Question: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``International Cooperative 
Antiterrorism Act of 2002''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) The use of terrorism is detestable and an illegitimate 
        means of political expression.
            (2) International terrorist organizations pose a direct 
        threat to the United States, and this threat is becoming more 
        acute and more difficult to prevent.
            (3) The threat from international terrorism is made far 
        more dangerous by the proliferation of chemical, biological, 
        and radiological weapons and the means to produce those 
        weapons.
            (4) The prosecution of the war against international 
        terrorist organizations must continue until those organizations 
        and the threat they pose to the people and interests of the 
        United States are eliminated.
            (5) The United States can only win the war on terrorism if 
        it receives cooperation from other countries and entities.
            (6) Protecting the United States homeland and United States 
        interests overseas from terrorism is of the highest priority in 
        the foreign relations of the United States.
            (7) Cooperation in the global war against international 
        terrorism must be a primary focus of United States foreign 
        relations, United States assistance, and international security 
        relations.
            (8) Winning the war on terrorism requires cooperation from 
        the international community, especially in the areas of 
        preventing the financing of terror, sharing information on 
        international terror networks, eliminating terror cells, and in 
        preventing the promotion of anti-Americanism and the 
        glorification of terrorism in state-owned media and state-
        controlled schools.
            (9) The promotion of terrorism, intolerance, and virulent 
        anti-Americanism in state-owned media and state-controlled 
        education systems is abhorrent and poses a long-term threat to 
        the safety and security of the United States as well as the 
        community of nations.
            (10) All countries and entities must be encouraged to 
        cooperate in the global war on international terrorism.
            (11) Many foreign governments and entities are doing little 
        to counter proterrorist and prointolerance messages to mass 
        audiences, including to school age children.
            (12) Countries providing direct or indirect assistance to 
        international terrorist organizations undermine the direct 
        security interests of the United States.
            (13) Countries demonstrating indifference to or providing 
        actual endorsement of international terror as a legitimate 
        political tool make a direct threat to the security interests 
        of the United States.
            (14) The National Commission on Terrorism established by 
        section 591 of the Foreign Operations Export Financing, and 
        Related Programs Appropriations Act, 1999, as enacted by Public 
        Law 105-277 (112 Stat. 2681-210), concluded that the United 
        States should strengthen its efforts to discourage the broad 
        range of assistance that countries provide to international 
        terrorists.
            (15) The National Commission on Terrorism further 
        recommends that the President make more effective use of 
        authority to designate foreign governments as ``not fully 
        cooperative'' with the United States counterterrorism efforts.
            (16) United States assistance programs and the transfer of 
        United States Munitions List items are a critical tool of 
        United States foreign policy and winning the global war on 
        terrorism.
            (17) Countries receiving United States assistance and the 
        export of items on the United States Munitions List must be 
        obligated to support the global war on international terror.
            (18) Several existing laws, including the USA Patriot Act 
        of 2001, the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 
        1996, the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, the Arms Export 
        Control Act, and the Export Administration Act of 1979 (or 
        successor statute), prohibit the provision of United States 
        assistance, and the licensing for export of items on the United 
        States Munitions List, to countries supporting terror or not 
        fully cooperating in antiterror efforts of the United States. 
        These laws should be expanded to include the definition of 
        ``fully cooperative in the global war against international 
        terrorism'' set forth in this Act, including preventing 
        promotion of terror in state-owned and controlled media and 
        educational systems.

SEC. 3. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

Question: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Educational Technology Utilization 
Extension Assistance Act''.

SEC. 2. PURPOSE.

    It is the purpose of this Act to improve the utilization of 
educational technologies in elementary and secondary education by 
creating an educational technology extension service based at 
undergraduate institutions of higher education.

SEC. 3. FINDINGS.

    The Congress finds the following:
            (1) Extension services such as the Manufacturing Extension 
        Partnership and the Agricultural Extension Service have proven 
        to be effective public/private partnerships to integrate new 
        technologies and to improve utilization of existing 
        technologies by small to medium sized manufacturers and the 
        United States agricultural community.
            (2) Undergraduate institutions of higher education working 
        with non-profit organizations, State, and Federal agencies can 
        tailor educational technology extension programs to meet 
        specific local and regional requirements.
            (3) Undergraduate institutions of higher education, often 
        with the assistance of the National Science Foundation, have 
        for the past 20 years been integrating educational technologies 
        into their curricula, and as such they can draw upon their own 
        experiences to advise elementary and secondary school educators 
        on ways to integrate a variety of educational technologies into 
        the educational process.
            (4) Many elementary and secondary school systems, 
        particularly in rural and traditionally under served areas, 
        lack general information on the most effective methods to 
        integrate their existing technology infrastructure, as well as 
        new educational technology, into the educational process and 
        curriculum.
            (5) Most Federal and State educational technology programs 
        have focused on acquiring educational technologies with less 
        emphasis on the utilization of those technologies in the 
        classroom and the training and infrastructural requirements 
        needed to efficiently support those types of technologies. As a 
        result, in many instances, the full potential of educational 
        technology has not been realized.
            (6) Our global economy is increasingly reliant on a 
        workforce not only comfortable with technology, but also able 
        to integrate rapid technological changes into the production 
        process. As such, in order to remain competitive in a global 
        economy, it is imperative that we maintain a work-ready labor 
        force.
            (7) According to ``Teacher Quality: A Report on the 
        Preparation and Qualifications of Public School Teacher'', 
        prepared by the Department of Education, only 1 in 5 teachers 
        felt they were well prepared to work in a modern classroom.
            (8) The most common form of professional development for 
        teachers continue to be workshops that typically last no more 
        than one day and have little relevance to teachers' work in the 
        classroom.
            (9) A 1998 national survey completed by the Department of 
        Education found that only 19 percent of teachers had been 
        formally mentored by another teacher, and that 70 percent of 
        these teachers felt that this collaboration was very helpful to 
        their teaching.
