The U.S. Department of Education's Community Technology Centers (CTCs) aim to promote the
development of model programs that demonstrate the educational effectiveness of technology in urban
and rural areas and economically distressed communities.
SRI International recently produced a series of six CTC 'case studies.' Each study describes the
community served by the grantee's centers, the organization of educational programs, staffing and
professional development patterns, partnerships that centers have developed with other organizations
in their communities, and the challenges faced by centers in start-up and program implementation.
Academic enrichment and job training are addressed in several of these studies.
