Attached is the Distance Learning Equipment Grant application for the 2005-2006 school year. Applications must be submitted by October 12, 2005, through an education service cooperative. Faxed applications will not be accepted.
The primary focus of the grant will be to provide distance learning equipment to those school districts that do not currently have interactive video equipment.
Districts that receive a grant must use the distance learning equipment to send or receive a course with an APSCN code during the 2006-2007 school year. Grant recipients must also provide two written reports to the Arkansas Department of Education during the 2006-2007 school year.
Additional information and assistance regarding the grant application process may be obtained through an education service cooperative or from Ms. Belinda Kittrell at the Arkansas Department of Education.
