Meskill New 1/ Categorical Education GrantsII New OFA Reports State Aid to Education New 1/1 State Aid to Education The General Assembly will likely see proposals to increase aid to municipalities for K-12 education funding, particularly in the Education Cost Sharing (ECS) grant. Towns will also look for increased state assistance to pay for special education. Among the most prominent ECS issues is eliminating the 6% cap on annual increases in ECS grants, which is reducing grants to 96 towns this year. Although the cap is in the second year of a four-year phase-out and is scheduled to expire in FY 04, many towns believe it should be removed immediately, at a cost of $120 million in FY 01. Another option is to alter the cap phase-out to equalize its fiscal impact over its remaining years. The current phase-out is projected to increase ECS funding by approximately $30 million a year in FY 02 and FY 03, and $80 million in FY 04. The "balloon" in the final year makes towns fear the state will reduce FY 04 allocations.

A total of 42 states, Puerto Rico and outlying territories competed for the awards, known as General Supervision Enhancement Grants. The grants are intended to complement and support the accountability system developed by the departments Office of Special Education Programs by assisting states and lead agencies to develop and improve their infrastructure for holding states, districts and schools accountable for improving student achievement. "Accountability for improved performance rests at the heart of our efforts to improve American education," said U.S. Secretary of Education Rod Paige. "These awards will help move us toward assuring that our special education programs are offering quality educational services to all students with disabilities so that no child is left behind." Activities supported by the grants include: developing data-driven, evidence-based state monitoring systems that focus on areas that have the greatest impact on better outcomes for children with disabilities;

http://www.ed.gov/offices/OPE/FIPSE/LessonsIII/connec.html

Extractions: An Institution-Specific Approach There is much discussion and bewilderment in higher education about how to measure curriculum improvement, especially in general education. The University of Connecticut embarked on an ambitious project to test student performance in each of their six general education areas: science and technology, foreign languages, culture and modern society, philosophy and ethical analysis, social science and comparative analysis, and literature and the arts. The university wanted answers to questions about whether a student's level of performance in the new general education curriculum improves with time in the program, and whether the number of courses taken in a general education area affects student performance. Just a few years after the general education curriculum was installed, the university set out to study its benefits to students and to further refine its goals, structure and course content. From the beginning, this three-year project was viewed not as a one-time activity, but as a continuing faculty-directed process of goal and curriculum improvement. Since the university had no prior institutional structure for assessment, the project required the creation of an ad hoc committee on assessment within the Faculty Senate. The assessment process stressed the faculty's role in generating clear and concrete general education goals and in deciding what constitutes evidence that they have been achieved. Fifty faculty members working in six different goal committees (each of which included a behavioral measurement expert) examined all the course syllabi and relevant standardized and commercial tests, and arrived at a set of 14 locally-developed assessment instruments that matched the new goals. With two exceptions, each gene ral education area was assigned two forms with complementary content. Another instrument, the Cornell Test, was purchased to measure critical thinking skills.

http://www.yale.edu/ynhti/curriculum/units/1981/cthistory/81.ch.02.x.html

Extractions: Clifford J. Dudley The idea of public education has come to mean various things to many people. What is your concept of it? What images do your students have when public education is mentioned? Public schools in England have little in common with their name-sakes in America; more like our private schools, they are exclusive schools which serve to prepare students for important jobs in the government or military, public service. Yet the present American idea of publicly supported schools which would teach basic knowledge to future citizens did not exist in our state most of our early history. This unit is concerned with how education developed throughout the states history. The overall goal of the unit is to Provide students with insight into how education has responded to changing conditions. Your students should learn how education affects, and in turn is affected by, the attitudes of the society in which it exists. The unit is divided into three sections: the colonial era, the 19th century, and the 2Oth century. The sections may be taught together as a two-week unit, or separately in connection with each period as it is covered in traditional American history courses. It may be used for grades eight through ten. However, depending on your desires and the class ability, the unit may be used for a more intense study of Connecticut public education. I have prefaced each section with a general objective which the students should recognize. Following each section are some activities which you nay find useful. Of course, each of us will use this material in the way we feel will be most informative and interesting to the students.

Extractions: More Connecticut history, heritage, people, places and things... The history of public and private elementary, secondary, and collegiate education in Connecticut is, on the whole, a happy one, though a close inspection of the condition of schools throughout the state's history will not support that generalization unless set in a national context. Things get bad in Connecticut from time to time, and are never as good as they should be for delivering quality education but, compared with almost every other state in the United Statesprobably in the worldwe're stars. There are many general histories of education in America, and a study of one of them should form the first step in an investigation of education in Connecticut. A number of works treat the history of public education in Connecticut m a general way. One of the best is Charles L. Ames' essay "History of Education in Connecticut, 1818-1925," in Vol. V of Osborns History of Connecticut in Monographic Form . It is only about fifty pages and stops in 1925. Ames taught for many years in rural one-room schoolhouses and then for a third of a century in Hartford. At the time he wrote this essay, he was a member of the State Board of Education. Another old standard work, now superseded, is Bernard C. Steiner

Extractions: Academic ... General Education Dated: August 5, 2002 Connecticut College requires that each student complete a program of general education. Part I: Foundation Courses Foundation Courses are designed to give you a basic introduction to a discipline. This might be done through the study of major texts in a given discipline or through study of the issues and questions around which a discipline is built. The academic disciplines are in essence formalized ways of trying to understand the world, and each one of them has its conventions of how it goes about its task. Another way in which Foundation Courses can work then is to introduce you to the chief issues within a given discipline. Another way of saying this is to ask what are the questions a discipline is trying to answer. Academic disciplines are perspectives and vantage points from which the world can be observed and understood. Each stakes out a portion of reality to examine, and thus offers a perspective or vantage point from which to see and evaluate the world. Whichever one it happens to be, a liberal arts discipline should teach you how to examine critically the conventions of inquiry being followed and the assumptions used. This is true whether you are studying institutions, scientific data, human beings, or perhaps most importantly of all, yourself.
