene with an ambitious interdisciplinary focus on the history, archeology, culture, religion and literature of Jerusalem throughout the ages and in contemporary times. Its lofty aim: to broadcast the centrality of Jerusalem to Jews and non-Jews everywhere. Through academic and archeological research, educational outreach activities, popular lectures, international conferences and guided tours, Bar-Ilan University's Ingeborg Rennert Center for Jerusalem Studies has become a leading educational force in teaching about Jerusalem. Rennert Center Director Prof. Joshua Schwartz Why a Jerusalem center at Bar-Ilan University? "Jerusalem is the eternal capital of the Jewish people, its heart and its life," affirms Prof. Joshua Schwartz, director of the Rennert Center. "Even though Bar-Ilan is in Ramat Gan, spiritually, the university is Jerusalem oriented." "Our emphasis on combining the study of the sacred with the scientific makes Bar-Ian University the ideal academic venue for this enterprise. And the center's work is conducted out by a unique group of archeologists and historians who are not strangers to Jewish tradition," adds Schwartz.

Gander Academy archeology page for kids Definitions and activities included! Some teachers like to make what is known as a "box dig" for their students to learn about archeology. The teacher puts different color soils in a box and hides "artifacts" in the layers. This teaching method can work, but it has the problem of relaying the message that archeology is only about digging and not learning about the past by studying the artifacts. If you choose to do a box dig with your class be sure to talk about what happens to the artifacts after they are recovered. Archeologists generally spend three hours in the lab for every hour they spend in the field. We clean and identify the artifacts, then analyze them to determine what they tell us about people in the past. Students should recognize the fact that archeology is not only about digging, but learning about what the digging tells us about history.

Environmental Alliance for Senior Involvement Environmental Education Programs Environmental education is a vital component of EASI programs because we recognize the urgency of passing on a positive environmental heriatage to future generations. In co-operation with host organization such as Retired Senior Volunteer Programs, senior centers, religious organizations, local governments, and others. Senior volunteers work in their own communities to share their environmental ethics with children. They work in local public school programs in hands-on activities that teach resource conservation and the need for clean air and water. They serve as docents and guides, and help develop environmental programs at museums, nature centers zoos and libraries as well as classrooms. They help urban children learn the delight of growing things in school or community gardens. In Alabama, a local SEC takes youngsters in kindergarten through second grade on 20 environmental field trips a year, 125 children per trip, as a part of a project to preserve the natural beauty of their rural mountain lake community. SEC volunteers in Texas guide elementary school students daily through a program at the Elm Fork Education Center that offers hands-on activities in aquatics, archeology, astronomy and natural science. All across the country, seniors mentor young people in activities such as stream monitoring, wildlife mapping and groundwater protection. Volunteers often become the primary source of information for a community about a specific environmental project or concern. Training is provided so that all volunteers feel confident answering questions about environmental concerns, demonstrating specific environmental education tools, and speaking in classrooms or community public settings. In their outreach to thousands of young people, senior volunteers teach and inspire new generations to become good stewards of the environment.

College Of Social & Behavioral Sciences Strategic Academic Outreach Plan K12 and community outreach activities include school to the biological anthropologyor archeology laboratories, and develop their ability to teach students to http://www.umass.edu/outreach/office_of_university_outreach/strategic_plans/csbs

Academic Outreach Plan September, 2000 Introduction The College is engaged in a variety of outreach activities which range from the provision of services to the community to the production of scholarly studies which have a public policy focus. It is in these activities where the traditional separation between teaching, research and service overlap dramatically in ways that enrich each activity. Faculty, staff and students have continued to increase their academic outreach activities in the areas of research, service, and teaching. As examples: the Psychological Services Institute provides therapy for community members who are unable to pay market rates while offering important training experiences for graduate students in clinical psychology; SADRI, PERI and the Center for Public Policy and Administration produce studies which contribute to the public discussion of important social and economic issues; and MISER serves as the State's census repository and engages in a variety of contract research activities involving very large data bases and sophisticated methodologies. The activities of the College faculty have strengthened crucial links with government agencies, business, labor, the public schools, and various ethnic and racial communities. In turn, these links have contributed to the teaching, learning, research and service activities of undergraduate and graduate students and the faculty.

Meeting Standards without Sacrificing Quality Curriculum in the Middle School Lynne M. Bailey University of Central Florida Abstract The purpose of this research was to examine how effective learning could be curriculum-driven while still addressing mandated content standards at the middle school level. Having recently participated in planning and implementing a team interdisciplinary unit, the researcher sought to address three questions: 1) How did students perceive their learning experiences after participating in such a unit, 2) Could a quality interdisciplinary unit be developed without initially being derived from content standards guidelines, and 3) Would participation in such an extended curricular unit affect student achievement? The primary positive aspects for the unit that were cited most often by students were making journals, watching videos, experiencing a "real" archeological dig, the field trip, and being a student teacher.

Anthropology courses in the Department of Sociology and Human Services at Henderson State University are taught by a state archeologist with the Arkansas Archeological Survey who manages the HSU Museum and an office and laboratory facility in addition to their teaching activities, and they carry out a research and public archeology program in southwest Arkansas. The archeologist is assisted by Milton A. Hughes, Archeological Assistant, and by both HSU students and volunteer members of the public. Research at the archeological survey office is broadly directed toward understanding the ecological relationships between humans and their natural and social environments in the Trans-Mississippi South over the last 12,000 years, and in learning about the material culture and society of the region's last native Indian inhabitants, the ancestors of the northeastern branch of the Caddoan people. A variety of field, laboratory, and archival projects are underway at any given time. The Survey is a unit of the University of Arkansas System with branch offices located on seven universities throughout Arkansas where survey archeologists teach of offer some other services to the host institutions. The Arkansas Archeological Society allows anyone to join and participate in archeological activities in the state.

What is Archaeology? 1757 Hospital of Death Fort George French and Indian War ... Rogers Island Buckle, Ft. George, summer 2001 Hospital of Death, click here My n ame is Matthew Rozell and I teach history at Hudson Falls High School. Since 1986 (even before my teaching career began), I have been pursuing one of my passions, archaeology. That year I volunteered to work for Dr. David Starbuck at Saratoga National Historical Park searching for the farmhouse that served as the American Headquarters of General Horatio Gates during the climactic Battle of Saratoga. Though Gates occupied it only for 3 weeks in 1777, we did find evidence of military occupation-on the last day of digging I found canister shot, which is 18th century anti-personnel ordnance fired from a cannon. I've been hooked ever since! Today I am a field supervisor for Dr. Starbuck at the field schools that have been conducted every summer in conjunction with Adirondack Community College. I have instructed dozens of HFHS students and alumni (as well as students from other area high schools and across the country) in the methodology of proper archaeological excavation, record keeping, and field analysis. Our work has added quite a bit to the story of the formative years of our nation. Our specialty is the excavation of military sites of the French and Indian Wars of the 1750s and the American Revolutionary War site of the 1770s. This section of the historic corridor from Canada to Albany, New York (known as the the "Great Warpath") is full of sites that need to be at least defined before they are lost through development or looting.
