A Short Guide for Participants of the 15Th International Stellarator Workshop, 3Rd to 7Th October 2005 A Short Guide For Participants of the 15th International Stellarator Workshop, 3rd to 7th October 2005 The Local Organizing Committee is providing this short guide for participants. We hope that it will be useful to 15th International Stellarator Workshop participants. It gives information on how to get to and from the airport, Hotel Convencion and Ciemat as well as other details on the Workshop. There is also some basic eating out advice. We hope that it is of use to our guests. Registration Registration for the 15th International Stellarator Workshop will take place in the lobby of the Hotel Convencion between 4 and 8 pm on the Sunday afternoon. Registered participants will be provided with a badge for entering CIEMAT. There will also be the possibility to register at Ciemat on the Monday morning. However, as the Opening Ceremony begins at 8:45 am there will be little time to register many participants. Therefore the LOC would appreciate if all participants register on the Sunday afternoon in Hotel Convencion. Getting to Hotel Convencion from the Madrid Airport Madrid International Airport (at Barajas) is located 13 kilometres (eight miles) north east of central Madrid and provides a choice of convenient transport options to Hotel Convencion. By Metro First, Metro Line 8 (located in Terminal 2 of Madrid Airport) takes 12 minutes to Nuevos Ministerios. Tickets can be bought at automatic machines or from ticket desks in the station. The cost is 1 Euro for a single ride or 5.80 Euro for 10 rides. From Nuevos Ministerios take Line 6 to O’Donnell (this is a loop line so make sure to take the short way). From O’Donnell to Hotel Convencion is a <5 minute (just one block) walk along Calle O’Donnell. A Metro map has been Hotel Convencion attached.

These coaches will depart from the hotel at 7:45 sharp in order to avoid the worst of the morning traffic. Furthermore, two coaches will return participants to Hotel Convencion each evening, except Friday. Special coach arrangements have been made for Friday afternoon to take participants to the Hotel Convencion or to the airport.

Madrid is the capital of Spain and is located on the center of the country. More than three million people live in the city and six millions in the metropolitan area. A lot of this people are inmigrants and many spaniards are from elsewhere.That´s why people in Madrid are very friendly to fellow outsiders. It's widely agreed that you can be a "madrileño" without being born in Madrid! Not all the people can speak english, but they´ll try to help tourists with a bunch of words or by gestures. The history of Madrid is an odd one. An insignificant medieval city, it was only named capital in the 16th century and struggled to live up to the reputation of other great European hubs. Nowadays - finally - Madrid rests self assured with world class museums and architecture. Life in Madrid is made outdoor. Spaniards love social interactions, in bars, restaurants, clubs or in the street. The nightlife of Madrid is one of the craziest of Europe so you may find yourself until 6am moving from tapas bars to nightclubs surprised because the time has passed without noticing it. You'll find every imaginable kind of restaurants, dozens of cinemas, theaters and flamenco venues. If you're a sports fanatic, plan ahead to see one of the Best Football team of the 20th Century, Real Madrid CF, in action at the Bernabéu stadium.

  • Reading Grade 3 and Grade 4 Classrooms in a California
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 234 614 FL 013 932 AUTHOR Moll, Luis C.; Diaz, Stephen TITLE Bilingual Communication Skills in Classroom Contexts. Final Report. INSTITUTION California Univ., San Diego. Laboratory of Comparative Human Cognition. SPONS AGENCY National Inst. of Education (ED), Washington, PUB DATE [83] GRANT NIE-G-80-0155 NOTE 60p. PUB TYPE Reports - Research/Technical (143) EDRS PRICE MFOI/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Bilingual Education Programs; Bilingualism; Elementary Education; *English (Second Language); Grade 3; Grade 4; Language Skills; Reading Comprehension; *Reading Instruction; Second Language Learning; Spanish Speaking; *Teaching Methods ABSTRACT Grade_3 and grade 4 classrooms in a California bilingual Spanish/English environment were studied. In the first study, reading lessons were observed and analyzed in a bilingual classroom. Using the analysis of this experience, in the second study a series of theory-driven experimental interventions were initiated. It was found that the achievement of Spanish language dominant students in English language lessons is underestimated. However, it is possible to reorganize these same lessons to advance the students' academic performance. Some of the student selection and placement procedures used in bilingual education programs make it difficult for teachers and students to take full advantage of their respective skills and resources. Similarly, it is possible to reformulate these procedures in a way that goes beyond reliance on English language proficiency assessments. Teaching situations should be based on the children's oral skills in English and their reading skillt in Spanish. For monolingual Spanish students, reading lessons should be initiated in Spanish only when instruction in English as a second language is begun.
