NJADE/NJALL Conference (April 7-8, 2011)
(Click on the green title above to go to the NJALL website for the conference program.)
This year's NJALL/NJADE Conference on April 7-8 at The Foundation for Educational Administration Conference Center at 12 Centre Drive
Monroe Township, NJ 08831. Directions at http://www.featraining.org/directions.aspx.
Each day has a different focus, with the NJADE presentations on Friday. As we have for the past two years, NJADE will offer four presentation slots, two fifty-minute periods in the morning, and two seventy-minute periods in the afternoon. There will also be an NJADE meeting for all present at lunchtime Friday. We are still in need of a President Elect, so please consider volunteering.
Please remember that, in order to remain in good standing with NADE, NJADE must have a yearly conference as well as a general membership meeting, and, with NJALL graciously allowing us to co-conference, both of these needs are met. Please consider attending one or both days of the conference, especially the 2nd day when NJADE members will present, depending on your availability and/or interests.
Last, but not least, the best news of all for us in these economic times is the fact that the conference fees this year have been reduced to $75.00 per day, and $125.00 for both days.
We look forward to seeing you there in April!
Sharon D’Agastino, President
Jay Peterson, Secretary
Nessie Hill, Treasurer
Gwendolyn Kane, Past President

Global Skills for College Completion
From February 16th-February 19th, developmental education faculty from across the country will converge online to discuss specific pedagogic issues relating to developmental education as part of Global Skills for College Completion (GSCC). The intention of the Jam is to engage hundreds of faculty in learning about, experiencing, and contributing to a new approach to developmental education pedagogy.
There is no cost to register.
What is a Jam? A jam is an online exchange, and like jamming in music, it is about riffing on themes. A group of people 'speak' together using written posts about a subject of importance to them, and the discussion is actively facilitated to deepen the exchange. One of the advantages of the Jam is that it is asynchronous, so that participants can come and go as their schedules permit--reading and commenting when they can.
The Jam Agenda: The Jam will take place from February 16, 3:00 pm EST to February 19, 3:00 pm EST, and each day there will be several discussion threads. Each thread will be launched by a GSCC faculty member and will focus on an element of the emerging GSCC developmental education pedagogy. The conversation becomes interesting as participants 'riff' on the topic, adding their own comments, questions and experiences.

Letter from NCDE (May 27, 2009)
Dear Developmental Education Colleagues,Are you seeking a research and publishing tool to support your campus’s developmental educational programs? Research in Developmental Education (RiDE), published by the National Center for Developmental Education four issues per volume in a single article newsletter format, is an effective tool providing supportive evidence for your programs. Sample articles can be found at www.ncde.appstate.edu/ride/htm.Volume 22, Issue 3, entitled “Developmental Education: A Study of Print News Reporting” by Hunter R. Boylan, Connie Carringer, D. Patrick Saxon, and Cate Shiles was also a topic for presentation at the 2009 NADE conference. This article provides information on how developmental education is viewed by the mainstream press. RiDE is available at the low cost of $15.00 per year; 2-year subscriptions are $28.00. Order forms may be found online at www.ncde.appstate.edu/order/htm.
If you are not a current NADE member, why not order the Journal of Developmental Education (JDE), $34.00 per year, $60.00 for two years, at the same time? The Journal of Developmental Education is a double-blind, peer reviewed scholarly publication featuring articles that relate implications for practice from current research and regular features. Please note NADE members receive the JDE three times a year as a member benefit. We value your support and look forward to providing you with the most current research in the field of developmental education. If you are conducting program or scholarly research and would like to submit an article to either RiDE or Journal of Developmental Education, please refer to Author’s Guidelines on their respective pages at http://www.ncde.appstate.edu/.
Sincerely,Patrick Saxon, Editor, Research in Developmental EducationNational Center for Developmental Education
