| Goal: To use district and student technological resources for innovative classroom instruction while preparing students to be technologically capable in today’s society. To show that district support of technology will improve student and campus success. | ||||
| Action Steps(s): | Person(s) Responsible: | Timeline: Start/End | Needed Resources | Evaluation |
| Survey 160 middle school students about their attitudes, accessibility, and willingness to use technology on the classroom. | Mrs. Klein | September 1, 2011 | 30 student lab computers Teacher -created survey taken on teacher website | Survey results are technologically evaluated: Cell Phones 34.45% I Pod Touch 26.79% I Pad 5.26% Laptop 33.49% |
| Assign a two-part assignment consisting of B.Y.O.T. and at home completion tactics | Mrs. Klein Mr. Harrell | September 12 - 25 | Teacher grade reports and online survey results | Skyward (gradebook resource) and SchoolWire (online education resource) programs will provide assessments of student completion |
| Analyze the completion reports vs. B.Y.O.T., 1st, and 2nd week assignment completions | Mrs. Klein | September 26 | Internet Access | A spreadsheet will be created tracking student completion |
| Survey students and report results to site supervisor. Review results with district technology director. | Mrs. Klein Mr. Harrell Mrs. Rhame | October 2011 | Surveyed by Mrs. Klein | Each student will fill out a survey describing his or her thoughts on using technology in the classroom and at home. Their interest level, willingness, and accessibility will be recorded. I will also reflect on the monitoring process regarding the same questions. |
The necessity for completing an online assignment will assist me in evaluating student access to technology. Additionally, I’ll be able to monitor student participation and evaluate if students’ campus-wide participation in an after-hours “open-computer lab” improves their confidence in working with technology. Data regarding completion rates, student mastery, and student participation will hopefully support the district B.Y.O.T. program and a possible campus program to assist students and families with technology access.
