No matter what the abilities of a child might be, the goals of parenting are essentially the same. Whatever distinct demands result from a child's gifted ability can readily be met by parents if they are familiar with the characteristics of gifted individuals, informed about the unique needs of the gifted child, and persistent in assuring that appropriate provisions are in place within the school system that will meet their child's special needs.

Anticipating Trophic Change Aquatic Nuisance Species Coastal Community Development Great Lakes Wetlands ... Great Lakes Education Great Lakes Education Disappointingly few residents of the "Great Lakes State" have an adequate understanding of our Great Lakes resources. Citizens need the knowledge and skills necessary to fulfill their roles as stewards of the Great Lakes, leading to an environmentally sound and economically prosperous future. The challenge is to develop a scientifically and environmentally informed citizenry, from the young child to the older citizen, and to do so in a way that includes traditionally under-represented segments of American society. Education is a part of Michigan Sea Grant's mandate and is consistent with the objectives of its parent agencies. The U.S. Department of Commerce includes "achievement of environmental stewardship" as a prime goal in its mission statement. NOAA's mission goes even further, to "become the premier source for atmospheric and oceanic science education." The National Sea Grant Strategic Plan challenges state programs to become recognized as primary providers of marine and aquatic education. Michigan Sea Grant is an award-winning leader in the areas of student and teacher education and youth and adult leadership development. Michigan Sea Grant has the opportunity to enhance its successful educational programs via the development and operation of a Great Lakes Education Center and replication of MSG's ship-based education program.

Search this site powered by FreeFind Alcohol and Other Drug Prevention: The Parent Connection Two of the biggest concerns parents have when they send their sons and daughters to college are whether they will be safe, and whether they will do well academically. Both of those concerns are legitimate, and both are closely related to alcohol and other drugs, whether used by the student or by their fellow students. So parents deserve to know what schools are doing to curb alcohol and other drug use, and college administrators must be prepared to answer tough questions about their alcohol and other drug prevention policies and programs.
