iCampus: iCampus: Microsoft goals

From the start, Microsoft Research has seen the iCampus project as an important step in establishing Microsoft as a leading technology partner for higher education.
Specifically, the iCampus alliance creates a framework for researchers from MIT and Microsoft to:
Create new interactive learning models for project based science, mathematics and educational technology learning;
Build tools that define the cutting edge of excellence in teaching, with a focus on creating experiential learning environments;
Publish educationally innovative content for wide-scale distribution; and
Develop educational utilities—Web services for learning—that assist in assessment, administration and content management.
