Brief
description of Project M3
In June 2000, Project
M3 received a three year implementation grant for $1,134.394.00 from the
U.S. Department of Education’s Preparing Tomorrow’s Teachers to Use
Technology Grant Program to develop technologically astute and competent
teacher education graduates who are capable of integrating technology in
their school settings into their curriculum to improve the teaching and
learning of their students. Over the duration of the grant, Project M3 will
receive over $1, 232,771 from non-federal sources.
These funds are used
to support Project M3 activities so that pre-service teachers see
models
of meaningful ways technology can be used in their subjects to help students
reach standards of achievement. Project M3 provides
mentors
who know and understand technology and who are using technology effectively.
And finally, Project M3 provides mobile
technology for classroom and instructional use, Project M3 uses
wireless technology, mobile carts of laptop computers, and personal digital
assistants to bring technology to students rather than students to
technology.
