2. Program started three years ago with six
high school teachers via a competitive grant
program.
Teachers received an initial 32 hours of
staff development training over the course
of a year.
The program has expanded in four phases
to 44 teachers in grades seven through 12.
Upon completion of first 16 hours of
training, teachers received their equipment.

8. Entry Level:
Teachers typically learn the
fundamental aspects of using new
technology, including the basics of
configuring hardware and software.
9. Adoption Level:
Teachers concern themselves with
ways to use the technology to support
traditional instruction.
10. Adaptation Level:
Teachers integrate technology into
existing classroom activities. The
emphasis is productivity. Students use
word processors, databases, and some
graphics programs to create familiar
products of instruction.
11. Appropriation:
Teachers begin to develop new approaches to
teaching and learning that make the most of
the technology available to them. A teacher's
mastery and skill level has developed to allow
the creation of new learning activities not
possible without the technology.
12. Innovation:
Teachers no longer try to adapt instruction to
technology but adjust their fundamental
perceptions of instruction. Teachers who
reach this stage reflect on the actual craft of
teaching, and their fundamental teaching
approach may shift. (Dwyer, Ringstaff, and
Sandholtz, 1991)

26. On November 17, 2009, twenty-one
Classroom of the Future teachers
completed an open-ended response
survey indicating what they like most
and least about the Classroom of the
Future program.
27. “It has been awesome to get
students on computers and
connect real life applications
to class material.”
28. “Students have improved their
ability to interact with both the
spoken word and written word. I
am moving out of the front of the
classroom to helping students be
the active participates in their
learning.”
29. “[What I like best is] my ability to
reflect and rethink my practice in
the classroom. My lessons have
been richer by integrating online
digital content.”
30. “Being able to empower
students with technology tools
that give them options to
explore the world, communicate
with the world, and discover
their own interests and
passions.”

Original research: Horde, et.al. 1987, Concern-Based Adoption Model
Also worth noting is Marzano’s current research related to the use of interactive white boards in the classrooms:

To determine teacher or student intelligences, go to http://www.businessballs.com/howardgardnermultipleintelligences.htm and choose “free Multiple Intelligences test (based on Howard Gardner's model) - in MSExcel self-calculating format”
It is worth noting that identifying what students need to know and determining how we will assess for that knowledge does not automatically lead to implementation activities that require the use of technology.
