布莱克山州立大学（BHSU）和西达科他州技术学院（WDTI）已经创建了一个包括学区和行业合作伙伴的联盟，以开发，提供，改进和评估基于网络的远程教育模型，用于提供基础电子课程。该项目旨在为六个学区的大三和大四学生改善技术教学、经验和机会。该项目的主要内容包括：现场教师培训课程的内容和提供;在参与的高中实施远程教育;教师和工业伙伴为参与者提供专业和技术支持;工业伙伴为学生提供技术经验，所有伙伴对该方案进行评估;在地方、州和国家各级宣传该项目;和/或信用在BHSU或WDTI为拟议的中学课程工作。

Black Hills State University (BHSU) and Western Dakota Technical Institute (WDTI) have created a consortium including school districts and industrial partners to develop, deliver, refine and evaluate a network-based distance education model for the delivery of basic electronics curriculum. This project is designed to improve technology instruction, experiences and opportunities for juniors and seniors in six school districts. Key elements of the project include on-site teacher training course content and delivery; the implementation of distance education at participating high schools; professional and technical support for participants provided by faculty and industrial partners; technical experiences for students provided by industrial partners, evaluation of the program by all partners; dissemination about the project at the local, state and national levels; and/or credit at BHSU or WDTI for the proposed secondary course work.
