Participants
in the Building Learning with Technology project created and implemented
engaging, standards-based units enriched with technology. These units were
developed by faculty-student design teams and utilized in courses or field
experience classrooms for future teachers. Project partners included the University of Maryland, College Park,
Prince George's Community
College, and the Prince
George's County (MD) Public Schools. Other partners in this initiative were
Apple Computer and Verizon/GTE, which assisted with the technology
infrastructure for the project. This Implementation grant was funded through a
"Preparing Tomorrow's Teachers to Use Technology" (PT3) grant awarded
by the U. S. Department of
Education.
The U. S. Department of Education
provided $1,314,726 in funding for the Building Learning with Technology
project (45%), whereas non-federal sources provided $1,581,897 (55%) of the
total cost of the project.
