Partners

The CRLT had its birth in the successful collaboration of businesses, government agencies, the University, and private foundations. CRLT's list of partners continues to grow. So does the list of school districts and individual educators who work with the Center to bring new ways of learning to an ever-broadening number of people.

University students are invited to join CRLT as interns, student associates and student research associates. Student participants gain valuable experience and sometimes class credit.

ISIS Project

The International Studies for Indiana Schools (ISIS) project was created jointly by Office of International Programs(OIP) and Center for Research on Learning and Technology in 1995. Its purpose is to use interactive video (IAV) technologies to deliver tailored international programming to schools in Indiana and other states.
ISIS also provides orientations to IAV equipment and programming. As it evolves, ISIS is facilitating direct connections between Indiana classrooms and classrooms or speakers abroad.

WorldBoard Project

WorldBoard is a powerful new information and communication technology being developed and promoted by the WorldBoard Forum. At its most basic level, WorldBoard enables people to associate Web objects with a PLACE - Proximity and Location to Access Contextual Enlightenment. This enhancement of the Web enables anyone to virtually attach information, tools and serrvices to any location on the planet or, using an identification tag, to objects or people in the environment.
The design goals of the WorldBoard Project are to:

1. Be operational on a planetary scale from day one
2. Be technology independent and able to improve rapidly as technology advances
3. Be based on open standards so everyone can participate
4. Be so simple that people can use it in everyday life
