In provides a multimedia learning environment for the East Palo Alto community, and through electronic communications, to communities elsewhere. Plugged In emphasizes community and community building and its programs are based on group discussion and team-work. Instruction is designed to develop an awareness of the steps involved in creating a group project and students explore and create native formats using technology as a storytelling device.
Students establish an on-line presence on the Internet by the creation of home pages.
The goal of Plugged In is to develop critical thinking skills. Finished projects are available to view and interact with, and provide a wealth of examples that adult educators can use as models to design a system of their own. Use the Back Arrows to return to the Indexes. All rights Reserved.
