Extractions: bscheid@lightspan.com WASHINGTON, D.C., June 15, 2000 Lightspan, Inc. (NASDAQ:LSPN) announced today that it will be teaming up with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to provide education technology resources for more than 600 Neighborhood Network centers in public and assisted housing communities. President Clinton will announce the partnership today at the historic White House Strategy Session: Improving Hispanic Student Achievement. The Lightspan/HUD partnership will begin by establishing programs in HUD communities that serve a large number of Hispanic families. To ensure access to the best possible resources in the Neighborhood Network centers, Lightspan will provide interactive and online content including: math and reading activities aligned with state standards; an online English/Spanish Parent and Family Center to provide homework assistance; and a series of online research tools, including an interactive encyclopedia, dictionary and thesaurus. The initial programs will be established in Delaware, where Governor Thomas R. Carper provided leadership in facilitating this dynamic partnership on behalf of lower-income families. "Having spent the past 20 years working in educational technology, I have firsthand knowledge of the equity-in-education issue and how it affects Hispanic communities," said John T. Kernan, chairman and CEO of Lightspan. As a result of Lightspan's success in helping schools and families bridge the digital divide and improve language and academic skills, President Clinton sought out Kernan to participate in the White House Strategy Session.

Extractions: CASTLE EDUCATION SUBCOMMITTEE HEARS FROM DELAWAREANS ON IMPORTANCE OF FLEXIBILITY IN FEDERAL EDUCATION AID (Washington, D.C.) As Chairman of the Education Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Youth and Families, Delaware Congressman Michael N. Castle today chaired a hearing concerning Title VI of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, which provides money to the states in the form of a block grant for innovative education reform. Mrs. Valerie Woodruff, Acting Secretary of Education for the State of Delaware and Mrs. Allison Kaplan, Coordinator of School Library Media Specialist Program at the University of Delaware were two of the four witnesses who testified. "This is the only federal program authorized to help our schools address the critical shortage of books in their media centers as well as give local authorities the flexibility they need to purchase education technology, support programs to combat illiteracy and provide for the unique educational needs for gifted and talented children," Castle said. "It is unfortunate the President continues to zero-out the Title VI program in his proposed budgets, despite the broad bipartisan support the program receives.." Title VI is the only block grant within ESEA and these funds are allocated from the Department of Education to state educational agencies based on the population of children age 5-17, with 85 percent of funding going to the local level and 15 percent of funding remaining at the state level. Title VI enables states and localities to implement promising educational reforms without the usual restrictions and red-tape. Title VI was funded at $375 million in FY 99, with Delaware receiving $1.7 million and it was funded at $365.8 million in FY00, with Delaware receiving $1.86 million.

FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC This digest is based on ONLINE INFORMATION SERVICES FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS: A CURRENT ASSESSMENT, by Elizabeth Smith Aversa, Jacqueline C. Mancall, and Diane Oesau. CURRENT STATUS Schools across the country have expanded reference and bibliographic access by going online, although such access is still extremely limited in scale, and where it does occur, is often limited to a special group of students or classes. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF ONLINE ACCESS There are numerous advantages to connecting students and information electronically. Such access extends the limited resources available to them in the school library media center, increasing the potential diversity of information available to solve information related problems. Students are able to locate the most current information since online databases are updated at frequent intervals. Search time is reduced by the cumulated, comprehensive database indexes. Additional entry points for searching are available, such as key words and phrases. In addition, electronic access creates excitement about the search process, and provides a means to search multi-faceted topics.
