The Chicago Alliance for Minority Participation is a Partnership of Chicago Area Universities and Institutions with The National Science Foundation. The purpose of the Alliance is to increase the participation of traditionally underrepresentated groups in science, engineering, and math (SEM) disciplines. IIT's Educational Technology Center is working with Chicago State University to establish a Technology Center at CSU. Quizzing is now taking place at CSU with questions residing on IIT's science questions database. Interactive tutoring is also in place and being used extenstively. Tutors at IIT's ETC interact and answer questions posed by CSU student sitting in the CSU Center. The distance learning occurs via a broad band modem using a dedicated leased line.
