Reconstructing Dropout & the Culture of Education
[ send me this paper ]
The transformation of the American education system over the past 3 decades has resulted in the emergence of differing views on how to address the inherent problems in providing standard education for a varied population. Restructuring has focused on the problems in education that have stemmed from what many have perceived as ineffectual teaching and educational design or curricula problems. But a number of recent theorists have posited that there is a greater link between internal factors, including cultural components, and problems that result in poor student outcomes, and that these need to be addressed in improving education. This 6 page paper provides an analytical overview of the major points presented by G.J. Sefa Dei and J. Bruner in their works Reconstructing Dropout (Sefa Dei) and The Culture of Education (Bruner), and relates these premises to educational restructuring. No additional sources cited.

Computers and Young People with HIV
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the uses, applications, and problems associated with HIV-infected youth and computer technology. While a number of valuable interactive and multimedia education programs have been developed for children, teens, and young adults, there are few programs designed for monitoring and assessment. As recognition has grown that such differences not only exist but are of vital importance in providing optimum care of HIV-infected young people, both the public health and medical technology communities have begun to expand their efforts in developing youth specific-programs and tools.
