David Lockard A JOINT PROJECT of the American Association for theAdvancement of Science and the Science Teaching Center,University of Maryland INTRODUCTION It is our pleasure tl present this fifth in a series of annual reports dealing with curriculum developments in science and mathe- matics. The original operations of the Clearinghouse began in 1962 at the University of Maryland and each year since, a report has been issued. The first three reports were concerned only with projects in the United States. However, it soon became apparent as a result of increased overseas interest in American developments and increas- ing curriculum activity throughout many areas of the world, thatan international treatment was warranted. Shortly thereafter, the Director met with Dr. Albert Baez and the UNESCO science education staff in Paris and with members of the National Science Foundation staff in Washington.As a result of these and other meetings the International Clearinghouse became a realityln 1965 and the fourth annual report was expanded to include curriculum developments through- out the world. Unfortunately, the supply of that and all earlier reports has already been exhausted. The prime intent of the International Clearinghouse is topro- mote better understanding by helping to establish and maintainco- operative relationships among all the curriculum project participants throughout the world through dissemination of informationon the science and mathematics curriculum activities. The fine cooperation from all individuals concerned has made the project thesuccess it is and we hope that this cooperation will continue in the future. The Report is designed to include projects of an on-goingor recently influential nature that have relevance for others in science and mathematics curriculum work. Each year additional project sum- maries have been added to the report as their workprogresses and some are deleted as their work has been completed. There are some- times projects that are omitted, not by design but by lack of in- formation, and it is hoped that the readers of this publication will furnish information on any projects that seem to fit the criteria. Since the report is being published several months earlier than it was last year, there has been a need to reprint some reports that appeared in the 1966 publication simply because thenew information has not yet arrived at our Center.Apologies are given to any of the project directors who may have mailed new reports which have not yet been received by us. The information as printed is normal- ly in the project director's own words as his response toa question- naire sent by the Clearinghouse Director. If additional information is needed on any one project the reader is asked to contact the project directors themselves, Although a master set of materials is maintained at the Information Clearinghouse for perusal byany visitors to the Center, we do not maintain any stocks of sample materials and these can only be furnished by the project directors. The International Clearinghouse is one activity of the Science Teaching Center of the University of Maryland and is carried outas a joint project with the Commission on Science Education of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the National Science Foundation. A description of the totaloperation of the Science Teaching Center isincluded on a following page in answer to numerous requestsfrom readers trying tounderstand our overall operation. We encourage visitors to come tothe Science Teaching Center to see the InternationalClearinghouse part of our operation, as well as ourother activities, such as ourreviewing of science teaching materials for theNational Science Teachers Association. Acknowledgments to individuals whoassist in this Report must, of necessity, be many. Obviously, the report could not exist with- out the fine cooperationof the project directors and theirstaffs. We are particularly indebted tothem. In addition, there are the numerous individualsassociated with organizations whohave fur- nished materials, as well as namesand addresses of those to whom we shouldwrite. This group would include those onthe staffs of the American Associationfor the Advancement of Science, theInter- national and the Course ContentImprovement Section of the National Science Foundation, the UnitedStates Office of Education, the President's Office of Science and Technology,the United States State Department, the Organizationfor Economic Cooperation and Development, the Pan-American Union, manyforeign embassies, and the staff at UNESCO in Paris. The persons who did much of the work putting this fifth Reporttogether are two members of my staff at the Science Teaching Center,Harold Gray and Maria Penny. I am par- ticularly indebted to them forthis activity and to our two fine secretaries, Mrs. Sharon Dormanand Mrs. Louise Wells, who handled the final typing as well asthe rough copy of the Report. In addi- tion, since our InternationalClearinghouse is only a part of our year-round operation, we are indebted to ourScience Teaching Center colleagues who interact with this projectand frequently host our guests. These staff members includeGlenn Blough, Carolyn Boyette, Philip DiLavore, Richard Ehrbaker,Marjorie Gardner, Marlene Murray, Herman Ruoff, Sherry Shearer,and David Williams. Without the com- bined help of all these individuals, ourCenter operation could not be the success it is. Any credit for the value of this reportshould go to the staff. Any criticisms and constructivesuggestions should come to theClearinghouse Director. Single copies of this 1967 Report willbe furnished free to an individual as long as the supplylasts. Such requests should be addressed to Dr. J. David Lockard,'-Director, International Clearing- house on Science and MathematicsCurriculum Developments, Science Teaching Center, University of Maryland,College Park, Maryland, U. S. A. 20740. J.

Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 2008 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON, D.C. SAMUEL EPSTEIN December 9, 1919–September 17, 2001 BY HUGH P. TAYLOR JR . AND ROBERT N. CLAYTON AMUEL EPSTEIN WAS ONE of the principal geochemists re- Ssponsible for pioneering discoveries regarding variations of the stable isotopes of oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, silicon, and calcium on Earth, the Moon, and in meteorites. He was fortunate to have been at the forefront of great advances in the physics and chemistry of isotopes that were an outgrowth of atomic energy investigations in the wake of World War II. Although several scientists in the 1950s and 1960s recognized the power of stable isotope measurements to solve scientific problems, it was Sam more than anyone else who had the energy and insight to carry this out in such fundamental ways and in so many diverse fields, including: paleothermometry of carbonate fossils; geothermometry of minerals and rocks; origins of natural waters, including fluid inclusions in minerals; paleoclimatology records in glaciers, continental ice sheets, and tree rings; biological processes including living plants and animals, fossil plants and animals, and paleodiets; petroleum and natural gas; hydrothermal ore deposits; water and rock interactions; oceanography; meteorology; gases in Earth’s atmosphere; weathering and soil formation; studies of meteorites, lunar rocks, and tektites; and studies of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks and their constituent minerals.

  • Albert Vinicio Baez and the Promotion of Science Education in the Developing World 1912–2007
    Prospects (2007) 37:369–381 DOI 10.1007/s11125-008-9041-6 PROFILE OF EDUCATORS Albert Vinicio Baez and the promotion of science education in the developing world 1912–2007 Fernando Reimers Published online: 29 April 2008 Ó UNESCO IBE 2008 Alberto Vinicio Baez was a pioneer in the field of international science education. He was a physicist who played a leading role in UNESCO’s efforts to support science education globally. His research in the physics of light led to the development of an X-ray micro- scope and of imaging optics. He participated in projects to improve science education in high schools in the United States in the 1950s, a period of intense interest on this topic. In 1961 he was invited to join UNESCO to establish the Division of Science Education. In this position he wrote numerous papers, organized and participated in regional and international conferences, and studied and supported the development of projects to advance science and technology education in developing countries, with a special focus in secondary schools. The programme established the importance of science education, developed low-cost science kits, films and a structured, high-quality curriculum to support physics teachers in Latin America, chemistry education in Asia, biology education in Africa and mathematics education in the Arab States. Baez’s chief intellectual contributions to the field of science education centered on the development and dissemination of the ideas that it was necessary to democratize access to high-quality education in developing countries, that science education should focus on developing the capabilities needed to solve practical problems, and on the role of inter- disciplinarity and social responsibility as core foundations of science education.

Martinez, Project Director Denver Public Schools, Denver, Colorado ABOUT THE ALMA PROJECT The Alma Curriculum and Teacher Training Project The Alma Curriculum and Teacher Training Project was made possible with funding from a Goals 2000 Partnerships for Educating Colorado Students grant awarded to the Denver Public Schools in July 1996. The Project is currently being funded by the Denver Public Schools. The intent of the Project is to have teachers in the Denver Public Schools develop instructional units on the history, contributions, and issues pertinent to Latinos and Hispanics in the southwest United States. Other experts, volunteers, and community organizations have also been directly involved in the development of content in history, literature, science, art, and music, as well as in teacher training. The instructional units have been developed for Early Childhood Education (ECE) through Grade 12. As instructional units are developed and field-tested, feedback from teachers is extremely valuable for making any necessary modifications in the topic development of future units of study. Feedback obtained in the spring of 1999, from 48 teachers at 14 sites, was compiled, documented and provided vital information for the field testing report presented to the Board of Education.

  • Joan Baez Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around
    AIN’T GONNA LET NOBODY TURN ME AROUND: JOAN BAEZ RAISES HER VOICE Liz Thomson The Sixties: Take Thirteen Open University, 8 December 2000 Revised December 2003 1 Ain’t Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around: Joan Baez raises her voice Shortly after Saigon fell on 30 August 1975 and the last American helicopter had lifted unceremoniously off the roof of the US Embassy, 100,000 people filled the Sheep Meadow in New York’s Central Park for a ‘War is Over’ rally. Pete Seeger, Odetta and Joan Baez were among the performers. The event was organised by Phil Ochs, writer of ‘There but for fortune,’ perhaps the most compassionate protest song ever written. It was intended as a celebration of the end of America’s controversial involvement in South-East Asia. Vietnam had galvanised American youth, had been both fuel for the protest movement and the glue that held it together. When the war ‘ended’, most of those who’d sung and spoken so eloquently against its injustices moved on. One who didn’t was Joan Baez. The singer had served two jail terms for ‘aiding and abetting’ draft resisters and had spent 12 days in Hanoi during Nixon’s bombardment of the city in December 1972. Baez had accepted an invitation from the Committee for Solidarity with the American People and joined a small party that included an Episcopalian minister, a Maoist anti-war veteran and Columbia law professor, Telford Taylor, an ex-brigadier general and Nuremburg prosecutor. The Committee’s aim was to maintain friendly relations with the Vietnamese people even as the United States continued to burn their villages.
