There is hereby created the Kentucky data research initiative, a partnership
between elementary and secondary schools and postsecondary education
research institutions to maximize research capabilities through computer
resources. The initiative shall be jointly facilitated by the Kentucky Department
of Education and the Council on Postsecondary Education.
The purposes of the data research initiative are to expand the availability of
computing resources not available at the research institutions at a relatively low
cost, to do education outreach to students and teachers in Kentucky's K-12
system, to expand the research institutions' presence throughout the state, and
to maximize the use of computer assets that have already been purchased in
K-12 systems but are often underused.
By December 1, 2005, the commissioner of the Department of Education and
the president of the Council on Postsecondary Education shall convene
appropriate postsecondary education and elementary and secondary
educators and administrators to determine how this initiative might be
developed, funded, and utilized to enhance research capabilities in the
sciences and health-related fields or other appropriate fields of research.
