In collaboration with Tech Corps Hawaii, the Hawaii State Department of Education is developing a comprehensive program using innovative technologies to raise the achievement of at-risk students and their families. The program will provide students and families with access to these technologies at places and times that extend beyond the normal boundaries and schedules of the school. Traditional schools will be transformed into learning centers that use the Internet and other telecommunications to extend the time and place for learning. The curriculum content will be aligned with state and national performance standards, and it will incorporate "real world problem solving strategies" to facilitate the transition of students from school to work. Twenty-seven consortium members will contribute to this project.
