Tip Sheets October 2002 Clay Sprays May Control Harmful Algal Blooms Harmful algal blooms, or HABs, can harm fish, birds and even people who are exposed to the toxic algae. HABs come in many forms, including a red tide that regularly affects Florida waters, a brown tide organism, and Pfiesteria piscicida, an algae associated with fish kills. Scientists are unsure of exactly what causes the blooms, but a Woods Hole Sea Grant research team may have come up with a way to treat the increasingly common occurrences. Don Anderson and Mario Sengco are testing the use of clay to manage and control HABs. Clay, mixed with seawater, is sprayed over the algal bloom, where it binds with the harmful organisms and sinks to the bottom. In laboratory experiments meant to mimic field conditions, results showed that the clay removed 80 to 90 percent of the toxins in 2-hour treatments. Korea and Japan have used clay to control HABs periodically. In Korea clay is used mainly in aquaculture operations, which provide about 30 percent of Korea's fish. The concept has not caught on yet in the U.S.

Home Contact Us Site Guide About Trane Search only Commercial Bookstore Case Studies Engineers Newsletter Equipment Financing Global/Ntnl Accts Industry Issues Parts And Supplies Service Software Systems Training Minnesota School Combines Indoor Air Quality with Energy Efficiency Students and teachers in Red Wing, Minnesota are enjoying a new high school that uses the latest in efficient, quiet HVAC technology to provide optimal indoor air quality. Air quality requirements mandated by ASHRAE Standard 62-89, Ventilation For Acceptable Air Quality , have reversed the impact of the post oil embargo reduction in outside air ventilation to occupied spaces of the late 1970's. While the increase in outdoor air supply could not come too soon for those who are sensitive to poor indoor air quality, few people seem to remember the reason for reducing the outdoor air requirements in the first place. The drive toward energy efficiency to reduce dependence on foreign petroleum products seems to be a dim memory for many in the engineering profession today. The new Red Wing high school design exceeds the goals of energy efficiency from the 1970's while retaining the ventilation requirements of ASHRAE Standard 62-89. The advances in new HVAC technology along with an integrated approach to design problems have provided the school with HVAC systems that operate witth remarkable efficiency and provide exceptional comfort, air quality and acoustics. The 267,000 square-foot school, located west of Red Wing and the Mississippi River, accommodates 1400 students. John Brady of Armstrong, Torseth, Skold and Rydeen Architects and Engineers in the Twin Cities worked closely with the Twin Cities Trane district office to provide and unprecedented solution to the demands of indoor air quality, acoustics and energy efficiency.

School Board Administration Current District Initiatives Business Services ... Student Transportation Forest Lake Area Schools Independent School District 831 6100 210th Street North Forest Lake, MN 55025 , USA About Our District Welcome to Forest Lake Area School District 831! The Forest Lake Area School District No. 831 is located 30 miles north of the Twin Cities, along the I-35 corridor that runs north to Duluth. It is an area dotted by lakes, rolling hills, woods, and small towns. Many residents enjoy our rural, small-town life, and find they can easily commute to the Twin Cities area. Most schools 100 years ago were one-room rural school buildings scattered throughout the towns and countryside. Through consolidation of the small locally-controlled school districts over the years, the Forest Lake Area School district now encompasses 240 square miles, with seven elementary school buildings (K-6), a Montessori Elementary School (K-6), two junior high schools (7-9), a senior high school (10-12), and an Area Learning Center (6-12). The communities served are: Forest Lake, May Township, New Scandia Township, Wyoming, Lino Lakes, Columbus Township, Linwood Township, and parts of Marine-on-St. Croix, Hugo, Stacy, Ham Lake, Wyoming Township, and East Bethel. 7,651 K-12 students are enrolled for the 2003-04 school year. The academic efforts of our students are supported by excellent teachers (67% of our staff have earned a Masters Degree), challenging curriculum, technology, high standards, and a safe learning environment. The school district's strong traditional academic program is enhanced by award-winning co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, gifted education offerings, and a full range of special education programming. Five Forest Lake Area School District elementary schools have been recognized as Minnesota Schools of Excellence.

Library Media Program Objectives : Defining the Librarian's Responsibilities and Evaluation Objectives Objectives for school library media programs adhere to the concepts found in the Information Power guidelines . Defining objectives is a function of the school library media specialist in partnership with administrators, teachers, staff, students, and parents. Objectives for the program become the school librarian's responsibility within the school and the library. The school librarian's evaluation should be based on the performance of those defined responsibilites. Here are some examples of program objectives that a school library media center might have, illustrated with sample action items (the school librarian's responsibilities). Learning and Teaching Objective: We will provide resources and activities to promote student achievement and teacher knowledge, working collaboratively to help students achieve the Washington State Essential Academic Learning Requirements and district learning requirements. (Sample action items here) Information Access and Delivery Objective We will provide access to information technologies, print resources, and systems, working collaboratively to help students and teachers achieve academic and personal success.

The Media Center Why Are Media Positions Cut? How Not to Survive! by Mary Alice Anderson Lead Media Specialist, Winona Middle School, Winona, Minnesota MultiMedia Schools • May/June 2002 Let's examine practices that illustrate how not to survive. Only when we face the "fatal errors" that can be made can we get to higher ground. H ave you noticed that there are fewer media specialists than in the past? In an Iowa district, full-time elementary media specialists were replaced with half-time media specialists; in other schools clerical time was reduced. In a large Illinois school district, cuts were supposed to be made at all levels, but the only cuts actually made impacted the media centers at each building. A media specialist who left was not replaced. In a Southern state, elementary media specialists were given additional teaching assignments such as teaching reading an hour and a half a day, yet were listed as full-time media specialists in the building. Almost an entire district media department, including its director, was eliminated in a large Minnesota district a year ago. In another district, full-time media program paraprofessionals have replaced media specialists in all elementary schools. This spring even more media specialist positions in Minnesota are in danger because of state funding limitations and the failure of many school districts to pass operating fund initiatives. What's Happening? Why?

The Media Center Staff Development: Your Most Important Role by Mary Alice Anderson Media Specialist • Winona Middle School • Winona, Minnesota MultiMedia Schools • January/February 2000 S taff development: Everyone talks about it, few schools provide enough of it, and few states mandate it. A U.S. Department of Education survey of 3,560 teachers showed that only 20 percent of the teachers surveyed felt “very well prepared” to use computers in their classroom. These teachers were more likely to have received staff development in district initiatives, special education, and bilingual or diversity education. Teaching, Learning, and Computing: 1998 reported that of 6,000 teachers and principals surveyed, only half had formal training, most of which emphasized “how to” rather than integration. Teachers who do participate in “how-to” workshops are most likely to be those whose subject areas frequently use technology. Unfortunately, “critical experiences for linking [technology] to concrete teaching have been missing.” Many educators can relate these studies to their own experiences and observations; the need for more staff development is a frequent discussion topic whenever educators get together to discuss technology implementation. A teacher in an Eastern state said there was no training in her school, yet teachers were expected to make their own Web pages. My neighbor, a summer school teacher in Minnesota, said, “The stuff is here; none of us have a clue what to do with it.” Our district has continually offered training for years, yet numerous teachers are representative of
