Technology Use Plan By: Joshua Thompson EDTECH 501 Spring 2010
Why do we need a technology plan? • A technology use plan provides: • A list of team members • Goals and objectives • Planning strategies • Budget
Team Members It takes a team to develop a technology use plan. The team should include: • Principal • Media Specialist (district level) • Media Specialist (school level) • Classroom teachers • Specialists (PE, Music, Library, ect.) • Parents
The Process • Develop a team • Meet as a group to identity the needs. • Define vision, goals, and objectives • Formalize the plan • Implement, evaluate, and revision. Step 5 Step 5 is always changing.
Vision Statement Chawanakee School District Technology Use Plan vision statement.
