eMINTS Comprehensive Program
About the Intervention
eMINTS Comprehensive Program is a professional development intervention designed for K-12 teachers in any subject area (including math, literacy, and science). Over 2 or more years, teachers participate in approximately 140 hours of sequenced professional development sessions (3-6 hours each) focused on integrating technology into the classroom and developing inquiry-based learning lessons. Teachers also receive up to 10 one-on-one coaching sessions (1-2 hours each) from instructional specialists in their classrooms. The program provides online resources including lesson plans, assessments, and classroom website templates. Teachers work with instructional specialists to create lesson plans and develop classroom websites. Technology coordinators in each school are trained to support technology integration. The program requires each student to have individual access to an Internet-connected computer or tablet.
