Objectives which have been met, are listed according to the year in which they were accomplished.


Year One

Description
The goal of this project is to establish and refine standards, and develop training for a new designation of "information technology intensive courses."

Objectives

  • Develop a set of standards required for the information technology intensive course designation
  • Design a two-week training program and set of instructional materials for faculty to redesign their courses and integrate technology based on the standards for technology intensive courses
  • Train 15 to 20 faculty members to develop information technology intensive courses to assist faculty members in the redesign of their curriculum and in the development of course materials
  • Deliver 15 to 20 information technology intensive course during the 1998 school year

Technology Intensive Team of 1997

Participants

All grant participants were general education professors within various departments at the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

Year Two

Description
The goal of this project is to begin to redesign 10 to 15 teacher education and professional development courses for a new designation of "technology intensive" courses.

Objectives

  • Train 15 to 20 teacher education faculty members to develop technology intensive courses
  • Design a training program and set of instructional materials for faculty to redesign their courses and integrate technology
  • Technology based on the standards for technology intensive course
  • Assist faculty members in the redesign of their curriculum and in the developments of course materials
  • Deliver 15 to 20 technology intensive courses during the 1998-99 school year

At the completion of the project, the participants will be able to:

  • Develop technology intensive courses based on designated technology intensive standards
  • Select appropriate technology and software applications related to course content
  • Create activities designed to engage students in the use of technology and course content
  • Model effective design and use of technology
  • Demonstrate proficiency in variety of software applications related to se in their courses, particularly to enhance science and math concepts
  • Develop alternative assessment instruments for evaluating technology-based projects
  • Evaluate and improve their course based on student assessments.

Technology Intensive Team of 1998

Participants

Most grant participants were professors within the TECS department at the University of Hawaii-Manoa. Most taught math and one taught science. One professor taught within the Education Foundation Department. Access a list of participants and their email addresses.


Year Three

Description

The goal of this project is to: continue supporting the redesign of 12 teacher education and professional development courses for a new designation of "technology intensive" courses; and to provide course development support and professional development of a new group of 10 to 15 faculty and teachers in partnership schools.

Objectives

  • Continue to provide support for 12 faculty members, particularly through one-on-one assistance during course development and implementation with the participating K-12 schools during 1998 and 1999
  • Provide professional development for an additional 10 to 15 teacher education faculty members to begin to develop technology intensive courses
  • Provide resources such as the Technology Intensive web page for faculty to redesign their courses and integrate technology based on the standards for technology intensive courses
  • Assist faculty members in the redesign of their curriculum and in the development of course materials
  • Deliver an additional 10 to 15 prototype technology intensive courses during the 1999-2000 school year.

At the completion of the project, the faculty participants will be able to:

  • Develop technology intensive courses based on designated technology intensive standards
  • Select appropriate technology and software applications related to course content and Hawaii State DOE academic content and student performance standards
  • Create activities designed to engage students in the use of technology and course content
  • Model effective design and use of technology
  • Demonstrate proficiency in using technology in their courses, particularly to enhance reading, science, and math concepts
  • Help student teachers develop and implement technology-based instructional strategies related to the Hawaii State DOE academic content and student performance standards in their field-centered practica and classroom settings
  • Develop alternative assessment instruments for evaluating technology based projects
  • Evaluate and improve their course based on student assessments

Technology Intensive Team of 1999

Participants

All grant participants were general education professors within various departments at the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

Year Four

Description
A proposal for year four has been submitted. A response is pending.

Objectives

TBA

Technology Intensive Team of 2000

Participants
The focus for this year's grant will be to provide support for two technology intensive courses. The first, taught by Dr. Andrea Bartlett, will instruct pre-service teachers how to create an electronic portfolio using video and PowerPoint. Dr. Michael Hayes will instruct a group of pre-service teachers how to use digital video to think crtically about their schools' roles in their communities.
