Indiana State Dept. of Education, Indianapolis. Indiana Consortium for Computer and High Technology.
This plan outlines the funding for activities of the Indiana Consortium for Computer and High Technology Education for the 1987-89 biennium. The consortium was created by the Indiana General Assembly in 1983 to promote effective use of technology in schools, evaluate educational computer use, provide training, and assist local schools in developing computer technology programs. The research and development activities of the consortium are described, as well as maintenance and support programs, including courseware and hardware training and support, instructional video programming, central service centers, specialized learning centers, preview centers, teacher fellowships, and conferences. Also described is a final consortium responsibility, the "Tomorrow's School" function, which is designed to provide a link between current and future educational technology activities. A chart of the Computer Learning and Training Appropriations for 1987-88, 1988-89, and the biennium totals is provided, together with a map showing the division of the state into northern, central, and southern regions for purposes of the consortium programs.
