The Internet Project at Monta Vista

The Internet Project at Monta Vista

Monta Vista has been involved in using Internet since 1992, when NASA established the original pilot project. Since then, awareness of the Internet has grown to the point where we now have a class exclusively devoted to it with around 25 students involved. Using a wide variety of resources and applications, such as mail, telnet, ftp, Usenet, irc, gopher, archie, and www, students and staff are discovering how to integrate the Net into the high school academic curriculum.

On January 12, 1994, US Vice President Al Gore visited our school to see our activities on the Internet. Since that time, numerous visitors have come to see our own "information superhighway" unfold and take root in our high school.

As time goes on, the Internet and its role in high school education is poised to grow exponentially, and more Monta Vista teachers in all departments are learning ways to use the Internet in their instructional plans.
