ACERs: Here is the followup of the program ACE helped set up last summer, Teachers and agency partnership to create interactive learning modules. Please checkout the www.ed.gov/free (top of the center column.) Thanks to Dept of Education for continuing to support this program. (I'll be out of town until January 4, 1999.) Happy Holidays! Glynis THE CORRECT DEADLINE for applications is March 3, 1999 (not 1998). I apologize for this mistake (below). Have great holidays! Kirk Winters U.S. Department of Education ______________________________ Forward Header __________________________________ Subject: Final "Invitation" Available (FREE) Author: Kirk Winters <[log in to unmask]> at Internet Date: 12/18/98 5:23 PM THE FINAL "Invitation to Federal Agencies & Federal Organizations to Submit Proposals to Develop Internet-Based Learning Modules & Communities" is now available online. It is anticipated that 2 applicants will be selected for funding. As mentioned in the message last week, this Invitation is much the same as the previous one (March 1998), with one major difference: The method of payment is more clearly defined. Specifically, in order to be selected, an agency must be able to pay teachers up front out of its own funds & then be reimbursed by GSA. If your agency is interesting in applying, you can find the Invitation & application form on the FREE site: http:www.ed.gov/free Please feel free to forward this message to any colleague who may be interested. Questions are welcome. Have great holidays! Kirk Winters & Peter Kickbush U.S. Department of Education [log in to unmask] (202) 401-3540
