The Texas
Education Agency today announced the award of a TIE Grant to Lufkin ISD. The
grant will provide funds for the build-out and provisioning of three classrooms
in the district to promote Technology Integration in Education.
Media
Cottage provided the concept design for the classrooms and will oversee the
installation process, and provide guidance in the procurement of the equipment
and software. The collaborative work centers will offer audio and video
editing, graphics workstations, electronic publishing, and desktop
videoconferencing in a fully networked environment. Multiple students will
learn to work on various segments of a project and watch their combined efforts
bring a finished product into creation.
