Applications that seek funds to initiate a professional development program will not be considered. This public television station offers Web-based professional development. Each week, participants will explore and evaluate the use of the Internet for research, electronic communication and collaboration, real-time data tracking and Web publishing. Middle and high school teachers collaborate with one another and with university researchers during a month of intense study. Following each year's CORE institute, teams of participants conduct condensed versions at colleges and schools around the country.
Additional efforts are underway to deliver outreach through telecommunications.
