Abstract

Technology inclusion in the classroom has been shown to support student engagement and acts as a means of incorporating reading in a way that can benefit and interest students. How this shows itself in rural Alaskan communities, and specifically how it balances with cultural, placebased curriculum, however, has gone widely unnoted. Limited research has been performed regarding technology inclusion in rural Alaska and most information pertains to wireless communications, as specified in published news articles. The intention of this project is to help find connections between Alaskan cultural standards and the utilization of technology in the classroom by creating a set of place-based computer science lessons. An additional component of this project is to also enhance student math and ELA understanding, as evidenced in previous literature and studies.
