Ancient Coins for Education - Home

http://prweb.com/releases/2007/3/prweb510891.htm
Zee Ann Poerio, an elementary school teacher at St. Louise de Marillac school in Pittsburgh, frequently uses genuine ancient coins to capture the imagination and inspire the interest of her students. The thrill of holding an authentic contemporary coin brings history lessons alive. Poerio, who recently was awarded a $2,500 technology grant from Best Buy, Inc. for her innovative use of ancient coins in the classroom, sees them not only as a tangible link to the past, but as the perfect tool for cross curricular connections between History, Literature, Art, etc. "I've been telling my students to Beware the Ides of March for several days. They don't know that I am plotting a hands on history lesson with ancient coins!"
Teacher Jo Green at Westlake High School in Austin, Texas will also take advantage of coins in the classroom on March 15th. She is one of hundreds of teachers across the nation who use educational materials generated by the volunteer collector organization Ancient Coins for Education (http://www.ancientcoinsforeducation.org). In addition to assistance with lesson plans, this non-profit group provides genuine coins and other program enhancements to participating schools. -

www.smart-kit.com -- Smart-kit.com, a leading website dedicated to providing studying techniques, is hosting a contest to create a compilation of study tips from its readers and help others learn how to study smarter, not harder.
"Almost all students have been forced to pull an all-nighter," said Dr. R.L. Kaplan, Board Certified Neurologist and author of Smart-kit.com. "But few realize the negative effects sleep deprivation can have on brain function the following day, decreasing the likelihood of performing well on tests."
According to the journal, Occupational & Environmental Medicine, after 19+ hours without sleep, performance on cognitive tests reached levels equivalent to those associated with a BAC (blood alcohol concentration) of 0.1 percent. In the majority of states, a BAC of 0.08 percent is grounds for a DUI. This means that students pulling an all-nighter don't have enough brain function to legally drive a car.
"It is important that students learn more effective and healthy study habits," said Kaplan. "That is the goal of this contest, to educate students on a variety of ways to increase information learned while decreasing study time."
The contest, which begins on February 22nd, allows visitors to submit their favorite study techniques with a chance to win 1 of 2 prizes donated by Hearthmath Company. The prizes include a/an:
1. emWave Machine
2. TestEdge Interactive Learning Program -
