In an effort to help increase community understanding of technology
integration efforts funded through the No Child Left Behind EdTech Grant
and its effect on student performance in Superintendent Region 2, the
C.I.I. has begun creating a series of video clips highlighting local
technology integration “best practices”. In addition to streaming these
segments here, they are also incorporated in various television programs
that are broadcast throughout the region on WHRO Channel 15 or through
local cable channels. Additional segments are regularly added.
