MOVEMENT IS MEDICINE Nine Steps to Help Harness the Healing Power of Physical Activity By Carol Krucoff and Mitchell Krucoff, M.D. This article is provided for personal use and may not be reprinted, reproduced or distributed without written permission from the authors. Feel free to link to it however! When most people think of medicine, they visualize something material like a pill to be popped, a liquid to be swallowed or an injection to be endured. Some might also consider surgery, tests or procedures to be medicine since these high-tech maneuvers can help diagnose and treat disease. But one of the most potent forms of medicine isn't something you can buy at a pharmacy or get at the doctor's office. No one else can give you this medicine or perform its magic for you. It's movement, simple physical activity that can have profound healing effects. And it's something only you can do for yourself.

Edwin Ellis and Theresa Farmer describe the situation eloquently in the introduction to their clarifying strategy to teach vocabulary. To quote: " No doubt you share the common childhood experience of having to "go look up the words in a dictionary, write the definition, and then write a sentence using the term" but how much of that vocabulary do you remember now?... Perhaps the least effective way to study vocabulary is the ''look and remember' technique. Here, students typically stare at the term and definition, apparently trying to activate photographic memory they wish they had. Another common study technique is to do 'rote verbal rehearsal' saying it over and over again, usually in the exact language and format in which the definition originally came. "

Ideas for Activities Using Live Seismograms from the LISS Website This document provides some general ideas for educational activities which can utilize the helicorder-style seismogram plots (heliplots) on the LISS website. Some of the activities are quite basic and can probably be adapted to primary or middle school levels, while the more advanced exercises may be appropriate for undergraduate university level courses. Exercise 1: Earthquakes, the media, geography Watch the LISS each day for current seismic events (or use the IRIS seismic monitor ). On the LISS one can see large earthquakes as they happen, sometimes hours before the formal reports are released. When a large earthquake is observed in some part of the world: Assign groups to search the newspapers for the next few days for reports of the earthquake (one can access newspapers all over the world via the WWW). If news reports are/aren't found discuss: Why was (wasn't) an earthquake in that part of the world reported? Does the US have economic or political ties to that area?

FOR STUDENT GROUPS: At the Aldo Leopold Nature Center, we continue Aldo Leopold's legacy by teaching students that the land is a complex organism to be loved, cared for, studied, and understood. School programs focus on learning-by-doing and use simple equipment. Our experienced naturalists work with teachers or group leaders to plan specific activities. Groups are kept small, tour length is up to 1.5 hours, and activities can be tailored to fit your group's special interests and needs. School Field Trip Programs We work with teachers to ensure that trips to the Nature Center are an integral part of your child's education. Throughout the year, we offer grade- and topic- specific programs from pond ecology to winter survival. For program descriptions and registration information click here: School Field Trip Programs Get energized with Nature Center's field trips focused on energy education. As part of our effort to improve energy education, teachers are encouraged to read our "Hands-on Energy in Nature" handbook. The handbook addresses key concepts of energy, both in nature and as managed by humans. To view the handbook, click here:

TEFLChina Teahouse Life Good stuff Good stuff: Positive energy and the round file Roger Chrisman, 29 June 1998 There is a good deal of littering on campus, here at Guangdong University of Foreign Studies. A bird tells me it is an expression of opprobrium from the students towards the intellectual apathy from their teachers and administrators. This didn't translate nicely in my heart, since it put me on the side lacking intellectual vigor. It stressed me and then depressed me. And so I though: clean classrooms set a positive attitude and I believe in positive energy. All the classrooms in my university have (1) refuse in the desks and on the floor, and (2) no trash cans. So I decided to make my classroom a positive example and bought two plastic waste baskets, one for each end of my rather large classroom. Students gradually began putting waste into the round file, rather than into their desks or on the floor. Not always of course. It was a hard habit to get into because there were no waste baskets in the other classrooms. But perhaps the larger half of the crumpled papers, food wrappers, plum pits etc. in my classroom ended up in the waste baskets. I collected the rest into the baskets at the end of the day and dumped them in the trash can down the hall. We had done this for two semesters. Then lo, guess what happened yesterday! I saw a bunch of students, with a bright stack of colorful plastic round files (waste baskets), taking signatures on a poster in front of their dormitory! One of them slotted me and shouted for me to come over and sign this poster. She had been in a class I had substituted in last September (and had brought my two waste baskets along with me to) and she had now bought a whole stack of colorful plastic waste baskets with her own money, one for each classroom in our teaching building!
