Summary
The practice: Planning - School leaders must play a central role in the cyclical development, assessment, implementation, and revision of school technology plans.
- Technology plan includes benchmarks for evaluation, beginning in kindergarten
- Technology integration is critical to preparing students for a technology-rich society
Deer Park Elementary School opened its doors in 1994 with the mission of effective integration of technology in teaching and learning throughout the school. Staff and community members developed the school's technology plan and sought to establish a "Total Technology School." Deer Park's technology plan is closely aligned with its computer/technology standards, as well as the Virginia Technology Standards of Learning. Each goal of the school's technology plan designates clearly defined benchmarks for evaluation.
This site also exemplifies the following practice(s):
- Access - School leaders must ensure equitable access to current hardware, software, and connectivity that supports instructional goals.
- Support - School leaders must ensure that a technical and pedagogical support system exists that facilitates the use and maintenance of technology in their schools.
