Week 4 Assignment, Part 2: Professional Development Planning
Using the campus and district improvement plans, and any suggested technology
improvements, develop professional development activities that include the following:
• Reference analysis and lessons learned about the technology needs from the Week 3
report;
• Addresses professional development designed to improve the gathering, analysis and use
of data from a variety of sources;
• Includes professional development to improve decision making in the integration of
technology with instructional and organizational leadership.
Every school campus should be committed to providing quality training in technology and
curriculum integration for teachers and staff. Courses ranging from basic word processing to
courses focused exclusively on integrating technology tools into curriculum areas are offered at
the campus and district level. Curriculum coordinators, with assistance from the Instructional
Technology staff, develop and provide training for specific software and technology tools with a
focus on district goals and needs, integration of technology, and priority educational objectives
(TEKS). The district should offer professional development opportunities throughout the year.
A key component to any successful technology plan is the continued professional development
opportunities available to teachers and administrators. Using the SBEC standards for teachers
as a guide, every school campus must be committed to providing teachers with the skills
needed to use technology to enhance instructional practices and acquire and analyze student
data. Administrators have the role of creating a vision for integrating technology at their
campuses and providing the leadership to accomplish the vision. Through the use of the
national ISTE’s National Education Technology Standards for School Administrators, The Texas
STarR Chart, and the Texas Long Range Plan for Technology, professional development
opportunities will be provided to help administrators realize their role in the implementation of
technology.
At the district level, the Instructional Technology department must have designed training to
facilitate the district’s goal of promoting flexible grouping (e.g., small group, large group, peer
tutoring, cooperative learning groups, homogeneous grouping, and heterogeneous mixing) so
that classrooms become more student-centered. Professional development utilizing small group
instruction as learning centers is focused on accommodating the needs of all learners and
includes the use of technology tools to achieve priority educational objectives (TEKS).
Teachers, administrators, and media specialists participate in district-wide training sessions in
an effort to bridge the gap between theory and practice.
The Instructional Technology department also assists teachers and students through the
following:
o Working with campuses to develop a long-range plan for technology implementation;
o Meeting with a teacher or teams of teachers to determine technology goals and
technology training objectives;
o Setting timelines for completion of goals and training;
o Designing teacher and student activities;
Page 9 – Revised October 2009
10. EDLD 5352 Instructional Leadership: The Technology Link
o Teaching and co-teaching with teachers; and delivering “just-in-time” training to
students and teachers.
As teachers participate in professional development opportunities, they are shown ways to
utilize the Classroom Technology Workstation (CTW) located in each instructional area. The
CTW includes a large multimedia cart, 27” TV or projector, computer, and printer. Teachers use
the CTW with students to integrate activities developed through district professional
development and for personal productivity purpose such as electronic grades. The CTW can
also be used by teachers and students as a demonstration tool.
At the campus level, each elementary and secondary campus should have a teacher who
serves as the Technology Liaison. The Technology Liaison provides coordination and
communication functions to integrate the district-level and campus-level activities and assists
with the necessary training for the campus staff. Technology Liaisons attend meetings at the
district level, at which “best practices” are shared and training is conducted. In addition to
meetings, the Technology Liaisons participate in an annual summer Technology Camp, the
focus of which is to develop further the technology and curriculum integration skills of the
Technology Liaisons.
A full-time Technology Assistant provides hardware and limited software support for each
secondary campus. A Technology Assistant makes scheduled service visits twice each week to
the elementary campuses. All Technology Assistants are trained at the district level on a semi-
monthly basis. This training includes topics such as district policies and procedures for
technology, network support, personal computer support, printer and other peripheral support,
inventory control, and general trouble-shooting.
Week 4 Assignment, Part 3: Evaluation Planning for Action Plan
The technology action plan integrating instructional an organizational leadership must include
evaluation components that provide measurable outcomes designed to address the following:
• Uses data and other analysis from the Week 3 report, including using the campus and
district improvement plans, and local or state technology plans;
• Provides assessments and/or monitoring reports measuring professional development
designed to use technology to improve the gathering, analysis and use of data from a
variety of sources;
• Provides assessments and/or monitoring evaluating professional development to improve
decision making in the integration of technology with instructional and organizational
leadership.

Technology Action Plan
Introduction
This plan is based on the need for technology to support the delivery of the foundation Texas
Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and to further supplement the instructional experience
of students with access to technology as suggested by the Texas Education Agency (TEA).
To assist districts in technology planning, TEA developed the School Technology and
Readiness Chart (STaR) and the state’s Long Range Plan for Technology (LRPT). From these
documents, along with the TEKS, this Action Plan addresses the major components of
successful technology implementation.
Vision and Beliefs
Using the TEKS, the STaR Chart, and the Texas Long Range Plan for Technology as guiding
documents, a vision was established which states: “As an integral part of the teaching/learning
process, instructional technology will facilitate students’ active learning and prepare them to
meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world.”
The Vision Statement is based on the following Belief Statements:
• Technology facilitates the acquisition of the characteristics of a “digital native”.
• Technology assists students in posing problems, conducting critical inquiry, and
developing informed insight in order to become effective communicators in a global
community.
• Technology is a tool that provides students an opportunity to examine and evaluate
ideas, images, and concepts from different perspectives.
• Technology may be used to address the learning needs of all students in a variety of
flexible grouping arrangements that facilitate student-centered learning.
• Technology is one of many effective tools, which allows teachers and students to be
partners in the learning process.
• Technology can provide access to both historical and current resources that would not
otherwise be available in the classroom.
• Technology and student needs are constantly changing, therefore, demanding flexibility
in long-range planning.
• Decisions to invest in instructional technology must reflect consideration of efficiency,
effectiveness, and financial resources.
• Required staff development is critical if technology applications are to be effectively
