Strategic Enterprises and the national standards and benchmarks for
science, mathematics and technology.
- Sustain
the change process by mentoring workshop participants and collaborating
with NOVA partner institutions (grant recipients).

the collaboration among the NOVA partner institutions by providing a
forum to exchange innovative ideas for change in preservice education.
