  Education Dept. Awards $135-Million to Support Technology in
  the Classroom

  By SUSAN GANLEY


  Vice-President Gore announced Tuesday that the U.S. Department
  of Education is awarding $135-million in grants to train
  teachers to use technology in the classroom. The grants will
  support efforts to improve teacher training by consortia
  involving colleges, state agencies, school districts, and
  non-profit organizations.

  Three types of grants are being awarded. Capacity-building
  grants will provide one year of support, averaging $135,000,
  to 138 consortia that are developing the initial groundwork
  for a program. Implementation grants will provide three years
  of support, averaging $390,000 a year, to 64 consortia that
  are ready to carry out ideas in the field. Catalyst grants
  provide three years of support, averaging $640,000, to 22
  national, regional, or statewide consortia that have the
  expertise and resources to stimulate large-scale improvements
  in the development and or certification of
  technology-proficient educators.
