Abstract | Educational research has documented that technology can enhance student acquisition of discrete skills through drill and practice. This document presents case-study profiles from a study that examined whether technology could provide significant support for constructivist, project-based, teaching and learning approaches. The study also identified the elements necessary for the effective implementation of technology within an educational reform context. Data were derived from case studies that were conducted at nine sites whose programs emphasized education reform and provided authentic activities for students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. The sites, 8 individual schools and 1 network of 462 schools, were selected on the basis of the following criteria: (1) the strength of the site's education reform agenda over technological use for its own sake; (2) the involvement of large numbers of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, representing a variety of cultures, ethnic groups, and linguistic experiences; and (3) the use of network and other distance-learning technologies.
