Topic: FYI Teachers
Printer-Friendly Page
This is a listing of references (referrals) I've made to teachers of indigenous and minority students in science, math, engineering. It acts as an archive. I send out E-mails to people who request it, either of stuff I think may be useful or of items I run across or research that my listees request. Please contact me through the link at the bottom of the page.
 
There are three other mailists which have been consistently useful.

This was on NPR radio Sunday AM but Millard
Fillmore's Bathtub may have more info specific to Mr Schempp.

I had never heard of this Sup Ct case before, but
an important one (and in 1956!!)

"Education
Discovering the Man Behind a Boy's Protest

Listen to this story...

Weekend Edition Sunday, September 2, 2007 &#B7; In
1956, 16-year-old Pennsylvania schoolboy Ellery
Schempp decided to protest his public school's
mandatory prayer and Bible-reading period by
reading silently from the Koran. He was ejected
from class and then sued the school district.

The case eventually went to the Supreme Court,
setting a precedent that banned school-sponsored
prayer, a decision that remains controversial to this day.

Host Liane Hansen speaks with Stephen Solomon,
author of the book Ellery's Protest a and to Ellery Schempp himself." http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=14124191
