Voices from Networked Classrooms.
Brownlee-Conyers, Jean; Kraber, Brenda
Educational Leadership, v54 n3 p34-36 Nov 1996
In 1994, the Glenview (Illinois) Public Schools created three technology-rich educational environments (TREEs) that use alternative teaching and learning methods through networked communication technologies. Each setting consists of three teachers and about 75 heterogeneously grouped students (ages 9-12) who work collaboratively to solve problems reflecting their own interests. Challenges and benefits are discussed. (MLH)
