The course has these major goals:
  1. To become proficient in the instructional applications of (at least) three instructional technologies (such as listed below).
  2. To develop your own home page, or one for your school/department, that, (among other things), communicates your philosophy of the role of technology in classroom instruction.
  3. To do a systematic review of (at least) one course that you are teaching, in the light of issues raised by TIMSS and other major research projects in mathematics and/or science education.
  4. To take part in an internship (arranged by Goals 2000) that provides background in how mathematics and/or science can be contextualized, with the assistance of technology.
  5. To develop a proposal for a revised course in your department (school) that makes extensie use of technology to implement goals for effective science, mathematics and/or technology education, as recommended, for example, by the NCTM PSSM (Principles and Standards for School Mathematics). Explicit linkage with the Illinois Learning Standards is expected.
