The document outlines the roles and responsibilities of various positions related to instructional technology in a school district. It describes how the Assistant Superintendent of Instructional Services approves software and programs, while the Administrator Officer of Technology Information researches and selects district-approved options. Issues are escalated from C-Tech teachers to the Coordinator of Informational Technology to Technical Services as needed. The principal ensures teachers have necessary equipment and resources, while teachers educate students and provide feedback on needs.

The principal is responsible for making sure the teachers have the equipment and tools
necessary to do their job. The principal will budget what is needed on campus. They
will make sure all inventory is checked. The teachers need to have access to all the
resources. Teachers also need to be knowledgeable of the copy write laws. The
principals go to people are the assistant principals, librarians, and department heads.
The teachers will tell the department heads what is needed for their teachers to be
successful. The librarians and assistant principals must be aware of what resources are
available on campus. They need to keep track of inventory. One teacher might need
something and it might already be somewhere on campus. Principals need to have a
process and steps to follow for equipment to be ordered. Many times teachers go to
department heads, department heads go to assistant principals who then go to the
principal.
A team needs to be developed so that you will have people from various backgrounds.
You need to go to the administration and see who they suggest to be on the Integration
of Technology team. The team needs to consist of administrators, department heads,
librarians, and other teachers. The next step would be to gather data from student
assessments such as: PEIMS, TAKS, Benchmarks, CoGAT, and AEIS data. The team
needs to evaluate school’s scores and see what needs to be improved the most. Then

2. those outcomes can be compared to other schools that have different technology on
their campus and see if it is benefiting them. The team needs to evaluate and determine
what training needs to take place. Training needs to be developed to help meet the
needs of the teachers. Programs need to be developed to help teachers get the material
across to the students. The main goal to focus on is the students, and improving their
knowledge. Reassessment will occur on the next exam the students have to take.
Adjustments will be made accordingly where it is needed.
Professional Development- This is for the entire staff to become knowledgeable of
different ways to integrate technology.
Items to address:
Staff will look over data from all sources to see what ways technology can be integrated
into the classroom to connect learning through core subjects and elective courses.
*What is a Wiki? (5-10 minutes)
The wikispaces works as a meeting spot for an online learning community. It lets the
community members discuss issues and post new ideas to each other. In the wikispace
you can set up many different pages where your online community can edit and navigate
through with you. It is a good idea to have something like a wikispace because it lets
you get your thoughts together within a group and you can do it at your own time and not
have to actually meet all at the same time. It allows people to post their opinions and
they may have helpful ideas to what made it successful for their classes.
*How to set up a Wiki and communicate (5-10 minutes)
Go to: http://www.wikispaces.com. This allows teachers to work together and be able to
communicate technology ideas for the classroom
*What is a Moodle? (5-10 minutes)
Check out https://elearn.mesquiteisd.org/login/index.php. It is a course that provides
guidance and integration ideas to teachers who are just starting out as well as those who
have a well developed site. Teachers can check out their Moodle site frequently
throughout the year for new ideas to integrate in the classroom. A Moodle is a way for
departments or grade levels to assess student knowledge through technology.
Teachers can post quizzes, tests, and resources for students to access.
The STaR showed that our greatest weakness was Teaching & Learning and Educator
Preparation & Development. I would have to agree with this being my school’s
weakness. We do not have enough training before the year begins on the technology
components and standards that we are expected to teach. It is difficult for us to use the
technology if we don’t have the knowledge to do so. I would plan to train teachers in
various technology applications so they can use these throughout the year.
Our purpose: To prove to our curriculum development committee the importance of
integrating technology into the math and science curriculum.
Objective: To develop a math and science curriculum where students can learn to

3. problem solve using technology.
Grade level: 9-12
Facilitator's name: Chris Anderson
Community members: Math/Science Department with corresponding elective teachers
Activities:
1) Develop goals for the meeting- Make sure everyone is focused on what we want to
know after we complete the meeting.
*Each member will state a goal and post on the bulletin board. Just give a brief
description of your goal.
*Estimated Time for this activity will be 10 minutes in all, about 2 minutes per member.
2) Attention getter- Show student participation and lower discipline problems when
students are engaged in lessons where
technology is being used to problem solve.
*Watch short video through Youtube to give teachers an understanding of how
technology impacts the classroom.
*Estimated time for this activity will be 7-12 minutes.
3) Gather ideas from members- To give a few examples of technology lessons that could
be included in the integration.
*Members will give a brief description of their activity that could be included in the new
integrated math or science curriculum.
*Estimated time for this activity is 10-15 minutes in all, 2-3 minutes per member.
4) Reflection/Closure- To make sure that the curriculum development committee knows
what changes we want to see made and answer questions that the committee may still
have.
*Hand out 4 note cards to each curriculum development committee member and have
them write down on one card what they learned, on another what they think will be
successful, what they still need want to know, and on the last card how could they use is
this in their classroom.
*Pick up all note cards and discuss what they still need to know.
*Estimated time for this overall activity will be 15 minutes
You can use this for recommendations for technology.
