This section describes the following activities: The staff development process Integration of curriculum and technology Goals and strategies, including district technology goals |
|
Curriculum integration is based upon the new Bay-Arenac
ISD Technology Curriculum. The
curriculum contains grade level benchmarks for technology that are aligned to
the Michigan Curriculum Framework Technology Content Standards. The benchmarks are also correlated to the
International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) and National
Education Technology Standards (NETS). Each benchmark is part of an
instructional template which includes key concepts, evidence of achievement,
instructional activities, curriculum integration, suggested resources, and
assessments. The document also
includes performance expectations based upon the ISTE project which outline
the expectations for technologically literate students by grade level. Another key component to the document is
the matrix which provides a snapshot view of the curriculum for teachers and
administrators. |
|
|
The primary focus of the staff development sessions for
the 2005-2006 school year will be the implementation of the new K-12
technology curriculum. The new
technology curriculum was developed in consortium with the BAISD. The ISD team included representatives from
each level of the district. The
implementation process will include: ·
One required staff training
session each month ·
Elementary teachers will meet by
grade level teams ·
Secondary teachers will meet by
department ·
Curriculum will be reviewed in
terms of current instructional practices.
For example, the use of lab time ·
Clear guidelines will be
provided for each session ·
Staff integrate technology
curriculum into core area instruction ·
Additional in-services could be
developed as the project continues ·
Optional training sessions could
be designed based upon immediate needs ·
Tech As A Tool objectives will
be aligned with NCA school improvement goals and other district goals ·
New forms of technology such as video
conferencing and video on demand are being used to foster sharing ideas and
strategies. |
|
|
|
Internet access for students and staff is available on all
district computer systems. This
includes Internet access in all libraries, classrooms and labs. Distance
learning opportunities are available at the high school level, including The K-12 technology curriculum is currently being implemented. Training sessions continue based upon staff
needs and focus upon technology skills that students need to meet curriculum
objectives. |
|
There will be a number of methods of evaluating the
progress of technology curriculum integration. The NCA technology goals will be reviewed
on a regular basis and data will be collected to assess the impact of the strategies. Assessment rubrics will be an important
component of the technology curriculum with assessments or projects at each
grade level. Surveys of staff and
students to determine training needs may also be utilized. The appendix contains a complete listing of
technology integration assessments. |
Monitoring and Evaluation
Technology Integration Assessments – Staff
Technology Integration is essential to all areas of
the curriculum. It is with this thought
in mind that the Essexville-Hampton Public Schools provides a comprehensive
technology curriculum for students and a comprehensive professional development
program for staff. For technology to be
integrated into all curricular areas, staff members must have the proper training
to be successful.
1.
Integration
a) Technology - All staff members have been
provided with in-classroom networked computers, internet access, presentation
device, and television/VCR. In addition,
each building contains computer labs and has a variety of technology devices
available. Staff members have access to
the latest productivity and educational software applications.
b) Staff Development - All staff members
have been in-serviced on computer operations including specialized training
sessions and optional training.
2.
Assessment
a) Staff
Evaluations – The teacher evaluation instrument for the Essexville-Hampton
Public Schools specifically contains
criteria for the integration of technology in the
classroom. Staff members are evaluated based upon their
awareness, use of, and
application of available
technologies where applicable.
b) Professional
Development Evaluations – All staff development sessions are followed
up with a session evaluation. This evaluation is either done electronically
using
Zoomerang Survey software or
informally after the session.
c)
National/State Technology Standards - Essexville-Hampton Public Schools
has
adopted the International Society
for Technology in Education NETS standards for
staff and students through the adoption
of the BAISD Technology Curriculum. See
appendix.
d) Matrix
Documents – One of the tools of the curriculum integration process is the
curriculum integration matrix used
by staff and administrators. This matrix
provides a
ready guide to help staff meet
technology requirements at all grade levels across the
curriculum. (See appendix page 54)
e) Peer Review
– Success of programs will also be determined by peer review from the
North Central Association of
Colleges and Schools NCA team that is supporting the
district with our NCA goals.
3.
Determining Progress
a) Methodology
– Staff development must be sustained and on-going to be successful.
Evaluation of staff development
opportunities must also be ongoing. Each
building in
the Essexville-Hampton Public
Schools has established a professional development
committee. It is the responsibility of the committee to
suggest, implement, and
monitor training for staff
members. This includes technology
training for staff.
b) Measurable
Criteria – Professional development surveys such as the sample included
in the appendix provide feedback on
the success of technology integration programs.
Student achievement is also factored
into success at the building level.
c)
Timelines/Frequency – Professional development committee meetings are
held
monthly with immediate
feedback. Surveys will be conducted
monthly with an annual
professional development survey
conducted at the end of each school year.(Appendix
page 51)
d) Persons
Responsible – All staff members play a role in the success of the staff
development process. Key players in the process will include the
professional
development committee chairs,
building principals, assistant superintendent, and the
superintendent.
4.
Strategies for Unmet Goals
a) School
Improvement Plans – Each year the district drafts a school improvement
plan.
Technology integration
concerns/unmet goals will be built into the school
improvement plan for a building for
the year. These goals will then be
evaluated as a
part of the school improvement
process in addition to the professional development
committee work previously mentioned.

rubrics have been created and
followed as a part of the NCA
accreditation process.
e) Tungsten Learning
(Benchmark Assessment System) was added this year to grades 2-8 to
compliment the data gathered by the
MEAP testing and to support real-
time,
granular remediation at the classroom level between MEAP Assessment cycles.
3.
Determining Progress
a) Methodology
– Evaluation of student progress in implementing and understanding
technology is constant. Technology benchmarks apply to all curricular
areas. Student
evaluation consists of multiple and
varied evaluation opportunities.
b) Measurable
Criteria – Keyboarding checklists, assessments, rubrics, benchmarks, and
MEAP scores will be used in addition
to student feedback to gauge success of
programs. Student surveys will also be conducted at
various levels. (See appendix
page 62-67)
c)
Timelines/Frequency – Technology assessments based upon the curriculum
occur
daily. Performance indicators are assessed at the
end of each grade. MEAP testing is
conducted annually. Tungsten Testing is conducted twice each
month in the
Language
Arts and Mathematics areas in grades two through eight. Rubrics and
checklists are
also used at the completion of a unit or
activity (See appendix page
58).
d) Persons
Responsible – All staff members and students play a role in the success of the
technology integration process. Assessments will be conducted by Teachers,
paraprofessionals and administration
on a regular basis.

Many factors are used in the development and design of district technology training opportunities. The primary factors involved in the development of the training program are; district goals and objectives, state mandates, staff needs, current trends, and future needs. A staff development calendar will be provided to all staff members at the beginning of each year that provides information on the dates and locations of training sessions. |
|
|
The staff development program will be based upon a wide variety of training opportunities such as; Tech As A Tool K-12 curriculum development, M.V.U. On-line classes, independent study, building training, optional sessions, BAISD days, and individual training. |
|
|
Technology Curriculum |
The technology curriculum will be implemented during the
2005-2006 school year. |
|
The IT Training Initiative offers over 700 courses free for students, teachers, faculty
and staff of every non-profit education institution in |
|
|
Independent study training sessions are designed to allow
staff the opportunity to have “practice” time with technology. This time could be used for training by
department or grade level, IT computer courses, or lesson development. |
|
|
Optional or required sessions may be arranged by the
building principal on topics that are of particular interest to a specific
building. These sessions may be
offered in place of or during regularly scheduled staff meetings. |
|
|
A minimum of one optional session will be offered per
month. These sessions will be
available to all district personnel. Optional
sessions will focus upon topics identified by the participants. |
|
|
The district will continue to take advantage of the
services offered by BAISD. Training
sessions will be scheduled were BAISD trainers are available in the buildings
during the day to work with staff. The
district may also participate in training sessions held at the ISD or other
locations. |
|
|
|
Individual sessions will continue to be offered. These sessions may be conducted at any time during the day. Requests will be prioritized and appointments will be arranged based upon the nature of the request and time required. The following resources are available to all staff members as a part of our professional development programs: · On-line manuals · District on-line tutorials · CD Rom training guides · Training videos · Instructional manuals ·
Video lending and streaming
through the Bay Arenac ISD and other vendors ·
Partnerships with |
Coursewhere System
|
The district will utilize the Coursewhere registration system for training sessions. This system allows the district to track staff development attendance for state requirements and offer a wide variety of opportunities. |
|
|
Staff will need to use the Coursewhere system to register for the following: · All scheduled district training session · All district optional training sessions · All BAISD professional development opportunities |
Annual
assessment of the training program will be based upon a yearly survey of all
staff and feedback sheets that are distributed at the conclusion of each staff
meeting. Progress in meeting NCA and
district goals will serve as important indicators in the progress of the
program. Informal input from staff and
administration will also play an
important role in the development of the program.
District administrators, in conjunction with the Technology Oversight Committee, will be responsible for the evaluation of technology goals and objectives. Data gathered through surveys, NCA goal documentation and informal sources will determine areas of weakness in current goals. Weaknesses will be addressed as the plan is reviewed.
Access to Technology
Overview To provide up to date technology
equipment and materials to all staff and students is a goal of the
Strategies
·
A
robust professional development plan, based on the Tech As A Tool K – 12
curriculum, is already in place.
·
Every
elementary, middle school, and high school student in this district uses
technology.
·
Technology
is used to enhance the curriculum; the curriculum remains the defining element
for the use and purchase of technology.
As staff members update curriculum on a periodic and timely basis,
appropriate technology is integrated into that curriculum.
·
Students
with diverse needs have access to a variety of hardware and software programs
that will facilitate learning. Examples
include: the Quicktionary Reading Pen, the Dragon Naturally Speaking System,
AlphaSmart and software programs such as Start Write, Jump Start, Turbo Math
Write Out Loud and Accelerated Reading and Math.
The
district continually monitors Internet usage and blocks/filters educationally
inappropriate sites and materials.
|
All technology equipment in the district has a product life cycle, which will vary depending on the type of equipment and the frequency of use of particular items. The intent of this plan is to identify key elements for consideration as the district continues to upgrade and replace technology equipment. It is understood the district will need to develop and maintain processes to upgrade and or replace technology district-wide. This will be an ongoing process and it is recommended that the Technology Department maintain a replacement schedule that addresses the needs of the district. These recommendations should be available upon request. |
|
|
System replacement will include consideration of the following options: · Upgrade of equipment instead of full replacement. · Systematic purchase option. · Lease solutions. · Combinations of all of the above. · Prior to replacing any technology, the district should assess its current use and determine if other emerging technologies may replace it. |
|
|
Projected
timetable for implementing strategic long-range plan: ·
2005-2006 -Evaluate future training needs for staff and technical
personnel -Staff Training -Server Upgrades -Continue Core Application upgrades -Implement MEAP benchmark testing (Tungsten) -Finalize implementation of Disaster Recovery
strategy ·
Future -Begin phased replacement/upgrade of existing
telephone and voicemail system using VOIP (Voice Over Internet Packet)
technology -Staff Training on new systems -Server Upgrades -Implement rolling 60 month PC replacement plan
(lease) -Begin deliberate replacement of broken CAT5
ethernet components with wireless broadband architecture Projected
total cost of technologies and related expenses needed to implement strategic
long-range plans. Project Estimated Cost Rolling PC replacement $128,000.00/year VOIP phone system upgrade $65,000.00 (one
time expense) Training $6,000 Server Upgrades
$5,000 |
|
|
The district will also
implement a review process that includes the following types of
considerations: |
|
|
|
·
Review
the district technology goals and evaluates the impact of those goals on
educational outcomes as defined within the technology plan. This can be done
by formal or informal methods designed at the building level. ·
Annually
review the reliability of the technology equipment. ·
Annually
determine that staff and students are adequately using the technology
equipment. This can be accomplished through the development of a review that
incorporates staff and student input on how technology equipment is being
used within the classroom and building environment. ·
This
information will be used to enhance staff development programs and to improve
the overall use of instructional technology. The process for gathering this
information can be accomplished in a variety of ways: 1.
Building level development through the NCA teams. 2.
Curriculum and grade level committees. 3.
Technology Oversight Committee input. 4.
Student forum opportunities. 5.
Parent advisory committee input. |
|
Coordination of available local and state grant resources. |
|
|
|
The district server system will need to be annually reviewed and upgraded as determined appropriate. Upgrades may include additional servers, expanded data storage and operational software. It is recommended that the district both evaluates and upgrades on an annual or semi-annual basis: · Technical Specifications · Hardware Standards · Software Standards ·
That
the district continues to meet current hardware and software standards. This
can be partially addressed by the Technology Oversight Committee maintaining
its focus in the area of software review, testing and application needs. |
|
|
The majority of the above recommendations can be completed at the building level. The responsibility for the completion of these various tasks will vary depending upon the specific opportunity. The responsibility for the completion of these goals will generally be addressed by a combination of the following: · Superintendent · Principals · District teaching Staff · NCA Committee · Technology Oversight Committee · Curriculum / Grade level Committees · Technology Department The district will also continue to evaluate the staffing levels needed to support the technological needs of the district. This will include the review of both department and building level needs. All efforts will be made to provide adequate support staff personnel, however, all staffing needs must be evaluated based upon identified priorities and current district budget parameters. It is also recommend that all technology personnel posses the skills and knowledge to match the level of support needed by the users. |
