The guide is divided into three sections representing classroom material, outreach activities, and professional resources. Each section is subdivided by resource type. Larger sections use categories to facilitate location of material by curriculum field; the typical arrangement of categories is General, Anthropology/Cultures, Civics, Economics, Geography, and History. Smaller sections are alphabetically arranged by the title of the resource, organization, or program. The first section covers "Classroom Instructional Resources," such as textbooks, trade books, multimedia resources, curriculum guides, journals, Web sites, dramatizations and model programs, games and simulations, and human resources. The second section covers "Outreach Activities," which typically involve experiences with learning sites or programs which are located or originate outside the school building. The third section covers "Professional Development and Planning Resources" for teachers. The index provides integrated access by subject and organization to all 845 entries.

Teaching social studies requires a familiarity with local, national and global resources. Teachers have a wide range of choices in selecting instructional materials and locating suitable curriculum units. The guide is divided into three sections representing classroom material, outreach activities and professional resources. Each section is subdivided by resource type; larger sections use categories to facilitate location of material by curriculum field. The typical arrangement of categories is General, Anthropology/Cultures, Civics, Economics, Geography and History. Smaller sections are alphabetically arranged by the title of the resource, organization or program. The first section covers Classroom Instructional Resources. In the case of Textbooks and Trade-Book Sources and Multi-media Resources the guide lists bibliographies, indexes and review sources which may assist evaluation; it does not provide a full listing of actual texts and media. The section on Curriculum Guides introduces teachers to information databases which can assist them in locating curriculum sources published by state, local, and federal educational agencies and private associations on virtually any subject and at any level they may wish to teach. Journals are more fully covered with notations of locallibrary holdings, and audience specification (professional and student/teacher) and indexing sources. World Wide Web Sites are also given broad coverage, however this medium is so extensive that any listing is bound to be selective and partial; the guide has selected durable and well-rated sites. Dramatizations and Model Programs provide a valuable enrichment source; teachers should inquire about new programs, for many drama groups have changing venues. The section on Games and Simulations is primarily oriented toward reference and review literature to assist material selection. Human Resources offer a great range of possibilities; Rhode Island is a microcosm of the world with great cultural diversity among its residents and many international students who study in the colleges and universities of the state. The second section covers Outreach Activities which typically involve experiences with learning sites or programs which are located or originate outside the school building. The list of Field Trip opportunities covers many of the major social studies-related sites in Southeastern New England within a 100 mile radius of Rhode Island. Teachers in this region are extremely fortunate because of the rich diversity of museums, economic and political organizations, and historic sites. The list of Libraries covers all local public libraries where students often seek resource material for papers and projects; an attempt was made to mention the highlights of collections as they pertain to social studies, however, there is likely to be more socially relevant material in each particular 5 2 Introduction collection than cited here. Special libraries like the Curriculum Resources Center at Rhode Island College and other public college/university libraries where teachers can research or borrow material are also listed. Student Activity Programs such as award programs, contests and competitions are selectively covered: there are many diverse opportunities in this area with new announcements coming frequently in the newsletters of professional organizations. Student Exchange and Travel Opportunities are extensive; the guide lists reference guide books that will help students, parents or teachers locate appropriate programs; some of these sources also provide basic information about how to proceed with arranging such experiences. The third section covers Professional Development and Planning Resources for teachers. Professional Organizations are a vital source of information, new publications, conferences and teacher education activities; all the major social studies organizations are included in this guide along with a selection of other more specialized groups. The section on Professional Standards Literature incorporates a combined list of very current professional books which expound the latest trends and basic literature on the new national standards in each field of social studies. Curriculum Development and Enrichment Projects offers an extensive list of many different organizations, centers and innovative projects which support teachers with literature, curriculum units, consultation services, workshops and other services. Finally, the section on Professional Growth Opportunities for Teachers covers awards, conferences, exchange opportunities, grants, institutes and study programs which provide new incentives and enrichment projects that may improve instructional competence. The index provides integrated access by subject and organization to all 845 entries of the guide. Teachers interested in particular subjects, persons, micro- topics, different types of instructional materials, local town resources, specific agencies, associations, or projects will find that the index can save time in searching this document. 6 3 1.Text and Trade Book Sources Section Contents: Textbooks 1-3 Reference books 4-11 Supplemental Reading 12-34 Book Review Sources 35-50 Textbooks. 1.

It seems hard to believe that it was just a few years ago that I welcomed you to Roger Williams University at freshman Convocation. And while much of the tradition and ceremony seems the same - the marching, caps and gowns, speeches, cheering and tears - much more has changed. The University has grown tremendously in your time here, both physically and in reputation. We have earned our place regionally, nationally and internationally as a respected name in a variety of academic disciplines. We have been engaged in the world through the articulation of our core values - love of learning, preparation for future careers and study, student­ faculty research, service, a global perspective and civil discourse. In many ways our transformation can be attributed to students like you, who have carried those values with you in your journeys.

    The Biology of Marine Mammals

    Romero, A. 2009. The Biology of Marine Mammals. The Biology of Marine Mammals Aldemaro Romero, Ph.D. Arkansas State University Jonesboro, AR 2009 2 INTRODUCTION Dear students, 3 Chapter 1 Introduction to Marine Mammals 1.1. Overture Humans have always been fascinated with marine mammals. These creatures have been the basis of mythical tales since Antiquity. For centuries naturalists classified them as fish. Today they are symbols of the environmental movement as well as the source of heated controversies: whether we are dealing with the clubbing pub seals in the Arctic or whaling by industrialized nations, marine mammals continue to be a hot issue in science, politics, economics, and ethics. But if we want to better understand these issues, we need to learn more about marine mammal biology. The problem is that, despite increased research efforts, only in the last two decades we have made significant progress in learning about these creatures. And yet, that knowledge is largely limited to a handful of species because they are either relatively easy to observe in nature or because they can be studied in captivity. Still, because of television documentaries, ‘coffee-table’ books, displays in many aquaria around the world, and a growing whale and dolphin watching industry, people believe that they have a certain familiarity with many species of marine mammals (for more on the relationship between humans and marine mammals such as whales, see Ellis 1991, Forestell 2002). As late as 2002, a new species of beaked whale was being reported (Delbout et al. 2002), in 2003 a new species of baleen whale was described (Wada et al.
