The Sound Of Silence: Social Work, The Academy, And Iraq, Scott Harding
The Sound Of Silence: Social Work, The Academy, And Iraq, Scott Harding
The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare
Despite the imposition of economic sanctions against Iraq in 1990, the social work academy has ignored the impact of this global social policy promoted by the international community. Though evidence existed for more than 10 years that sanctions contributed to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of children and other vulnerable groups in Iraq, while also crippling the nation's health care and social infrastructure, the profession has remained silent. The implications of this case study suggest a need for greater engagement by social work researchers and the profession on global issues.

Educational Considerations
Almost a decade ago, the National Education Commission on Time and Learning warned Americans that schools were unable to meet the demands of a new global economy. For 150 years, schools had operated on schedules that suited only the top students, while average and poor students simply dropped out to make decent livings on farms or in factories.

Can Science Methods Really Be Taught On-Line?, W. M. Frazier
Can Science Methods Really Be Taught On-Line?, W. M. Frazier
Journal of Mathematics and Science: Collaborative Explorations
In this paper, the process in which both project-based curriculum strategies and Blackboard web-based technology were utilized to develop on-line methods courses to prepare science teachers is described. A discussion of the curriculum design process includes a rationale for using project-based instruction in methods courses, along with a rationale for using Blackboard, a web-based technology, as the environment for the course. The course‘s potential for creating highly qualified science teachers as defined by the No Child Left Behind legislation of 2001 and the National Science Teacher Association‘s Standards for Science Teacher Preparation will be explored [1].

Intellectual Humility And The Art Of Disagreement At The Christian College, James S. Spiegel
Intellectual Humility And The Art Of Disagreement At The Christian College, James S. Spiegel
Growth: The Journal of the Association for Christians in Student Development
Education at a Christian college properly features both honest inquiry and unwavering allegiance to core theological standards, such as those embodied in the classical creeds. This combination of commitments can create tension for the Christian educator, as insistence upon doctrinal allegiance can inadvertently reinforce dogmatic attitudes so common among late adolescents. In this paper I discuss the virtue of intellectual humility and its importance for combating student dogmatism in an atmosphere of steadfast Christian commitment. After distinguishing between theological essentials and disputable matters, I discuss philosophical and theological grounds for being intellectually humble. And I illustrate ways in which faculty …
