Excerpt:
"There are many ways to introduce a chapter or a section of a textbook. One of the most common has been merely to 'assign' it for study for tomorrow. There are advantages in making a chapter assignment. Such an assignment requires no preparation on the part of the teacher. It takes very little time, and it can be made at the very end of the class period, even after the bell has rung. 'Assignment giving' is an obvious benefit to the teacher who wants to put little or no effort into the process. But since little effort goes into 'assigning' a chapter, is there reason to expect that any notable learning will result? In fact, do not both students and teacher suffer from poorly conceived assignments?"

Category: General ANCSA
One of a series of short booklets on ANCSA. Napoleon summarizes five Alaskan political interest groups and their roles in the passage of ANCSA: the State of Alaska, the federal government, the urban population, industry, and rural Alaska Natives. In his words, ANCSA "...is not the answer to problems faced by the Alaska Natives...but another political asset they have in trying to solve their problems." Napolean discusses Alaska Native political resources in terms of how these resources can contribute to self-determination for Native people. Select terms are defined and a class project is suggested. Other booklets in the series: Stock, Corporations, and the Native Land Claims Settlement; Environmental Issues in the Land Claims; New Tribes for New Times; The Politics of Passage; Village Alaska; Future Land Use Planning Alternatives for Alaska; and Planning How to Use Land in Village Alaska.

Beginning first as papers at an international conference on alternative development and security in the Arctic the papers now are tjhe chapters of this book. Information is included on Arctic Haze and there is a chapter on an Inuit perspective to sustainable security written by Alaskan Dalee Sambo.
