Steve Jobs Steve Jobs was born on February 24th, 1955, to two University of Wisconsin graduates (Joanne Schieble and Abdulfattah Jandali, a Syrian immigrant). The couple decided not to keep the baby, and for the first few years of his life, Steve Jobs lived with an adoptive family. There, his adoptive father taught him about electronics and computer chips in their garage. In school, we was often so bored that the teacher had to bribe him to get work done. Regardless of that, the school supervisors believed Steve should start high school when he went into fourth grade, an idea which his parents refused. In 1976, when Jobs was just 21, he and Steve Wozniak formed Apple Computer, a company that would shape the world we live in today.

But the idea of a national country countdown show was anything but a no-brainer when he started with American Country Countdown in 1974.

Those challenges, his ap- proach to interviewing and the big surprise that left him, literally, speechless are discussed in this wide-ranging conversation.

A Dissertation Presented by THOMAS ZSCHOCKE Approved as to style and content by: Robert J. Miltz, Chair George E. Forman, Member Miguel Romero, Member D. Nico Spinelli, Member Bailey W.

MAY 2002 THOMAS ZSCHOCKE, DIPLOM-SOZIALPÄDAGOGE, UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES COLOGNE, GERMANY M.A., UNIVERSITY OF COLOGNE, GERMANY Ed.D. UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS AMHERST Directed by: Professor Robert F. Miltz The great variety of authoring activities involved in the development of Web- based learning environments requires a more comprehensive integration of principles and strategies not only from instructional design, but also from other disciplines such as human-computer interaction and software engineering. The present dissertation addresses this issue by proposing an object-oriented instructional design (OOID) model based on Tennyson's fourth generation instructional systems development (ISD4) model. It incorporates object-oriented analysis and design methods from human-computer interaction (HCI) and software engineering into a single framework for Internet use in education. Introducing object orientation into the instructional design of distributed hypermedia learning environments allows for an enhanced utilization of so-called learning objects that can be used, re-used or referenced during technology-mediated instruction.

REPLAY THAT TUNE: DEFENDING BAKKE ON STARE DECISIS GROUNDS CHARLES ADSIDE, III ABSTRACT The announcement from the United States Supreme Court to reconsider Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin (Fisher I)1 presents an opportunity to revisit Regents of the University of California v. Bakke, which controls affirmative action jurisprudence. This Article argues that Bakke is immune from reversal under stare decisis principles, because the use of race in admission programs is deeply engrained in our constitutional law. The Court's race ideologues seek, however, to alter Bakke to reflect their vision of racial equality. In Fisher II, the Court should not change its jurisprudence to reflect any doctrinal extreme. Arguing that Bakke was incorrectly decided is not enough to justify reversal. Stare decisis doctrine requires that opponents offer a prudential reason to overturn it.

First, I would like to express my deepest appreciation to my committee chair, Dr. Julie Ann Taylor. Dr. Taylor's vision and critical analysis have helped to shape my research, which have taken my studies to new heights I had not previously considered. Her passion for the social studies and Arab-American and Muslim-American studies help me remember the true purpose of studying and teaching history. I would also like to thank my committee member Dr. Maiyoua Vang. Dr. Vang is a true multiculturalist and her determination and ambition were a constant reminder and motivation as to why multicultural education is vital to student learning. At times, Dr. Vang could read my mind and provide me with the inspiration and direction for my dissertation. It was refreshing to be around those who care as deeply as I do about education. I one day hope to be as inspirational as both of these women. Additionally, I would like to thank Dr.
