Why should you be interested in Project Lead The
Way? Because we have developed a hands-on, project
based approach to learning that better prepares students for
the rigors of college. Our program incorporates math, science,
English, and technology skills needed for success.
Our professional development program will also help to improve
your skills as a teacher and provide you with a class that
students come to early, leave late and truly enjoy.

If you're thinking of joining PLTW or are implementing a new
course, this document is designed to help you gather information
about what equipment you currently have and/or may need for
your classroom. (MS Word .doc)
Graduate Credit For Teachers During Summer Training:
Teachers enrolled in Project Lead The Way courses during the
Summer Training Institutes at Rochester Institute of Technology
and National Affiliate Training Centers may earn graduate
credit for these courses.
Because the PLTW courses parallel existing National Affiliate
courses, teachers are required to demonstrate they have met
the standards of the college course through the completion
of a portfolio, a written examination, and/or a paper, depending
on the specific requirements for each graduate college course.
Teachers interested in college credit will have the program
requirements explained at the beginning of the Summer Training
Institute. At that time, teachers will complete an application,
complete the additional requirements for receiving credit,
and will pay tuition, which may vary depending on the training
institute.
For more information, check out the National PLTW site for
the 2004
summer details.
