THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF TELEVISION ARTS & SCIENCES ANNOUNCES 35th ANNUAL DAYTIME ENTERTAINMENT EMMY ® AWARD NOMINATIONS Daytime Emmy Awards To Be Telecast June 20, 2008 On ABC at 8:00 p.m. (ET) Live from Hollywood’s’ Kodak Theatre Regis Philbin to Receive Lifetime Achievement Award New York – April 30, 2008 – The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences today announced the nominees for the 35th Annual Daytime Entertainment Emmy ® Awards. The announcement was made live on ABC’s “The View”, hosted by Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and Sherri Shepherd. The nominations were presented by “All My Children” stars Rebecca Budig (Greenlee Smythe) and Cameron Mathison (Ryan Lavery), Farah Fath (Gigi Morasco) and John-Paul Lavoisier (Rex Balsam) of “One Life to Live,” Marcy Rylan (Lizzie Spaulding) from “Guiding Light” and Van Hansis (Luke Snyder) of “As the World Turns” and Bryan Dattilo (Lucas Horton) and Alison Sweeney (Sami DiMera) from “Days of our Lives.” Nominations were announced in the following categories: Outstanding Drama Series; Outstanding Lead Actor/Actress in a Drama Series; Outstanding Supporting Actor/Actress in a Drama Series; Outstanding Younger Actor/Actress in a Drama Series; Outstanding Talk Show – Informative; Outstanding Talk Show - Entertainment; and Outstanding Talk Show Host. As previously announced, this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award will be presented to Regis Philbin, host of “Live with Regis and Kelly.” Since Philbin first stepped in front of the camera more than 40 years ago, he has ambitiously tackled talk shows, game shows and almost anything else television could offer. Early on, Philbin took “A.M. Los Angeles” from the bottom of the ratings to number one through his 7 year tenure and was nationally known as Joey Bishop’s sidekick on “The Joey Bishop Show.” In 1983, he created “The Morning Show” for WABC in his native Manhattan. -

Superhero School: Harnessing the Power of Science, Literacy, and Media Twin Cities Public Television's Proposed Ready to Learn
Superhero School: Harnessing the Power of Science, Literacy, and Media Twin Cities Public Television’s proposed Ready to Learn project, Superhero School: Harnessing the Power of Science, Literacy, and Media, focuses on building the science and literacy skills of children ages 5 to 8. The project will deliver, in English and Spanish, 40 half-hour animated television shows; a suite of interactive games with embedded assessments and analytics, built on an innovative platform that serves as the project hub; an array of digital media including apps, ebooks, blogging and sketching tools, and a children’s website; and outreach activities and materials that equip educators and parents to support the academic success of children at risk for academic failure. Superhero School addresses Invitational Priorities 1 and 2. The project design integrates the development of all components and is built on a solid foundation of research about best practices for science and literacy education as well as using media most effectively for learning. It features new approaches to developing educational media, with an emphasis on reaching Latino communities and supporting the needs of children with disabilities. Formative and summative research, conducted by an independent evaluator, will inform the development of all project components and assess their effectiveness in improving children’s academic achievement. A. SIGNIFICANCE In recent decades, science learning in U.S. early elementary schools has been marginalized as schools have turned their focus to reading and math. In 2012, a Noyce Foundation report noted: 1) Instructional time for science in the elementary grades (grades 1–4) has dropped to an average of 2.3 hours per week, the lowest since 1988; and 2) Aggregated national and state data indicate that less time for science is correlated with lower scores, accounting for approximately 12 points of the National Assessment of Superhero School © 2015 Twin Cities Public Television (TPT) Page 1 Educational Progress (NAEP) Science Scale at grade 4 (Blank, 2012, p. -
Ready to Learn Programming S295A200002
A. SIGNIFICANCE What do you want to be when you grow up? Most people have either asked or answered this familiar question. Whether the reply is “doctor,” “ballet dancer,” “astronaut,” or a combination of all three, children’s hopes and plans for their future jobs are a frequent topic of conversation, focus for creative play and fodder for daydreams. However, actual preparation for such careers, especially for young learners, is unfortunately infrequent. As Jennifer Curry, Ph.D., a professor at Louisiana State University and a former elementary school counselor writes, The misconception that high school is the time to begin career and college preparation is nothing new but vastly incorrect. Like any area of development, career development is sequential and builds over time. We don’t expect students to arrive to high school and take algebra without prior math courses. Can you imagine how they would react? Yet, there are some schools and districts where exactly that happens with career and college development; some students don’t receive a cohesive career curriculum until they are in their final high school years and are still expected to know how to make thoughtful career and college choices (Curry, 2017). This lack of career preparation is especially problematic given that making choices around educational and career pathways has never been more challenging. With technology, urbanization, resource scarcity and even weather and health-related crises driving change, the United States’ workforce is evolving at a dizzying pace. Indeed, a multitude of today’s common positions, such as app developer, data security specialist or social media manager, were nonexistent when the current workforce was in kindergarten. -
