Access Research Network ARN Library Files Education or Indoctrination? Analysis of Textbooks in Alabama I. General Observations A. Naturalistic Theories of Origins Taught as Fact B. Untestable Philosophical Assumptions Presented under the Color of Scientific Knowledge C. The Meaning of "Theory" Redefined D. Problems Unexplained by Evolutionary Theory not Mentioned ... G. Intellectual Dishonesty During the process of reviewing science textbooks for use in Alabama public schools, members of the 1995 Alabama State Textbook Committee found numerous problems with the books submitted for adoption. A detailed examination of these problems follows. A major class of problems concerns the way in which explanations of origins are presented in the texts. It was felt by a minority (six members of the State Textbook Committee) that many of the books violate an important directive of the Alabama State Board of Education. On March 9, 1995, this Board unanimously required that the Alabama Course of Study - Science include the following amendment: "Explanations of the origin of life and major groups of plants and animals, including humans, shall be treated as theory and not as fact. When attempting to apply scientific knowledge to world problems, no social agenda shall be promoted." This statement was deemed necessary by the State Board of Education to insure that the children of Alabama receive training in how to think rather than in what to think, and that they receive good science education, not ideological indoctrination.

Summary of 1999 Funded State Improvement Grant Applications August 1999 ALABAMA Abstract or Conceptual Framework for State Systemic Change Improving the Performance and Success of Alabama's Students with Disabilities The areas that need improvement for students with disabilities in Alabama can be summarized as: Poor academic performance. High dropout rate. High suspension and expulsion rate. Inadequate numbers of teaching and service personnel to fill some critical positions. To address these critical needs, the state of Alabama is submitting a proposal for a State Improvement Grant to the United States Department of Education, Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP). The five year project is a systems change effort at the four following goals: To improve reading skills of students with disabilities. To improve the numbers of students with disabilities who drop out. To reduce suspensions and expulsions for the students with disabilities. To reduce special education teacher turnover and increase the numbers of fully credentialed teachers.

Alabama Council for Technology in Education Northwest Region 2003 Technology Fair Competition Categories Information Technology Test Computer Programming General Applications Hardware-Robotics Multimedia Projects Video Production Web Site Team Programming Challenge General Rules Students must be registered by an adult representative (with phone and email contact information) to compete in both individual and group events according to their grade levels. Any group entry must compete at the (grade) level of the oldest member of the group . Groups are made up of two but not more than four members. Projects created by larger groups are NOT eligible for ACTE competition under any circumstances. Larger groups that were mistakenly entered and judged at regional fairs will not be permitted to compete at the state fair. The ACTE Technology Fair is open to students in grades 3-12. They are grouped into five levels: Level I (grades 3 and 4); Level II (grades 5 and 6); Level III (grades 7 and 8), Level IV (grades 9 and 10) and Level V (grades 11 and 12). Students in K-2 are not eligible to compete. Projects for each category must be unique and cannot be entered in more than one category. Projects that were entered in past years and won (1st , 2nd, 3rd place) at a regional fair are not eligible, even if they are substantially changed. A hardware-robotics project must have a programming component, but that program cannot also be entered in the programming category because it is designed to control the hardware, which could not function without it. The only exception is a large, multifunctional project that has several elements, each of which could stand alone, can be entered in the respective categories. Its parts must be titled differently as well as with the common name to indicate the multiple functions and common thread.

"Alabama State-wide Special Education Agreement" Presented at the Minority Issues in Special Education Conference Sponsored by the Civil Rights Project of Harvard University Kathleen S. Devine Civil Rights Division U.S. Department of Justice INTRODUCTION I'm here on behalf of the United States Department of Justice to talk about a statewide special education agreement that the United States, private plaintiffs and the State Department of Education in Alabama entered into this year that addressed issues of overrepresentation of African Americans in the mentally retarded and emotionally conflicted exceptionalities and of underrepresentation of African Americans in the learning disabled and gifted exceptionalities. I. Background A. Originally, the Lee v. Macon case began in 1963 with suit against one school board by parents and children who were seeking an injunction to prevent the Macon County School Board from continuing to run segregated schools. The case was expanded in the next few years to include the Alabama State Board of Education and over 100 local school systems. At present, 82 school systems are still under court order in the Lee v. Macon cases. In 1997, Judge Myron Thompson, in the Middle District of Alabama, called up 12 of these cases against local school districts, stating that the parties should move toward unitary status. During 1997 and 1998, the parties engaged in discovery and negotiated consent decrees with what was first 12, and then was reduced to 11, local school districts. While the state was one of the defendants in each of the consent decrees, these decrees addressed local level problems.

Home Information Membership Education ... Email SESC Information Southeastern Surgical Congress.......... Connecting with the Future The future brings change, and healthcare is changing today at a rapid pace. General surgeons must juggle changes in medicine with a shifting healthcare environment. Today, more than ever, you can benefit from a professional organization that specializes in the clinical and socioeconomic concerns of the general surgeon. For over seventy-one years, the Southeastern Surgical Congress has dedicated its resources to seeing that the general surgeon is equipped to meet the challenges of change. Through education and representation, the Southeastern Surgical Congress is working to connect the general surgeon to the future of the profession. The Southeastern Surgical Congress strives to benefit humanity by the continuing education of its members in the science of surgery and the ethical and competent practice of the art so that the health and welfare of patients may be constantly improved. The largest regional surgical society in America, the Southeastern Surgical Congress, was organized in 1930 as an association of surgeons in the states of Alabama, District of Columbia, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia. Delaware and Puerto Rico were included in 1965, New Jersey in 1978, and Pennsylvania in 1994.
