It is important that teachers, the conference around the administrators, and parents are collaboratively involved in helping students achieve their following four strands, fullest potential in science. This strand will provide the participant with programs and enabling you to focus on teaching strategies that have demonstrated increased academic achievement, foster interest a specific area of interest and participation in science, and employ exemplary science programs in urban and rural or need.

Closing the Digital Generation Gap Between Teachers and Students Students today are often advanced in the use of digital technology. How can teachers, many of whom are digital immigrants, become responsible digital educators? The understanding and use of technology are critical components of STEM education. The appropriate use of current technology supports the development of “21st Century Skills” such as real-world applications, creative problem solving, collaboration, and effective communication. Rekindling the Fires of Science Teaching and Learning ★ This strand will provide exemplary programs, best practices, and strategies to increase teacher retention and renewal by focusing on such areas as professional learning communities, administrative and science leader support, professional development that focuses on both science content and pedagogy, mentoring programs, and collegial support strategies.

    The Afghanistan Research and Evaluation Unit The A to Z Guide to Afghanistan Assistance 2nd Edition, August 2003 Writer: Shawna Wakefield Editor: Christina Bennett, Kathleen Campbell With special thanks to: Kristen Krayer, Nellika Little, Mir Ahmad Joyenda Cover illustration: Parniyan Design and Printing: The Army Press © 2003 The Afghanistan Research and Evaluation Unit (AREU). All rights reserved. Preface This is the second edition of The A to Z Guide to Afghanistan Assistance. Our first edition was brought out one year ago at a time of great change in Afghanistan. At that time, coordination mechanisms and aid processes were changing so fast that old hands and new arrivals alike were sometimes overwhelmed by the multiplicity of acronyms and references to structures and entities that had been recently created, abolished or re-named. Eighteen months after the fall of the Taliban and the signing of the Bonn Agreement, there are still rapid new developments, a growing complexity to the reconstruction effort and to planning processes and, of course, new acronyms! Our aim therefore remains to provide a guide to the terms, structures, mechanisms and coordinating bodies critical to the Afghanistan relief and reconstruction effort to help ensure a shared vocabulary and common understanding of the forces at play. We’ve also included maps and a contact directory to make navigating the assistance community easier. This 2nd edition also includes a section called “Resources,” containing information on such things as media organisations, security information, and Afghanistan-related web sites. Another new addition is a guide to the Afghan government. As the objective of so many assistance agencies is to support and strengthen government institutions, we felt that understanding how the Afghan government is structured is important to working in the current environment.

Thinking and acting like engineers, they design and build models representing Orion, calculating the speed and acceleration of the models. Teacher Preparation Time: This lesson is developed using a 5E model of learning. This model is based upon 1 hour constructivism, a philosophical framework or theory of learning that helps students connect new knowledge to prior experience. In the ENGAGE section of the lesson, Lesson Duration: students learn about the Orion space capsule through the use of a NASA eClips video Five 55-minute class meetings segment. Teams of students design their own model of Orion to be used as a flight test model in the EXPLORE section. Students record the distance and time the models fall Time Management: and make suggestions to redesign and improve the models. Class time can be reduced to three 55-minute time blocks During the EXPLAIN section, students answer questions about speed, velocity and if some work is completed at acceleration after calculating the flight test model’s speed and acceleration. home. Working in teams, students redesign the flight test models to slow the models by National Standards increasing air resistance in the EXTEND section of this lesson.

Further research subsequently reinforced that impression. Much of the material on which the book is based was collected in the course of my 1979 field trip which took me to India, Pakistan and the United Kingdom as well as Afghanistan and during a follow-up trip to India and Pakistan from December 1980 to January 1981. Unfortunately by then times had changed and on this second occasion the Afghan government refused me a visa. Texts of speeches and statements by Afghan leaders and other Afghan government documents have for the most part been taken from the Kabul Times, since these are in effect the official version. I have however taken the liberty where necessary of adjusting the syntax of the Afghan translator. The problem of transliteration is inescapable, and at the risk of offending the purists I have chosen what appears to be the simplest spelling of Afghan names and have tried to be consistent.

  • Education and Development in Afghanistan Challenges and Prospects
    From: Uwe H. Bittlingmayer, Anne-Marie Grundmeier, Reinhart Kößler, Diana Sahrai, Fereschta Sahrai (eds.) Education and Development in Afghanistan Challenges and Prospects March 2019, 314 p., pb., numerous ill. 39,99 € (DE), 978-3-8376-3637-6 E-Book: PDF: 39,99 € (DE), ISBN 978-3-8394-3637-0 After years of military interventions, the current situation in Afghanistan is highly am- bivalent and partially contradictory – especially regarding the interplay of development, peace, security, education, and economy. Despite numerous initiatives, Afghanistan is still confronted with a poor security and economic condition. At the same time, enroll- ment numbers in schools and universities as well as the rate of academics reached a historical peak. This volume investigates the tension between these ambivalent developments. Sociol- ogists, political and cultural scientists along with development workers, educators, and artists from Germany and Afghanistan discuss the idea that education is primary for rebuilding a stable Afghan state and government. Uwe H. Bittlingmayer (Prof. Dr. phil.) teaches Sociology at the Institute of Sociology, University of Education Freiburg (Germany). Anne-Marie Grundmeier (Prof. Dr. rer. pol.) teaches and researches in the field of cultural sciences at the Institute of Everyday Life Culture, Sports and Health at the University of Education Freiburg. Reinhart Kößler (Prof. Dr. phil.) was director of the Arnold Bergstraesser Institute in Freiburg and is Visiting Professor and Research Associate at the Institute of Reconcilia- tion and Social Justice at the University of the Free State, South Africa.

We view learning as situated and value the importance of authentic activities in classrooms. The main purpose of the project is to help teachers facilitate instruction for 5th through 9th grade children in complex situations that involve learning about evolutionary concepts, nature of science (NOS) and inquiry.
