What a compliment to catechetical and Catholic school educators if students had this or something similar to say about their learning experiences! This book is an outgrowth of the New Frontiers for Catholic Schools project, a collabo- rative effort of the National Catholic Educational Association and The University of Dayton. The project was initiated by Regina Haney, Angela Ann Zukowski, MHSH, and Fred Brigham in the early 1990s. It continues until today. The goal is to support our Catholic educators and schools to make technology a vital part of the future of Catholic education. New Frontiers for Catholic Schools provides leadership, direction, and support for Catholic school teams as they search out ways to integrate technology across the curriculum, to push for educationalexcellence and to prepare Catholic school students for tomorrow. In the past six years, ten to twelve Catholic school teams of three have gathered annually during the summer at the University of Dayton to explore possibilities, draft a vision, and establish a network of peers who, like themselves, dream of developing a plan that will success- fully integrate technology into the teaching and learning of their schools. The strength of the program is the support given to one another by codirectors, presenters, and teams. Teams are given the space and time to mull over ideas and to dialogue with one another and the rest of the group. Their respective experiences with technology and teaching and learning become their primary sources of information, understanding, and planning. Each participant has something to contribute to the crafting of each school's technology plan. Long after the Dayton experience, the communication continues. Teams participate in telephone conference calls and regular communication via the Internet to keep informed on new develop- ments and to support one another in their new learning initiatives. This ongoing conversation among New Frontier alumni encourages and celebrates their daily new-pioneeringexperiences opening new paths of learning and teaching today. This book highlights the new perspectives, insights, and developments of our New Frontiers schools along with some of our facilitators who have been mentoring our teams into the new frontiers of Catholic education. The New Frontiers for Catholic Schools project recognizes that we are living in a new era. The Vatican documents, Redemptoris Missio and Aetatis Novae, emphasize that the new era is a new culture with a new psychology, new languages, and new techniques(cyberspace, converg- ing communication technologies, etc.). Catholic education has a moral, religious, social, and educational responsibility to engage in the formation of this new culture. With or without Catholic educators this new culture is emerging. It is being woven into the fabric of our everyday lives. What is the impact of this new culture on Catholic education? Firstly, new creeds (beliefs, values), codes (behavior), and cults (rituals) are being manifested; secondly, a new self-aware- ness/awakening is unfolding as learners find themselves immersed in a sea of new and rapidly V New frontiers: Navigational Strategies for Integrating Technology Into the School OOOOO revealing information; thirdly, new locations and styles of learning communitiesare emerging inviting learners to a deeper understanding of global and interdisciplinary collaborationfor learning; finally, new leadership and administrative skillsare challenging administrators to rethink both the physical and personal

  • Some Minn Radio History
    TWIN CITIES RADIO TIMELINE St. Louis Park is fortunate to be the home of the Pavek Museum of Broadcasting, located at 3515 Raleigh Avenue. Much of the following information was provided by the Museum. Another good source of information on the history of local radio stations can be found in Minnesota Airwaves, 1912 through 1939 and Radio Trivia by Charles W. Ingersoll. Also see the Hennepin County Library's Radio and Television site. 1912 The Radio Act established that radio was to be monitored by the Secretary of Commerce, who was Herbert Hoover at the time. The Act authorized the Secretary to issue licenses to every applicant, and did not provide him with any regulatory powers. The North American Regional Broadcasting Agreement established the protocol for call letters. Stations east of the Mississippi started with K, and those west started with W. Canadian stations started with C, and Mexican stations started with X. At first call letters had only three letters, but they were quickly exhausted in the 20’s and a fourth was added. 1920 The very first active commercial radio station in the nation is thought to be KDKA in Pittsburgh, which got its license in October 1920. The first broadcast was the Harding- Cox Election returns on November 2. The first transmitter for public broadcasts was set up at the University of Minnesota, and its first broadcast was a football game in 1921. Here’s a good description of a crystal set from Ish Kabibble:: There was a new thing you could build that could pick up music right out of the air.
