 * Making technology the foundation of the BST experience - technology integrated into all aspects of curriculum, administration and learning


 * Engineering - showcasing the application of math and science for innovative problem solutions

== Plan - Do - Review==

What? So What? Now What? If this then what?


 * Lectric Library proof of concept - BookSource / Classroom Organizer app - iTouch as scanner, students alpha codes, add books at check out, check in, reports


 * school website, teacher pages - custom programming, volunteer written and maintained


 * EdLink grading, student records - training, populate, recording, reporting


 * Edmodo - reading - parental permission letter approval


 * Showcase technologies integration - 5 slides x 3-5 teachers at weekly staff meetings


 * subscription content - promote, adopt


 * technology tracking - lesson plan reviews


 * Engineering in Social Studies - thinking

Continuous improvement


 * communication - who needs to know what? information sharing, access, input, response, format, tracking, recording, archiving


 * support - infrastructure, direction, responsiveness, training, research, experimentation - who has time / inclination / authority


 * privacy, permissions - specific parental permission - signed on file, student alpha codes for "free" web resource registration - BookSource, Edmodo


 * professional development - digital literacy, tools ? apps, BST guidelines, Professional Learning Committee, peer coaching


 * student digital literacy - objectives, inventory, plan


 * computers - location, access, utilization


 * subscriptions - applications, content - access, utilization, cost / benefit?


 * differentiated learning - technology support ? self-directed, self-regulated


 * formal / informal learning - engage, encourage, evidence ? portfolio


 * curriculum / technology integration - current status, goals / requirements, planning, implementation

== Technology Plan - Dec 2012== adapted from Minnesota Department of Education model school technology plan


 * 5 year big picture for school technology - technology integrated into all aspects of curriculum, administration and learning


 * administration - communication, program evaluation, ** vision > direction - expectations, guidance, authority/responsibility based on what is possible with resources and time available, priorities - documented and provide direction ** provide learning environments where staff and students have access to digital resources that allow them to experiment and discover the power of being a connected learner


 * teachers - productivity, teaching, assessment, professional development, differentiation, model the power of being a connected learner
 * students - student-centered, engaging, learning support - Learning Literacies in a Digital Age

== planning==

6 step planning process - five Technology Focus Areas (TFAs):


 * Student Learning (includes technology skills)


 * Teacher Preparation and Delivery of Instruction


 * Administration / Data Management / Communication Processes


 * Resource Distribution and Use


 * Technical Support

Planning process


 * 1. Technology Needs Assessment - baseline, instructional practice, learning - survey
 * 2. Goals and Strategies - objectives / outcomes - requirements, priorities
 * 3. Professional Development plan - prototype, ladder, progression
 * 4. Evaluation - monitor, measure, revise - rubrics, triggers, evidence

Digital literacies


 * Make it - Creativity and Innovation
 * Share it - Communication and Collaboration
 * Find it - Research and Information Fluency
 * Solve it - Critical Thinking, Problem Solving and Decision Making
 * Protect it - Digital Citizenship
 * Use it - Technology Operations and Concepts

Project idea / driving question - Make technology the foundation of the BST experience


 * communication - exchange of information - school, administration, teachers, students, parents, community
 * school - website with news, information, comments, feedback, contact information, regular updates. recorded, archive.
 * classroom - teacher / student / family - expectations, feedback. assignments, support, foundation, enrichment.
 * students - classwork, portfolio


 * content - delivery, access - differentiated, student-centered ? home, personal, school


 * capture, compute - activities to apply the knowledge - reading, writing, curation, creation, critical thinking, selection and use of appropriate technology


 * collaboration, cooperation - roles, responsibilities, milestones, deliverables

Products, performances


 * planning documents - project outline, checklists, task lists, action plans with responsibilities and dates
 * training, sub-projects
 * progress monitoring and reporting
 * celebration, achievement recognition
 * presentations - frequent, any format, multiple audiences


 * TBD - Entry event - kickoff * Assessments  * Resources needed * Reflection methods

== notes==


 * /Planning process notes/


 * The Global Achievement Gap - skills that our students need whether they are going on to college or the workplace - *   Critical thinking/problem solving *   Collaboration/leading by influence *   Agility and adaptability *   Initiative and entrepreneurialism *   Effective oral and written communication *   Accessing and analyzing information *   Curiosity and imagination


 * project planning - project overview


 * International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) NETS.T standards - teachers, NETS.S standards - students - student friendly * Creativity and Innovation = MAKE IT * Communication and Collaboration = SHARE IT * Research and Information Fluency = FIND IT * Critical Thinking, Problem Solving and Decision Making = SOLVE IT * Digital Citizenship = PROTECT IT * Technology Operations and Concepts = USE IT


 * National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) Definition of 21st Century Literacies - * Develop proficiency with the tools of technology *  Build relationships with others to pose and solve problems collaboratively and cross-culturally * Design and share information for global communities to meet a variety of purposes *  Manage, analyze and synthesize multiple streams of simultaneous information *  Create, critique, analyze, and evaluate multi-media texts * Attend to the ethical responsibilities required by these complex environments
