● Plan for remaining current
● Resources utilized
3. Hardware Available

for teachers at our school?
● Computers
● iPads
● Activboards
● ActivExpressions Student Response “Eggs”
● Printers
● Copy machines
● CD Players
4. Software Available

5. School District Technology Vision
Our Vision...
The Instructional Technology Department supports and enhances teaching
and learning in all subject areas to prepare students for college and career
success in the global community. We encourage transformative uses of
technology that promote best teaching practices in accordance with the SVSD
Instructional Framework and Common Core State Standards. Ultimately, we
believe the effective use of technology will increase student engagement,
inspire student learning and facilitate parental involvement. We endeavor to
promote a culture of lifelong learning where students and staff use digital
tools for communicating, collaborating, thinking critically, and creating.
6. SVSD Technology Department Goals
To reach the goals outlined in our vision, we will:
• Promote and support online learning.
• Provide access to high quality digital content.
• Maintain safe online environments.
• Strive for equity in digital access.
• Offer ongoing professional development.
• Facilitate access to student data.
• Deploy relevant, innovative technologies.
• Refresh infrastructure and communication systems.
• Deliver timely tech support.
7. Classroom Integration
How is this integrated into the classroom?
The various hardware and software are integrated into the classroom all day
everyday. For example, I took professional development courses this Summer
by signing up on “PD Place” and was able to learn about my upcoming
students by viewing their assessment information on the “Data Dashboard”
program. When students are gone for the day I can use my Microsoft Outlook
to check my email, Microsoft Office Programs to create lessons, online
curricula to prepare, and printers to print necessary papers. When students
arrive in the morning their goal will be on the Activboard, they may later be
seen doing word work on the iPad, ActivExpression eggs can give all kids a
voice to respond, and computers give students an opportunity to practice skills
a bit more independently. These implementations and more are ways that
many teachers integrate technology into the classroom.
8. Skills Needed
What are the skills you will need to integrate this technology?
● How to create accounts for the various software and
hardware
● How to navigate pages in each software program
● How to turn hardware devices on, what their function is, and
how to turn them off
● How to save information created on all hardware and
software
● How to explain various processes in simplified terms for
students
9. How to Become Proficient
What can you do to become proficient with the
available technology?
In February 2006, voters approved a 4 million dollar, four year
technology levy. Additionally, in February 2010, voters approved a 9.8
million dollar, four year replacement technology levy. This money has
helped create the opportunity for each employee to choose a
technology pathway, attend courses, receive coaching, and
collaborate. Prioritizing time to explore on your own and work with
colleagues will lead to greater proficiency.
10. Plan for Remaining Current
What can you do to remain current on
technology trends and emerging issues?
● Attend technology courses
● Meet with colleagues regularly
● Choose to read scholarly technology education articles
● Stay in-tune with news related to technological progress
● Practice frequently
