It's the unexpected benefits from technology that have been the most rewarding, Moore said. For example, during a recent meeting with parents, some parents asked if they could get lessons on the computer because their children were showing them things that they didn't know. They are leading the way. The University of Dayton's Institute for Pastoral Initiatives has taken a proactive role in helping Catholic schools introduce technology in their curriculums. Each summer UD collaborates with the National Catholic Educational Association to invite Catholic schools to participate in the New Frontiers for Catholic Schools project.
Educators meet on campus and design technology plans for their schools.
