INDIAN RIVER COUNTY In a science fair experiment inspired by CC!, a ten-year-old has shown that people are more honest when they think others may be watching. Henry Weathersbee wondered what would happen if he put money in various locations on school campuses. So he placed 18 Ziploc bags, each containing $2, in public areas (open spaces and media centers) and private ones (bathrooms) at three local schools. The results? Students returned nine of the bags, or 50 percent. But they turned in 66 percent of bags from public areas and only 17 percent from private ones. Henry felt some students thought that if no one knew they took the money, it was all right to keep it. He also expected more overall honesty. He had predicted students would turn in 70 percent of the bags instead of 50 percent Henry decided to do the experiment in November 2002 after participating in his school's CC! program, and he based his project on the Pillar of Trustworthiness. He said he likes the program, especially discussions on making ethical decisions.

ERIC Identifier: Publication Date: Author: Lance, Keith Curry Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Information and Technology Syracuse NY. The Impact of School Library Media Centers on Academic Achievement. ERIC Digest. THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC INTRODUCTION Advocates of school library media programs have long been convinced of the relationship between quality library media programs and academic achievement. Most studies of this relationship were conducted between 1959 and 1979, were limited in scope, and usually used a small number of subjects in a limited geographical area. This study was designed both to update the existing research and to examine the relationship between library media programs and student achievement. METHODOLOGY Ideally, schools included in the sample for a study such as this would be selected on a random, stratified, or quota basis. None of these sampling designs was possible, because schools included in the sample had to have library media centers that responded to the 1989 survey of school library media centers in Colorado and had to use the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills (ITBS) or Tests of Achievement and Proficiency (TAP). These data were available for only 221 of 1,331 public elementary and secondary schools in Colorado during the 1988-89 school year. The study relied entirely upon available data about school library media centers and their school and community contexts to predict norm-referenced test scores.

Sunshine State Standards The Sunshine State Standards were approved by the State Board of Education in 1996 to provide expectations for student achievement in Florida. The Standards approved in 1996 were written in seven subject areas, each divided into four separate grade clusters (PreK-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12). While educators implement the Sunshine State Standards, the ITRC has been developing tools and resources to assist them in helping students meet the standards. The following resources are currently available: Florida Sunshine State Standards Web Resources , a webpage of resources related to the Sunshine State Standards for teachers Sunsations , a super-database of Florida's K-12 Sunshine State Standards and related resources.
