This present volume contains four sections corresponding to the four categories in which programs were originally submitted to NCIA for its Annual Exemplary Initiatives Awards. These awards were presented at the annual AACC convention held in April at Washington, DC. Section I includes the descriptions of the two programs which shared the award for Exemplary Initiatives in Workforce Development. Also included are the two programs that were awarded honorable mentions. Edited versions of all other entries in this category are included. Section II includes the three programs which shared the award for Exemplary Initiatives In Enhancing Student Learning. Also included are the three programs that were awarded honorable mentions. Edited versions of all other entries in this category are included. Section III includes the description of the program that won the award for Exemplary Initiatives in Developmental Education. Two honorable mentions are also contained as well as edited versions of all other entries. Section IX includes the description of the winning program in the category Exemplary Initiatives in External Partnerships and Collaboration and the three programs that were awarded honorable mentions. Edited versions of all other entries are also included. In all, 204 programs are described herein. Each program cites the institutional contact person, the college address and phone number and the name of the college's Chief Executive Officer. An "Index of Participating Colleges" is contained at the end of the book. Programs were nominated as exemplary by the participating colleges. Each college determined the category or categories in which to compete. Program narratives were restricted to a maximum 1000 words. For this volume some editing for style and length has been done. Programs submitted were required to address three criteria in their narrative: 1. Must identify how the program is innovative and creative. 2. Could be adopted/adapted by other colleges. 3. Can provide indications of success on campus. In certain instances, colleges chose to address each of the criteria in turn within their narratives. In other instances colleges generally covered the criteria, but with no direct reference to them. 5 Beyond presenting its awards, the National Council of Instructional Administrators makes no judgment on the merit of individual programs, but is pleased to include programs as submitted. Program evaluators were selected by the NCIA Executive Board. The Council is pleased to provide, as part of its membership services, copies of this publication to its members. On a periodic basis the Council publishes other materials of interest to academic administrators. A quarterly Newsletter is also distributed to all NCIA members. This book and earlier issues (as well as newsletters) are available through ERIC. You may also find this book and current newsletters on our website: www.nciaonline.org. Additional hard copies of this publication are available for $15 each. Ordersmay be sent to NCIA, P.O. Box 210040, Nashville, TN 37221-0040. Checks should be made payable to NCIA.

    BetterSolutions.com Tutorials and Add ---ins for Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint February 2008 --- Letter from the Editor Welcome to the seventh edition of the BetterSolutions.com newsletter. We have got tonnes of Microsoft Office related information to share with you this year and lots of new and exciting developments. In addition to sharing our thoughts and tutorials this newsletter will try and explain some of the mysteries behind the Microsoft Office applications, especially Office 2003. The most significant development for us this year will be the learning and implementation of SharePoint. If you are looking to improve team collaboration or just increase productivity on a general level I would suggest having a look at Windows SharePoint Services (WSS). At the moment we are doing some preliminary testing but we are hoping to start integrating parts of WSS into the website towards the end of the year. Office Open XML File Formats Often referred to as Office Open XML or just Open XML this is the XML based file format that is used by default in Microsoft Office 2007. Office Open XML provides a standardised and open file format that combines ZIP data compression with XML. This allows you to quickly access the individual components of an Office 2007 file by changing the file extension to “.zip”. Office Open XML file formats have been designed to work on multiple platforms making it very easy to access and update the information contained in an Office document. Open XML is divided into several supporting languages: there is SpreadsheetML for spreadsheets; WordprocessingML for documents; PresentationML for presentations and DrawingML for graphics, charts, tables and diagrams.

  • Baseball Game Fun Patch Program
    Baseball Game Fun! Did you know that the game of baseball can be traced back to the American Revolution (1775-1783)? According to History.com, a game that resembled baseball is said to have been developed from two English games, both which involved the use of a bat and a ball: 1. Rounders (a children’s game brought to New England by the colonists); and 2. another popular game—Cricket. During the American Revolution, there were different versions of these games played in schoolyards and college campuses all over the country. In 1845, more than 170 years ago, the New York Knickerbocker Baseball Club was founded. One of its members, Alexander Joy Cartwright, created a set of rules that were the foundation for the baseball played today! He decided upon a diamond-shaped infield, foul lines, and the three-strike rule. In addition, Cartwright got rid of the dangerous practice of tagging runners by throwing baseballs at them (Ouch!). By 1846, the Knickerbockers played their first official game, and baseball became an official sport, unique to America. And then, in 1943, the All-American Girls Baseball League (AAGBL) was created, and in nine years, more than 600 women played in the league. Within the first five years, the number of spectators in attendance at games was over 900,000! One of the most noteworthy teams in the AAGBL was the Rockford Peaches of Illinois. They were one of two teams to play in every AAGBL season, and they won the league championship in 1945, 1948, 1949 and 1950. Throughout this time, Dorothy Kamenshek, Lois Florreich, Dorothy Harrell, Carolyn Morris, Alice Pollitt, Ruth Richard, Rose Gacioch, Eleanor Callow, and Joan Berger were all named to All-Star teams.

RVN‐2 refers to the broadcast license call sign of the station, “2” being the channel number of the frequency. However, RVN‐2 was also the name and reference attributed to the station and the channel for many decades amongst viewers, and up to today, those who experienced RVN‐2 sometimes still refer to the channel as that. RVN‐2 was more than just a television service. Its identity on air and its Kooringal Studio facility became local institutions equivalent to that of a landmark. The station was a major local industry, at one time employing 150 local people in various roles from production to technical to clerical, as well as providing an introduction and training ground for young television employees.
