Educators often feel frustrated by their school's lack of comprehensive programs to address the needs of diverse learners. Many noted literacy experts believe that school programs for diverse learners will remain ineffectual until instruction involves teachers, specialists, administrators, and families in collaborative decision making, mediation, negotiation, and respect for differences. Collaboration for Diverse Learners brings together several expert perspectives on achieving effective collaboration to accelerate the literacy development of diverse learners. You will find in this important volume many resources to guide your own decision making and development of successful collaboration programs: in-depth analyses of collaborative efforts, multiple ways to think about collaboration and its implementation, and examples of collaborative projects that are successfully in place in schools throughout the United States. You'll be especially inspired by the first-hand stories of educators, children, and families who present the possibilities for partnerships that advance the learning of all students.

The on-time delivery of goods is regarded as a primary factor of the urban economy and is being monitored by businesses and government alike. However, much analysis of freight transportation and the flow of goods into, out of and within urban areas focuses on functional, business-related approaches. This book examines the interrelationship between logistics development on one hand and urban development and geographical issues, such as land use and location, on the other. Avoiding certain one-dimensional views on 'logistics impacts on the city', it discloses the complex interaction of the logistics system with the entire urban environment. It also bridges the gap between recent geographical research into new production systems and (post)modern consumption patterns. Illustrated with case studies from the United States, Germany, France, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom, it examines issues such as: the historical nexus between urban areas and logistics; current urban developments with regards to goods distribution; city-region related characteristics of freight flows; locational dynamics; and specific freight related urban problems and conflicts.

The report describes the development and implementation of an analysis of the mutual aerodynamic interference of the wing and the proprotor on a folding proprotor aircraft. The analysis was developed to complement and expand the capabilities of an existing AFFDL stability and control prediction method for helicopters and stoppable rotor aircraft. The wing-rotor interference section was added to the AFFDL program as an option to the user. This report is divided into four parts. The first part describes the formulation of a math model and its capabilities. The flight mode response of a typical folding proprotor aircraft during rotor feathering is discussed. The second part explains usage of a computer program implementing the math mode. Sample cases are presented as well as a description of the input and output formats. The third part contains a cross reference index of FORTRAN variables and subroutine names. The fourth part is a complete FORTRAN listing of the AFFDL program modified to include the interference subroutine.
