    ARTICLES OF INTEREST August 3, 2018 QUOTE(S) OF THE WEEK “Every great inspiration is but an experiment - though every experiment we know, is not a great inspiration.” – Charles Ives “When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it.” – Henry Ford “I personally think there's going to be a greater demand in 10 years for liberal arts majors than there were for programming majors and maybe even engineering, because when the data is all being spit out for you, options are being spit out for you, you need a different perspective in order to have a different view of the data.” – Mark Cuban “Imagination is not only the uniquely human capacity to envision that which is not, and therefore the fount of all invention and innovation. In its arguably most transformative and revelatory capacity, it is the power to that enables us to empathize with humans whose experiences we have never shared.” – J. K. Rowling “We especially need imagination in science. It is not all mathematics, nor all logic, but it is somewhat beauty and poetry.” – Maria Mitchell “Knowledge once gained casts a light beyond its own immediate boundaries.” – John Tyndall “As to Bell's talking telegraph, it only creates interest in scientific circles... its commercial values will be limited.” – Elisha Gray “One of the problems with posing a 'bold new plan' is that you can't just extrapolate from previous plans.” – Nathan Myhrvold VIDEO(S) OF THE WEEK Our Favorite Fictional Female Scientists Science Goes to the Movies Computer

Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education, 17(2), 229-249. 3D Modeling and Printing in History/Social Studies Classrooms: Initial Lessons and Insights Robert Maloy University of Massachusetts Amherst Torrey Trust University of Massachusetts Amherst Suzan Kommers University of Massachusetts Amherst Allison Malinowski Williston Northampton School Irene LaRoche Amherst Regional Middle School This exploratory study examined the use of 3D technology by teachers and students in four middle school history/social studies classrooms. As part of a university- developed 3D Printing 4 Teaching & Learning project, teachers integrated 3D modeling and printing into curriculum topics in world geography, U.S. history, and government/civics. Multiple sets of data were collected documenting classroom implementation of 3D technology. Seven key insights emerged: Teachers and students initially found it challenging to imagine ways to use 3D printed physical objects to represent social science concepts; students found 3D printing projects were a positive, self-fulfilling way to show their ideas about history topics; teachers and students found the 3D modeling program difficult to use; 3D modeling and printing altered the teacher-as-expert/student-as-novice relationship; 3D modeling and printing changed how teaching and learning happened in history/social studies classrooms; partnering with content and technical experts was an important element of success; and some teachers shifted their thinking about the value of using 3D printing in history/social studies classes. These insights can help facilitate the integration of 3D technologies in history/social studies classrooms.

BIVONA** INTRODUCTION The Delaware Supreme Court delivered its final opinion in the highly publicized case, Brehm v. Eisner (the Disney case), which involved the firing without cause of Disney's president, Michael Ovitz., This not- for-cause termination resulted in a $130 million severance package after only fourteen months of service.2 Ovitz's termination was effected on Disney's behalf by its chief executive officer (CEO) Michael Eisner.3 The Delaware Supreme Court affirmed the chancery court's decision, ruling that the business judgment rule protected the decision to terminate Ovitz, and the accompanying severance payment.4 Consequently, the defendant directors and officers did not violate their fiduciary duties or commit waste.5 Much scholarly writing has been * Rupert and Lillian Radford Professor and Senior Associate Dean for Research, Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law.
