With communication technology and the use of mentors, the Disabilities, Opportunities, Inter-networking, and Technology (DO-IT) program builds a communication network for disabled high school students who would otherwise remain isolated and segregated. The network opens these students to new possibilities in science, mathematics, and engineering and helps sustain them through their high school and college academic experiences. Another strength is the program's emphasis on developing college faculty awareness of how the barriers and challenges for the disabled can be overcome, contributing to a more positive and diverse learning environment. DO-IT has positively altered the educational infrastructure by creating a self-sustaining community, free from spatial constraints and creatively links new isolated populations such as the Seattle Children's Hospital to its communication network. The strengths of the nominee include: . Innovative, strong and working. . Ninety percent of the participants have graduated from high school and are pursuing post-secondary degrees. . Showcased in President's Summit for America's Future. In summary, this nomination for the Presidential Awards for Excellence in Science, Mathematics, and Engineering Mentoring is outstanding. The program is innovative and timely. The total number of participants is not large but the level of quality is high.

借助通信技术和指导者的使用，残疾，机会，网络间和技术（DO-IT）计划为残疾高中生建立了通信网络，否则他们将保持孤立和隔离。 该网络为这些学生开放了科学，数学和工程学的新可能性，并通过高中和大学的学术经验来帮助他们维持他们。 另一个优势是该计划的重点是发展大学教师对如何克服残疾人的障碍和挑战的认识，从而有助于更积极和多样化的学习环境。 DO-通过创建一个自我维持的社区，不受空间约束，并创造性地将新的孤立人群（例如西雅图儿童医院）与其通信网络联系起来，从而积极改变了教育基础设施。 提名人的优势包括：。 创新，强大而工作。 。 90％的参与者已从高中毕业，并正在攻读博学后学位。 。 在总统的峰会上展示了美国的未来。 总而言之，这项提名卓越科学，数学和工程指导的总统奖提名。 该计划是创新的，及时的。 参与者的总数不大，但质量水平很高。
