Abstract

Abstract A collaboration between teachers, education researchers, and computational scientists to apply advanced information technology in the K-12 classroom is described. Over the past year in the Living Schoolbook project, prototype Education Information Infrastructure (EII) services were developed, teacher team training conducted, and teacher projects to create multimedia content for EII services established. Large scale projects combining the expertise and resources of teachers, education researchers, computational scientists, the media industry, and computing and communications vendors are needed to develop education as a National Challenge application.
