Editor's Notes
* Insert a title that reflects the needs of your audience. Suggested titles include: Success for All Students; Achieving High Standards; Learning with Technology; or Expanded Learning Through Technology. * Begin your presentation by relating a story – from districts or schools that are familiar to you or drawing from EDvancenet technology stories – that provides a &quot;snapshot&quot; of a learning experience expanded and enhanced by technology use. Such a snapshot could include: • a description of the activity • the learning goals • the technologies used • how the students were involved * Describe the role of policymakers and school leaders in supporting the learning experience you describe by, for example, developing administrative support, engaging stakeholders, and advocating for professional development. BE AWARE of the questions and concerns typically in the minds of policymakers and school leaders. Some of these include (a) how they will fund the program, (b) how to know if a program will really make a difference, (c) what it will cost, (d) how to address equity issues, (e) how to involve the community and have a program that reflects its input, and/or (f) how much to comfortably rely on others for necessary technical information.
