You don't have to go it alone! In fact, you probably shouldn't. One of the clearest results of SYEFEST has been the incredible value of the Lead Teacher/Lead Ecologist Partnership. The benefits start with very tangible ones for the teachers participating in SYE Institutes. But, the benefits don't stop there. In fact, one of the most surprising results of SYEFEST was the universal benefit experience by the lead teachers and lead ecologists themselves. They report that the experience of working together to train teachers in schoolyard ecology dramatically altered the way they teach - from all subjects in an elementary classroom to upper level science at the university level.

Extractions: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MELFORT, SASKATCHEWAN - Ralph Goodale, Minister of Public Works and Government Services and Member of Parliament for Wascana, on behalf of the Honourable Jane Stewart, Minister of Human Resources Development Canada, today announced funding of $8,235 through the Youth Employment Strategy. The project, the Tiger Lily School Division's Career Development Program, will give youth between the ages of 15 and 30, from the Pleasantdale, Gronlid, Star City and Naicam areas, the chance to plan their career paths. Local employers will talk to the young participants, who are either in or out of school, about local labour market information and opportunities, and instructors will help them design and develop a career portfolio. The youth will also attend career fairs. "The Government of Canada is committed to helping young people make the often difficult transition from school to work. Career planning is an essential step in making this transition successful," said Minister Goodale. "The Government is proud to work with community partners like the Tiger Lily School Division to help youth in rural Saskatchewan develop career plans and expose them to the vast array of opportunities available right here at home."

Extractions: For Release: August 27, 2001 Enrollments Rise Again as New School Year Begins Attachment More than 1.3 million public school students throughout New Jersey are preparing for a new school year. Enrollment, projected at 1,336,927, continues to follow a decade-long trend of gradual annual increases, but still falls short of the all-time high of 1,432,344 students enrolled in 1973-74. Highlights of the coming school year will include the first administration of a new state exam for high school students, changes in curriculum requirements for high school, growth in early childhood education enrollment in the 30 Abbott school districts, and an expected influx of project plans as school districts throughout the state prepare to replace or upgrade their school buildings under a multi-billion dollar school funding law. In addition, alternatives to traditional public school education are expected to expand with more schools and students participating in charter schools and the Interdistrict Public School Choice Program. The Department of Education will continue to expand its programs to recruit and retain quality teachers in New Jersey through initiatives designed to help local school districts fulfill their staffing needs.
CSMEE Digest 97-5 Getting started in science fairs From planning to judging. Elementary school sciencefor the 90s. on the World Wide Web to support science fairs and projects. http://www.ericse.org/digests/dse98-1.html
Extractions: January 1998 (Updated March 2002) ERIC Clearinghouse for Science, Mathematics, and Environmental Education DIGEST Science fair projects have long been familiar events in schools throughout the country, and they have come to represent science in action, science as inquiry. The investigatory aspect of science fair projects fits wellwith current reform efforts guided by such publications as Science for All Americans, Benchmarks for Scientific Literacy, and the National Science Education Standards. Classroom science is steadily being transformed into a process-driven, inquiry-based area of study, and science fair projects provide additional opportunities for students to become personally and directly involved in scientific investigation. Elementary schools participate in science fairs for a variety of reasons: to stimulate student interest in science, to provide students with opportunities for research and active inquiry, to publicly recognize students' completed projects, and to provide students with opportunities to share their work (Perry,1995). There are many variations in format, but the primary components of a science fair project typically include an investigation, a written research report, a visual display, an oral presentation, and some sort of assessment. Learning some scientific facts or principles is a valuable fringe benefit for students doing projects, but the primary objective for science project work is to teach students to think (Tant, 1992, p.5 .)
Education World® : The Wild World Of Teacher Recruiting Calteach staff members attend job fairs and staff recruit centers are there becausethey are attending school there incentives for people who want to teach here http://www.education-world.com/a_admin/admin281.shtml
Extractions: Alls fair in love, war, and hiring teachers? The situation may not yet be that extreme. But districts with numerous staff openings and the resources to recruit aggressively and pay generously often are reaching across state and district lines to find the teachers they need. And there is little other districts and states can do about it. "There is just no way to defend against it [out-of-state teacher recruiting] when you have no incentives to offer just instability and uncertainty," said Gene Evans, a spokesman for the Oregon Department of Education. State budget deficits have led to teacher layoffs and hiring freezes. "Right now, were a good place for other states to prospect." Oregon, like many states, is seeking to balance its budget; state officials are forecasting a $1.5 billion deficit next year, according to Evans. The bulk of education funding in Oregon (about 80 percent) comes from state money, not local property taxes, so the deficit has meant cuts in education funding. About 3,000 teachers may be laid off during this school year if the legislature does not find a way to increase revenues.

I will be updating this page frequently as I find more information while completing my own job search, as well as adding some of my personal experiences! Scroll down for information on teacher resumes, portfolio development, and job search information. Resumes for Teacher Candidates Resumes are an essential component of the job search. Many times, especially if you havn't met your prospective employer/school district hiring personnel at a career fair, the resume is what will (or won't) get you an interview. Resumes for teacher candidates need to be professional and offer insight regarding your experiences in education. Resumes for teacher candidates are different from those in other fields for 2 main reasons. The first is length. Teacher resumes generally run about 1 1/2 to 2 pages. The second is the emphasis of the resume. You want to highlight all relevant experience with children (which is why it may run over one page). Some components you may want to include in your own resume are education, classroom experience, relevant work experience, activities, honors, professional affiliations, objective (if you have a specific one), names of references, and relevant coursework. As a new teacher candidate, the bulk of your experiences will probably be from university practica, student teaching, and summer jobs (such as camp counseling).
