CaseNET is a set of courses delivered to college and university students, inservice teachers, teachers' aides, and school administrators, using the Internet (World Wide Web, video conference, discussion groups, and electronic mail), videotape, and print materials. Faculty use case methods—similar to instructional approaches used in business, law and medicine—to bridge educational theory and real-life practice in schools.
ATG provided the technology to drive the second iteration of the project, CASENET II. CASENET II features improved data structuring, an effective user interface, and site management tools. This project has allowed ITC to gain insight into the design of Inegrated Learning Environments (ILEs), knowledge that will only become more apposite to the University's mission as it progresses into the future.
The CASENET project resulted in a commercial spin-off out of the Curry School of Education: caseNEX.
