Current Awareness is a monthly bibliography
of the most recent educational literature from an extensive collection of
journals. This service is provided to you by the Division of Instructional
Technology, North Carolina Department of Public Instruction in partnership
with The Landmark Project.
Current Awareness has identified over 200
education and technology related topics of interest to educators. Each month
staff with the Department's Education Information Center reviews newly arived
journals and other materials, matching articles with education and technology
topics. These topics are linked to short citations for the articles so that
educators can easily find the information on their topic of interest.
As you find citations that interest you,
contact either your school system's professional library or local community
college/university library for the full text of the article.

History |
The Current Awareness Program was
instituted nearly ten years ago by the by forward thinking members of the
Division of Instructional Technology at the North Carolina Department of
Public Instruction. It was a paper-based service that helped keep agency
employees abreast of issues related to their jobs and services. With the
establishment of the Department's web site, The InfoWeb, this service was
extended to the Internet for use by North Carolina Educators.
As a result of downsizing, the Current
Awareness web page was not updated after July, 1995. A proposal from The
Landmark Project in January of the next year brought the project back to
life with a partnership between the Division of Instructional Technology
and The Landmark Project. Education Information Center staff continues to
catalog journal articles and papers and forwards the computer files to The
Landmark Project where the data is coded and installed on the Web, both on
the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction's InfoWeb, and on Landmarks
for Schools, an education service of The Landmark Project.
