| AT&T ENRICH is a partnership between AT&T,
the Illinois State Board of Education, the Chicago Public Schools and the Chicago Catholic Schools. Two goals of
the project are to train high school biology teachers to:
- develop biology curriculum that integrates technology and engaged learning,
- improve leadership skills so they can serve as models and change agents
During the summer of 2000, 24 biology teachers from Chicago
Catholic and Public high schools, worked together to review, edit, re-write and test
approximately 85 lessons that integrate biology, technology and engaged learning. These
lessons were developed over the past two years by teachers from both school systems
working in teams and independently.
During the past two school years, teachers used these lessons in their classroom and have provided feedback to the team of 24 who will select
the
best 75-100 of these lessons for further testing during the 2000-01
school year and eventual publication for teacher use across the USA.
Teachers interested in testing some of these lessons during the upcoming school year should contact Program
Manager, Angelo Militello at amilitello@cps.csc.k12.il.us
