A consortium, led by the Center for Collaborative Education (CCE) and the Institute for Learning Technologies (ILT) at Columbia University, is joining with the New York City Board of Education and several information and telecommunications firms to demonstrate how low-income children can achieve world-class education standards. The project will use digital libraries, desktop videoconferencing, collaborative problem solving with digital tools, and multimedia portfolios to link learning resources across schools. The project serves disadvantaged students in areas including the Upper Manhattan Empowerment Zone and several communities in the Bronx, Queens, and Brooklyn. Twenty-one consortium partners and 47 schools will contribute to this effort.
