Check out: X11: Rail Traffic Controller Standard #11: “Ad-ing” to Geography Products Across Borders Complete Index “Ad-ing” to Geography Overview: Connections to the Curriculum: social studies, economics Connections to the National Geography Standards: Time: three hours Materials Required: a variety of magazines (weekly news magazines, N ATIONAL G EOGRAPHIC , T RAVELER , sports magazines, teen-oriented magazines) and newspapers, both national and local access to the Internet poster boards Objectives: Upon completing this lesson, students should be able to classify several economic activities and to analyze these spatial patterns. They will use advertisements for contemporary products to explore economic and geographic concepts presented in the lesson. Geographic Skills: Acquiring Geographic Information Organizing Geographic Information Answering Geographic Questions Analyzing Geographic Information S u g g e s t e d P r o c e d u r e Opening: Give each student a magazine and ask him or her to focus on the full-page and two-page advertisements. Ask students to make a list of all the advertised items. (Students may need some help identifying what is being advertised, as some ads focus on services or community goodwill efforts not easily recognized as products.) After students have made their individual lists, have them meet in groups of three to five to make a collective list and write it on poster boards. Post these lists in the room. Compare the lists. Discuss which items are common to all of the lists and which are unique. Introduce the idea that geographers and economists use four categories to identify certain types of economic activities: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary (see definitions at the end of this lesson). Briefly describe the differences among the four and provide examples. Have students create a four-column chart using the four categories as headings and work in pairs to classify each of the advertised items within this chart.

47. Teach Impressionism: Lesson Plans Before the Performance, lesson 9. Artist. Edgar Degas was born to an affluentParisian banking family and briefly studied law before turning to art. http://www.impressionism.org/teachimpress/browse/lesson9.htm

Teach Impressionism Index Lesson #9 Edgar Degas (duh-GAH) French, 1834-1917 Before the Performance , about 1896-98 Oil on paper laid on canvas 18 3/4 x 24 3/4 in. © National Gallery of Scotland, Edinburgh, Scotland Subject Before the Performance depicts a favorite Degas subject, an off-guard moment in the life of the Paris ballet dancer. As the last minutes to curtain time tick by, these little "rats" (a common nickname for the company's adolescent dancers) daydream, gossip, and adjust their costumes. By the 1890s, Degas had little need to sell his work, thanks to earlier commercial success and inherited wealth. He was able to take more risks artistically, as demonstrated in the moodiness of this painting. Notice how the dancers' faces are blank and expressionless; they stand to the rear of the picture space, as if alienated from the viewer. The artist no longer tried to render his subjects' feelings. "They call me the painter of dancers," Degas said, "without understanding that for me the dancer has been the pretext for painting beautiful fabrics and rendering movement." Style The artist was fascinated by the succession of movements and gestures - one reason, no doubt, that he painted dancers in so many positions. He liked the artistic tension of arms and legs straining and twisting at odd angles, apparent in the two dancers on the right of this painting. The figure bisected by the picture frame (left) and the slash of trees across the background show the influence of photography on Degas' compositions. Some photographs capture unusual, spontaneous compositions with figures, and objects cropped off rather than whole within the image. Blurred edges and delicate application of paint give the painting a two-dimensional, decorative feeling reminiscent of the Japanese prints so popular at the time. Degas also used more brilliant, expressive colors than in earlier works. The orange tutus are a soft smudge of paint, resembling the original pastel that inspired this painting.

Lesson Plans The Promise and Perils of E-Learning A critical look at the new technology By E. Wayne Ross T he digital revolution is transforming culture, communication, and commerce, but nowhere is faith in technology’s power more clearly demonstrated than in the classroom. E-learning is about much more than just plugging in a classroom computer. Some advocates predict that computers and modems will replace pencils and books and others believe that brick-and-mortar schools (and all but elite universities) will soon be obsolete. In a recent article for Education Week , Peter J. Stokes, vice president of Eduventures.com, a market-research company in Boston, describes e-learning as, “becoming literate [in] new mechanisms for communication: computer networks, multimedia, content portals, search engines, electronic libraries, distance learning, and web-enabled classrooms. E-Learning is characterized by speed, technological transformation, and mediated human interactions.” Christian Science Monitor that the public’s lack of questioning about technology is similar to the early euphoria over the automobile. “The benefits are personally experienced while the downside is more diffused,” says Scolve. It took decades before people started to balance the advantages of individual mobility and convenience provided by cars, with the collective impact of smog and unsustainable development patterns.

According to Youth and Money , a 1999 study conducted by the American Savings Education Council , fewer than half of U.S. high school and college students have a regular savings plan. Only about one-fourth of those students stick to a budget, and more than one-third don't keep track of their spending at all. Financial illiteracy isn't limited to students.
