In the fall of 2003, the Eastern Townships School Board grades 5 & 6 teachers were faced with implementing a one-to-one laptop initiative, a new provincial curriculum, a balanced literacy framework and a language initiative whereby the students would receive more of their instruction time in a second language.

This mode of delivery allowed the consultants to adjust to the diverse and ever changing needs of the teachers. (Contains 3 figures and 9 endnotes.)
