    Types of Projects
    Grants were five-year development and demonstration projects. Each consortium developed a plan
    to begin start-up activities in year one, including initial trials of new learning content and sustained
    professional development for teachers. Years two and three were devoted to refinement and expan-
    sion of the new applications of technology. Years four and five supported systemwide adoptions that
    could become self-sustaining after the fifth year.
