82. How Will States Define “highly Qualified” Teachers need to take. But, if the teacher is not teaching state history, parentsshould not be overly alarmed. Teachers prepared and licensed http://www.ewa.org/infocenter/topics/teacherquality.htm

No Child Left Behind and Highly Qualified Teachers: Three Big Questions That Every News Reporter Should Ask The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 acknowledges the important role that teacher quality plays in promoting student achievement. After the first day of the 2002-2003 school year, all newly hired teachers in programs supported with Title I funds were required to be "highly qualified" according to the definition set forth in NCLB. By the end of the 2005-2006 school year, all teachers in core academic subjects must be "highly qualified" in areas of teaching assignment. Core academic subjects are defined by NCLB to be: English, reading or language arts, mathematics, science, foreign languages, civics and government, economics, arts, history and geography. The federal definition currently omits vocational education teachers from these provisions, but does not prohibit states from setting higher standards that would include teachers of vocational courses. Under NCLB, teachers are considered "highly qualified" if they have a bachelor’s degree, have full/continuing state certification and have demonstrated subject matter competence in the areas taught. [Note: many states use the term licensure to mean the same thing as certification, thus, the terms are used interchangeably.] In providing a definition of "highly qualified" for teachers who already hold current certificates/licenses to teach, states must offer guidance on what is considered fully licensed or certificated for elementary, middle grades and secondary school teachers. NCLB also requires states to engage in setting a "high objective uniform state standard of evaluation" (HOUSSE) necessary to determine competency in the subject matter taught, but may not use time spent in teaching subjects taught as a primary criteria.

85. Students On Site: Educators We work with teachers to incorporate our website and/or weekly classlessons into a larger class project on local or state history. http://www.artsofcitizenship.umich.edu/sos/edu/

Students on Site > Educators Resources for Educators Teachers' Overview The Students on Site (SOS) curriculum is geared towards use in local third and fourth grade classrooms. It does not aim to replace district social studies curricula, but instead can be used as a supplemental resource for teaching about the histories of Michigan and Ann Arbor. The curriculum supports Michigan’s third and fourth grade state student outcomes and is linked by content to chapters in the fourth grade social studies textbook Michigan, The World Around Us, and Part 3 of the third grade social studies text A History of Ann Arbor. State mandated social studies outcomes for third grade students State mandated social studies outcomes for fourth grade students The SOS curriculum consists of four components: Our SOS website offers an online teaching archive of documents, maps, photographs and audio recordings about the history of Ann Arbor, and was created by UM students for use in public K-12 classrooms. SOS staffers and UM students teach weekly class lessons over a three to five week period. We come onsite to work directly with your students, teaching them how to examine historical documents through small group discussions and hands-on activities. SOS lesson plans SOS staffers can collaborate on planning individual class projects. We work with teachers to incorporate our website and/or weekly class lessons into a larger class project on local or state history.

I am a full time lecturer at San Diego State University (currently on the 2003 job market) and I usually teach US Survey to Reconstruction as a lower division course and also as a specialty for students on a Teacher Ed track. I abandoned textbooks some time ago, frustrated by the very issues McClymer voiced. My teaching philosophy is to allow students to be the historians, and to take their learning experience into their own hands by "doing history." That said, I have used my own interactive website, made use of many other websites, used film, power points, etc. Students have gone "into the field" to do history including cemetery projects, oral history projects, created teaching modules, etc. Every semester I struggle to find new ways or revamp projects to produce the best results possible. In the end I believe that my methods and philosophy have had an impact on students and how they think about history. My teaching evaluations are strong, students often tell me I've changed the way they thing about the subject and share horror stories of history classes past.

Lee was been born a slave in Sequin, Texas. He was later trained to teach at Bishop College in Marshall and became principal of a two-room school in Palestine, Texas. Later he returned to teaching math and Latin at Bishop. He became one of the founding members of the Colored Teachers State Association of Texas. The 1904 Nashville meeting resulted in the creation of the National Association of Colored Teachers. Realizing that not all teachers working with black youth were colored, association officials in 1907 changed the name to the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools. The name was changed one last time in 1937, becoming the American Teachers Association.

90. Read This: Using History To Teach Mathematics: An International Perspective presents a broad spectrum of ideas about how to use history in teaching, from things threeof the 31 contributors are from the United States, matching the http://www.maa.org/reviews/usinghist.html

Read This! The MAA Online book review column Using History to Teach Mathematics: An International Perspective edited by Victor Katz Reviewed by Ed Sandifer Don't be turned off by the title. Victor Katz has gathered a diverse and fascinating selection of 26 essays on the history of mathematics and on ways to use it to teach mathematics, just like it says in the title. The title, though, does not capture the enthusiasm of the various authors, the depth and breadth of their topics, or their conviction that understanding and using history can enrich and improve the ways we teach mathematics. Katz has divided the essays into five groups, proceeding from the more pedagogical in Part I to the more historical in Part 5. The first four parts consist of three to five essays each, and the fifth part consists of eleven. The three essays in "Part I: General Ideas on the Use of History in Teaching" lay a foundation and motivation for the incorporation of history. Siu Man-Keung opens the work with some ways to include history without sacrificing mathematical content. Frank Swetz follows with an account of mathematical education from Mesopotamia through China to the Italian Renaissance. Wann-Sheng Horng contributes "Euclid versus Liu Hui: A Pedagogical Reflection" to "Part II: Historical Ideas and their Relationship to Pedagogy." He gives a provocative comparison between the structural approach to mathematics that the Greeks used to the more operational approach of the Chinese, with special emphasis on Euclid's and Liu Hui's descriptions of the so-called Euclidean algorithm.
