Technology-Based Remediation RFP
Technology-based remediation involves integrating computer-based and/or multimedia applications into a course of study designed to improve the academic achievement of students performing below grade level. These technologies are employed to facilitate a course of remedial instruction designed to assist students in improving their performance to grade level standards.
Integrating technology into a course of academic remediation requires a commitment to selecting and procuring tools appropriate to addressing clearly identified needs; providing classroom personnel with adequate training to use these tools effectively; providing a reliable and robust technical infrastructure; and assessing the tools effectiveness on an on-going basis.
Through this request for proposals, the Tower Foundation seeks to assist schools and school districts in implementing technology-based academic remediation programs for students in grades K-8. Specifically, the Tower Foundation seeks to provide schools and school districts with the technology resources and training required to provide enhanced remedial education services to students who are performing below grade level in core academic subjects (including, but not limited to, English language arts and mathematics).
