These mentors work with teams who have applied to work on integration of technology in a project directly related to their curriculum.
Mentors are regular classroom teachers with technology and leadership skills.
The grant has also enabled 3 village parochial schools to participate in the project. Planning is underway for summative evaluation and dissemination of what has been learned from this massive effort. While it is early to address summative evaluative issues, it is possible to identify many components that have already shown significant success and which are replaceable. Many more students are using many more varied forms of technology to improve or demonstrate their learning. This diversity of implementation originates with teachers identifying places in their curriculums where student learning could be enhanced with the meaningful integration of technology, and working together to insert the technology for the benefit of student learning.
