To that end, the RISEO has been a member of the National Energy Education Development Project (NEED) since 1991. The NEED Project has been instrumental in helping the Energy Office achieve its goals of providing quality energy education materials to K-12 schools. The mission of the NEED Project is to promote an energy conscious and educated society by creating effective networks of students, educators, business, government and community leaders to design and deliver objective, multi-sided energy education programs. The NEED Project is dedicated to developing innovative energy education materials and training programs for teachers and students. Launched by Congressional Resolution in 1980, the NEED Program is now a dynamic force in more than 7,000 schools in 38 states. NEED is a 501c (3) non-profit education association funded by Federal and state government grants, corporate contributions, and local sponsors. The NEED Project's non-biased information on all aspects of energy, including production, consumption, and economic and environmental effects, gives students an understanding of the interrelationship between energy and the environment. More important, NEED's student-directed activities empower students to take active roles in educating their peers, families, and communities about energy issues and in identifying and solving problems unique to their communities. NEED's Energy Management for Schools program also allows many schools to participate in saving vital energy dollars for their districts. These new programs are correlated to the U.S. DOE EnergySmart Schools initiatives.

Appendix BContent Resources Making Standards Matter 1999 State Responses RHODE ISLAND October 15, 1999 Ms. Heidi Glidden Educational Issues Department American Federation of Teachers 555 New Jersey Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20001-2079 Dear Ms. Glidden: I am writing in response to the American Federation of Teachers' (AFT) draft on Rhode Island standards which will appear in the document Making Standards Matter 1999. While the information reported may be accurate according to the literal criteria explained in the section "Judging State Standards Reforms," Rhode Island has chosen to follow a different path with different criteria. The State is committed to achieving high standards for ALL children. I welcome the opportunity to explain our strategy which hopefully you will consider for publication. Your appraisal of the clarity and specificity of Rhode Island's standards is based on a premise significantly divergent from ours. The State has not mandated a specific set of standards to be used in all districts. Instead, Rhode Island has adopted frameworks which have standards embedded within them. The development of curriculum, by law, is governed by each local school committee. The frameworks are the products of statewide consensus processes and reflect the views of hundreds of classroom teachers, administrators, parents, and community members. These documents have been reviewed by experts outside the State as a routine part of their development and contain the level of detail that Rhode Islanders view as appropriate from the state level. They are meant to be used as guides for districts in developing their curricula.
