  4. Vision:Educational technology will allow interactiveclassrooms to enhance curriculum and engage the students. The use of Web 2.0 toolswill increase student interest and success. Bridge City ISD will provide a robust infrastructure for students to connect and use these tools to access, analyze and evaluate information as well as work to solve problems and communicate in an information driven world. BRIDGE CITY ISD Technology Plan: 2010 – 2013

  5. Mission:All classrooms will include aninteractive whiteboard, data projector, document camera, sound system and Internet connected student and teacher computers. Students will use all educational technology tools to access, analyze, evaluate and communicate information. With these skills, Bridge City ISD students will realize their potential to be competitive and succeed in a global society. BRIDGE CITY ISD Technology Plan: 2010 – 2013

  6. VISION 2020 Texas Long Range Plan for Technology Teaching and Learning Students can expect higher performance and deeper engagement in academic, real world endeavors by accessing digital tools and resources available twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week (24/7) appropriate to individual strengths, needs, and learning styles. Students know they will be prepared to thrive in a global workforce with changing economic implications. Leadership, Administration and Instructional Support Parents can expect not only to participate more directly in their children’s education but also to improve their own knowledge as parents and citizens. Communications increase as parents have 24/7 access to learning resources and student information such as achievement, attendance, and discipline. Educator Preparation and Development Educators can expect to access and use student information on demand in order to individualize instruction. The use of digital tools and resources and 24/7 professional development opportunities transform the educators’ role in the educational process. Increased communication will enhance collaboration between school, home, and community. Infrastructure for Technology Community and school board members can expect more effective and efficient use of fiscal resources and human capital. Increased communication and participation in the educational decision-making process is enhanced through the use of anytime, anywhere digital tools and resources. http://ritter.tea.state.tx.us/technology/lrpt/LrptBrochure.pdf

  7. National Educational Technology Plan The U.S. Department of Education is developing a new National Educational Technology Plan to provide a vision for how information and communication technologies can help transform American education. The plan will provide a set of concrete goals that can inform state and local educational technology plans as well as inspire research, development, and innovation. A draft plan is expected in early 2010. https://edtechfuture.org/

  8. Four Focus Areas for Educational Transformation

  9. Learning:Enabling unprecedented access to high-quality learning experiences. Everyone, including English Language Learners and students with disabilities, should have increased access to meaningful, well designed and readily available learning experiences, throughout their lives. https://edtechfuture.org/

  10. GOAL 1: Teachers and students will access technology as a tool to achieve academic standards and success developing studentswho are capable of assuming productive roles in a global society. • Teachers will utilize and integrate technology into all aspects of curriculum to improve studentachievement and meet both State and Federal Guidelines and requirements of No Child Left Behind. • Teachers will provide studentswith hands-on experiences in an interactive classroom to develop technology skills and interest within an enriched learning environment. • Focus on providing and graduating students with skills for the 21st century work force which includes the ability to collaborate in a technology driven world. BRIDGE CITY ISD Technology Plan: 2010 – 2013

  11. Teaching: New ways to support those who support learning. • Technology can enable mentors, coaches, and peers to better support learning both in and out of school. • Teachers can benefit from resources provided through technology and from anytime/anywhere professional interactions, including collaborations to share and refine effective techniques and resources. https://edtechfuture.org/

  12. GOAL 2:Provide meaningful and purposeful ongoing staff development to promote growth in educators‘ effectiveness in integrating technology in a student-centered learning environment. • Provide trainingfor all new and existing technology resources required by curriculum initiatives designed to improve academic achievement of all students. • Provide faculty and staff trainingto achieve implementation and appropriate uses of all technology resources based on data-driven decisions to improve student success. • Offer staffdevelopmentopportunities in a variety of mediums to provide educators with necessary skills to integrate technology in the classroom. BRIDGE CITY ISD Technology Plan: 2010 – 2013

  13. Assessment:Measuring what matters and providing the information that enables continuous improvement processes at all levels of the education system. Students, teachers, parents and administrators should have access to the kinds of data that can enable better instructional decisions and provision of educational resources. https://edtechfuture.org/

  14. GOAL 3: Provide staff with the technology resources, tools, and training necessary to improve the quality of communication with parents, community partners and stake holders. • Expand online resources for efficient access and use of information by all staff, students, parents and community partners. • Plan and provide technology training and continued education opportunities for staff and community partners. BRIDGE CITY ISD Technology Plan: 2010 – 2013

  15. Productivity: Redesigning systems and processes to free up education system resources to support learning. In an era of scarce resources, education systems need to take advantage of new technological and content solutions to reduce spending tied to inefficient systems and processes. This effort includes more effective approaches to education R&D to increase the pace of innovation and the scaling of effective practices. https://edtechfuture.org/

  16. GOAL 4:Provide the infrastructure to support robust information delivery and emerging technologies to students, teachers, administrators and community partners. • Supply the necessary building space, equipment and supportstructure to maintain and expand the Bridge City ISD infrastructure. • Upgrade the district’s network infrastructure to provide resources for emerging technologies that supportinstructional and administrative applications as well as share resources and services with higher education, parents, local businesses and community members. • Provide timely and knowledgeable technical support for all implemented technologies. BRIDGE CITY ISD Technology Plan: 2010 – 2013

  17. Evaluation Process: All teachers at all campuses will complete the Texas Star Chart and a district survey to assess the use of technology to improve education and student performance. The technology committee will meet again in the spring to determine the progress that each campus has made during the year in regards to effective use of technology in the classroom. This will also give time for additional feedback for planning professional development opportunities for the beginning of the next school year. BRIDGE CITY ISD Technology Plan: 2010 – 2013

  18. Evaluation Method: The technology department and the technology committee will use the following means to evaluate the success of the technology plan and to make decisions on the impact that technology has on the learning process for all students. * Star Chart * A district teacher survey addressing the teacher's success of integrating technology into curriculum and instruction * TAKS scores * Notes and suggestions from committee meetings * Monitoring technology integration through classroom observations * Reviewing teacher lesson plans * Inventory of software or hardware purchased to meet student objectives * Review of technology plan timelines and implementation of strategies BRIDGE CITY ISD Technology Plan: 2010 – 2013
