The Mag-Net Project is a Professional Development network and virtual centre of shared expertise. Mag-Net Project Officers support member schools in developing and integrating new technologies into the curriculum. They provide this support in the workplace through team teaching and facilitating any required technical support.
Members support one another with email , phone and Internet communication systems .
Mag-Net provided the focal point for initiating collaborative curriculum development amongst teachers in the network. Mag-Net also disseminates technological knowledge amongst the member schools. Products of curriculum collaboration between members are made available to other schools through the virtual support centre established as a web site on the Internet. Through an integrated approach the project has three major aims. To develop the professional culture of teaching and a focus on student learning using a range of learning technologies by sharing curriculum ideas and technological expertise.
