MAKING A DIFFERENCE

A true friend KENTUCKY EDUCATORS RELY ON KET’S PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT RESOURCES

ONNA WEAR MAY BE

the principal at Paducah’s Commonwealth Middle College, but if you ask any of her students, they’re more likely to give her the title of friend.

Like a true friend, the bubbly, positive Wear concentrates on bringing out the best in the highschool students from three counties enrolled in the unique joint high school/college program at Western Kentucky Community and Technical College.

And the lifelong friend that Wear herself has relied upon throughout her four decades in education has been KET. “KET has been a part of my life since I became a teacher 40-plus years ago,” said Wear, who has taught at the middle- and high-school levels, as well as serving as assistant principal in schools both large and small including Ballard Memorial High School, which has just 425 students.

“As a small high school we couldn’t provide all the classes that were needed and wanted,” she said, “so we turned to distance learning particularly for foreign language, physics and calculus.”

In every school, she noted, including her current one, her staff has taken advantage of the professional development, or PD, courses KET offers for teachers to complete required ongoing training.

Recently, Commonwealth Middle College teachers completed Promoting Positive Behavior in Schools, an online PD course developed by KET and the Kentucky Department of Education in

“Without KET’s course, to get this training we would have had to pay for substitute teachers, pay for travel, pay for the training, and, if it was after school ... it would be extra pay. But this way, financially, it was easier.”

response to the new Kentucky regulation enacted to protect the welfare and safety of children, school personnel, and visitors in public schools.

“Without KET’s course, to get this training we would have had to pay for substitute teachers, pay for travel, pay for the training, and, if it was after school, for classified (workers) it would be extra pay,” she said. “But this way, financially, it was easier, but beyond that, it was easier because it was flexible and we could work at our own pace.”

Online PD courses also are a particular boon to remote Western Kentucky, she added; entire staffs can be trained rather than sending one emissary who must return and pass the information along to the rest of the staff.

Wear also cites KET’s Education Matters program as a vital resource to educators.

“Education Matters is pivotal to get information to people in our state about the face of education in Kentucky, I really believe that,” she said. “The guests are educators, real teachers, and legislators who control the funding for so many of our programs — everything from curriculum to assessment. It’s so important.”

In addition to her role as educator, Wear also fulfills a community role for

KET. As a community ambassador and Friend of KET, she carries to Western Kentucky the message that KET is a trusted resource.

“I really believe KET challenges us,” she said. “KET makes learning a lifelong adventure, and part of what my job is as a Friends Board member is to share that with other people.”

And it’s the diversity of KET’s programing schedule, she said, that’s key to achieving this goal.

“KET brings a wealth of learning to all people of all ages — whether you’re early elementary or whether you’re 75 sitting listening to bluegrass music,” she said. “There is something there for everyone.

“And KET never grows old,” she adds. “It is so modern — from technology to the programming — it truly stays with what’s new and what is current.”

COVER STORY

The best nature, science, and technology programming, including new

episodes of acclaimed series Nature and Nova, and new specials are all part of the “Think Wednesday” lineup premiering Wednesday, April 9 on KET. Tune to the Wednesday night lineup for the smart, fascinating content you love beginning at 8/7 pm with new Nature episodes highlighting animal prosthetics, Japanese snow monkeys, and wild mule deer.

At 9/8 pm on Nova, you’ll be gripped by the three-part “Inside Animal Minds,” which explores breakthroughs in the revolutionary science of animal cognition, focusing on three iconic creatures — birds, dogs, and dolphins.

At 10/9 pm, the new three-part series Your Inner Fish delves deeply into the past and reveals a startling truth: Hidden within the human body is a story of life on Earth. Based on the best-selling book by paleobiologist Neil Shubin, this scientific adventure story whisks viewers from Ethiopia to the Arctic Circle on a hunt for the many ways our animal ancestors have shaped our anatomical destiny.

Think Wednesday—and be smarter all week long.

Safe and Sound Children’s emotional health focus of new KET documentary

All parents want their children to grow up to be happy, secure, healthy adults. But how much do we know about how that actually happens?

The new KET Health Special Report Safe and Sound: Raising Emotionally Healthy Children in a Stressful World explores why social and emotional development is so important in the first years of life.

It premieres Monday, April 21 at 9/8 pm on KET. Research on brain development shows that positive early experiences are critical for long-term mental and physical health. When young children do not receive proper nurturing, or they experience trauma or

constant stress, it can have serious repercussions for their development.

Through interviews with experts and profiles of programs across Kentucky, Safe and Sound presents

‘Education Matters’ focuses on teacher professional growth and effectiveness Students succeed when their teachers can create an inspiring and engaging environment for learning. Find out how Kentucky teachers are reaching this goal on the next Education Matters, airing Monday, April 28 at 9/8 pm on KET. Kentucky’s new statewide Professional Growth and Effectiveness System (PGES) is designed to give Kentucky teachers the tools they need to become more effective in the classroom.

In the program, host Bill Goodman and guests discuss PGES and its impact. Video segments go to Marshall and Boone counties to see how schools are implementing PGES, now in its pilot year.

Murray artist Leys featured in new ‘Kentucky Muse’

Your Support Helps Make KET Possible Thank you to the following corporate partners for their generous support of excellence in television.

With inspiration stemming from his boyhood along the shores of Lake Michigan to his Kentucky home near Land Between the Lakes, Murray artist Dale Daniel Leys is fascinated by space and the science of life.

Discover the work of this teacher and visual artist in the latest in KET’s Kentucky Muse series, “Dale Daniel Leys: Drawing Life,” airing Wednesday, April 16 at 9:30/8:30 pm on KET2.

Leys started drawing as a toddler, and his talent for art was obvious from a very young age. Seagull skulls and fish bones from along Lake Michigan soon made their way into his drawings. Today, these subjects still captivate him. Along with nature, science plays a large role in Leys works. He is fascinated by space and the science of life.

Leys also completes onsite drawings and watercolors in the western and southwest United States, Italy, and the Czech Republic. They are small, highly detailed, and painstakingly accurate. A Murray State University professor since 1977, Leys has inspired many students who have become art teachers, gallery owners, and artists.

Kentucky Muse “Dale Daniel Leys: Drawing Life” also airs Sunday, April 13 at 7/6 pm and Friday, April 18 at 9/8 pm on the Kentucky Channel.

Now, science is suggesting some may have taken refuge thousands of miles away in South America. In addition to the scientific evidence, blonde, blue-eyed indigenes suggest that contact with the West occurred long before Columbus arrived.

Civil War: The Untold Story KET Begins Sunday, April 6 • 3/2 pm KET2 Begins Sunday, April 6 • 10/9 pm Examine this well-documented conflict through the lens of the Western Campaign, which dramatically shaped the final outcome of the Civil War. The five-part series features poignant letters from both soldiers and civilians that provide new insights into the causes of the Civil War, life on the homefront, the politics of war, the issue of slavery, and the relatively unheralded role African Americans played in the conflict.

Independent Lens “Muscle Shoals” KET Monday, April 21 • 10/9 pm Located alongside the Tennessee River, Muscle Shoals, Ala., is the unlikely breeding ground for some of America’s most creative and defiant music. Some of the most important and influential songs of all time, by artists ranging from Lynyrd Skynyrd to Wilson Pickett, the Rolling Stones to Aretha Franklin, Alicia Keys to the Civil Wars, hail from what Native Americans called “Singing River.”

Nazi Mega Weapons “Super Tanks” KET Wednesday, April 30 • 10/9 pm Hitler’s megalomania led him to demand construction of the largest tank the world had ever seen — a mobile fortress weighing 180 tons. “Super Tanks” shows how even this colossus couldn’t satisfy Hitler’s thirst for enormous weapons; he further commissioned a land battleship weighing 1,000 tons.

SHORT TAKES Today’s KET: Focused on Children’s Emotional Health We live in a stressful world. But what happens when pressures of day-today family life go beyond congested commutes and overscheduled activities?

New research shows that extreme childhood adversity and prolonged stress – called toxic stress – can have serious repercussions on the long-term mental and physical health of a child.

Safe and Sound: Raising Emotionally Healthy Children in a Stressful World, KET’s newest health documentary premiering April 21 at 9/8 pm, examines brain development, the importance of nurturing in the first years of life, and how to reduce severe stress and trauma in families.

The good news is that secure relationships are a protective shield for children, and KET’s special report shows how Kentucky communities and agencies are working to support parents.

Healthy people and healthy communities are vital in order to make Kentucky a better place to live and work.

KET’s Health Initiative is helping to show the way to a healthier future. We’ve examined traumatic brain injury, preventing teen suicide, domestic violence, premature birth, childhood obesity, and healthcare in rural populations.

KET’s approach is to highlight solutions in addition to examining the causes of Kentucky’s health crisis.

We hope you’ll join with us in pursuing solutions and a healthy population. Visit KET.org/Health to watch video of KET’s health programs and to see a preview of Safe and Sound: Raising Emotionally Healthy Children in a Stressful World.

Sincerely,

Ferrell Wellman retires from ‘Comment on Kentucky’ Veteran broadcaster, educator, and Kentucky Journalism Hall of Fame member Ferrell Wellman retired in February from hosting Comment on Kentucky, KET’s longest-running public affairs program.

“Over the last few months, I had been considering when would be a good time to leave the moderator’s chair,” Wellman said.

“I’m a firm believer in leaving a position a little too early rather than a little late,” he added, citing a recent knee injury as influencing the timing of his decision.

Another veteran broadcaster, Bill Bryant, anchor/managing editor at WKYT in Lexington and host of Kentucky Newsmakers, is currently filling in as interim host. Most of Wellman’s reporting career was spent with WAVE-TV in Louisville, where he was its Frankfort reporter for more than 16 years. He also taught broadcasting at Eastern Kentucky University.
