Opportunities for career observation and interaction also are noted in the narratives and tables. As Internet capacity grows, dialogues, along with immediate feedback, facilitate global dissemination and expand opportunities for ongoing evaluation and assessment. The models support the BPS Student Technology Competencies , now a condition of graduation. Technology is embedded as a tool in every model. Each model shows ways to incorporate word processing, desktop publishing, graphics, slide presentations, databases, software and the Internet into lessons.
Models also specify technology applications and Web sites.
In compliance with the BPS Teacher Technology Standards, participants have reached the Intermediate Level or beyond. Thanks to the Office of Technology, teachers receive hardware needed for project implementation. Teachers also receive technical support at Spring Conferences, Summer Institutes, workshops and call back sessions.
