Welcome!
The Information Technology Academy for
Teachers (ITAT) is composed of select teams of mathematic
teachers, science teachers, and guidance counselors who
participate in a two-week non-residential summer program.
The purpose is to broaden teachers’
perspectives on IT tools in biomechanics, robotics, solid
modeling, Excel, and leadership. The program also provides
experiences that help develop inquiry-based science and
mathematics lessons that stimulate students’ interests in
science, engineering, and technology.

Special Activities
Teachers will also go on a special field
trips, which will change the usual routine.
Living Arrangements
Prior to attendance teachers will be given
the option to commute or stay in Greenville, NC. Look for
more information to be communicated directly to your
administrator.
Dining Facilities
Teachers will be given meal cards for
breakfast and lunch which will enable them to eat all their
meals in ECU dining facilities. More specific information
will post in late spring.
Transportation
Teachers will need to make their own
arrangements to arrive and depart from the academy. Parking
passes will be mailed to participants prior to the start of
the academy. Once at ECU, however, they will have access to
ECU Transit buses when going far distances on campus or on
field trips. At other times, they will walk to class and
activities.
What to Bring
Teachers will be provided with a thumb drive,
notebook and necessary curriculum. Any additional materials
should be brought by the participant.
