Alternative Learning Environments in Arkansas
One intervention that has been shown to be successful in helping students who have not done well in traditional school settings is alternative learning environments (ALE), or alternative schools (Lehr, Lanners, & Lange, 2003). The U.S. Department of Education (2002) defines an alternative school as “a public elementary/secondary school that addresses the needs of students that typically cannot be met in a regular school, provides nontraditional education, serves as an adjunct to a regular school, or falls outside the categories for regular, special education or vocational education.
ein Projekt zur forschungsorientierten VerknĂĽpfung von Theorie und Praxis in der MINT-Lehrerbildung
Als Partner des durch die Deutsche Telekom Stiftung geförderten Projekts
„Schülerlabore als Lehr-Lern-Labore: Forschungsorientierte Verknüpfung von
Theorie und Praxis in der MINT-Lehrerbildung” wird an der Freien Universität
Berlin derzeit die Ăśberarbeitung und Weiterent-wicklung vorhandener sowie die
Implementierung neuer Formate im Lehr-Lern-Labor (LLL) for-ciert. Diese sind
in Praxisseminare eingebettet und verfolgen folgende Zielstellungen: 1\. Die
Entwicklung von Professionswissen und dessen Umsetzung bei Planung,
DurchfĂĽhrung und Evaluation von Unterricht (Handlungskompetenz). 2\. Die
Förderung von Reflexionskompetenz. 3\. Die Förderung professioneller
Unterrichtswahrnehmung. In diesem Beitrag wird eine theoretische Einbettung
der verfolgten Ziele in Bezug auf das Lehr-veranstaltungskonzept vorgenommen.
DarĂĽber hinaus werden Inhalt und Ablauf des LLL-Seminars vorgestellt

Praxisbezug und Professionalisierung im Lehr-Lern-Labor-Seminar (LLLS) - ausgewählte vorläufige Ergebnisse zur professionsbezogenen Wirksamkeit
Die Ausprägung professioneller Handlungskompetenz ist insbesondere in an der Praxis orientierten Lehr-Lehr-Situationen möglich. An der Freien Universität Berlin haben Studierende des Lehramts Physik die Möglichkeit im Lehr-Lern-Labor-Seminar (LLLS) berufsnahe Praxiserfahrungen zu sammeln. Die Begleitforschung fokussiert in erster Linie auf Aspekte der Professionalisierung der Teilnehmer*innen. In einer Mixed Model Studie wurden leitfadengestützte Interviews durchgeführt und inhaltsanalytisch ausgewertet (u.a. Wahlmotive, Kompetenzeinschätzung, Reflektiertheit, SWE). Darüber hinaus wurden eine Fragebogenstudie im Pre-Post-Design (u.a. PCK, SWE, Unterrichtskompetenzen) und eine Fremdeinschätzungserhebung zur Unterrichtsqualität durchgeführt. Entgegen der angenommenen Erwartung eines „Praxisschocks“ aufgrund der Konfrontation mit Unterrichtsrealität scheint der „geschützte Rahmen“ des LLLS sogar zu einer Zunahme der SWE der Teilnehmer*innen zu führen. Positive Ergebnisse konnten auch bezüglich des PCK in Bezug auf die Veranstaltungsinhalte festgestellt werden

Review of \u3ci\u3eCommunity and Frontier: A Ukrainian Settlement in theCanadian Parkland\u3c/i\u3e by John C. Lehr
At first glance this slender volume appears to be nothing more than a study of one small and seemingly insignificant Ukrainian Canadian settlement located in the harsh bush country of southeastern Manitoba. Appearances can be deceiving. While Community and Frontier is most assuredly a case study, it is a brilliant little work-a true gem-that sparkles with intellectual vitality as it broadens our understanding of the entire Ukrainian Canadian experience, particularly in the pioneer phase
Systemically Screwing Dads: Out of Control Paternity Schemes
In 1983 in Lehr v. Robertson, the U.S. Supreme Court recognized that paternity opportunity interests for biological fathers in children born to unwed mothers usually implicate federal constitutional life, liberty or property interests and thus warrant guarantees of fair procedures in adoptions. In 1989 in Michael H. v. Gerald D., the court reiterated that for any such father, there is the unique opportunity to develop a relationship with his offspring, though a similar paternity opportunity may be unavailable where the child is born to a mother married to another. Under Lehr and Michael H., when paternity schemes systematically and unfairly interfere with men who wish, or might wish, to pursue paternity opportunities, these schemes should fail. The Lehr court specifically recognized that governmental systems that likely omit many responsible fathers for reasons beyond their control can be procedurally inadequate. Unfortunately, many contemporary American paternity schemes are now out of control. They frequently omit many responsible fathers who have little or no control over the unique opportunity to develop a parent-child relationship. As well, often these omissions undercut rather than promote the general policies underlying paternity laws, including dual parenthood and equality. In particular, current state birth certificate, safe haven and adoption schemes are flawed under U.S. Supreme Court precedents like Parratt v. Taylor in 1981 and Monell v. Department of Social Services in 1978. Flawed paternity schemes can be easily fixed. Suggested reforms are presented after a brief review of control and the unique paternity opportunity interest under Lehr; the general requirements for procedurally adequate paternity regimes; the policies guiding contemporary American paternity laws; and, the deficiencies in current American birth certificate, safe haven and adoption schemes
Tactical Air Power in Normandy: Some Thoughts on the Interdiction Plan
The Allied campaign in North-West Europe in 1944–45 ended with the capitulation of the German Army and must, therefore, be considered an eminently successful operation. In its initial phase, that is the assault on Normandy and the securing of a defensible lodgement area, it was undoubtedly one of the most dangerous and complicated operations of the war. Nevertheless it ended as the victory which marked the beginning of the end of the Third Reich. Like many other campaigns, however, it did not go exactly as planned and many have claimed that the Allied Armies were neither properly trained nor adequately led and that, therefore, some other element ensured the victory. The overwhelming power of the Allied air force and its effects on the operations of the German Army has been the favourite theme of both historians and German generals. This powerful combination has long dominated the assessment of the campaign. It is not the purpose of this essay to minimize the importance of Allied air operations, in particular the attacks on the German communication system. Rather, it is an attempt to examine in some detail the actual results of that operation in order to obtain a clearer understanding of its place among the many other ingredients which combined to defeat the German Army in Normandy
