What are the biggest challenges in your day-to-day life and how do you manage them? Staying focused on the “big picture’ is the biggest daily challenge. There are a great many distractions in educational technology such as technical issues, new technologies, curriculum changes, administrator concerns, staff and student training, federal and state guidelines, Internet safety and more. I find planning to be the best way to manage them all. We try to plan with a variety of people. I plan with my staff weekly, administrators monthly, our site-based team bi-annually. My staff and I attend conferences and monthly meetings with a tri-county technology consortium. My staff and I also attend regular roundtable meetings at our educational service center which is an arm of the Texas Education Agency. This allows us to stay up-to-date with county, regional, state and national technology innovations, challenges and information.
