Preparing
Tomorrow's Teachers to Use Technology (PT3)
Welcome
to the PT3 Project Website
The
PT3 project at Florida International University is funded by the U.S.
Department of Education's PT3 Office (Preparing Tomorrow's Teachers
to Use Technology). PT3 grants support innovative program improvements
to prepare technology-proficient educators for 21st century schools.
FIU's College of Education received initial funding to support this
three-year Implementation Grant in July 2001.
The overall mission of
the PT3 project at Florida International University is to implement
innovative strategies for infusing technology into and improving
the teacher preparation program. Developing future teachers who
know how to use technology to improve teaching and learning is a
major challenge in teacher education today.
The PT3 project
is a collaborative effort between Florida International University
and the Miami-Dade County School System (M-DCPS), the fourth largest
school district in the United States. Together with many other stakeholders,
the partners are working to develop and integrate technology as a
tool for learning throughout the South Florida education system.
