"Leaders don't force people to follow, they invite them on a journey." --- Dan Forbes
My goal today is to share implementation ideas to consider as you begin your journey with integrating technology in your school:
- How and what technology do I get for my building with limited budgets and limited district support?
- Should I begin evaluating teacher use of technology right away? If not, how do I measure progress?
- Which technology apps and sites can I use as a campus leader and in turn teach my staff to use them in the classroom?
- What is our vision for technology integration? Develop a model and plan for implementation.
Eric Sheninger "We can't blame kids for hating school if we keep doing the same thing we always do. The learner today is wired differently."
