Smock doesn’t always tTavel
with her husband because of the
children, but said she made a spe
cial trip to Athens. When asked
about how they get enough money
to make the trips, she said her hus
band must travel on his own
money.
“He’s not a Jimmy Swaggart,”
she said.
Swaggart or not, students feel
his words are meant to anger and
inflame them.
“He’s just doing this to inflame
people,” John Jordan, a senior
speech communications major
said.
Mark Adkins, a sophomore polit
ical science nugor, said he feels Jed
and others try to rile students to
the point of anger.
“He wants someone to get mad
and hit him for a response,” he
said.
Others resent the fact that Jed is
taking the subject of religion to
such extremes.
“He’s turning the word of the
Bible to fit what he thinks and
that’s not right,” said Robyn Ham
ilton, a freshman management sci
ences miyor.
Lawson Sullivan, co-director of
the Athens Gay and Lesbian Asso
ciation, was the victim of Jed’s ve
hemence about sexual perversion.
Sullivan said she challenged
Jed’s thoughts on perversion and
told him that she was a lesbian.
Jed then screamed, “God made
Adam and Eve, not Adam and
Steve.” Sullivan said Jed told her
and a friend that being a lesbian is
shameful.
Several males cheered Jed on
when he was attacking her, she
said.

right.

Shropshire said that all the con
troversy over the brochure, which
was mainly to present facts he felt
were relevant to the voters, made it
more effective.
Mirsky pointed out that the bro
chure was mailed after the dead
line to get advertisements in local
media, so that O’Looney was left
without a means for rebuttal.
Local and state officials have
said the brochure violates several
election laws, but it isn’t clear
whether any action will be taken
by the State Ethics Commission.
Ted Lee, executive secretary of
the commission, said Thursday
that no complaints had been filed,
but it wouldn’t surprise him if they
were.
MAP-ping a course to better math
division, but it’s actually an entirely different
model of teaching mathemetics from what most of
By LESUE PHILUPS

“Mathemagenic” may sound like death by long
dinei
eaching mathemetics from wha
us know.
The University chose the mathemagenic model
for its program, “Follow Through,” one of 14 feder
ally funded experimental programs in the United
States.
The programs begun as a part of former Presi
dent Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society program. In
the last month, Congress authorized Follow
Through for a four-year extension.
“Mathemagenic was a gimmick word used to de
scribe the model,” said Horace Hawn, director of
the program. “Mathema” means knowledge and
“genic” means the origin of knowledge.
The late Charles Smock of the psychology de
partment designed the model. It’s based on John
Piaget’s theory of cognitive development.
The acronym MAP is used to describe the three
main principles of the model. M stands for mis
match, A for activity-oriented and P for personal
regulation.
Basically, the theory is that children are at va
rious levels of development, Hawn said. Teachers
should address each child just beyond his level —
just enough to challenge the child.
In this model, the child is physically as well as
mentally active, he said. Concreteness is dealt with
more often than abstractness.
The child is in control of his own learning, he
said. The child can move around the classroom,
choosing among various groups or working alone.
There are no straight rows. Children can sit at
tables or on the floor. Children respond to what
“turns them on,” Hawn said, but they know what
they are supposed to do and they do it.
Parents are encouraged to volunteer in the class
room and become involved in policy making. They
become an extension of the school at home.
Eleanor Todd, project adviser, said, “There also
is a comprehensive component dealing with the
medical, dental and nutritional needs of the chil
dren.”
Todd works at the sites to determine how well
they are implementing the different components of
the program.
There once were seven schools involved in the
Follow Through program, she said.

Having bike lanes in Athens
would improve air quality, Ali
Jones, director of education for
Students for Environmental
Awareness, said in the group’s
monthly meeting.
Jones, a junior botany mcgor,
said Wednesday she met with the
Athens Transportation Coordi
nating Committee Wednesday
morning to discuss the problems
Athens may face as a result of poor
air quality.
She told SEA members she em
phasized the need for bike lanes in
order to help control Athens’ rising
ozone levels. Broad Street sees 27,-
000 cars daily, contributing to the
pollution, and that number is ex
pected to rise to
36,000 by the year 2010.
The average amount of pollutant
ozone for Athens is 60 to 65 parts
per billion, Jones said. However,
the amount varies and is in
fluenced by weather.
In 1988, which was character
ized by very dry, warm weather,
levels were recorded to have
reached 119 ppb. When 120 ppb is
recorded for two days, the Environ
mental Protection Agency calls it
non-attainment —causing feder
ally imposed regulations on what
type of industry the city may in
vite. Atlanta currently faces non
attainment.
Jones hopes the threat of lost
business in Athens will incite in
clusion of bike lanes in transporta
tion plans.
Derek Horn, a freshman history
major attending the meeting, sug
gested a bike-a-thon to create an
awareness of the number of bikers
on campus.
