Music is a universal language central to every culture of the world. It has been used to entertain, communicate, educate, inspire, and instill a sense of social and communal understanding. Rhyme, rhythm, song and movement have historically been used as powerful teaching tools that have infused the values, mores and customs of cultures and societies. Research evidence now suggests that the musical arts are central to the cognitive process and dramatically impact the functions and systems responsible for all learning. The human body is more than 70% water. It is a perfect conductor of vibration. Rhythmic patterns and sound waves have profound effects on the body and emotional states. Isolated tones, scales and simple tonal sequences have all been found to have an energizing effect on the body. Music changes the metabolism, affecting muscular energy by raising or lowering blood pressure. The heart, which normally beats between 70-80 times per minute, can be regulated by listening to faster or slower tempos. Music reduces mental fatigue, calms tension, focuses thinking and greatly impacts creativity and sensitivity. Listening to music also stimulates the release of endorphins which are produced in the brain to relieve pain and produce a euphoric state.

Particularly effective were the integrated curriculum and the three-hour blocks of time which gave students adequate time to explore topics of interest in depth, using reading, research, and communication skills to develop real-life projects. Projects included writing grant proposals and planning fund-raising events for a South Phoenix after-school program, promoting more equitable funding for women's sports on our campus, and planning an all-night " stay-in-school" event for at-risk elementary pre-service students. Success in these projects in the Dynamic Learning Program empowered students as learners and as citizens. Also, we SMCC faculty and students together became a real learning community, supporting each other as we learned from one another. J.D. Mildrew teaches the science/math block of the Dynamic Learning Group curriculum.

A brief history of the Department Otto Neugebauer , the founder and principal editor of the Zentralblatt fur Mathematik (in which all the world's publications in mathematics were reviewed), and already recognized as the world's leading historian of Egyptian, Mesopotamian, and Greek mathematics, accepted a position at Copenhagen where he had a decade previously spent a year working on linear differential equations with constant coefficients and almost periodic right-hand sides in collaboration with Harald Bohr, Niels' brother. Neugebauer continued to edit the Zentralblatt fur Mathematik while in Copenhagen, but also finished there his fundamental investigation of ancient mathematical texts from Mesopotamia, the three volumes of Mathematische Keilschrift-Texte, and conceived of the project of publishing collections of all extant and known texts on mathematics and astronomy in Akkadian, the standard Mesopotamian language in the last two millennia B.C., and in Egyptian. When the Nazis threatened Denmark in 1939, Dean Richardson at Brown together with the American Mathematical Society arranged for Neugebauer to come to Providence to teach in Brown's Department of Mathematics and to transform the Zentralblatt into the American-based Mathematical Reviews

When teachers take part in making important decisions, they are active problem solvers. Principals in these schools did more than hold informal, open-door discussions with teachers. They built formal decision-making structures. While teachers valued informal opportunities to express their opinions or to make suggestions, the existence of formal decision-making bodies was a more important symbol of their professionalism. At Brigham: We have the opportunity to influence things that are going on, such as electing the assistant principal. We have the opportunity to come up with meaningful plans and implement them. At City Park, the faculty saw the entire school structure as designed for empowerment:

Foreword by Susan Wally Preface: A Message from the Conference Sponsors Acknowledgements Framing the Debate ... About the Series: Perspectives in Public Policy Page 8 of 16 Five Key Issues: Equity Why is K-16 Collaboration Essential to Educational Equity? By Kati Haycock The Education Trust At every level of American educationelementary, secondary and postsecondaryminority and low-income youngsters are performing below their more advantaged counterparts. These students enter school somewhat behind other students and the gaps that separate them grow as they progress through the grades. By the end of high school, African-American, Latino and poor white youngsters have skills about the same as those of other youngsters at the end of middle school. Not surprisingly, fewer of these students enter college, more require expensive and time-consuming remediation, and disproportionately few graduate from college. Indeed, college completion rates among African-American and Latino young people are less than half of those among white young people, and young people of all races from high-income homes are nearly seven times as likely to graduate from college as young people from low-income homes. Regardless of one's vantage pointfrom higher education looking downward, from K-12 education looking upward, or from policymakers looking at bothit is almost immediately obvious that the problems in one sector cannot be solved without the cooperation of the other sector. Colleges and universities may want to increase the number of minorities entering the freshman year or to decrease the number of such students requiring remediation, for example, but meeting that goal is largely beyond their control. If the K-12 system doesn't produce more well-prepared minority graduates, the most that higher education can do is re-label the problem or move it around (push remedial courses from four-year to two-year colleges, for example). Likewise, the success of K-12's efforts to improve achievement and close gaps between groups is hugely dependent upon the quality and quantity of teachers produced by higher education.

Center aims to develop better math, science teachers In recent years, studies and news reports have trumpeted the dire need for more and better mathematics and science teachers in America's classrooms. A new center at the College of Education and Human Development hopes to alleviate this problem by helping universities produce better-prepared teachers in those areas and creating programs that help current mathematics and science teachers become more proficient. The Center for Research in Mathematics and Science Teacher Development has three goals: conduct research on mathematics and science teacher development, build model programs for teacher development and begin a doctoral program in mathematics and science education at U of L. "The center's mission aligns well with that of the College of Education and Human Development and the university as a whole," said Bill Bush, professor of mathematics education and the new center's director. "We want to help colleges be more efficient with their preparation of mathematics and science teachers and make sure their courses do what they are supposed to be doing." The center's activities will deal with issues teachers face at all stages of their careers to ensure they have and keep the skills necessary to teach mathematics and science.

Mail Barney Desroches Program Representative, Science Education Gateway (SEGway) at the University of California Berkeley's Space Sciences Laboratory, Berkeley, CA A Model of Collaboration The Science Education Gateway: An On-line Science Education Network Built on Museum Partnerships Abstract The phenomenal growth of the Internet and the wealth of resources from institutions such as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have the potential to significantly enhance science education in our schools. Forging strong collaborative partnerships between organizations such as science museums and NASA allow new space science discoveries to be transformed into well designed Web-based learning materials. These resources offer exciting new learning opportunities for teachers, students, and the general public. The Internet has also created a new means by which museums function and interconnect with other institutions. Interesting new work environments are opening up for museum professionals who enjoy blending education, public relations, science, and technology talents with museum and teaching experience. Technology has thereby expanded opportunities for professionals to find employment outside of the museum, but in contexts that support their mission. Such openings, for example, can be found in collaborative partnerships with museums established by universities, school districts, and even the National Aeronautics and Space Administration.

The increase in access to robotic telescopes and to astronomy databases is making research by school and undergraduate students ever more feasible. In addition, useful research can be done with very modest telescope systems, of the sort a school could afford.
