Plan and Deliver - Ken Brown, techLearning
You've worked diligently to gather support for that big tech initiative from the employees, public, and patrons of your district. You've secured the funding required for the technologies described within the local district technology plan. The tech has been bid upon, purchased, and is on its way. Now comes the hard part—actually getting staff and students to learn and to use it. The time has come to craft a technology professional development plan. Your district has no doubt performed school improvement processes before, but possibly not where technology was the primary focus. This sort of plan requires special aspects—assessing the technology literacy, usage, and attitudes of the faculty; designing individual educational technology plans for each faculty member; developing and delivering technology professional development programs; and assisting faculty in integrating it into the curricula. By using the next three steps as a guide, that technology will not only be in place but also will get put to good use.
