Electronic Field Trips Selection Process
How Teacher Selection will be made:
The Foundation will utilize the following criteria in determining subscription winners:
- Priority will be given to teachers who have attended the Colonial
Williamsburg Teacher Institute and who are willing to act as peer
facilitators at their respective sites.
- Applicants also must show that they are currently teaching early American history between fifth and eighth-grade levels. In the case when both criteria are met, grants will be awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.
A subscription awarded to a single teacher will allow access of the program to all early American history teachers at that site. For example, at a school with four fifth-grade classes, one subscription can positively impact the professional growth of several teachers and the learning environment of more than 100 students.
We at the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence believe the Electronic
Field Trips Scholarship Program offers exciting new learning opportunities
for both teachers and students while integrating an innovative curriculum
with the excitement of achieving a new level of technological proficiency.
