      Arkansas High School Celebrates National School Choice Week
      posted by: Ruthie | January 30, 2014, 10:04 PM   

      AAE’s Arkansas state chapter, The Arkansas State Teachers Association (ASTA), recently celebrated National School Choice Week with an event at New Technology High School in Rogers. Due to New Tech’s unique curriculum and approach to education, it served as the perfect forum to showcase choice options for students and teachers.


      Unlike other Arkansas schools, New Tech’s bases their instructional model on projects and problems solving. Making instruction more content driven instead of skill-based is a top priority.   New Tech builds lessons on real-life and work situations, teaching students to mirror the collaboration and teamwork frequently encountered in real-life jobs. Using cutting edge software, students implement technology in all aspects of learning.

      Several teachers at the public charter school come from a non-traditional licensure program and bring valuable experience to New Tech. Other teachers have been immersed in education for years and are able to bring knowledge from traditional public schools.

      “New Tech is inspirational,” said ASTA Regional Director Ronnie Flowers. “This type of school setting provides teachers with unique opportunities and allows students to experience real-life situations.”

      AAE celebrates setting like New Tech. This alternative classroom environment clearly works for students and teachers.

      School Choice
      written by Valerie_AR, February 04, 2014

      Giving parents and students to decide for themselves where they want to go to school will allow for better engagement from the entire family. This engagement will then lead to better grades, and a better sense of accomplishment from students who are able to attend the school they wish. It may be a bit more complicated, but it is definitely worth it.

       

      National Week of Online Casinos

      When it comes to online casinos in customer service, silence is definitely not a golden. Players want their questions answered immediately and if there is a problem with the game it is imperative that that be fixed immediately as well. Anytime there is real money at stake, players want and deserve to be able to speak to someone and not have to wait for an e-mail to be answered. Many online casinos realize this and they do go out of their way to ensure that players will be taking care of immediately if there's ever a situation. I was wonderful and some of the software is, and there is always going to be little situations that arise here and there. The sooner they are taking care of the more apt that players will be to return.

      There are so many opportunities in our everyday lives where we can interact with the Internet in one way or another, especially now that online gambling is legalized. When it comes to online casinos, there are many more opportunities for us to take part in some games that we absolutely love. Choosing the game we want to play is all a matter of how involved we really want to be. The online casino world offers games of any level of interaction. The choices really yours as to how much you want to take part.
