The Armory Center for the Arts Pasadena, CA Deadline: July, 2008 Fellows will participate in a nine-month training and teaching experience at the Armory Center for the Arts. This will include the development of innovative touring and teaching techniques within the context of a contemporary art exhibition space. The program combines teaching in a community art center with learning interactive education techniques, the relationship of exhibition content with studio practice, as they experience a broad range of participants (children ages 5 through 17). The Fellows will participate in a series of workshops throughout the first three months, which emphasize interactive methods and idea-based teaching processes. Fellows will receive one-on-one guidance by experienced artists who have taught in several of the programs at the Armory.
Building Excellent Schools Fellowship Deadline: Rolling, apply now http://www.buildingexcellentschools.org/sp.cfm?pageid=1022 The Building Excellent Schools Fellowship is a rigorous, year-long training program in general charter school management, which in some ways places it in parallel with programs offered at graduate schools of business and education. However, instead of its participants being students that come to the program with myriad interests that they pay the university to help develop and refine, Building Excellent Schools Fellows are carefully selected leaders-in-training that come already focused on one goal, founding and operating a great school, and instead of paying BES for its training, recipients are paid by BES a generous professional stipend of $80,000 for their year’s work in the program. Our Fellows represent a vast range of professional experience including education, business, law, and public administration. Classroom experience is not a pre-requisite for participation in the program. Ultimately, Building Excellent Schools is looking for high-capacity individuals that are deeply committed to fundamentally changing urban education. The culmination of the Fellowship year is the submission of a well-written, thoroughly researched charter application that reflects the best practices in urban school design. Ultimately this application will not be the reflection of a solely individual effort. Indeed, a successful Fellow will have built a Founding Board of 7-11 equally committed people from a variety of backgrounds that fully support and believe in the proposal and pledge to receive the charter and usher the school through its first years. The Fellow will also have made real community connections in the place in which he or she intends to found their school, ensuring that their effort is seen as integral to the community’s future. The school’s status as free-standing, locally controlled, and independent only affirms these connections.
