The WEBPRIMITIVES education team brings together an enormous range of
technical, practical and pedagogical expertise in the area of
educational technology. As district and school administrators,
technology coordinators, educational publishers, teachers
and parents alike
become more concerned with the relationship between teaching
and technology in K-16,
WEBPRIMITIVES can help in the following areas:
1. Technology Planning and Program Development
WEBPRIMITIVES can help schools and school districts to develop
a thoughtful and thorough technology plan that takes into account
not only issues of equipment and networking but also teacher education
and curriculum integration.
2. Distance Learning and Telelearning.
Distance Education holds many promises, including individualized lifelong learning. Educational
institutions can now create distance classrooms that provide learning environments where each
student's brain is an active participant. Students will be able to spend their time investigating
course material when it is most convenient for them, instead of spending hours on travel and parking.
From interactive web-based learning environments to interactive real-time tutoring, WebPrimitives
can provide your institution with a wide range of services.

3. Integrating Teaching and Technology
As more schools acquire a critical mass of computer equipment and
network capabilities, issues of how the new information technologies
can actually improve teaching and learning become paramount.
The WEBPRIMITIVES team provides a combination of expertise not
commonly found in either university education departments,
educational companies, or technology companies. We develop resources for
teachers and students to enrich the experience and results of
teaching with computers in an age of networks.
4. Program and Technology Evaluation
WEBPRIMITIVES believes that the acquisition of computers and
networks in schools and in the community is too often viewed as
the end, rather than the beginning, of an educational technology
effort. We believe that a thoughtful, constructive analysis and
evaluation of educational technology projects provides schools
and communities with an essential component for effective,
continuous educational technology strategies. The
WEBPRIMITIVES team can provide a framework for, and carry out,
such analyses and evaluations.
