Conclusion/Summary
This tutorial is an immediate need for Monarch High School
and it is clearly aligned with the new National Standards for
teacher effectiveness. It is a wonderful example of how to
help teachers reach his or her goals in technology efficiency,
and designed to give teachers the tools and knowledge they
need for integrating technology in the classroom.
Because technology training cannot be learned in a day. It is
the goal of Monarch’s teacher leaders to provide more
training on how to effectively integrate technology in the
classroom.
Text/Audio Narration: The degree of the measurement will be implemented by having 100 %
participation from teachers. Each teacher will present his or her PowerPoint
to their observing administrator as part of their portfolio process for teacher effectiveness. Because training can not take place in a day, Monarch High teacher leaders will
continue to provide technology training for teacher effectiveness. This is the end of the first session for Power point training. Microsoft office has other examples that can be
used for your own exploration. Simply use this link provided to you on slide 11. This tutorial will be shared with the staff in the Google drive and has meet the needs of
