The Brecksville-Broadview Heights schools would like to support and encourage the use of technology among teachers and students to further district goals, enhance the educational experience for our students, and better prepare them for life in the 21st century. To this end, the district is making up to $40,000 available in the spring of 2008 for teacher-initiated technology projects that integrate technology into the educational processes of teaching and learning by helping to meet the following goals:
- Support the teaching and learning of Ohio's Technology Academic Content Standards
- Promote the acquisition of 21st century skills among our students. These skills include:
- An improved knowledge of global cultures and societies.
- Critical thinking, problem solving skills, and the ability to innovate.

- The ability to work with others as a team.
