Press Release French English About Bridge Partners ... Join BRIDGE The BRIDGE Project The pioneering work of the International Education and Resource Network (iEARN) in predominantly Muslim countries has shown positive results. It has given teachers in the U.S., Middle East, North Africa and South Asia replicable and scalable models for technology-enhanced school-to-school collaboration projects. iEARN was one of the first programs to provide widespread distribution of Internet access to schools in Muslim countries. The first of these projects was launched in 1994 with the Ramallah Friends School in the West Bank. Since then, iEARN programs in the Middle East have expanded to include a total of 24 countries with large Muslim populations, often through partnerships with Ministries of Education. Teachers and students in these schools have joined iEARN participants worldwide to explore such topics as: ethnic tolerance, gender equity, community service, science, math, human rights, history, environmental awareness, and English language acquisition. A program linking schools in the US with schools in the Muslim world is well timed. The program is especially important for educators and students from these countries who have been under-represented in most educational exchange and training programs, and who wish to connect with their global peers in developing technology resources for their classrooms. At a crucial time in the region, youth in the Middle East and South Asia are able share in cross-cultural and online Project-Based Learning. The Internet, and the equipment that make it accessible within a classroom, remains a symbol of empowerment for youth who strive for a voice in global dialogue.

Adobe Enables Teachers Nationwide to Deliver Technology Software Education to Students State of Texas Joins Growing List of Teacher Training Programs Nationwide Using Breadth of Adobe Products to "Leave no Child Behind" SAN JOSE, Calif.—February 4, 2003 (NASDAQ: ADBE)— Adobe Systems Incorporated, the leader in network publishing, today announced that it has been selected to provide software for the Technology Applications Certification Program (TACP), a K-12 teacher training initiative dedicated to advancing technology in Texas classrooms. Supporting a statewide mandate, the full scope of Adobe products will serve as the foundation for improving the technology aptitude of 1,200 Texas educators developing high-tech curricula for students. The State of Texas joins school districts and programs nationwide that are implementing Adobe software in the classroom to close the digital divide. According to the National School Board Foundation, teachers at 90 percent of the nation's largest school districts lack technology training in the classroom. Responding to this need, the state of Texas developed the TCAP with a $2.2 million grant, giving teachers in low-income communities software instruction to incorporate technology courses into their curriculum. As part of the two-year certification program, teachers will learn Adobe's print and Web publishing and graphics products, allowing them to teach Web, desktop publishing, video, graphics, and animation courses. The program, ensuring that every Texas school district has technologically savvy teachers, is being facilitated through the Texas Center for Educational Technology (TCET) and the University of North Texas.

Would you go about training end users differently with your next enterprise application deployment? According to a recent industry analyst poll, more than 75% of those surveyed said, "yes." Why? Because rolling out new software entails more than teaching a few new keystrokes. Successful rollouts must build and maintain end-user knowledge of new custom systems in order to ensure adoption and ongoing use. Here are just some of the ways using Web collaboration can improve Web-based training and change management, and accelerate your next software deployment: Get Early Application Buy-In Once the decision to deploy an enterprise application has been made, communicating the project's objectives, staff assignments, and rollout plan across the organization is critical to getting employees and supply chain partners on board. Using live, interactive Web conferences, project managers can communicate plans to thousands of users simultaneously. Develop a Training Blueprint Training teams can use Web meetings to quickly conduct needs analysis across the organization to determine how business processes will be migrated to the new systems and to plan departmental level training programs.

Geneforum's newsletter Fowler, Gregory L., "Teaching the New Genetics," publication info here. Teaching the New Genetics by G. Fowler According to some experts, the human body, virtually unchanged for thousands of years, may be about to undergo a bewildering variety of modifications. With the announcement last March that "reprogenetic" technologies have been used to effectively alter the human germ line, 21st century biotechnology may be in the process of stretching the very meaning of the word "human" beyond all previous limits. We can only guess at the cultural, legal, and ethical questions that inherited genetic modifications (IGM) in humans will raise. But one thing is certain: there will have to be inspired, logical thinking by an engaged and informed citizenry about which biomedical roads we want to go down if our children and grandchildren are to deal responsibly with the challenges ahead. Aimed at creating educational strategies to help accomplish that goal, Geneforum, a non-profit, nonpartisan organization headquartered in Portland was founded in 1999. [See Geneforum on the Web at http://www.geneforum.org]. Three general goals drive Geneforum's mission to help create genome science policy which reflects public values: 1) education of the public; 2) transfer of information from the public to policy leaders; and 3) stimulation of the sense of community.

Using Collaboration in Support of Distance Learning Marion G. Ben-Jacob Mercy College Dobbs Ferry, New York David S. Levin DePaul University Chicago, Illinois The teacher-student relationship is increasingly mediated by the use of technology. No where is this more evident that in distance learning. The typical distance learner is a mature person with a substantial number of commitments in addition to furthering his/her education. This paper investigates the implications of this reliance upon technology by distance learning programs. If they are going to achieve effective learning outcomes, what pedagogical shifts should teachers make? What changes should institutions make to support the distance learner? The authors will report on findings derived not only from current literature, but also from the practice of teaching in and supporting distance learning programs at two institutions. The initial driving force behind distance learning programs was the desire to provide opportunities for learning to individuals who are not able to attend an educational institution; to increase the number of educational experiences available to individuals; and to provide educational opportunities to individuals at times and places of their convenience. This third reason for distance learning programs has taken on increased importance in proportion to the number of working adults seeking higher education. The early modes and media of distance education met these needs by providing educational opportunities for students who did not reside nor commute to campus

This project integrates all areas of the public school curriculum through a multidisciplinary approach to teaching science, math, language arts, and technology through project-based learning. Critical thinking, visual literacy, and cooperative learning are also integral to the project. These skills will be learned and demonstrated by students will work together to complete a series of activities in which they will respond to a real-world problem affecting their region and community. The scenario to follow will orient the reader to the role of the university reading/literacy curriculum and pedagogy class as project partners with sixth grade students. As this preservice professional development course is intended to prepare elementary education majors to teach in regional schools, issues related to reading across the curriculum, student assessment and evaluation, and hands-on, experiential learning are addressed. A rationale for establishing partnerships with the students with whom preservice teachers will be working is also explored in the context of the Desert Oasis project.

Introduction Just what is teaching and learning in cyberspace? Most of us first think of distance learning classes that use Internet tools to disseminate class information and enable communication between students and teacher. But many teachers of so-called "traditional" on-campus classes are adopting cyberspace activities to supplement their face-to-face classes. They put assignments and syllabi on the class web page, along with helpful links to outside sources that may be of use to students, and they may also supplement in-class discussion with class e-mail discussion groups (asynchronous) or MUD/MOO type chat room discussion (synchronous). Or they might use a NetPhone,

Rountree Introduction Sidebar: MAP, SEW, SEM, TUPreservice Help Multiple Abilities Program (MAP) Summer Enrichment Workshop (SEW) ... Author Online Page Imagine first-year teachers who provide enrichment through instruction that is learner centered and hands on and that challenges students' creative and critical thinking. Also imagine that these teachers are providing such enrichment to all students in both general and special education programs. Further, imagine an innovative teacher-education program where preservice teachers team with general elementary and special education classroom mentors to teach students with a wide range of talents and abilities, including those with average and above average abilities, as well as students with mild learning or behavior problems. In the Multiple Abilities Program (MAP) in the College of Education at the University of Alabama, these scenarios are not merely pleasant scenes for the imagination but a reality of the commitment, collaboration, and inventiveness of preservice and experienced teachers, and university faculty. If your imagination is stimulated by these glimpses into classrooms of the future, read on for a description of the Multiple Abilities Program and its emphasis on school-based teacher preparation. Find out, specifically, about the partnership of MAP preservice teachers and gifted education teachers during the Summer Enrichment Workshop (SEW) in practicing enrichment strategies appropriate for all learners.

80. Warschauer/Whittaker - The Internet For English Teaching: Guidelines For Teacher which are then investigated in collaboration with foreign to be made by the classroomteacher, preferably think about how to integrate online connections into http://iteslj.org/Articles/Warschauer-Internet.html

The Internet TESL Journal The Internet for English Teaching: Guidelines for Teachers Mark Warschauer markw [at] hawaii.edu http://www.lll.hawaii.edu/markw University of Hawaii at Manoa P. Fawn Whittaker whittakf [at] byuh.edu Brigham Young University - Hawaii Originally published in the TESL Reporter 30,1 (1997), pp. 27-33 Teachers have been using online communication in the language classroom for more than ten years now. From an investigation of the experiences of dozens of teachers around the world who have used the Internet in language teaching (Warschauer, l995a; l995b; 1996c; 1996d), a few common guidelines emerge that can assist teachers in successfully planning and implementing network-based learning projects. Guidelines Readers will note that these guidelines are independent of the particular technological tools being used. As has been noted elsewhere, "technology is developing so rapidly that it can often be difficult or even overwhelming to harness, somewhat like trying to get a drink of water from a gushing fire hydrant" (Warschauer, l995b. p. xv). In order to make effective use of new technologies, teachers must thus take a step back and focus on some basic pedagogical requirements. The following guidelines are designed to help teachers implement computer network-based activities into the second language classroom. #1: Consider Carefully Your Goals As will be discussed further below, little is usually gained by just adding random online activities into a classroom. Clarifying course goals is, thus, an important first step toward successful use of the Internet.
