Brooks has applied successfully for several grants in connection with Ohio's educational technology initiatives. He likens his effort to rolling a snowball down a hill. Then I have to keep the ball rolling and picking up speed, but not so fast that it gets out of control and breaks apart. Right now we have the momentum, and the snow is good. Brooks currently directs an Ohio SchoolNet prototype linking 280 teachers in two districts with one another, the Internet, Miami University and parents.
Technology can be a tremendous help in that way.
