A Moveable feast is a one-week summer institute organized
by the Office of Educational Technology at the University of Illinois. This
project-based technology institute is tailored to meet the needs of training
teachers and administrators in technology and emphasizes ways to integrate
technology in conjunction with Illinois Engaged Learning standards.
Preparing for its 12th year, A Moveable Feast has grown from 3
sites and less than 150 participants in 1998 to over 475 participants at 7 sites
throughout the state during the summer of 2005. For the summer of 2008, the
Moveable Feast is undergoing curriculum reconstruction in collaboration with
Bloomington Public Schools District 87 and
the University of Illinois Office of Educational Technology.
As data becomes an integral part driving instructional decisions, technology
becomes an essential tool for making this possible. The Moveable Feast is right
there with the training educators need and want.
