http://www.usccb.org/prolife/issues/bioethic/fact598.htm

Extractions: Raises Pro-Life Issues T he use of cloning to produce "Dolly" the sheep has prompted a public debate about cloning humans. This issue has quickly become linked with the issues of abortion and embryo research. Cloning is a way of producing a genetic twin of an organism, without sexual reproduction. The method used to produce Dolly the sheep is called "somatic cell nuclear transfer": the nucleus of a body cell ("somatic cell") is transferred into an unfertilized egg whose nucleus has been removed or rendered inactive. A tiny electric pulse may then stimulate development of the resulting embryo, which is an almost exact genetic twin of the creature that supplied the nucleus. It may be technically possible to use this procedure to reproduce human beings. A great deal. Cloning a human being or other large organism begins by artificially producing an embryo of that species. To produce one live sheep, "Dolly," scientists created 277 sheep embryos; 276 died or were discarded. Experiments in human cloning would involve the creation and destruction of human embryos on a massive scale. Didn't the National Bioethics Advisory Commission (NBAC) propose a ban on cloning?

Major Debate 2. International Bureau Of Education. International Activities. Int
Mr Federico Mayor, DirectorGeneral of UNESCO, led this debate. Finally, thereare follow-up activities, such as the education of demobilized forces.
http://www.ibe.unesco.org/International/ICE/45major2.htm

Extractions: 'If we really want to protect diversity and to awaken our potential to become masters of our own lives so as to design our own future, there should not be a uniform and rigid education system, but to the greatest extent possible a personalized approach. We must have teachers who follow the development of each child and awaken the potential in each student, because each of them is unique.' 'I consider that the importance of teachers in inculcating a culture of peace comes to the fore in three important areas: first , it is long-term actions which promote the prevention of conflicts and encourage knowledge of others. It is not by building a fortress around our culture that we protect our identity. Today, each culture must occupy the immense space of culture throughout the world. We no longer represent a single territory, a piece of land. The best way forward is therefore interaction and tolerance. It means knowing about and listening to others, listening more than we have done in the past.'
Mining: Activities: Uranium And The Environment: The Debate
Mining Activity Uranium and the Environment. Activity 2 - The DebateUsing Nuclear Energy in Saskatchewan. Background Information.
http://interactive.usask.ca/ski/mining/activities/uran_enviro2.html

Extractions: Mining Activity - Uranium and the Environment Activity #2 - The Debate: Using Nuclear Energy in Saskatchewan Background Information It has been proposed by some groups of people that Saskatchewan should use nuclear energy for electrical generation. There have been many news articles written about this issue, illustrating both negative and positive opinions on the subject. Views made from these articles are listed for you. Use these ideas to help answer the question posed in the activity. Viewpoints Positive: There is a growing need for electrical power. There will be less atmospheric pollution in the form of acid rain and the green house effect because nuclear energy generating stations emit little sulphur dioxide and carbon dioxide. Saskatchewan coal is high in uranium content so it is already emitting radiation into the atmosphere when it is burned. There is a limited supply of coal, natural gas and crude oil left, compared to uranium and the amount needed to provide for our energy needs. The risk of a nuclear accident is small when compared to the long term damage to the environment caused by coal-fired plants.

http://www.un.org/News/Press/docs/2001/gaef2965.doc.htm

Extractions: Among other conclusions, it was found that the right policy mix and institutional capacity could and did significantly reduce poverty, he said. However, it was not clear whether there was a consensus within the United Nations development system on how to eradicate poverty. Some evaluators also questioned whether that system had the expertise in the field to address poverty effectively. While there had never been such a consensus for poverty eradication, the gap between official rhetoric and concrete measures had seldom been so conspicuous. The former Chairman of the Development Assistance Committee/Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Expert Group on Aid Evaluation, Haven North, said there was a feeling that poverty eradication and capacity-building were good words for rhetoric. However, when you got down to actually seeing what was being done in the field, you wondered who was really taking those concepts seriously. Among all of the advocacy and policy conferences, there was a need to move beyond lip service and make poverty eradication a real policy goal.

Extractions: 1. Students will prepare information and participate in a well-planned debate. 2. Students will create an original game for the purpose of reviewing important environmental concerns. 3. Students will prepare and perform a pre-written play on the effects of air pollutants on our environment. The language arts portion of this unit revolves around games. The first activity involves debating, sometimes called "the game of wits." Debating has its own set of rules, resulting in winners and losers. Activity 2 offers the students a chance to create their own set of rules for an original game. The optional activity suggested is a play which allows the students to creatively present one issue that affects us all. The focus of these activities is on critical and creative thinking. Students will have the opportunity to express themselves in oral and written form. In order for students to lead productive, healthy lives, they need to be able to communicate effectively. This includes having the ability to agree and disagree with others. It is an important skill for students to be able to create a convincing argument based on factual information with the absence of emotion. Discussion and debate are the key problem-solving tools of our way of life. Debate helps students become effective problem-solving members of our society. To help the students develop this skill, they will organize critical information on energy topics and participate in structured debates.

Extractions: Debate Continues Over Space For Student Activities By Kim Hye-youn Student Editor The opening of the Ewha-POSCO Hall freed up four rooms in the Student Union Building, intensifying the debate over their use, and a larger debate over "Ja-chi Gong-gan,"space for student activities, has been re-ignited in the rows between the Student Government Association (SGA) and the school administration. During the first round of the yearly school administration-SGA conferences held on March 18 in room 101 of Morris Hall (housing the College of Home Science and Management), the SGA requested the administrative rights of all the empty rooms in the Student Union Building. It also requested that the departmental students' common rooms of the Colleges of Social Sciences and Business Administration be moved to the Ewha-POSCO Hall. Both requests were refused by the school administration on the grounds of a shortage in the number of lecture rooms. So far, two of the empty rooms in the Student Union Building have been designated as club activities rooms, but the use of the other two rooms have not yet been determined by the school authorities. Also, the administrative offices and the departmental student council offices of the Colleges of Social Sciences and Business Administration have been moved, whereas the majors?rooms of the two colleges have been excluded in the space allocation process of the Ewha-POSCO Hall.
Contribution To The Debate On The Activities Of The OECD

Extractions: Contribution to the debate on the activities of the OECD 10 September 2001 Committee on Culture, Science and Education Rapporteur: Mr Josep Varela i Serra, Spain, Liberal, Democratic and Reformers Group Introduction 1. In preparation for writing this opinion, on 9 July 2001 I visited the OECD together with the Secretary of the Committee, Mr Ary, where we met the Director for Education, Employment, Labour and Social Affairs, Mr John Martin, the Deputy Director for Education, Mr Barry McGaw, the Head of the Education and Training Division, Mr Abrar Hasan, the Head of the Centre for Educational Research and Innovation (CERI), Mr Jarl Bengtsson, and Principal Administrative Officer Mr Ian Whitman. I would like to thank them for their co-operation and the very useful information they gave us. 2. In his excellent report on the OECD and the world economy, presented on behalf of the Committee on Economic Affairs and Development, Petr Mateju emphasises the central role of human capital and knowledge in fostering sustainable economic growth and points out that this is a priority for the OECD. It is more than that: the OECD officials we met confirmed that for the first time in its history, education has been placed at the top of the organisations priorities. 3. As the draft resolution quite rightly puts it, the new world economy is increasingly based on knowledge and the ability to organise people around it and the OECD countries must therefore further increase investment in education at all levels. The Committee on Culture, Science and Education, which for a long time has repeatedly reminded the Assembly of the importance of education for the future, cannot but vigorously endorse those words. It also endorses the words of our colleague Mr Mateju related to the Bologna Declaration on the need for a common European area of higher education and on the importance of functional literacy to strengthen democracy.
