Joan Baez, Cantante Estadounidense De Música Folk, Conocida Como

Joan Baez por wikipedia Joan Chandos Baez (nacida en Staten Island, Nueva York, 9 de enero de 1941), Joan Baez, cantante estadounidense de música folk, conocida como "La reina de la canción protesta". Caracterizada por una voz potente, es la máxima figura de la canción protesta surgida en los años sesenta, al calor de la Guerra de Vietnam. Su repertorio abarca también lo puramente tradicional, el country y el pop-rock. Hija de una profesora de literatura e hija del conocido físico mexicano- estadounidense Albert Baez, co-inventor del microscopio de rayos X y autor de importantes libros de física. Su padre no quería trabajar por convicciones personales en el desarrollo de la bomba atómica en el Proyecto Manhattan y más tarde rechazó trabajar en lucrativos puestos en la industria armamentística, hecho que influyó en la joven Joan. Su carrera musical comienza en Boston, donde consiguió una gran repercusión con su actuación en el Newport Folk Festival de 1959, a los 18 años. Entre 1962 y 1964, Baez fue el rostro más popular de la música folk y de protesta, siendo la estrella de festivales y giras y cantando en actos políticos, entre los que se incluyen la Marcha sobre Washington de 1963 por los derechos civiles junto a Martin Luther King. Cantó en prisiones y como los afroamericanos no podían ir a los teatros de los blancos, Joan fue a cantar a sus teatros. Durante este periodo, empezó a estudiar el trabajo de Bob Dylan. Vivió con Bob Dylan entre 1963 y 1965 y juntos se ganaron el título del Rey y la Reina de la Canción protesta. Luchó en contra de la guerra de Vietnam y a favor de los derechos civiles. Por negarse a pagar el 60% de los impuestos que ella consideraba se usaban en Vietnam, fue encarcelada varias veces y vigilada por el FBI durante décadas. También usaba una gran parte de lo que ganaba en apoyar a organizaciones por los derechos civiles y la no-violencia. A finales de los 60 un periódico universitario le hizo una entrevista y le preguntó sobre su sexualidad. Ella respondió: bisexual. Ninguna artista se había atrevido antes a tanto. Al día siguiente el frente de la casa de Joan estaba invadido por cámaras de televisión, estaciones de radio, periodistas de todas partes, queriendo saber si lo que había dicho era verdad. Ella respondió que sí, sabiendo que se arriesgaba a ser condenada por la mayor parte de la sociedad y del mundo. .

Albert Vinicio Baez and the Promotion of Science Education in the Developing World 1912–2007
Prospects (2007) 37:369–381 DOI 10.1007/s11125-008-9041-6 PROFILE OF EDUCATORS Albert Vinicio Baez and the promotion of science education in the developing world 1912–2007 Fernando Reimers Published online: 29 April 2008 Ó UNESCO IBE 2008 Alberto Vinicio Baez was a pioneer in the field of international science education. He was a physicist who played a leading role in UNESCO’s efforts to support science education globally. His research in the physics of light led to the development of an X-ray micro- scope and of imaging optics. He participated in projects to improve science education in high schools in the United States in the 1950s, a period of intense interest on this topic. In 1961 he was invited to join UNESCO to establish the Division of Science Education. In this position he wrote numerous papers, organized and participated in regional and international conferences, and studied and supported the development of projects to advance science and technology education in developing countries, with a special focus in secondary schools. The programme established the importance of science education, developed low-cost science kits, films and a structured, high-quality curriculum to support physics teachers in Latin America, chemistry education in Asia, biology education in Africa and mathematics education in the Arab States. Baez’s chief intellectual contributions to the field of science education centered on the development and dissemination of the ideas that it was necessary to democratize access to high-quality education in developing countries, that science education should focus on developing the capabilities needed to solve practical problems, and on the role of inter- disciplinarity and social responsibility as core foundations of science education.

Williams Grades: 11-12 Implementation Time: 6 weeks Published 2002 Denver Public Schools, Denver, Colorado The Alma Curriculum and Teacher Training Project Loyola A. Martinez, Project Director Denver Public Schools, Denver, Colorado ABOUT THE ALMA PROJECT The Alma Curriculum and Teacher Training Project The Alma Curriculum and Teacher Training Project was made possible with funding from a Goals 2000 Partnerships for Educating Colorado Students grant awarded to the Denver Public Schools in July 1996. The Project is currently being funded by the Denver Public Schools. The intent of the Project is to have teachers in the Denver Public Schools develop instructional units on the history, contributions, and issues pertinent to Latinos and Hispanics in the southwest United States. Other experts, volunteers, and community organizations have also been directly involved in the development of content in history, literature, science, art, and music, as well as in teacher training. The instructional units have been developed for Early Childhood Education (ECE) through Grade 12. As instructional units are developed and field-tested, feedback from teachers is extremely valuable for making any necessary modifications in the topic development of future units of study. Feedback obtained in the spring of 1999, from 48 teachers at 14 sites, was compiled, documented and provided vital information for the field testing report presented to the Board of Education.

Joan Baez Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around
AIN’T GONNA LET NOBODY TURN ME AROUND: JOAN BAEZ RAISES HER VOICE Liz Thomson The Sixties: Take Thirteen Open University, 8 December 2000 Revised December 2003 1 Ain’t Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around: Joan Baez raises her voice Shortly after Saigon fell on 30 August 1975 and the last American helicopter had lifted unceremoniously off the roof of the US Embassy, 100,000 people filled the Sheep Meadow in New York’s Central Park for a ‘War is Over’ rally. Pete Seeger, Odetta and Joan Baez were among the performers. The event was organised by Phil Ochs, writer of ‘There but for fortune,’ perhaps the most compassionate protest song ever written. It was intended as a celebration of the end of America’s controversial involvement in South-East Asia. Vietnam had galvanised American youth, had been both fuel for the protest movement and the glue that held it together. When the war ‘ended’, most of those who’d sung and spoken so eloquently against its injustices moved on. One who didn’t was Joan Baez. The singer had served two jail terms for ‘aiding and abetting’ draft resisters and had spent 12 days in Hanoi during Nixon’s bombardment of the city in December 1972. Baez had accepted an invitation from the Committee for Solidarity with the American People and joined a small party that included an Episcopalian minister, a Maoist anti-war veteran and Columbia law professor, Telford Taylor, an ex-brigadier general and Nuremburg prosecutor. The Committee’s aim was to maintain friendly relations with the Vietnamese people even as the United States continued to burn their villages.

Robert Maybury's Contributions to IOCD
International Organization for Chemical Sciences in Development Robert Maybury’s contributions to IOCD Robert Maybury 29 January 1923 – 12 April 2021 Background Robert Harris Maybury (born in Lehighton, Pennsylvania, USA) trained as a chemist, receiving a PhD from Boston University in 1952 in physical chemistry, with Prof. Lowell Coulter. He then held a postdoctoral position in protein chemistry at Harvard University, 1951-53. From 1954 to 1963, he taught analytical and physical chemistry and carried out research in protein physical chemistry at the University of Redlands, California and also worked for a summer period in 1955 in the laboratory of the Nobel laureate Linus Pauling. While at Redlands, Maybury developed interests in encouraging students in research and in communicating chemistry, science and education. In this period, he also began to take note of the importance of science in foreign affairs and the problems faced by scientists in low- and middle-income countries.1 He undertook science missions to Pakistan in 1962 and to Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador and Costa Rica in 1963. When a former colleague and friend at Redlands, Albert Baez,2 moved to UNESCO in Paris and set up a science teaching division there, Maybury accepted the invitation to join him as the team’s chemist in 1963. In 1972-73, he took leave to work for the Ford Foundation on a 1-year study of the Foundation’s projects for improving science education in developing countries, with a particular focus on Argentina, Brazil, Lebanon, the Philippines and Turkey. This led to the publication of a book, Technical Assistance and Innovation in Science Education.3 Following this, he was appointed Deputy Director of the UNESCO Regional Office for Science and Technology for Africa (ROSTA), in Nairobi, Kenya, where he served from 1973 to 1980.
