CITERA

Comprehensive Information Technology Education in Rural Appalachia (CITERA) is a project sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) through the Information Technology Experience for Students and Teachers (ITest) initiative. CITERA is designed to introduce students and teachers to careers and educational pathways in Information Technology (IT).

The CITERA project is a partnership between The EdVenture Group, West Virginia High Technology Consortium Foundation, Fairmont State College, West Virginia University and 7th through 9th grade students and teachers.

The EdVenture Group’s role includes curriculum development, teacher and student training, research and evaluation, as well as web design and video creation and editing. The EdVenture Group also plays a key role in the recruitment of teachers and students.

The EdVenture Group was part of a cohort accepted to present project content at AERA (American Educational Research Association) in San Francisco during the Spring of 2006 and New York City during the Spring of 2008.
