The ACT Now! (Advanced Curriculum through Technology) project will create an extensive bank of teacher-developed, technology-enriched learning activities, and it will support the development of multimedia electronic portfolios by all students in the Sweetwater Union High School District in California. A wireless telecommunication network, to be established by the district and its partners, will link schools to each other, to community sites, and to worldwide resources, providing equitable access to information, including availability of training and career opportunities. To strengthen and expand San Diego's Countywide School-to-Career Partnership, Tech Prep career majors will be added, and teachers will be trained in current uses of technology in the work force. Students in all of the district's 19 secondary schools and in the Adult and Continuing Education Division will benefit from these new technologies. Twelve consortium members will contribute to this effort.
