I just returned from a trip to Morris, Minnesota. University of Minnesota-Morris and the University of North Dakota are both in the second year of PT3 (Preparing Tomorrow’s Teachers To Use Technology) grants. PT3 institutions are categorized by focus. Both UND and Minnesota-Morris are classified as prioritizing project-based learning. PT3 has an interesting requirement called a collaborative exchange which asks that grant recipients visit each other. Every institution has a different way of going about things so you also get some new ideas when faculty members get together. Thanks to my hosts – Craig Kissock and Bill Riggs.

Minnesota-Morris PT3 program has a nice web site and you may find the annotated “site of the week” to be useful.
