Working in partnership with faculty, we create flexibly adaptive tools that teachers can shape to fit their particular classroom context. Each of our projects has focused on overlapping areas of innovation to support student inquiry and improve students' understanding. While each of these projects has pursued its own objectives, the unifying feature across these efforts is the innovative use of learning technologies and the high level of interaction among technologists and faculty as they share ideas and collaboratively design curricular resources and tools.
Projects emphasize collaboration, interaction, and student activity.
They promote better communication, personalization, and the multiplication of spaces, real and virtual, in which to invite students to study, research, communicate, and learn. We encourage Columbia University faculty members to prepare and submit project proposals and contribute to our important base of community knowledge using our online application . Center staff members are available to provide individualized assistance to prospective partners in preparation of their proposals.
