Like a good musician or athlete, a developing college hits certain plateaus on its way to maturity. I think I perceive that Kirkwood has traversed another of these plateaus and is at a unique takeoffpoint in its history. This period will probably not be marked by booming enroll­ ments. In fact, we look for our size to remain relatively stable. There will be marked physical improvements on our campus, and continued transformation of teaching methods and public service. At Kirkwood we have been blessed with fine enrollments, but a shortage ofclassrooms, faculty offices and facilities for the fine arts and physical education. I am pleased to report that great strides are being made to alleviate these shortages. The new Cedar Haff will provide classrooms, faculty offices and facilities for music and communications, along with an auditorium. Johnson Haff will give Kirkwood its first on­ campus facilities for physical education and community rec­ reation. Along with these physical improvements, Kirkwood will open new doors to persons ofall ages seeking education and se/f­ Dr. Bill F. Stewart improvement. Class scheduling, special services and new means ofdelivering knowledge are all evolving as this catalog is being assembled. This catalog reflects important changes in the Arts and Sci­ ences curriculum. Students transferring into Arts and Sci­ ences will benefit from new requirements. More of their voca­ tional credits will be accepted toward the Associate in Sci­ ence degree, giving them a better chance to complete a de­ gree program in the normal two years time. Changes have also been made in core requirements for the Assoc/at-, in Arts degree. The changes are designed to give further assurance to Ki;kwood students that their AA degree will be accepted by any of the three state regent universities in Iowa. The changes will make Kirkwood an even better institution. They are the result of work by a dedicated board of fay direc­ iarB, a iop-nolch i"earn or adaiini-5f.(&.iOtS ano' on& of tli& fjnest teaching faculties and staff to be found in a community col- lege any"v'lhcrc. These people are the heart of our coffege, and they form the best reason .for you to consider continuing vour education with us. Dr. Bill F.

Work on the study be­ gan almost immediately and was completed by July, 1965. Soon after, the Iowa General Assembly passed enabling legislation which made possible the establishment of a system of community colleges and area vocational­ technical schools throughout the state. Educators and laymen in Area Ten recognized the need for a compre­ hensive community college which would provide col­ lege transfer and adult education curricula as well as vocational-technical curricula. Therefore, the nine~man board of directors elected by the citizens of the area asked for and received permission from the State Board of Public Instruction to establish Kirkwood Community College. The college was formally established on July 1, 1966. The college immediately assumed responsibility for federally funded vocational-technical programs, which had been provided by the Cedar Rapids Community School District since 1964. The Arts and Sciences, Stu­ dent Services and Community Education Divisions were established in 1967.

  • ANTA Theater and the Proposed Designation of the Related Landmark Site (Item No
    Landmarks Preservation Commission August 6, 1985; Designation List 182 l.P-1309 ANTA THFATER (originally Guild Theater, noN Virginia Theater), 243-259 West 52nd Street, Manhattan. Built 1924-25; architects, Crane & Franzheim. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1024, Lot 7. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the ANTA Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty-three witnesses spoke in favor of designation. Two witnesses spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The ANTA Theater survives today as one of the historic theaters that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Built in the 1924-25, the ANTA was constructed for the Theater Guild as a subscription playhouse, named the Guild Theater. The fourrling Guild members, including actors, playwrights, designers, attorneys and bankers, formed the Theater Guild to present high quality plays which they believed would be artistically superior to the current offerings of the commercial Broadway houses. More than just an auditorium, however, the Guild Theater was designed to be a theater resource center, with classrooms, studios, and a library. The theater also included the rrost up-to-date staging technology.

Visual Art Elements and Analysis Questions 10. Television/Film/Video Analysis Questions 11. Data Visualization Analysis Questions Overview Supporting multimodal literacy is an important aspect of education today as it encourages students to understand the ways media shapes their world. Most, if not all texts today, can be considered “multimodal texts,” as they combine modes such as visuals, audio, and alphabetic or linguistic text. While it can be useful to create a distinction between multimodal texts and texts that are primarily linguistic in order to clarify assignment goals, all texts can truly be considered multimodal. Even an academic paper has multimodal elements such as font choice, double- spacing, margins, etc. By teaching students multimodal analysis, you provide them access to a more complex way to read all the texts they encounter. In their media-saturated lives, students engage with a large number of multimodal texts per day that contain a variety of modes that work together to create subtle methods of persuasion and often implicitly reinforce cultural stereotypes. Because students are in the habit of passively viewing these texts, it’s important to model strategies that will help them think critically about the messages directed at them through media. However, while students have some experience analyzing traditional alphabetic texts, they often have difficulty transferring what they know about analyzing these texts to analyzing multimodal texts.

  • From Preparation to Practice: Designing a Continuum to Strengthen and Sustain Teaching
    From Preparation to Practice: Designing a Continuum to Strengthen and Sustain Teaching SHARON FEIMAN-NEMSER Michigan State University This paper was written to stimulate discussions and debate about what a professional learning continuum from initial preparation through the early years of teaching could be like. Drawing on a broad base of literature, the author proposes a framework for thinking about a curriculum for teacher learning over time. The paper also considers the fit (or misfit) between conventional approaches to teacher preparation, induction and professional development and the challenges of learning to teach in reform-minded ways and offers examples of promising programs and practices at each of these stages. The paper is organized around three questions: (a) What are the central tasks of teacher preparation, new teacher induction, and early professional development? (b) How well do conventional arrangements address these central tasks? (c) What are some promising programs and practices at each stage in the learning to teach continuum that promote standards-based teaching and enable teachers to become active participants in school reform? INTRODUCTION After decades of school reform, a consensus is building that the quality of our nation’s schools depends on the quality of our nation’s teachers. Policy makers and educators are coming to see that what students learn is directly related to what and how teachers teach; and what and how teachers teach depends on the knowledge, skills, and commitments they bring to their teaching and the opportunities they have to continue learning in and from their practice. The National Commission on Teaching and America’s Future ~1996! puts it this way: “What teachers know and can do makes the crucial difference in what teachers can accomplish.

  • Introduction to Teaching and Learning Mathematics
    PART I Introduction to Teaching and Learning Mathematics Chapter 1 Introduction to the Field of Mathematics Education Chapter 2 Key Psychological Ideas and Research Findings in Mathematics Education Chapter 3 Planning Mathematics Lessons Chapter 4 Mathematics Curriculum Models and Techniques Chapter 5 Implementing and Assessing Mathematics Lessons and Curricula Chapter 6 Becoming a Professional Mathematics Teacher Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION TO THE FIELD OF MATHEMATICS EDUCATION he past few decades have seen incredible growth in the study of teaching and learning mathematics. K–12 teachers, university professors, and other T educators have produced standards documents, research reports, and cur- riculum frameworks with the potential to help improve students’ learning. All of this activity makes it an exciting time to enter the profession of mathematics teaching. However, it can also be overwhelming to try to digest and reflect on everything the field has to offer. In fact, one is never really done learning about teaching mathemat- ics. The best teachers are always learning ways to improve their practices by talking with colleagues, reading research, reading teachers’ journals, carefully assessing the impact of their instructional practices on their students’ thinking, and adjusting their practices to maximize students’ learning. The goal of this chapter is to provide a sense of the major issues and trends that have shaped the field of mathematics education in the recent past. By way of intro- duction, we will examine the standards documents published by the National Coun- cil of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), an organization with more than 90,000 members dedicated to improving mathematics education. We will then examine trends in mathematics teaching and learning around the world and the central mes- sages of the reform movement in mathematics education.
