Rethinking innovation schools : strengths and limitations of autonomy-based school improvement plans in contexts of widening racial inequality
School districts around the country have launched new reform strategies that are designed to expand autonomy for public schools, often called "Innovation Schools." Pursuant to these state- and local-level plans to create more autonomous schools, school leaders are granted greater amounts of authority over school operations such as curriculum, budgeting, and hiring, while districts continue to manage services related to teacher payroll and benefits., Terrenda White and Anna Noble., "October 2020.", Includes bibliographical references, (pages 25-29)., Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed August 2022)

SNOTEL sensor upgrade has caused temperature record inhomogeneities for the Intermountain West : implications for climate change impact assessments
The motivation for this briefing is to examine the large inhomogeneity (step shift) in the observed temperature record at the SNOw TELemetry (SNOTEL) stations in the Intermountain West--Colorado, Utah and Wyoming--and its implications for climate, hydrology and ecological research in the region. This issue impacts the entire SNOTEL network across the 11 Western states., Imtiaz Rangwala [and three others], Bibliography pages 8-9., Online resource; title from PDF caption (viewed Mary 2020)

Safe at school : addressing the school environment and LGBT safety through policy and legislation
Safe at school : addressing the school environment and LGBT safety through policy and legislation
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) students face a unique set of safety concerns each day. Over 85% report being harassed because of their sexual or gender identity, and over 20% report being physically attacked. Far too often teachers and administrators do nothing in response. In part because of this, the suicide rate for LGBT students continues to be 3-4 times higher than that of their straight counterparts, and in some parts of the country LGBT runaways may comprise up to 40% of the entire teen homeless population. This brief describes those issues, presents concrete policy recommendations, and then offers model statutory code language to implement many of those recommendations., by Stuart Biegel & Sheila James Kuehl., "October 2010.", " ... funded in part by the Great Lakes Center for Education Research and Practice"--Title page verso., Includes bibliographical references (pages 37-49)., Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed July 2022)
