Extractions: It should take less time to downoad than the gif! C omputer networks are entrenched in business, government, industry and universities, but how are they faring in K-12 schools? A recent report by the Congressional Office of Technology Assessment, "Teachers and Technology: Making the Connection," estimates that while 75 percent of public schools in the United States have access to local or wide area networks and other telecommunications and 35 percent have access to the Internet, only 3 percent of instructional rooms (such as classrooms, labs and media centers) are connected to the Internet. Yet, Educational Service Unit #3 (ESU #3) in Omaha, Neb., has defied statistics by providing 19 public school districts in eastern Nebraska with network connectivity and Internet services where one might least expect itin the classroom. ESU #3 is an intermediate service agency funded by the state that provides an array of supplementary educational services to K-12 school districts. ESU #3's functions include computing services and technical support. In this role, it links 90 buildings in a wide area network that spans four counties, 54,000 students, 4,000 teachers and several hundred admi nistrators. "The network exists to give K-12 school systems in Nebraska connectivity to one another and the Internet," says Don Ferneding, systems manager at ESU #3. State law funds Internet services in schools statewide, and ESU #3 has been aggressive in making connectivity a reality for 90 percent of the classrooms in its region using dedicated 56-Kbps links, T1 connections and dial-up services.

Extractions: [Editor's Note: What follows is the Introduction from Dee Dee Halleck's book, Hand Held Visions: The Impossible Possibilities of Community Media, Fordham University Press, New York, 2002. Ms. Halleck has worked in community media for forty years, and written about it extensively. Her book is a compendium of articles written over the years on subjects that have piqued her interest. The fact that it was published by Fordham is perhaps more than a coincidence. It was at Fordham that Fr. John Culkin began his own children's media project, and it was a Fordham that Marshall McLuhan and Paul Ryan met. And it was from Fordham that Frank Gillette borrowed one of the first portapaks in New York and made the St. Mark's Tapes. Forham looms large in New York's early video history.] Hand Held Visions: The Impossible Possibilities of Community Media by DeeDee Halleck Introduction.

Extractions: 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. 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.

Extractions: In an effort to address the immediate concerns of the Colorado education community, the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence (CSPV) introduced the Safe Communities-Safe Schools initiative in the fall of 1999. This project will consist of the following strategies that will be available to all school communities in Colorado: information about the Safe Communities-Safe Schools Model, technical assistance, publications, web site, information house, media campaign, and a long-term response plan. The SSCC seeks to stimulate discussion, collaboration and action against youth violence by bringing schools, police, youth-serving agencies, the judicial system, and other interested parties together in a statewide collaboration. The coalition, formed in 1994, involves more than 1,500 educators, police, and youth workers in activities and stimulates the creation of community-based violence prevention coalitions. It has assisted schools in developing new violence prevention programs and facilitated networking and information sharing among members through bimonthly forums, major conferences, training seminars, task groups, youth involvement, and in-depth consultation and technical assistance to schools and communities.

Extractions: Preliminary Guidance for Migrant Education Program, Title I, Part C Public Law 103-382 To help all children reach high academic standards, many states, school districts, and schools will need a new kind of technical assistance. They will need comprehensive assistance that is driven by the needs of families and children and that can provide tools and information to help them leverage all available resources in order to improve teaching and learning for all children. To that end, the Department is creating regional technical assistance centers to provide comprehensive, high-quality assistance and information. The Depart ment is also changing the way it relates to the field by shifting its focus from monitoring for compliance to providing support to enhance program quality. The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE), which houses the Office of Migrant Education, has a new organizational structure that is built around ten regional service teams. Existing program offices, including the Office of Migrant Education, will retain a small program base, but will provide most services to OESE grantees through teams that have staff with expertise in OESE's programs. This new structure signals a new relationship with states and local operating agencies. Rather than focus on providing program-specific advice, the restructured OESE will use cross-program teams to encourage and support state and local efforts to integra te services and collaborate across programs. In anticipation of this change, OESE began in 1994-95 to conduct integrated reviews of federally funded education programs. Integrated reviews are on-site observations and assessments performed by a team of s taff members from two or more program offices within the Department. Each focused on the progress of systemic reform efforts within a state and explored how individual federal programs fit within that broad reform effort. The Office of Migrant Education participated in all of the initial integrated reviews.

Extractions: On Tuesday, June 4, 2002, The First Lady, Laura Bush convened a White House Conference on School Libraries. She introduced the program by saying that the library was the place where students could "ask questions about the world and find the answers." She proudly stated that her library education began in Midland, Texas where the first card in her wallet was her library card. Held in the East Room of the White House, the program included remarks from Dr. Robert Martin, Director of the Institute of Museum and Library Services who extolled the First Lady for the many examples of things she has done to encourage education. Dr. Vartan Gregorian, President of the Carnegie Corporation of New York, in his keynote speech expressed gratitude for the day's highlighting of school libraries. He said "libraries are as old as civilization and convey our Nation's heritage." Dr. Susan Neuman, Assistant Secretary for Elementary and Secondary Education from the U.S. Department of Education and Dr. Keith Curry Lance, from the Colorado Department of Education also presented remarks about the respective studies they had made of public and school libraries. A panel followed featuring Dr. Gary Hartzell, professor of Educational Administration at the University of Nebraska at Omaha, Faye Kimsey-Pharr, Principal of Lakeside Academy in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Dr. Kathleen D. Smith, Principal of Cherry Creek High School in Greenwood Village, Colorado and Dr. Steven Wisely, superintendent of Medford School District who all testified to the benefits of well-stocked school library media centers with qualified school library media specialists.

media Advisory July 28, 2000, For more information Chris Peterson My specificconcern centers upon the that one size fits all for nebraska school districts
http://gov.nol.org/Johanns/News/july00/schoolsafety.htm

Extractions: Lincoln Governor Mike Johanns signed off on new school safety requirements today with reservations. The Governor, who is concerned about the new rules impact on local control and compliance costs, asked the State Board of Education to review the rule after one year and determine if changes are needed. I approved the regulation with great reservation concerning the potential impact of the State Boards new mandatory requirements for school safety, Gov. Johanns wrote in a letter to State Board of Education President Beverly Peterson of Oakland. My specific concern centers upon the potentially broad impact . . . of the regulation which will require school system safety plans be reviewed annually by outside reviewers and which will also require that site visits be physically made to every building within a school system. After signing the rule, Johanns said, I am a very strong proponent of local control. I do not believe that one size fits all for Nebraska school districts. Thats why I am asking the State School Board to review the impact of this rule over this school year for possible changes next year. The Governor asked the State Board of Education to monitor implementation of the rule and consider making changes after one year. In the letter he wrote, . . .I have approved the regulation but ask that the State Board of Education consider deeming the first year of implementing the school safety requirements as a trial period.
