The several states and territories are hereby entitled to reimbursement for the same proportion of the salaries and benefits of qualified classroom teachers for those professional engaged in basic instruction, the federal government will contribute that same share of these employment costs as the teachers’ students are eligible for the free school lunch program.

The states and territories will be reimbursed based on approved plans and estimates of the numbers and costs with the U.S. Secretary of Education, who may approve definitions of basic instruction, classroom teachers, teacher qualifications, salary programs, and any incentive pay upon which the secretary may authorize quarterly advances and adjustments.

The states may include teachers from charter schools, schools being run by a contractor and non-public schools within an improved plan only in so far as these serve the eligible population.

About $15,000 for a million teachers - some with a small amount some at 100 % = 15 billion - not much more than title I and within range - even if twice that - If the feds pay teachers resources are free for other critical needs.

Then we can move toward a realistic salary - working conditions - qualifications - promotion and specialization system - professionals are the critical in education - then with this base things can really be improved.

The American Public and both parties say that education is their top priority but school reform has become so complex that no one understands what is going on - or is the story reported. Incremental is natural but has a PR problem when there is the complete lack of focus.

The bills them-self are endless - there needs to be a clear focus - something beyond testing because tests do not create solutions only let us know what we already know - a lot of children are not up to grade level.

The only meaningful answer is competition - charter schools if not vouchers - the charter provisions in the current bill are grants and information to state education agencies - or the fox gets the grants for the chickens or http://www.wiredbrain.net/public-policy.htm for a restructured with the feds taking a major responsibility for instruction. ( State and local build building, transportation, overhead and administration ) All this sound and fury will not do much - but then something is better than nothing. http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c107:S.1.PCS original bill to extend programs and activities under the Elementary and

Basic Education as a federal responsibility

:

The national interest and general welfare require a large federal role in public compulsory education. This was not as true in the last centuries but is clearly one of the most important if not the most important federal function. "A 2000 PricewaterhouseCoopers report found that intellectual assets now account for 78 percent of the total value of American S&P 500 companies."

"According to a 2000 OECD [Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development] report, since 1985, the expansion of knowledge-based industries has outpaced gross domestic product (GDP) growth in the developed countries. Knowledge-based industries now account for more than half of OECD-wide GDP." Welcome, to the Knowledge Age.

BUT since we are a federal system and have a long history of local school boards we can not just start from scratch.Each state with consultations with local school system should come up with a plan to provide basic education - reading ( the nation reads ) writing ( the nation writes ) algebra and other math ( the nation reasons and calculates ) students knows geography, history, government, humanities, the sciences and the scientific methods - all standards and evaluations set by the states.

Then there is a calculation of what the direct provision of these educational services cost.

Then the application for expected expenditures for the next quarter of 75 % of the costs as a entitlement - with adjustments for over and under payments from the last payment.

The states should report how much would be used for property tax relief - how much for salaries ( and if there would be a state wide pay scales with steps - grades like the GS system ).


These costs should not include support, administration, transportation, athletics, construction, maintenance, bureaucracy, etc. Because these costs remain state and local responsibility and are too much a can of worms.

The national estimated cost per student for instruction could be fairly clear at about $ 2,500 for elementary and $ 4,500 for secondary ( half the total cost ) x 50 million students ( 1 million x $ 1000 = 1 billion ) so 50 million x $ 3,500 = $ 175 Billion x 75 % = $ 132 billion. From the sums appropriated ( or by entitlement as it used to be ) and the allotment under this subpart, subject to the conditions set forth in this section, the Secretary ( DOE ) shall from time to time pay to each State that has a plan developed in accordance with regulations an amount equal to 75 per centime of the total sum expended under the plan in meeting the costs of State, district, county, or other local basic educational instructional services.

The federal government will pay 75 % of teachers salaries and benefits ( involved in direct instruction = about 2.5 million teachers @ $ 30,000 = 75 billion ) and left to the states and local school boards, all the other costs - administration, football, transportation, construction, utilities, then: We could become a modern civilized society with a world class school system, social justice, economic growth, and political democracy.

There could be substantial tax relief on property taxes - standards set for teacher certification - much better salaries for some low paid teachers and salary grades for high performing teachers tied to the GS federal scales:http://www.seemyad.com/gov/salary.htm

The big problems in American Public education are:

There is no career stream for classroom teachers - pay is only based on seniority and there is not much difference if you stay in instruction from start to finish.


There has been a vast growth in administrative overhead from 15 % in the 1960's to 50 % today so increases in resources are absorbed by overhead. In the last decade there has been a vast underhanded growth in ESE ( special education ) from 5 % of population to 25 % and a jungle of paperwork without functional outcomes.

The labeling of students make standards even harder - ESE students are not counted or counted differently - so if someone doesn't learn they are learning disabled and labeled - given more resources - and excluded from the testing of school outcomes.

There has been for decades weak support for standards - support in general but backing off when the tire hits the road and students actually FLUNK and are held back! Standards means that teachers have to teach content - multiplication tables, spelling, parts of speech, geography, algebra - not always fun and often hard - and student have to do their homework.Teachers can be tied to the GS 4 to GS 12 depending on performance - and the DOD ( Military base schools ) teacher pay scales as a base with districts able to do add ons.

Religion and theology

[1] Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.


Reminds me of the republican "Christian cops" debate.

Religion is one area of human experience, theology is another, Politics is one part of our lives, Ideology another, we tend to get them confused. Religion is an experience, theology is an idea; politics is about power, Ideology about beliefs.

We tend to get experience, feeling, passions confused with ideas, theories, thoughts and positions. Gestalt is a psychological practice that works to make the separation clear by the direct experience of feeling. To understand the difference is very useful in getting control of choices in life, government, education, health and science.

People and communities can’t work hard and progress to a place they don’t understand and have never experienced.

They never have been on the mountain top and don’t care. You can’t create a great school if you never experience a great school - all is flat gray and dull. You can’t create a great company if there is no occurrence of greatness, you can’t create a great society without the image, the vision of greatness.

Politics is one thing, ideology is another.


Thoughts are about power. We use our minds to get ahead, influence others, get a sense or feeling of control. But without passion, desire, feeling there is a hollow or emptiness in pure knowledge. Pure passion is wayward or dangerous and we feel the need to control or feeling with reason. Thus an internal conflict between what we desire and what we do.


Theology is about power in the church as an institution - Rome or Henry VIII - by social control of feelings and people and institutions.

Ideology is about control of social power by law and police and military force.

The God police of the Christian activists would control the bedrooms and doctors offices,

The green Cops of the Mullahs, Neighbor watch committees of China,

The KGB, CIA, FBI or DEA.

Religion is an experience of the holy ghost. You can have religious experience. You can know when someone is genuinely spiritual or just using God talk to get ahead or change the power balance. Commercial are expert in connecting feeling to product in order to create actions - sell the product. Commercial give the illusion of ideas but are pure feeling. Politics often does the same - the illusion of policy designed to connect feeling - positive and negative to people and parties in order to sell the product which is power, control, favors, winners and losers.

OUT of the box -


In order for people, institutions, and societies to advance to the next level - ( Blue, Red, yellow, brown, white, green, black and gold ) the difference between passion or feeling ( the colors are different levels of spiritual awareness ) and ideas that gain power, control, progress and win - they must directly experience the difference - since otherwise it’s an ideas about feeling not feeling, or an idea about religion not spiritual, or an idea about love not love, or an idea about health not health, or an idea about a more perfect society not an experience of a more perfect union.

People and communities can’t work hard and progress to a place they don’t understand and have never experienced.

They never have been on the mountain top and don’t care. You can’t create a great school if you never experience a great school - all is flat gray and dull. You can’t create a great company if there is no occurrence of greatness, you can’t create a great society without the image, the vision of greatness.

  • [1] Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
  • [2] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing.
  • [3] And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profiteth me nothing.
  • [4] Love suffereth long, and is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
  • [5] Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
  • [6] Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
  • [7] Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
  • [8] Love never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
  • [9] For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
  • [10] But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
  • [11] When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
  • [12] For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

    IT is worth the time to wander among the older pages. If you spend a few hours a unique experience may happen. You begin to see things in a new way and it begins to make sense - really it does.

    New ideas don't happen all at once, it takes time, and since everyone is different and comes here from a different place this is an internal dialog - the inter-writing - and takes a little getting used to.. for some not too long and for others much slower - but believe the old man, it's worth it.

    The point is synergy.

    The service will take shape around your needs and desires and from the effects of stable, dynamic groups. People who turn each other on ! Only thirty students at a time in class. Fifty dollars a month for private and group lessons for as long as you feel you need it. Private help available for most hours, with very quick responses. After gaining certain skills, and "learning to learn" we have or will have free web pages, help with http editors, continuous contact forums, chats, message board, e-mail, IRC, Net Meetings, ftp, newsgroup, listserver, real audio, and soon CuSeeMe for those that want to, and lots of new systems as they come on line. If you give a person a fish they will be better off but dependent and limited.
    If you help someone learn to fish they will become free. It is only practical the "learn to learn" and become free.


    The class includes the $10.00 a month, THE SYNERGY CLUB charter membership, which than can go on forever at that rate as a charter member.

    RE:

    The Way of the CLUB: Progress Report:


    The system for learning about the web should be on the web - and needs to be a "learn to learn" style education links. Any specific program or system has a half life of one year, human years in cyber-space have become dog years. Almost everything will be different in two years. You can't spend one year learning a program that will be gone in two years. Learning to learn means you learn how to figure systems out, and how to get help when you need it. When all else fails read the instructions.

    What lawyers, and most professionals, do is learn how to use resources, libraries, and other information systems to understand how to make a specific case.

    They learn a particular area of the law for one case, then move on.

    They can't know "the law" but they know the context and the basics of "the system"


    The Web business is by far the most important additional skill most people can use, need, or are required to have in the fastest growing job market. We will be able to collect credit card fees very soon, and look forward to having paying students.

    The opening deal is $50.00 a month while the student need a lot of help. For this fee we solve problems for them. We will help them find and down load the software they need. We hold their hands as they write their first web page. We help them set up meeting, talk to others on the web, and provide a lot of personal assistance. In order to do this I am on line from 10 AM EDT ( GMT +4 = 14:00 ) until 2 PM ( GMT 18:00 ) with a chat channel open IRC /join #synergybunchbunch, the talk channel where I check in every hour, Net Meeting open and Cool talk as well. I post my address/phone # on talk and people can call me. I then walk them through what ever they need to do.

    They have other programs running at the same time so I am there to answer questions on the spot. After they are far enough along ( it may only take a month ) they pay $10.00 club membership to join groups, keep up their web pages, find out what's new and interesting, and keep their skill up to date, with very limited personal assistance, but they can learn to help each other. It's quite a good deal, and we will raise, double and triple prices soon.

    We are building a learning system for the Internet. We have the site in California, Turnpike, which has good traffic reports. It's a big collection of papers on education links, small schools with the theme of learning and doing. I have a "beta" test group that are doing lessons, trying various systems, and we can see how it goes. Some students ( rather few ) have figured out the basics of handling the technology. This means they can move files around, leave messages, write in a format for the Internet ( hypertext pages ), and other skills needed just to manage the environment.


    The second site, trevista, here in DeLand, that Kevin ( when he has time ) works on is also fully operational. When the directories to the Internet ( the card catalogs for Web pages ) registers the new site we intent to move our activities there. We have a message board and a very rough chat site. People can leave messages and if they arrange a time, talk (written notes ) on the web. We have been trying to get voice and chalk board ( white board ) working with a common meeting. Net meeting does work and I have talked ( voice on a microphone ) with people from Australia, Hong Kong, and Europe.

    The white board can show slides, pictures, charts as well and typing and drawing. If we prepare a presentation, powerpoint, we can share with anyone hooked in, while talking about the demonstration.

    Many people don't care about academic credit. We are still trying to find a college that will offer the program, collect the fees and pay us 60% to 80% or more for actually running the classes. When we have other people teaching other subjects we then split fees with them.

    There are several colleges who appear to be interested. Many people, however, are happy with non-credit adult education.

    The student work is on the site, people can refer employers to their web site and display what they can do.

    The need for computer literacy involves millions around the world.

    The TOUR gives an idea of the methods we want to use in building the VIRTUAL CLASSROOM.


    The system could be rented as the training facilities listed below ( hocf.htm

    is a list of corporate universities ) as well as to schools, colleges, and Universities around the world. It is unreasonable to expect every institution to build it's own electric classroom when rented space can be more up-to-date and have the interactive features needed.

    To use a classroom on the Global Village School house is as easy as getting a site. We assign http://www.wiredbrain.net is synergy school but ... /yourclassroom could be you - there is VDO, real audio, BBS, work groups, FTP, directories, files, libraries, office space, ADMINistrative offices, book store, et al.

    and you can also write me at http://www.altavista.forum.digital.com/talk/

    or we have the MS IE net meeting established you can contact me on pflaump@cfl.rr.cpflaump@cfl.rr.cpflaump@cfl.rr.cpflaump@cfl.rr.comn talk at 14:00 ( Monday to Friday ) Also once you have the program on IRC /join #synergybunchbunch and on netscape's Cool-talk. This puts you fully in touch. We than can talk while you have a browser window open and down load and set up what ever else we need.

    Then we move on the web home page of your own that you can ftp to the site and download to edit. GO TO THE CLUB

    GO TO THE WORLD FORUM

    GO TO documents > INTERNET 101 open Roadmap OTHER SITE WITH BASICS http://titan.ecs.fullerton.edu/~williams/internet/internet.html


    The Intranet's Page


    The messages Page

    This is also a test of the new mailer. but you can also write me at club.htm We may have paying students. You could take on a few. You would have to arrange a time to meet.

    Then you help them get started on your roadmap. $ 50.00 a month really should not be more than three hours a student. If we split fees the price should go up ? What do you think ? 60/40 60% for the instructor, 40 % for the site - I would think about $100 ( $ 60 to you and $40 to the Synergy Network ) Private lessons like we did is much better - Kevin did it with me on IRC - talk you in - when we have voice it will be even better and winchat is real time note board.

    The talk on forum is useful to post where are you notes and meet me on net meeting - If we look toward sub-contractors - and you become Internet 101, and we open another 102, we can expand - 101 should be step by step and you are good at that ! Also my messages just confuse people - we need to stay on topic. My idea is that you grow into Internet 101, I start 102, and then someone takes that over, then office intranets, and other topics on the best.htm list http://www.wiredbrain.net/ best.htm MAYBE a BIG demand for GRAPHICS...

    We were planning on being on line from GMT 14:00 to 18:00 ( Florida is -4 GMT) if that's meets your needs - you check in on the hour =+/- .05 minutes and I will help you get going. Check in at http://www.altavista.forum.digital.com/talk/

    or we have the MS IE net meeting established you can contact me on pflaump@cfl.rpflaump@cfl.rpflaump@cfl.rpflaump@cfl.rr.comn server. ulsbeta.microsoft.com I will post my IP # on talk at 14:00 ( Monday to Friday ) Also once you have the program on IRC /join #synergybunchbunch and on netscape's Cool-talk. This puts you fully in touch. We than can talk while you have a browser window open and down load and set up what ever else we need.

    Then we move on the web home page of your own that you can ftp to the site and download to edit.

    now works. ATT answered it's phone and fixed the problem. This has to be a big plus for them. IF YOU DON'T want the synergy News and http://www.wiredbrain.netdocuments JOURNAL just respond to sender UNSUBSCRIBE - I now will get the message. I have the same problem with MCI can't can't get in touch with them.

    They call about the bill but can't be reached for service.

    RE: A proposal: A classroom on the Internet

    RE: Active vs. passive learning:

    I have in http://www.wiredbrain.net dozens of papers about active and cooperative learning.

    The difference can be seen in our NEW Internet 101 class ( http://www.wiredbrain.netinternet101/internet10 1/htm )

    ( press space bar )

    URL: http://www.wiredbrain.nettour.htm TITLE: GVS-IC

    The Global Village Schools - an interactive classroom

    GOALS: Development of a model prototype Internet classroom that will:

    1.) Test teaching learning methods for different types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets.

    2.) Be a test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.

    LOGIC:
    Rational, there is no one right way.

    The concept of remote education and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology transfer methods.

    There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their specific application and gain the valuable experience they need before they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives, encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands capacities, equipment configurations and protocols .


    There is no program plan only a process. For some idea of the commercial content look at our Best List.

    VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible now and that will be just as true for this time next year !
