Regaining Our Youth, Empowering Our Communities: Service Learning And Community Development, Glenn D. Israel, Thomas W. Ilvento

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

This paper describes a development process which builds upon the strengths of community service learning and community development by providing teenagers a chance to get involved in the community while providing a valuable service leading to local action. The strategy focuses on building partnerships among students, teachers, and local leaders to learn about community leadership, conduct a community needs assessment survey, and address a local need through a community development process. Experience from projects in Florida and Kentucky suggests that this strategy can help youth get involved in the community while providing a sounder basis for the community to act …

Tourism As A Sustainable Rural Development Strategy: Building Consensus In Resident Attitudes, Paul B. Siegel, Paul M. Jakus

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

A survey of community leaders, broadly categorized as business people, public officials, and conservationists, was conducted to assess attitudes toward tourism in a six-county region of the Southern Appalachian Highlands of Tennessee and North Carolina. Broad support for tourism development was found across all groups, with the caveat that economic growth not take place at the expense of community character or environmental quality. In general, however, members of conservation organizations were more concerned about the negative impacts of tourism development than were business people or public officials. The methodology employed highlights issues of agreement and conflict among influential community groups. …

Central Bank Autonomy: Historical And General Perspective., S. B. Falegan

Economic and Financial Review

The issue of central bank autonomy is as old as central banking. This paper further reinforces the view that the debate is a continuous one, particularly in the present circumstance of the Central Bank of Nigeria's history. Central bank autonomy is often discussed in the context of the functions it performs. Some of the functions are statutory, non-statutory and developmental. Usually such functions include serving as fiscal agent to the government, lender of last resort for private financial institutions during emergencies, and a regulator and supervisor of the financial system. As the principal public sector agency charged with the execution …

Manpower Training And Development For Efficient Central Banking: The Cbn Experience., S. Mohammed

Economic and Financial Review

The scope of training and manpower development as a management function is very wide indeed and, while the cost involved is extremely high, very little is known about the pay-offs. Training and manpower development are not an end in themselves. Rather, they provide the necessary opportunity for employees to sharpen their skills and acquire knowledge and experience, which they can apply in the execution of their jobs. For example, if you manage by objectives, as you should do, you will have specific goals to accomplish. However, you may not know how to plan effectively, how to organise, how to establish …

Teacher-Mediated Learning For Young Readers: Successful Strategies With Predictable Book Reading, Janice Porterfield Stewart

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Young children's emergent literacy development can be enhanced by storybook reading, discussing the books, paying attention to the print and illustrations, and by involving parents (Heath, 1983; Snow and Ninio, 1986; Mason, Peterman,Dunning, and Stewart, 1992; Keer and Mason, 1993). Often children from high risk backgrounds have limited experiences handling books, being read to, asking questions and at tending to visual stimuli found in books. Consequently, in the beginning of kindergarten many children are not reading and some do not know the letters of the alphabet. However, predictable books provide interactions with prints and pictures which can be a powerful …

The Last Mile: A Race For Local Telecommunications Competition Policy, Craig D. Dingwall

Federal Communications Law Journal

Although AT&T relinquished control of its local exchange carriers (LECs) in 1983, competition in the local telecommunications market has not flourished. Instead, Bell Operating Companies (BOCs) still retain the bulk of the market share for local exchange services, and most customers cannot access alternative local exchange service providers. In the long-distance market, however, increased competition has provided customers with better services at lower costs. In order to reproduce the notable consumer advantages found in the long-distance market, consumers must have consistent, convenient access to a multiplicity of alternative service providers.

The Author examines barriers surrounding the lack of competition in …
