  • An assessment of alternative agricultural policies to reduce nitrogen fertilizer use
    Ecological Economics, 1992
    Co-Authors: Wen Yuan Huang
    Abstract:

    Abstract The costs associated with using different crop rotation patterns designed to reduce the use of nitrogen fertilizer under alternative agricultural policy Options are measured. The policy Options considered include those incorporated in the Food Security Act of 1985, a No Farm Program Option, a Nitrogen Fertilizer Tax Option, a Corn Sales Tax Option, and a Limiting Nitrogen Fertilizer Use Option. To achieve an objective of reducing the nitrogen available for potential leaching into groundwater, crop rotation patterns associated with limiting nitrogen fertilizer use appear to have the lowest cost to the farmer, while a corn sales tax has the highest cost. The costs are computed based on data from the Iowa State University experiment farm at Kanawha, Iowa.

  • Attracting, Preparing, and Keeping Great Urban Teachers: The Urban Teacher Education Program, Option II.
    Urban Education, 2000
    Co-Authors: Kenneth J. Schoon, Pamela A. Sandoval
    Abstract:

    This article describes a graduate, 19-month alternative certification Program for urban middle-and high-school teachers that leads to teacher certification. With additional course work, it can also lead to a master’s degree in secondary education. In an ongoing evaluation of the Program based on the needs of participating urban school districts, Program faculty members have continued to reflect upon and revise the content and sequencing of course work and fieldwork. Interviews and focus groups have shown that students, their mentors, principals, other administrators, and university faculty believe the Program has been successful in producing new teachers for the urban districts.
