In 1994, the Hawaii legislature passed a charter school bill to grant four-year charters to 25 public schools statewide. Under pressure from the state Board of Education, the legislature tried to avoid passing "charter school" legislation, so the bill refers to the charter schools as "student-centered" schools.

Certainly not school teachers, who can't afford to waste precious classroom time while students stare at a half-blank computer screen, waiting for a virtual museum tour to finish loading. But if all goes as planned, K-12 students in California may soon have access to an array of rich content previously unavailable to them due to the limitations of slow bandwidth. The Digital California Project provides $3.6 million a year for a broadband network to wire all of the state's 11,000 K-12 schools. Funded by the state of California, the project is scheduled to be completed by June 2002. The DCP will work in conjunction with programs being developed by The Corporation for Education Network Initiatives in California, a nonprofit organization that helps educational institutions acquire high-capacity Internet communications services.

Extractions: We help folks understand how complex natural systems work, from basic biology lessons to ethno-botany, the chemicals in our environment as endocrine disruptors, Gaia, and explorations in systems thinking and self-organization. Inevitably, we enter the world of new paradigms, where waste is a resource, bacteria and the micro-cosmos seem to rule the world, and where people come to realize that humans can indeed restore nature through simple measures in our everyday lives.

Extractions: Associated Press As the last of Hawaii's children start the new school year tomorrow, a greater percentage of them will be doing so in private schools than their mainland peers. An Associated Press analysis of estimates from 2000 supplemental Census Bureau surveys shows Hawaii has the highest percentage of K-12 private school enrollment among the 50 states. In Hawaii, slightly under one in five students is enrolled in a private school, a rate surpassed only by that of Washington, D.C. Hawaii climbed from fourth place behind Delaware, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C., in an analysis of similar data from the 1990 Census. Local educators say it's not clear whether the jump had more to do with general population trends than changing attitudes about public or private education in Hawaii. While K-12 public school enrollment declined from about 189,000 to 183,000 in the past five years partly a function of slowed population growth private school enrollment remained relatively steady at about 35,000. The Census estimates put Hawaii's public school population at 180,408 and its private school population at 42,298. Although the figures are based on survey results and differ from the hard data available from the state and private schools, experts say the responses are useful for examining educational trends.

Extractions: In the 1990's a National Science Foundation study found that U.S. middle schoolers lag behind their peers in other countries in science and math preparation. The findings provoked national concern that U.S. students will be ill prepared to compete in the high-tech global economy. Many educators believe that the problem is that students need to be more involved in real scientific inquiry, solving dilemmas they find in the world around them. David Sommerstein reports on two Clarkson University programs in local schools that are giving kids hands-on experience in the world of science...

GeoScience: K-12 Resources GeoScience topics and links for Alberta k-12 Science classes, and Calgary, Albertan, Canadian and Category Science Earth Sciences Geology Education Pre-college related to k12 education in schools are best These topics are the prescribed Albertak-12 GeoScience curriculum.); tables and wind erosion from soest.hawaii.edu http://www.cuug.ab.ca:8001/~johnstos/geosci.html
Extractions: This "page" is an ongoing project to see what relevant K-12 GeoScience resources are available "out there". This page (since it sits in Calgary ) has a definite petroleum or 'soft rock' bias. Also, since we're "in" Alberta, one of the initial focuses will start from Alberta Education's curriculum. This prescribes GeoScience topics in Science classes in Grade 3/7/8/11/12. Another aim of this page is to identify Calgary, Albertan, Canadian and International field trips and GeoScience sites of interest. I've also included general Earth Science Meta-links. Also the hope is that classroom projects, activities, and other GeoScience information produced by students will be pointed to or exhibited here. The overall point is to foster and facilitate dialogue among the 'greater' GeoScience community. [Top] [Grade 3/7/8/11/12] [Cal/Ab/Cdn/Earth Sites] [MetaLinks] All suggestions, materials,etc. to johnstos@cuug.ab.ca will be appreciated. Communication by students, teachers and other GeoScience Web authors is especially desired, in order to make this and other pages more useful to young GeoScientists. "The world we live in presents an endless variety of fascinating problems which excite our wonder and curiosity ... They indicate that - in general terms - scientific investigation is concerned with the manifestations and transformations of matter and energy in space and time. Put more briefly and philosophically, science is concerned with relationships between events." (from "Principles of Physical Geology", Arthur Holmes)
