Implement a perpetual change process designed to assure University of Minnesota Morris preservice teacher candidates are prepared to effectively utilize current technology in instruction to improve student learning and achievement.
P-16 Educators in Minnesota and International consortium schools where University of Minnesota Morris students are placed, participate in the education of prospective teachers, implementing curricular revision that capitalizes on the resources and processes made available through new technologies to foster students' questioning, collaborative investigation, and decision-making skills, and the ability to apply new knowledge, while using authentic assessment of learning in their instruction.
University of Minnesota Morris preservice teacher candidates actively use appropriate and effective applications of current IT tools throughout their collegiate degree program, P-12 practicum, and student teaching placements in Minnesota and International schools including the *GST and ELTAP programs.
Prospective and beginning P-12 teachers effectively utilize current and appropriate IT tools in their instruction of P-12 students demonstrating achievement of technology competencies.
Beginning P-12 teachers, through their first years of teaching are supported through comprehensive mentoring and IT based induction processes to assure their effectiveness as educators and ability to utilize appropriate and effective applications of current IT tools in teaching their students.
Collaboration among consortium partner educational institutions and public and private for profit and non-profit agencies is strengthened through accomplishment of mutual goals and equitable sharing and use of resources.
A permanent assessment, evaluation, feedback, and dissemination process is implemented that assures instructional approaches are appropriate, that graduates utilize them in P-12 instruction, and that current applications of IT are effectively modeled and disseminated.

*ELTAP refers to English Language Teaching Assistant Program Program at the University of Minnesota Morris.
