ARKANSAS K-12 SCHOOLS DID YOU KNOW the following Arkansas K12 school facts? Arkansas has nearly 500,000 K-12 students, 250+ school districts, 82+ million square feet of building space, http://comp.uark.edu/~dnutter/k12schools.html
Extractions: As utility costs for Arkansas school buildings increase, school districts look for ways to improve operations and reduce costs. The greatest opportunity lies with existing school buildings. As noted above, over half of Arkansas' K-12 school buildings were constructed before 1980 (25+ years ago). Potential savings ranging from 5% to 30%. Improving the energy efficiency of existing school buildings , resulting in reduced utility costs, can be achieved by, first, better understanding the each school's energy consumption. This can be done by understanding your utility rates, benchmarking, followed by tracking or trending usage over time, and finally making appropriate changes in building energy systems, operation, and maintenance. Below is information on these two subjects:
Arkansas Policy Foundation A Position Paper Prepared by the Murphy Commission Education Workgroup Arkansas' Public Schools A Thirty Year $20 Billion Taxpayer Investment Yields http://www.arkansaspolicyfoundation.org/policy/30yrinvestreport.html
Extractions: • 87% of Arkansas' 8th graders are not proficient in math (NAEP). • 87% of 11th graders failed the math section of the state's exit exam (ACTAP). • 80% of Arkansas' 4th graders are not proficient in reading (NAEP) Arkansas' average ACT college entrance score (20.2) remains consistently below the national average (20.9). • Arkansas' college remediation rate for entering students is 59.2%. 48% of these students entered college in the year after high school, the others are older students. After three decades of rising education spending and dramatic personnel growth in the system, Arkansas' academic achievement is well below national averages and lags most of the world's industrialized countries. The current public school establishment is responsible for this performance and must be held accountable and urged to improve. Arkansans are beginning to raise the central issue underlying effective education reform.

The Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA): Connecting Assessment to Instruction and Learning Foreign Language Annals, 39 This article reports on "Beyond the OPI: Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA) Design Project," a three-year (1997-2000) research initiative sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education International Research and Studies Program. The primary goal of the project was to develop an integrated skills assessment prototype that would measure students' progress towards the Standards for Foreign Language Learning in the 21st Century (National Standards, 1999, 2006). A second goal of the project was to use the assessment prototype as a catalyst for curricular and pedagogical reform. This paper presents the Integrated Performance Assessment (IPA) prototype, illustrates a sample IPA, and discusses how classroom-based research on the IPA demonstrated the washback effect of integrated performance-based assessment on teachers' perceptions regarding their instructional practices.
