Extractions: Yvonne Belanger Introduction Over the past decade, many schools have investigated the educational possibilities of mobile computing. More recently, an increasing number of K-12 schools are implementing the use of laptop computers. Improvements in portable computing technology and examples of successful pilot programs using laptops and other portables have inspired many K-12 schools to consider laptops for their students. Emergence of Laptops in Schools Organized laptop programs in higher education date as far back as 1988 when Drew University in Madison, New Jersey, began providing notebook computers (paid for from tuition) to all incoming freshman. Now more than 50 postsecondary institutions worldwide require at least some of their students to use laptops (Brown, 1999). Throughout the 1990s, a number of private schools in the United States and abroad began requiring ownership of laptops. In 1996, inspired by the successful use of laptops in Australian schools, the Microsoft Corporation and Toshiba began one of the most high-profile programs now underway, currently known as Microsoft's Anytime Anywhere Learning (AAL) Program (Healey, 1999). Technology corporations, such as NetSchools (http://www.studypro.com/), NoteSys Inc. ( http://www.notesys.com/

Advanced Education Task Force February 2, 2000 Texas Comptroller Carole Keeton Rylander Hears Education Concerns in the Brazos Valley The future of education hinges on the direction of high tech and how it is used from high school through college, according to testimony at Texas State Comptroller Carole Keeton Rylander's recent e-Texas hearing. Dr. Jim Scales, superintendent for College Station ISD, describes how his district has integrated technology into all of its schools. Texas' economy is increasingly dependent on knowledge-based industries, which demand a well-educated workforce. Even typically blue-collar professions, such as auto mechanics and factory workers, now often require higher-level skills, such as the ability to use a computer. Texas' ability to retain these industries and maintain its economic growth will depend largely on its ability to provide a qualified workforce. Complicating this challenge is the fact that a large and growing share of Texas students come from economically or educationally disadvantaged backgrounds. Since the early 1980s, a wave of school reform efforts has rolled across the country, seeking to address public school systems that are widely viewed as low performing. Many reform efforts have targeted the problems in urban school districts. The overhaul of the Chicago public school system is one example. In Milwaukee, Cleveland and Florida, voucher programs have been instituted, allowing students in low-performing schools to attend private schools with tax support.

Extractions: In June 2001, the TEXAS COUNCIL FOR THE HUMANITIES (TCH) will announce the names of six Texas K-12 teachers to receive Outstanding Teaching of the Humanities Awards. Each winner will receive a plaque and a cash award of $2,000, of which $1,000 will go to the teacher to further professional development, and $1,000 will go to the teacher's school for the purchase of humanities instructional material and/or for the improvement of humanities courses and programs. In addition, up to eight teachers will be selected to receive Honorable Mention plaques. Since 1990, the Outstanding Teaching of the Humanities Awards program has drawn nominations for 1,174 Texas teachers representing 870 schools from 348 towns and cities. Is there an outstanding teacher of the humanities in your school or district? TCH is pleased to announce the launch of an additional annual award, the Linden Heck Howell Award for Outstanding Teaching of Texas History. The winner of this award, which honors a former chair of the Council's board of directors, will receive a plaque and a cash award of $1,000 for expenses related to professional development. The announcement date, selection criteria, and nomination deadline for the award are identical to the Outstanding Teaching of the Humanities Awards, except that nominations are limited to full-time teachers who teach one or more courses in Texas history.

Financing Program Discounts Discounts on Telecommunication Services Is your school receiving discounts for regulated telecommunications services? Many educators are unaware of state-regulated programs available to them. These discounts can allow your district to maximize its telecommunications budget. Sprint Local Telephone Division (LTD) files tariffs in each of its 18 in-franchise territory states for all local services. These tariffs, a matter of public record, establish the pricing for state-regulated services. In four states, NE KS MO , and TX , Sprint LTD offers telecommunications services discounts to schools, libraries, healthcare/hospitals, and government as defined by the state public utility commissions (PUC). Discounts may be provided to end-users (not other carriers) for plain old telephone service (POTS), broadband data (T1s), ISDN PRI/BRI, and frame relay (FR.). Discounts vary by state and in some states there are no special tariffs to provide discounts. In some states telecommunications are purchased off a state contract where special pricing was already provided. These discounts are separate from the Federal E-Rate discounts. This information will provide a summary of existing discount programs, some of which require schools to complete an affidavit before the services can be ordered. We recommend checking this site before obtaining pricing from a Sprint Representative to ensure the discounted price is offered. It is also important to check this site before the Federal E-Rate filing period each year, beginning in September. Discounts are provided in the following states:
