Abstract:
This study explored the beliefs and behaviors of elementary physical education providers in California relative to the purpose and function of elementary physical education. Research on these types of beliefs and behaviors is important because of the implications on physical education programs conducted in the elementary schools. Properly implemented physical education has been demonstrated to have a positive impact on the fitness levels and motor skill development of students, and such education may lead to the habituation of lifelong physical activity. Randomly selected teachers in southern California school districts completed a three-part questionnaire assessing their beliefs and behaviors regarding the ideal purpose and actual function of elementary physical education. Results of this study indicate that participants were aware of the importance of physical education, but overall, failed to exhibit behaviors that matched their beliefs. These results are pertinent because, in many school districts, primarily nonspecialists will be providing physical education instruction at the elementary level. Understanding the beliefs of non-specialists will help university teacher education programs identify programmatic changes to better prepare elementary school teachers.

Abstract:
For the past decade, researchers affiliated with the National Science Foundation-funded High Performance Wireless Research and Education Network (HPWREN) have been working with Native American education communities on an array of Internet-enabled activities, including the Live Interactive Virtual Explorations (LIVE) pilot project. One of the communities involved with the pilot LIVE project is the Pala Native American Learning Center, which is located in rural San Diego County, California. This paper discusses five case studies encompassing LIVE activities between Pala tribal community members and field scientists/educators throughout southern California. Using laptops equipped with off-the-shelf accessories and freeware, the five pilot case studies demonstrate the advantages and disadvantages of utilizing the LIVE concept for real-time distance education programs at rural Native American communities.

Abstract:
The School and Teacher Programs of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County have partnered with the La Brea Tar Pits and Museum (LBTPM) and the Invertebrate Paleontology (LACMIP) collection to create two “citizen curation” exercises dubbed “Project Paleo”. Classroom kits were created with unsorted fossils from either LBPTM or from a local invertebrate paleontological field site, to be sorted and identified by local elementary and middle school students and then returned to the museum for curation, analysis, and research purposes. Each kit contains background information about the project and fossils, and an identification guide to assist the students and teachers. The “Project Paleo: Rancho La Brea” kit contains three tablespoons of unsorted fossil matrix from LBTPM’s Project 23. Groups of students learn about past and present food webs of the Los Angeles Basin, then sort the matrix into several categories (bones, plants, other fossils, and rocks) using a guide with drawn examples of each. An online iNaturalist (inaturalist.org) project also serves as an identification resource as well as a platform by which students can contribute photos for identification by staff researchers. This project is aimed at middle schoolers and over 700 students have used the sorting kits. Results will help to recreate past ecosystems of Southern California and help to inform a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded project, “A Mouse’s Eye View of Rancho La Brea”. The “Project Paleo: Marine Invertebrates of Southern California” kit produced by LACMIP, contains approximately two cups of washed but unsorted coarse fossil matrix from a salvaged (now destroyed) construction site. This kit is aimed at 5th grade Los Angeles Unified School District classrooms and homeschooling families. Students are asked to sort fossils by species and use included identification cards to identify the sorted fossils to the best of their ability. Results of this project will be included in an NSF funded digitization project and will contribute to research on the paleoecology of Pleistocene Southern California. Early evaluation of both kits has shown positive feedback from students and educators, as well as some room to improve instructions to students. These kits are designed to conform to Next Generation Science Standards while generating useful data for museum scientists. Collections staff are able to outsource the curation of critical data to students who get the experience of handling real museum fossils and contributing to the body of paleontological research.

Abstract:
The Universal Teacher for Orchestra and Band Instruments ( UT), a class method by Joseph E. Maddy and Thaddeus P. Giddings published by the Conn Musical Instrument Company in 1923, was the subject of this study. Research questions focused on (1) details surrounding the writing and publishing of the UT; (2) philosophical, psychological, and pedagogical principles behind the method; (3) the influence of the UT on class teaching and subsequent books; and (4) implications of this research for modern practice. Maddy and Giddings wrote the UT from 1920 to 1922 while teaching summer methods courses together at Chautauqua, New York, and at the University of Southern California. The authors designed the book to appeal to children by applying the song method from elementary vocal music to instrumental instruction. This pedagogy differed from previous instrumental methods in that instructional material consisted entirely of melodies rather than scales and exercises. The UT also employed a detailed, systematic series of procedures intended to maximize the use of class time, hold students accountable for their progress, and allow independent learning with as little teacher intervention as possible.

Abstract:
This study examined collaboration practices of resource programs at middle/junior high school levels in southern California.' Participants were 124 resource teachers from 69 schools responding to a survey that asked about the collaboration model at their school site. Results indicate that resource programs at the middle/junior high school level are a combination of collaboration and traditional pull-out models. The majority of teachers viewed the collaboration model positively. Administration support was evident. Teacher attitude and teacher personality were ranked as more important than the degree of severity of the student's disability as important factors for a successful collaboration model. These results may have important implications for policy decisions regarding integration of students with disabilities into general education programs.

Abstract:
The burgeoning interest in the use of microcomputers in the education of special needs students raises a number of new issues for program administrators. Reactions of special education administrators to microcomputer technology in terms of the development of policies and practices governing adoption and use of microcomputers were investigated. A representative sample of special education administrators in a 4-county area in Southern California responded to a comprehensive survey dealing with several aspects of microcomputer technology. Levels of adoption of microcomputers varied widely across districts, with half the sample reporting no special education ownership of microcomputers while others had acquired a number of machines. Decision-making policies and practices indicated high levels of cooperation between special and regular education programs in acquiring hardware and software and in providing teacher training. Implications for subsequent directions for microcomputer innovation are discussed. In particular, training efforts for special education personnel need to become more specific to the instructional uses of microcomputers with special needs students.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to provide a descriptive case study of the implementation of a school-based new teacher support program and its relationship to the existing culture and norms at the individual school sites. The study also investigated significant factors characteristic to new teacher support programs and their interactions, and the study analyzed a program as it evolved over a four-year period within the Lodi Unified School District. There were eighty-four subjects, of whom forty-nine responded to a survey. Eleven subjects from three school sites were interviewed in-depth following the survey. The survey consisted of questions about the subjects' educational and project background, their involvement with reflective practice, school culture, support for new teachers, and job difficulty, and the survey included a series of open-ended questions. The semi-structured interviews asked respondents to respond to difficulties faced as a new teacher and changes that occurred at the site because of the New Teacher Project. Research questions asked if the Lodi New Teacher Project provided effective support for new teachers; the program's effect on traditional school culture; the role of the administrator in changing site culture; elements that support new teachers; and if site-based programs help retain professionals in the field. Findings from the surveys, interviews, archival records, and observations showed that site-based induction practices promoted extremely positive relationships with colleagues, administrators, and district-office personnel. In addition, the activities supported new teacher needs of strong emotional support, providing materials and suggestions for instructional improvement and opportunities for shared leadership at each site. Research showed that positive changes in each school culture and expectations about professional relationships and collegiality increased. Emotional support was shown to be the single most important factor in new Teacher induction. The retention rate of new teachers involved with the Lodi New Teacher Project was over eighty-six percent after five years.

Abstract:
This book chapter reports an Enhancing Education Through Technology Competitive Grant (EETT-C) project that was designed to improve student achievement and to promote new media literacy. During 2005-2006, the project served 30 sixth to eighth grade mathematics teachers and approximately 3,250 students in Palm Springs Unified School District, a medium-sized, high-poverty school district in Southern California. The research-based program consisted of a student program and faculty development. Strategies used for the student program included data-based decision making, cues, timely feedback, visual and contextualized learning, synthesis of learning for deeper understanding, and parental involvement. Strategies used for the faculty development involved coaching and mentoring to develop teacher expertise, assessment of instructional activities related to student achievement, access to differentiated professional development opportunities, and access to high quality curricular resources. The authors hope that the chapter will inform educators of a better design for professional development and program evaluation.
