Supporting Discoveries About Salk Jonas Salk changed the world. Inspired to rid civilization of polio, he used basic science to solve its mysteries and in the process helped alter the course of the 20th century along with the future of science, medicine and human health. Untold millions have benefited from his work. The Salk Institute was created to attract the best scientific minds in the world. We’ve built on his vision and have become the leading center for independent research, delving into the most serious biological questions of our time. Experts come from around the globe to work in open collaboration—conducting innovative and daring research, mapping discoveries and developing the blueprints so that cures can happen, anywhere in the world. Twelve Nobel laureates have called the Salk Institute home. 1 It’s this “critical mass of intellect,” which embraces the most modern technologies and prizes discovery over credit, that distinguishes Salk. And it results in some of the world’s most breathtaking findings, which advance our understanding of cancer, aging and the brain. These are the first steps that will lead to tomorrow’s cures for cancer, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, heart disease, metabolic diseases, ALS, schizophrenia, childhood development disorders and spinal cord injuries.

  • The Need for Global Literature

    The Need for Global Literature

    1 The Need for Global Literature ardening and cooking: These topics often bring pleasure, as Gmost of us love food, and virtually every culture has its delec - table specialties. Many people enjoy and take pride in raising their own produce; for some, it is a necessity. The late 1990s saw the pub - lication of four children’s books that used these motifs to demon - strate and celebrate the diversity of our society. In Erika Tamar’s (1996) Garden of Happiness , the Lower East Side of New York City becomes the setting of a community garden for Puerto Rican, African American, Indian, Polish, Kansan, and Mexican neighbors. In Seedfolks, by Paul Fleischman (1997), a Cleveland, Ohio, neigh - borhood garden brings together 13 strangers from Vietnamese, Rumanian, white Kentuckian, Guatemalan, African American, Jewish, Haitian, Korean, British, Mexican, and Indian backgrounds. Mama Provi and the Pot of Rice, by Sylvia Rosa-Casanova (1997), por - trays how a Puerto Rican grandmother’s pot of arroz con pollo trans - forms into a multicultural feast with the help of white, Italian, black, and Chinese neighbors in one city apartment building. Another urban dwelling forms the setting in Judy Cox’s (1998) Now We Can Have a Wedding! when Jewish, Japanese, Chinese, Italian, and Russian neighbors contribute to a multicultural banquet for a Greek-Mexican wedding. 4 The Need for Global Literature 5 Cities in the United States often are the places where small com - munities encompass such diverse cultures, so perhaps it is unsurpris - ing that these four books use similar premises.

  • Ideological Transactions: a Case Study of Elementary School

    Ideological Transactions: a Case Study of Elementary School

    IDEOLOGICAL TRANSACTIONS: A CASE STUDY OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHERS’ DIALOGS WITH INTERNATIONAL CHILDREN’S PICTUREBOOKS by OKSANA LUSHCHEVSKA (Under the Direction of Jennifer M. Graff) ABSTRACT Literacy scholars assert that an introduction to diversity and global perspective using literature is most effective at the elementary level (Lehman, Freeman, & Scharer, 2010; Schultz; 2010; Stan, 1999) and well-trained teachers can teach multicultural literature and international literature to all students with the same success and expectations despite their own different background/race/gender (Schultz, 2010, p. 18). However, a number of factors influence K-12 educators’ selection of children’s books for classroom use (Serafini, 2013). This study focuses primarily on what happens when in-service elementary school teachers transact with selected international children’s picturebooks. By focusing on how and why teachers vacillate between aesthetic reception and resistance (Rosenblatt, 1978; Soter, 1997) when reading international children’s literature, we can better understand ways by which we can match readers (teachers and students) with international children’s literature. Additionally, we can better understand the ideological underpinnings of elementary school teachers’ transactions with the selected international children’s picturebooks. INDEX WORDS: international children’s literature, elementary school teachers, transactional theory, heteroglossia IDEOLOGICAL TRANSACTIONS: A CASE STUDY OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHERS’ DIALOOGS WITH INTERNATIONAL
