iNACOL - May 2014 Leadership Webinar - Closing the "Advanced Achievement Gap"iNACOL
iNACOL | May 14, 2014 | Webinar: Closing the "Advanced Achievement Gap"
Nationally, many students of color and students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds perform among the top 25 percent of all students in reading and math at the beginning of high school. Many of them, however, leave high school with lower college success predictors than their high-achieving white and more advantaged peers. Schools can take action to better serve these students. To prepare students for college and career, high schools must balance their attention carefully, ensuring that low-achievers catch up and high-achievers don't lose ground. In this webinar, Christina Theokas and Marni Bromberg of the Education Trust will share research and insight into how to better serve this group.
Personalized blended and online courses can provide powerful delivery systems to increase access and equity for underserved students. Educators and school leaders need to ensure students have access to high-quality new learning opportunities. The Education Trust's research has major implications for how to increase educational opportunities and provide equity. This webinar will include a real world example of how to use blended and online learning to close the achievement gap for high-achieving poor and minority students.

ARE WE EFFECTIVELY TEACHING TODAY’S COLLEGE STUDENT?ijejournal
Evidence suggests that twenty first century college students have less aptitude and less interest in academic
learning than their predecessors. This poses a challenge to faculty who are charged with passing
knowledge to the next generation of teachers, scientists, managers and others whose field necessitates a
degree from a college or university. The authors examine this assertion by taking a closer look at how
faculty provide intellectual stimuli to their students, how technology helps or hinders learning, and the
complex relationship between faculty and students. Three broad themes are explored: helping students
understand the higher education experience, keeping students engaged in and out of class, and
continuously assessing for improvement in students’ relationships with those charged with educating them.
Specific recommendations, grounded in research, are made for each area explored. The authors conclude
that making changes in how faculty approach the experiences students have, will significantly improve the
quality of those experiences.

The Pandemic and Social Change: Ageism and Intersectional DisparitiesBonner Foundation
A presentation for the University of Pennsylvania Higher Education Leadership Conference in January 2022. This presentation explores the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on higher education through a lens of ageism, ethnicity, race, gender, and other aspects of social identity and justice. Developed based on research and experience by Carol Kalin (University of Pennsylvania), Jamille Nagtalon-Ramos (Rutgers University) and Ariane Hoy (Bonner Foundation).
Workshop Description from Program: The COVID 19 pandemic has exacerbated longstanding disparities in many aspects of American life—from healthcare to higher education.The presenters in this session were co-authors, along with Susan Klusmeier (C15), of a paper on ageism assigned in Dr. Shaun Harper’s last class on diversity, equity, and inclusion at Penn GSE. Entitled “Consider Gina:A Case of Intersectionality of Age, Gender, and Ethnicity in Higher Education,” the paper focused on the problems younger minoritized professionals encounter as they advance in their careers. A literature review revealed that ageism differs from other aspects of identity in that it can be said to transcend culture. During the pandemic, notably, vaccines and other medical interventions were explicitly rationed based on chronological age. In higher education, statistics reflect steep declines in community college attendance, important to social mobility for lower-income students, while at the other end of the spectrum, returns on the large endowments of elite schools are breaking all previous records.After a summary of the paper and some brief comments on ageism and long-term disability in higher education, we offer an update on social justice work at colleges and universities as well as an overview of the pandemic’s impact on academic medicine.

WV has launched a new service to help students prepare for and succeed in college — college counseling by text message. The pilot project, funded by the Kresge Foundation, “nudges” students to complete key college tasks, such as completing the FAFSA or connecting with academic advisors. The system also increases students’ access to college-planning help by allowing them to text college counselors. This presentation provides an overview of WV’s model and outline strategies for implementation.

Enabling Research without Geographical Boundaries via Collaborative Research ...Sandra Gesing
Collaborative research infrastructures on global scale for earth and space sciences face a plethora of challenges from technical implementations to organizational aspects. Science gateways – also known as virtual research environments (VREs) or virtual laboratories - address part of such challenges by providing end-to-end solutions to aid researchers to focus on their specific research questions without the need to become acquainted with the technical details of the complex underlying infrastructures. In general, they provide a single point of entry to tools and data irrespective of organizational boundaries and thus make scientific discoveries easier and faster. The importance of science gateways has been recognized on national as well as on international level by funding bodies and by organizations. For example, the US NSF has just funded a Science Gateways Community Institute, which offers support, consultancy and open accessible software repositories for users and developers; Horizon 2020 provides funding for virtual research environments in Europe, which has led to projects such as VRE4EIC (A Europe-wide Interoperable Virtual Research Environment to Empower Multidisciplinary Research Communities and Accelerate Innovation and Collaboration); national or continental research infrastructures such as XSEDE in the USA, Nectar in Australia or EGI in Europe support the development and uptake of science gateways; the global initiatives International Coalition on Science Gateways, the RDA Virtual Research Environment Interest Group as well as the IEEE Technical Area on Science Gateways have been founded to provide global leadership on future directions for science gateways in general and facilitate awareness for science gateways. This presentation will give an overview on these projects and initiatives aiming at supporting domain researchers and developers with measures for the efficient creation of science gateways, for increasing their usability and sustainability under consideration of the breadth of topics in the context of science gateways. It will go into detail for the challenges the community faces for collaborative research on global scale without geographical boundaries and will provide suggestions for further enhancing the outreach to domain researchers.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

7. Is Ben a student your program
can support?
Benjamin is a 14 year old African American
male. He is a repeat 8th grader admitted to a
7th-12th school with low SSAT test scores but
glowing recommendations from teachers all
who also noted his reserved demeanor. He
has a 3.5 GPA from his previous independent
middle school. He plays 2 sports, is active in
his church and is on the debate team. The
academic access program that placed him in
his previous middle school has tutoring on
Saturdays for placed students, but Saturday
games has limited his participation.
He had some success on his mid-term first
semester grades. He received a “B” in advance
Algebra 1 class, but a “C” in Spanish and a
“B-” in English. According to the teacher this
is partly due to his below grade writing skills.
His English teacher’s comments also note that
it doesn’t appear that Ben is making an effort.

u Of those students who did not feel academically prepared, the number one
reasons noted for not feeling academically prepared was deficient study skills.
u (Nearly half) 42.32% felt extremely prepared or very prepared to meet the social
challenges they faced at independent schools.
u Although meeting extremely high academic standards had a slight edge as the
reason why students did not feel socially prepared to meet challenges at
independent schools, there was a fairly even percentages for all given possibilities
including lack of awareness among students and faculty about diversity issues,
dealing with competitive peers, and adjusting to culture shock.

at independent schools.
u Poor study skills ranked as they greatest factor that led to students being unprepared
for independent school, followed by poor writing skills.
u Educators rates students affiliated with academic enrichment programs as only

u The top two reasons given by educators as stumbling blocks for students being
challenged socially at independent schools were difficulty meeting extremely high
academic standards and balancing academics, extra curricular and social and family
life.
