Bernhardt, R. "Educational Alternatives for Rural Alaska." Aboriginal Child at School 13, no. 3 (July 1985): 34–41. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s031058220001381x.

Abstract:

In the recent years, major economic developments have occurred in rural Alaska that have permanently changed the social, political and institutional landscape. The 150 Eskimo, Indian and Aleut communities have borne the brunt of these changes. Few have had available to them the indigenous human resources, the technical skills and educational preparation necessary to assume full control over these forces. In 1980 the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, in cooperation with several native organisations, successfully approached the Bernard van Leer Foundation with a proposal to assist Alaska Native communities in developing their own capacity to shape their future. This is the story of how the ‘Van Leer Project’ has attempted to respond to those developments.

Abstract:

Despite its current threat to the world's survival, organized political violence continues to be the ultimate political recourse. Chistopher Kruegler and Patricia Parkman argue that this is so because of a widespread yet erroneous belief in its efficacy, and because nonviolent sanctions remain underdeveloped in the face of skepticism about their effectiveness. The authors document the largely unrecognized history of nonviolent action and suggest its potential power to resolve today's conflicts. In conclusion, they call for greater efforts by educators to research and teach alternatives to political violence and present specific directions which these efforts might take.

Abstract:

Recent attention to alternatives for traditional educational leadership program delivery models is part of an evolutionary process that serves to redefine teaching and learning. The conventional linear relationship between content, teaching, and learning is being transformed by these alternative models. The assumptions and components of an experiential learning model are presented to bring focus to this process and to offer one way to redefine teaching and learning in educational leadership preparation programs. This redefinition describes teaching and learning as a transactional process of creating personal knowledge through experiential alternative learning environments. The model has design implications for individual lessons, courses, projects, or an entire program. Two examples of experientially-based course projects are presented.

Abstract:

;Assessment and accountability are words that have become synonymous with standardized testing. This view has narrowed the curriculum and limited the na-ture of learning and schooling experiences for children. This narrow focus has also driven educational practices away from ideas found in current learning theory. The following case study illustrates one school’s effort to ex-pand assessment and accountability activities, to bring assessment practices in line with recommendations in the learning and assessment research literature and to encourage dialogue throughout the school community regarding the school’s program and students’ learning. Using a narrative constructed from data from one of the school’s assessment activities, the author, who was also serving as the school principal at the time of the event, discusses the complexities and potential of making stu-dent learning public and involving the public in assess-ment. Creating a public forum to explore ideas and con-ceptions about schooling and learning among adults and children links school accountability to awareness and understanding of school purposes and pedagogy. This democratic aspect of assessment and accountability may hold power to influence school reform and imagine educational alternatives beyond the reliance and accep-tance of standardized testing as the gold standard.

Abstract:

Defenders of educational frog dissection tend to emphasize the claim that computer-simulated alternatives cannot replicate the same exact experience of slicing open a frog, with all its queasy and visceral impact. Without denying that point, I argue that this is not the only educational standard against which computer-simulated dissection should be evaluated. When real-world frog dissection is analyzed as a concrete technological practice rather than an assumed ideal, the particular educational advantages distinct to real-world dissection and virtual dissection can be enumerated and compared. Building on the work of John Dewey and Don Ihde, I explore the still-expanding advantages of computer-simulated dissection, and in this proper context of comparison it becomes clear that virtual alternatives are increasingly the more educationally beneficial option.

Abstract:

In the 1990s, citizens regard green lawns and golf courses with attitudes ranging from pleasure for their beauty to dismay caused by concerns for environmental consequences. Citizens concerned with environmental consequences describe fertilizers or pesticides that may be harmful to groundwater or other organisms while others worry about the harm caused by more bee stings or economic and aesthetic losses caused by unsightly weeds. Both sides of an issue can be supported by facts. The listener may have difficulty forming an opinion since many issues do not have a clearly right or wrong approach. How should educators deal with this sort of dilemma? Are learning methods available to explore people's values, data, assumptions, and practices?

Abstract:

Systemic educational policy recommends creating more ambitious instruction in schools through a centralized strategy of mandatory curriculum frameworks, high-stakes student assessments, and coordinated teacher training. This article suggests serious problems with such a strategy and recommends a decentralized alternative involving local choice of curricula, technical assistance, and professional development. Arguments for, problems with, and alternatives to the centralized strategy are examined in eight dimensions of educational policy: curriculum development, curriculum stratification, educational indicators, high-stakes examinations for students, school improvement, educational finance, educational governance, and teacher training. The article concludes with recommendations for policy and research.

Abstract:

Major policy debates have arisen around the subject of educational vouchers as an alternative for financing and organizing elementary and secondary education. To a large degree, comparisons between vouchers and the traditional system of educational finance and school operations have been limited to one or two dimensions of education such as the relative impact of a particular system on achievement test scores. This article describes a comprehensive, evaluative framework that draws upon a larger range of goals that have been posed for education in a democratic and free society. These criteria include: (a) freedom of choice, (b) productive efficiency, (c) equity, and (d) social cohesion. The framework demonstrates the importance of and tradeoffs among these four criteria in evaluating specific educational voucher plans and enables comparisons with other alternatives such as charter schools as well as the more traditional public school arrangements.

Abstract:

Pesticides have been the primary method of pest control for years, and growers depend on them to control insect and disease-causing pests effectively and economically. However, opportunities for reducing the potential pollution arising from the use of pesticides and fertilizers in environmental horticulture are excellent. Greenhouse, nursery, and sod producers are using many of the scouting and cultural practices recommended for reducing the outbreak potential and severity of disease and insect problems. Growers are receptive to alternatives to conventional pesticides, and many already use biorational insecticides. Future research should focus on increasing the effectiveness and availability of these alternatives. Optimizing growing conditions, and thereby plant health, reduces the susceptibility of plants to many disease and insect pest problems. Impediments to reducing the use of conventional pesticides and fertilizers in the environmental horticulture industry include 1) lack of easily implemented, reliable, and cost-effective alternative pest control methods; 2) inadequate funding for research to develop alternatives; 3) lack of sufficient educational or resource information for users on the availability of alternatives; 4) insufficient funding for educating users on implementing alternatives; 5) lack of economic or regulatory incentive for growers to implement alternatives; and 6) limited consumer acceptance of aesthetic damage to plants. Research and broadly defined educational efforts will help alleviate these impediments to reducing potential pollution by the environmental horticulture industry.

Abstract:

This paper has two aims. First, it attempts to counter the arguments commonly used for the practice of young children colouring-in. The arguments used to counter colouring-in include the idea that it is a metaphor for schooling rather than education, a leveller of abilities, frequently involves a sentimental view of childhood, and, most seriously, undermines children's confidence in their own abilities. Justifications for colouring-in are examined and found to be seriously deficient. Secondly, the paper describes three alternatives that involve teaching/learning strategies to facilitate children to produce their own images. The strategies are called verbal response, conversational and perceptual. Each is concerned to extend children's abilities, stretch their imagination, provide choice, and allow for playfulness and spontaneity.

Abstract:

The possibilities opened with the application of the new technologies to educational communication are so important for school and for society in general that the objective of the present paper is to analyse which role should mass media in the educational context. Furthermore, the author offers educational alternatives to help us to have a society that asks for social integration and citizen identity, far from a society inspired only by economic postulates. No cabe duda que las posibilidades que se abren con la aplicación de las nuevas tecnologías en la comunicación educativa son enormemente enriquecedoras, tanto para la sociedad en general como para la propia comunidad escolar en particular. Ahora bien, la carencia de un modelo consensuado de globalización, basado en postulados más humanos, sociales y educativos, en vez de los puramente económicos, está planteando problemas sociales a escala mundial. El presente artículo analiza desde el ámbito pedagógico cuál debe ser el compromiso educativo de los medios de comunicación en el actual contexto de globalización, para que participen activamente en el desarrollo integral del individuo.

Meeting the needs of a variety of learners in college and university settings is of vital importance. By designing courses infused with Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles, guidelines and checkpoints; professors and instructors create environments targeted toward meeting the educational needs of a wider variety of students. UDL works most effectively at the design stage. This paper aims to support learning environment design by presenting ten specific strategies for infusing UDL within post-secondary courses at the university level. These strategies will include: identifying barriers to learning, alternatives for participating during class time, effective alternative assessments based on construct relevance and UDL meta cognitive goals and transparency.

In an attempt to conserve much needed personal protective equipment (PPE) as well as to free up available hospital beds to accommodate the significant influx of COVID-19 patients, many elective surgical cases were essentially put on hold. Furthermore, to taper the spread of this highly contagious virus and to protect the medical staff, surgical clinics were limited to urgent care that could not be managed through virtual platforms. Surgical trainees, such as residents and fellows, who solemnly rely on clinical and surgical exposure to hone their operative and clinical skills, were evidently left deprived. As the pandemic rapidly progressed, medical staff in the emergency departments and what is now known as the COVID wards and COVID ICUs quickly became overwhelmed and overworked. This new reality required surgical trainees to rapidly redeploy to help meet the rising hospital needs. With no clear end to this pandemic, surgical trainees worry they will not reach the appropriate milestones and acquire the amount of surgical experience required to become competent surgeons. As a result, a rapid solution should be found and applied to remedy this newly created gap in surgical education. The measures we recommend include access to regular webinars from world-renowned experts, increased implementation of surgical simulation, selective redeployment of residents to favor level-appropriate learning opportunities and lastly, the active participation of trainees in telemedicine with an increase in surgical exposure as soon as the restrictions are lifted.

Abstract:

Universal design for instruction (UDI) is a teaching strategy that has proved its value in the process of educational inclusion, resulting in a fundamental tool for the achievement of objective 4 of the 2030 agenda for sustainable development. The lack of time of university professors and the scarce training offered in this subject make it difficult to know and implement UDI in university classrooms, increasing the risk of exclusion of students with some kind of disability. This study analyses the level of knowledge and implementation of the principles and strategies of UDI by university professors. Those professors did not have prior training, but they had access to the Curricular Adaptations of University Students with Special Educational Needs (CAUSSEN) tool as guide to implement different guidelines. The CAUSSEN tool is a document, developed by the Unit of Attention to People with Disability, in which there is information about UDI guidelines and accommodations referring to students with special educational needs. Results show a wide implementation of the UDI principles, despite the low level of previous knowledge its principles. This study concludes that there are practical alternatives to the lack of training, and that teachers’ self-perception of their own effectiveness and ability to cope with the inclusion of all students should be strengthened.
