No Teacher Left Behind By Matthew Pittinsky, Chairman, Blackboard Inc. June 2005 — Industry Perspective Online learning tools provide the foundation for today's professional development programs. Educators are constantly struggling with the growing disparity between an ever-increasing need for professional development resources and the actual ability to provide them in an efficient, timely, and cost-effective manner. States and districts also must wrestle with their own familiar obstacles-fewer and tighter resources, restrictions on time and space, * and increasingly demanding training requirements - when trying to deliver professional development programs. Ensuring that instructors are trained and qualified is further .; complicated by high attrition rates among new teachers, as well as by federal policies in the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act, which created strict guidelines and aggressive timetables for the management of teacher qualification. All of these elements impose severe new pressures on states and districts to deliver professional development services. As school districts race to train and retain their teachers and paraprofessionals, and more teachers fall below the minimum levels of qualification, it is clear that districts can no longer rely solely on traditional means of face-to-face, in-service support to meet their professional development objectives. National summit participants tackle challenges. In response to the search for new approaches to delivering professional development, Blackboard convened a national summit in March 2004 to address the topic of online professional learning. Developed in collaboration with several educational organizations (ISTE, NEA, NACOL, SETDA, CoSN, and the Education Development Center), the event brought together federal-, state-, and district-level instructional leaders; advocates; and researchers to explore how online networks could be employed to augment the accessibility and overall quality of professional development and support. An estimated 130 people attended the 2004 Blackboard Summit to explore how Learning strategies that have transformed much of higher ed and a growing number of K-12 classrooms could also be applied to more traditional approaches of teacher professional learning. Summit participants tackled key policy objectives, from teacher retention and leadership development, to meeting highly qualified provisions of NCLB. They then discussed how online strategies could be applied and evaluated, and produced an initial inventory of online and blended approaches found to be effective in certain contexts, as well as a set of policy challenges and empirical unknowns that the technology and staff development communities will need to collectively tackle in the months and years ahead if successful approaches are to grow. The question is: How .и tlonabli htvi men fonimi proved to i •• ' Пи following reflect* n luluofdliou iloniln lait yen's forum, and Нише forum Imp* i Real vs. I irtual ( TttSSroOHU The advantage ol conducting continuing cd courses in a traditional classroom is that it brings peers together, allowing a dynamic flow of knowledge between/among instructors and teachers. Yet, the disadvantage is that once the session ends, teachers and administrators return to their own classrooms and must apply what they have learned on their own. With no extended support, the community of practice that temporarily was created is lost, and the sense of commonality and community with peers ceases as soon as the classroom empties. Fortunately, Learning solutions are now available that enable schools and districts to offer online professional development solutions which replicate the key instructional tools of a traditional classroom: curriculum delivery, collaboration, communication, and assessment. The advantage of these online corollaries is that they not only encourage and facilitate learning through a class-like experience, but they do so in an uninterrupted fashion that provides continued interaction, added mentoring, and other ongoing support. Hie Power of Deeper Support The distinction between a one-time session versus an ongoing community of practice sparks the question of what continuing professional education really is and what it has the potential to be. As it is often practiced, continuing ed can be a misleading term. In its traditional form, it seldom includes real ongoing professional development beyond discrete educational sessions. Maintaining a satisfactory level of teacher engagement beyond the in-service classroom remains an ever-present problem. Still, new technologies can provide deeper, more powerful educational support that can include ongoing, dynamic elements such as document and lesson plan review, working groups, and discussion boards - all important supplements to on-site face-to-face staff development programs. Such approaches create a true network of learners that can support each other as key lessons get implemented back into the classroom. Conquering Time and Distance Obtaining access to professional development programs has been a particular problem in rural areas. To obtain necessary training, and with the closest training center sometimes several hours away, rural teachers often must deal with significant time/travel constraints, which have been exacerbated by recent budget pressures. Today, the problem goes beyond rural areas. Vast suburbs growing up around large metropolitan areas have created widely distributed school districts in which teachers must confront similar training difficulties. And in large urban districts, scheduling the amount of in-service days needed to cover the full range of instructional, technological, and local policy initiatives - while still increasing classroom hours - has created a daunting challenge. Previous solutions have been unsatisfactory. Distance learning solutions that relied on rigidly scheduled televised training sessions still required teachers to travel to teleconferencing centers or central school locations at a specific time. Such travel represented a significant loss of time, money, and productivity. Cost notwithstanding, teachers also faced the challenge of simply finding the time in their normal schedules to attend sessions at all. Compared with those programs, the utility and convenience of Web-based professional development options are clear. In Blackboard's case, client school systesprawling districts have quickly latched on to new Learning technologies to deliver Web-based professional development programs to their teachers. Urban districts also have expanded online and self paced learning opportunities for busy teachers, particularly around new district reform initiatives or policy changes. Key capabilities such as streaming video, along with the use of synchronous tools, make distance learning an effective and satisfying interactive experience accessible 24/7. Cultivating and Leveraging a Sense of Community With current attrition rates hovering near 50 percent in the first three years of teachers' careers, there is no overstating the importance of creating a support network for new teachers. That's why many of our users rely on Learning applications to not only deliver professional development, but to aid the building of a professional community. Regional and local professional communities employ these tools to exchange ideas. curricula, and best practices and to conduct mentoring. programs to encourage teacher retention and furnish ongoing support. The technology can be used to support broad, open-forum discussions, as well as private teacher-to-mentor or teacher-to-supervisor communication. Also, teachers can now connect at any time with other teachers, peers, and mentors anywhere. This helps to eliminate the traditional sense of isolation that many new teachers feel. Solving Real- World Problems As US educators extend eLearning potential into professional growth, our challenge as a community is to provide ongoing support for these innovations, while learning and sharing more about their effectiveness. Through online professional learning, we can now create state, regional, and local networks to provide today's educators with real support systems that make resources and peer communities readily accessible. To build these networks, we must explore the policy environments that support their creation and capacities-both human and technological-which need to be put in place to allow for such networks to flourish. It is important for our community to build upon initial efforts by the National Staff Development Council and others to define benchmarks for evaluating the effectiveness of online professional learning solutions. At the end of the day, the promise of technology is not to replace wholesale what has worked well in modern professional development. Instead, eLearning has shown its promise to cost-effectively extend opportunities for professional growth and community building. These options are particularly timely now, because in order to leave no child behind, we must also be sure that we leave no teacher behind in the quest to deliver high-quality instruction. States get creative with online professional Development initiatives Louisiana State Department of Education Over the last three years, Louisiana has augmented dozens of statewide professional development initiatives, such as its Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation supported program for superintendents, with supplemental or completely online courses and resources. Alabama Online High School Alabama has begun to put a dent in its teacher shortage by recruiting retired educators to teach courses online — from wherever they are located. Упражнения Southeast Kansas Education Service Center (aka Greenbush) "Virtual Greenbush" has developed and delivered a range of professional development programs to rural teachers across Kansas. Greenbush is expanding these programs as small districts search for cost-effective strategies to deliver customized training. Region 4 Education Service Center, TX As part of its Texas Virtual School initiative, this regional service agency is using Webbased tools to train a statewide pool of e-instructors, provide an online secure interface for professional development courses, prepare counselors and mentors for potential online K-12 students, and to create a support area for TVS instructors. Area Cooperative Educational Services (ACES), CT As part of the statewide BEST program to support and retain new teachers, ACES delivers online professional development opportunities and creates online communities for mentors to interact and exchange best practices with new teachers. Arlington Public Schools, VA The metropolitan district's online solution helps teachers learn Spanish so they can communicate with Spanish speaking families about their children. 5.

Tank killer (Great Britain) The Malkara, a new anti-tank missile developed in Australia, is now being issued to anits of the Royal Armored Corps. The Malkara is a wire-operated missile which, it is claimed, can destroy the heaviest mown tank. It has a two-stage solid propellant rocket motor, weighs 200 lbs and does not •equire a stabilized platform. Several units can be carried in a helicopter and dozens in a :roop carrier aircraft and it can also be launched from fixed sites, tanks, armored cars, or orries, landing craft and even motor-torpedo boats. The weapon may also be fired and controlled by one man who can take shelter away From the launching site and direct the missile to its target by a control box which passes nessages along an electric cable to the Malkara's guidance system to keep it on course. This guidance system cannot be jammed by enemy radio. Текст II. Sub det (USA) Navy scientists are testing a new device for detecting and locating enemy submarines ilmost anywhere in the ocean. This device could be one of the most important developments of the decade for the Navy. A major part of this device is a huge transducer, or sound source. The device is dipped nto the ocean from a ship to produce powerful sound waves. It is hoped that these waves will эе picked up later by hydro-phones placed at distant locations after the waves have bounced Dff enemy vessels which may have entered a vast expanse of sea. Advanced data processing equipment translates the sounds into information the Navy is ifter — the type of objects reflecting the sounds and their locations. The transducer, the largest piece of equipment of this sort ever carried by a ship, now is iboard the tanker CAP - ISTRANO, which has full load displacement of more than 17,000 :ons and is equipped to raise and lower the apparatus in the water and provide power for its Dperation. Текст III. Closed-circuit laser (USA) A new closed-circuit laser that whirls counterrotating beams of light around a ring to measure changes in direction soon may rival the gyroscope as an automatic guidance device for ships, airplanes, missiles, and space vehicles. Called a ring laser by its developers at the Sperry Rand Corporation, the device may make guidance systems simpler, cheaper to produce, more stable, and more sensitive than present navigation systems that rely on the inertial sense of a gyroscope. In operation the laser produces two light beams — both at the same frequency — which vvliirl continuously in opposite directions around a ring. At one corner the two beams are picked off through a partially transparent mirror and fed into a lightsensing device called a photodctector. The present invention relates to a safety mechanism for a gun, more particularly, to a slidable Socking bar which lockingly engages the trigger and is released from locking engagement by the hand of the firer being placed in the firing position, the locking bar being automatically returned to the locking position when the hand of the firer is removed. It is, therefore, the principal object of this invention to provide an improved and simplified safety mechanism for any type of gun which is fired by a trigger. It is another object of this invention to provide a safety mechanism which is unlocked by the firer's hand being placed in the firing position and automatically locks the gun against firing when the hand of the firer is removed from the firing position. It is a further object of this invention to provide a safety mechanism on the under-side of the gun stock and adjacent the trigger guard, but which is not unlocked merely by the weight of the gun when it is carried in the firer's hand. It is an additional object of this invention to provide a safety locking bar which engages the trigger to lock the same against firing and which automatically returns to the locking position after the gun has been fired. Other objects and advantages of this invention will become apparent upon reference to the accompanying description when taken in conjunction with the following drawings wherein: Figure 1 is an overall perspective view of a portion of a single barrel shot-gun which has been equipped with the locking lever of this invention; Figure 2 is a sectional view taken along the line 2—2 of Figure 1, which corresponds substantially with a vertical longitudinal plane extending through the rifle; Figure 3 is a sectional view taken along the line 3—3 of Figure 1; Figure 4 is an overall perspective view of the locking bar of this invention; Figure 5 is a side elevational view of a portion of a single barrel shot-gun which has a modification of this invention; Figure 6 is a side elevational view of a pistol which is equipped with the locking bar of this invention. Returning now to the drawings and more particularly to Figure 1, wherein like reference numerals represent the same parts throughout the various views, 1 indicates a single barrel shot-gun or a similar shoulder weapon having a stock 2 and a pistol grip 3 only a portion of which is shown. An action which may be conventional is installed in the hollowed-out portion of the stock and has a trigger 4 extending downwardly through the under-side of the stock 3. The trigger has a front face 5 which is engaged by the finger of the firer, in order to actuate the trigger, and a rear face 6. A trigger guard 7 encloses the trigger 4 in a conventional manner and is secured to the stock by guard screws 8, only one of which is shown. The structure as described above may be found in any conventional type shoulder weapon. Next, the invention and the manner in which it is installed in such a weapon, will be described. An opening 9 which is rectangular in cross section and adjacent the under-side Тема 17. Виды технического перевола ©ftbe яоек js located in the rear portion of the trigger guard behind the rear face 6 of the trigger. A locking bar 10 which has a cross section corresponding to that of the opening 9 is slidably mounted within this opening. The locking bar has a forward end 11 which is wedge-shaped as indicated at 12, so as to fit between the rear face of the trigger and the under-side of the stock, as illustrated in Figures 1 and 2. The rear end of the locking bar indicated at 13, has a raised portion 14 which is gripped by the fingers of the firer when the hand is placed in a firing position and facilitates the rearward sliding movement of the locking bar. There is an elongated opening 15 which extends transversely through the locking bar 10 and is in a horizontal plane when the gun is held in a normal firing position. A pin 16 passes through the trigger guard and the elongated opening 15 to limit the sliding movement of the locking bar. A magnet 17 is set into the forward end 11 of the locking bar. The advantages of this invention will become apparent from a description of the operation of the locking bar or slide which constitutes the safety mechanism. When the gun 1 is carried in one hand, as is commonly done, the gun is generally supported at a point immediately behind the trigger guard, by the firer's hand, and rests in the curled fingers thereof. The weight of the gun upon the firer's hand when in this position will not move the locking bar since a rearward sliding motion of the bar is necessary in order to unlock the trigger. Consequently this is a true safety mechanism since it will be released only when the gun is held in firing position. When the gun is raised to the firing position, the firer inserts his finger in the trigger guard forwardly of the trigger, and the remainder of the fingers of his hand wrap around the stock behind the trigger guard. In this position the fingers engage the locking bar 10 and the continued wrapping of the fingers about the stock in order to complete the grip of the firer will result in a rearward movement of the locking bar. The rearward movement of the locking bar is of course limited by the length of the elongated slot 15 which is of the order of 1/8 of an inch long. Thus it can be seen that very little movement of the slide is necessary in order to release the trigger. The locking bar will remain in the unlocked position as long as the firer maintains his trigger hand in the firing position upon the gun as described above. After the trigger has been fired the rear face of the trigger Is in engagement with the magnet which is mounted on the forward end of the locking bar. Thus, immediately upon the firer removing his hand from the firing position, the locking bar will be released and will return with the trigger under the action of the magnet to the locking position as illustrated in Figures 1 and 2. The trigger is again locked against movement and will not be unlocked until the gun is again placed in the firing position, as described above. While use of a magnet in the forward end of a locking bar is preferred, since the resulting construction is greatly simplified, a modification is illustrated in Figure 5 which provides an alternative structure for returning the locking bar to the locking position. In Figure 5 a thin leaf spring or shim 18 has one end 19 mounted in the stock 2 and the other end 20 secured in the top surface of the locking bar 10. There is a recess 21 in the underside of the stock surrounding the spring 18 which is shaped to limit the movement of the spring and consequently the sliding action of the locking bar. In operation, the modification of Figure 5 functions in the same manner as the modification illustrated in Figures 1 and 2. The locking bar 10 is unlocked from the trigger by the positioning of the hand of the firer in the firing position and similarly the slide is returned to its locking position, as illustrated in Figure 5 when the hand of the firer is removed from this position. This modification, while just as effective as the use of the magnet in the locking bar, involves alteration of the stock in order to insert the leaf spring. Упражнения 169 As described above, it is apparent that the safety lock of this invention will operate with the magnet alone or with the leaf spring alone. In addition a piece of pliable steel set in the stock at an angle of about 80° will return the locking lever, after firing, to lock the trigger. The invention, as illustrated in Figure 5, may be installed on any type of weapon which is fired by a trigger. As an example reference is made to Figure 6 wherein the locking bar of this invention is mounted upon a pistol indicated at 22. The locking bar here also functions in the same manner as described above, namely, positioning of the hand of the firer on the pistol grip will slide the locking bar downwardly sufficiently to release the same from the trigger. In a like manner the locking bar will return into the locking position, as shown in Figure 6, when the grip of the firing hand about the pistol grip is relaxed. Other weapons to which this invention may be applied are rifles, shot-guns having one and two barrels, machine guns, automatic rifles, carbines and the like. This list is not exhaustive but is merely illustrative of the many types of weapons fired by triggers which may be readily equipped with this invention. The locking action of the locking bar is obtained primarily by a wedging action on the forward end of the locking bar between the rear face of the trigger and the under-side of the stock. Since the forward end of the locking bar is snugly wedged between the trigger and the stock, any force exerted upon the trigger when the locking bar is in the locked position, will not move the trigger to fire the gun since this force will be translated into components which wedge the forward end of the locking bar against the underside of the stock. A sliding movement of the locking bar sufficient to lock the locking bar is possible only by additionally placing the fingers around the stock in a firing position and drawing the locking bar reatwardly by gripping the raised portion of the locking bar. Thus it can be seen that the present invention discloses a safety mechanism for guns which is automatically unlocked by placing the hand of the firer in the firing position and is locked when the hand is not in this position. Except for the opening in the trigger guard behind the trigger, no modification of a gun is necessary in order to install the locking bar upon a weapon. The locking bar itself is extremely simple to manufacture and comprises a piece of metal machined to the shape as illustrated in Figure 4 and equipped with a magnet inset into the forward end of the locking bar. Furthermore, this safety mechanism does not depend upon any complicated system of levers since the locking bar or slide coacts directly with the trigger to lock the trigger against movement. It will be understood that this invention is susceptible to modification in order to adapt it to different usages and conditions and, accordingly, it is desired to comprehend such modifications within this invention as may fall within the scope of the appended claims. I claim: 1. In a safety mechanism for a gun, a gun stock, metallic trigger, a trigger, guard enclosing said trigger, a locking bar slidably carried by said trigger guard and engageable with the rear surface of said trigger to lock the same against movement, the forward end of said locking bar shaped to wedge between the rear of said trigger and the under-side of the gun stock to lock said trigger against movement, and a magnet in the forward end of said locking bar and attracted by said trigger when spaced therefrom to return said locking bar to its locked position between the trigger and the under-side of the gun stock. 2.

Equally as important, at least from our experience, small businesses generate 60 to 80 % of all new net job growth. For these reasons, it is not surprising to conclude that small businesses are the heart of job creation in any free market economy. As the U.S. Ambassador here, it is my responsibility to strengthen the already very strong bilateral relationship between the United States and the Sultanate of Oman. With events like this one, we hope to assist Oman in its promotion of economic and social development by helping to provide some tools that will assist you in achieving your own goals and objectives. Indeed, over the next two days, you will have at your disposal some world-class instructional talent. I'm sure you will take full advantage of their presence. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Kevin Skillen and all those in the Embassy's Commercial, Political and Public Diplomacy sections plus, of course, their colleagues in OCCI without whose collaboration this event would not be possible. Ladies and gentlemen — and I am very happy to say ladies —I would like to wish all of you the very best. Thank you. Remarks of Ambassador Richard L. Baltimore III Opening of Photo Exhibit "After September 11: Images from Ground Zero", The Oman Society for fine Arts February 17, 2003, 7:00 P.M. Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen, thank you for joining us this evening. Much has already been said about September 1 lth. In the immediate aftermath of the attacks, President Bush, speaking from the National Cathedral, pointed out that "adversity introduces us to ourselves. This is true of a nation as well. In this trial, we have been reminded, and the world has seen, that our fellow Americans are generous and kind, resourceful and brave. We see our national character in rescuers working past exhaustion; in long lines of blood donors; in thousands of citizens who have asked to work and serve in any way possible. And we have seen our national character in eloquent acts of sacrifice. Inside the World Trade Center, one man who could have saved himself stayed until the end at the side of his quadriplegic friend. A beloved priest died giving the last rites to a firefighter. Two office workers, finding a disabled stranger, carried her down sixty-eight floors to safety. A group of men drove through the night from Dallas to Washington to bring skin grafts for burn victims". Secretary of State Colin Powell, a fellow New Yorker, has eloquently observed that "Remembrance requires a face. Events that are anonymous are events forgotten. With September 11th, that must never happen. This exhibition will continue to put a face on a tragedy that befell our nation, a tragedy that took so many innocent lives but which at the same time unified us once again. It gave us a sense of purpose and vision as a people, showed the world what Americans were made of, and gave us the opportunity to lead a worldwide coalition to go after not only the perpetrators of these attacks, but to go after terrorists around the world. September I lth was a very personal experience for each of us. Each of us remembers where we were when we first learned of the attacks. Each of us remembers our initial chilling impressions and our response. These images remind me that our country, our people and our families are very precious and that we must do all we can to protect them from the scourge of terrorism". • Ladies and gentlemen, photographer Joel Meyerowitz' persistence gained him unfettered access to Ground Zero. He captured thousands of images; 27 are on display here, one of 22 sets that have shown around the world. By the end of last year, visitors in 135 cities and 64 countries have seen this collection. The events of September 11, revisited in these images, have touched people around the globe-evoking reactions of anger, sorrow, incredulity, fear and mourning. As noted by another fellow New Yorker and now current mayor Michael Bloomberg, "Although we will never forget the tremendous loss that we suffered, New York is a stronger city today than it was a year ago: determined to rebuild and resolved to preserve our precious freedom. Your steadfast friendship is an enduring reminder that the world shares our determination to create a future free of fear". On behalf of the entire Embassy of the United States in Muscat, I again thank you for joining us this evening. The International Forum "Baltic IT&T2004: eBaltics".
