SCHAEFER TO GIVE LECTURE AT SUNYA

The third in a series of free public lectures sponsored by the
Atmospheric Sciences Research Center, State University of New York
at Albany, and the New York State Department of Environmental
Conservation, is scheduled for Tuesday evening, Apr. 10, when
Vincent J. Schaefer, director of ASRC, will be the guest speaker.

The lecture will take place in Lecture Center 18, beginning at 8 p.m.

Dr. Schaefer's subject will be ''What Is Its?", illustrated with
the use of more than 100 slides of common natural objects but un-
common views of them. A few, very unusual objects will be included.
As each slide of strange, bizarre, and beautiful thingsis shown, the
audience will be given two or three seconds to decide what is depicted.
After that the speaker will describe the subject photographed, The
presentation is described as a challenge to the perception of the viewer.

Dr. Schaefer is known internationally for his work in the field of
cloud physics and weather modification since his important discovery
while with the General Electric Research Laboratory that dry ice could
be used to modify clouds to produce precipitation. In recent years he
has been concerned with atmospheric aerosols and air pollution and
has been a leader in helping to make the public aware of the air

pollution problem,

Just prior to the beginning of the lecture Raymond Falconer, of
ASRC, will give an illustrated weather briefing.

SUNYA PROFESSOR ASSESSES NEW LOOK IN TEACHER PREPARATION

The latest scheme in teacher preparation may appear great, but a host of
practical problems have to be ovércome if the plan is to succeed.

That's the gist of an article by John A. Ether of State University of New
York at Albany which appears in the current issue of PBTE Newsletter, a
teacher education publication.

In his article Dr. Ether, director of Teacher Corps activities at SUNYA's
School of Education, discusses the problems involved in the latest proposal
to upgrade the preparation of teachers. Known as Performance Based Teacher
Education (PBTE), the approach would have teachers licensed not on the basis
of college courses they have taken but on performance and accomplishment
in the classroom. An internship is a vital part of the program.

The State University educator tells how the SUNYA School of Education is
compiling a body of guide information by cataloging the various problems that
must be faced by teacher preparation institutions which plan to use the new
PBTE method.

Based on interviews with teacher interns, university personnel, team leaders,
school district personnel, and community people, author Ether has pin-pointed
21 problems. Each involves what Dr, Ether terms "Start-up Problems" -- those
related to instituting a PBTE training program.

In one of them Dr. Ether indicates that the colleges in question will need to

change a number of their procedures -- grades, timing and scheduling of classes,

faéulty assignments, and'so on. Related to this is the need to bring together
four concerned groups: the teacher preparatory institution, the cooperating
local school system where the intetaa work, the local teachers bargaining
unit, and the State Department of Education,

Author Ether reports that many operational points must be settled, too,
such as the extra work involved when a regular teacher monitors the work of
the trainee and the extent to which they should be paid for the monitoring service.

Another problem réviewed by Professor Ether has to do with the inade-
quancies of PBTE developers and writers. States the Albany professor: ''An
extensive training or retraining effort, designed for colleges and for local
educational agency personnel, is needed. Securing people to do this training,
providing funding, and getting people to agree to be trained, are massive
problems."

nology for his book, ''The Scenography of Josef Svoboda", The

American theatre public to understand and appreciate the artistry
of a true genius of scenic design and technology of our times.

Dr. Burian's understanding of the man and his ability to explain
Svoboda's creative process makes this an outstanding contribution
to our discipline. Continues the tribute, "Dr. Burian's unique
ability has been further demonstrated by his assistance during
the 1972 USITT-sponsored tour of lecture and master classes by
Josef Svoboda. Truly, Dr. Burian has translated Josef Svoboda
for America",

The SUNYA faculty member is a noted authority on eastern
European theatre in general as well as on Svoboda. He is the
author of a number of publications, among which is the recent

which has spent ten years of research in working out materials
suited to the needs of elementary school children. The writings
stress creativity but not at the expense of knowledge of arithmetic
fundamentals.

the so-called "new" mathematics. All interested teachers are

SUNYA GRADUATE STUDENTS REPORT EXPERIMENTS AT NATIONAL

MEETING

At recent national meetings of the Biophysical Society in
Columbus, O., three graduate students in biology under the super-
vision of Robert D. Allen, professor of biology at State University
of New York at Albany, reported successful experiments on the
isolation of naked cytoplasm from amoebae.

Douglass L. Taylor, John Condeelis, and Patrick Moore had
succeeded in controlling the physical state and motility of amoeba
cytoplasm in chemically defined media and they were able to
demonstrate contraction, relaxation, and a state analogous to rigor
in muscle. They also had designed a chemical medium in which
the naked cytoplasm would not only stream actively and form
pseudopodia, but even undergo limited locomotion.

A decade ago Dr. Allen proposed the frontal contraction theory
of amoeboid movement. The SUNYA graduate students succeeded
in demonstrating the presence of the contractile protein myosin in
the same form that it appears in vertebrate striated muscle, and
the result has demonstrated the long-suspected similarity in the
mechanisms of muscle contraction and amoeboid movement and
provided confirmation of Dr. Allen's theory.

EDUCATION DEANS MEET AT SUNYA; PREVIEW NEW TEACHER TRAINING

The New York State Council of Deans of Education previewed
1973-1980 plans for licensing teachers during its semi-annual meeting
held at State University of New York at Albany, Taking part were
deans of schools of education at the universities of Syracuse, Rochester
and Buffalo, New York University, Fordham and Hofstra universities,
City University of New York, and SUNYA.

Randolph S. Gardner, dean of SUNYA's School of Education,
said the group focused attention on the Regents' Master Plan for
Teacher Education, particularly as it will involve competency-based
teacher education.

"The approach, through CBTE, is a proposal to license teachers,
not on the college courses they have taken, but on their performance
in the classroom," Dean Gardner reported. He said the plan calls
for internships in local school districts where the future teachers
will be "totally immersed in an extensive program of working on
the job with full-time licensed teachers and classes."

Observed Dr. Gardner: ''Although we at SUNYA and at other
schools of education throughout the state have worked closely with
neighboring school districts for a number of years, the CBTE
approach will open up new avenues of further cooperation. For
example, we hope to enlist the thinking and the cooperation of area

school districts and their professional staffs in reviewing and

quadrangle boards have gotten together to provide booths, Among
other events, which are open to the public, there will be a bus-
stuffing contest, a water balloon toss, body painting, and a "slave"
auction. Those attending will be able to buy a kiss, cotton candy,
ice cream, and a computer picture printout. Providing the all-
important background music will be Mike & Ike & Charlie Taps
DiMura, a local banjo band.
The student who will benefit from State Fair is selected by
a faculty-student committee and will receive a scholarship to
cover room, board, tuition, books and expenses. Last year the
annual event raised more than $1, 300 for the fund. This year
co-chairwomen Linda Weinstock and Donna Martellotto hope to
top that figure.
