Extractions: State Improvement Grant Applications Funded in 2001 Wyoming Abstract Basic Information Improvement Strategies Return to Main Page Wyoming Abstract or Conceptual Framework for State Systemic Change The Wyoming State Improvement Grant (WySIG) project, "Project Readiness," proposes to build a systemic reform approach to ensure that all students, including students with special needs,, actively participate in the regular classroom as Wyoming moves to a rigorous, standards-based educational system. Students with disabilities will receive the core educational services and programs that will enable them to master all of the state standards, beginning with the graduating class of 2005 and beyond. The four basic components of this reform approach involve: All the initiatives proposed for this project begin and end with standards. This project begins by identifying the needs of the student with a disability and then proposing and executing activities that ultimately help that student meet the standards all other students are expected to meet and be a productive citizen. To achieve that, changes will be made at the school level, LEA and the state level to help the student. The activities proposed in this project are designed and directed to achieve that goal. The ultimate outcome is to change policy at the state level by involving all the stakeholders and increasing the effectiveness of inclusive classroom practices by educators.

Extractions: A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n National Conference on Teacher Quality - Exemplary Practices in Teacher Preparation Exemplary Practices Wyoming is the ninth largest state by area with 98,000 square miles and ranks lowest in population with only 500,000 citizens. Wyoming's educational system encompasses one university, seven community colleges, and 48 school districts. The great distances between cities and the sparse population spread across the state create unique challenges for education in Wyoming. Technology can be utilized to address these challenges. The University of Wyoming, under the direction of Dr. Barbara Hakes, planned and designed a statewide compressed video system during 1989-91. This compressed video system was named the Video Education Interactive Network (VEIN) and was implemented beginning with 3 remote sites in 1992 and increasing the number of sites to 15 over the next two years. These sites include regional education and community centers and the community colleges. During 1998-99, this compressed video system was upgraded to the Tandberg Videoconferencing system and expanded to include over 35 community and educational sites and all 65 K-12 schools in the state of Wyoming. This statewide system can be utilized for the delivery of courses and to conduct on-line meetings for statewide task forces and committees. It can also be used for meetings with pre-service students out in the field during their junior and senior years during their practicum and residency in teaching semesters.
