Message of congratulations to the
New Tech Network upon reaching more than 100 replications of the New
Technology High School model, April, 2012.
|
The New Technology 21st Century High School model is one of the outstanding
new 21st Century Secondary School
models. New Tech pratices in project-based learning, assessment of 21st
Century Skills, and online learning platforms may be the most advanced in
the US and elsewhere, though much work remains to be done. I served as Director
of Strategic Planning for the New Technology Foundation for 8 years, 2002-2009,
working with an outstanding Napa, CA - based team, as we supported 50 communities
across 9 states to launch New Tech High Schools. As of Summer, 2009, New
Technology Foundation is now the New
Tech Network, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the KnowledgeWorks
Foundation, which aims to scale significantly New Tech schools in the
US. -- Bob, August, 2009. [Update 2015-2016 school year: The New
Tech Network is now an independent nonprofit organization that supports
over 180 schools in 28 states
and Australia.]
