2 Educational Technology Mission Statement The Alexandria Central School District (ACS) will provide appropriate training to implement a technology curriculum and instruction that meets or exceeds New York State Standards. District Computer Technology Committee The Technology Committee focuses on district-wide development and technology improvement of the education of our students. Superintendent of Schools High School Counselor Educational Technology Coordinator Health Teacher K-12 Elementary Teacher 5 th Grade Library Media Specialist Network Administrator Mr. Robert Wagoner Jr. Mr. Kevin Durr Ms. Lily Gionet Mrs. Barb Bresnahan Mrs. Betty Compeau Mrs. Cindy Tidd MORIC District Demographics The Alexandria Central School District consists of one instructional building. District Enrollment is approximately 630 students grades Pre-K 12. Vision for the Educational Technology Program The Alexandria Central School District is dedicated to preparing students to be successful in our constantly changing society. It is therefore important that students understand and incorporate present and future technologies into their lives. It is our goal that each student has the opportunity to acquire transferable skills that will enable them to be lifelong learners. Communication with Parents ACS believes technology is a means to increase communication with parents. Software employed to communicate with parents includes student management systems where parents will have access to student s records including grades, attendance, and discipline. ACS will continue to use the ACS web site to share current information with parents, students, and other community members. 1

3 Purpose of the Educational Technology Plan This plan provides an orderly means to meet students needs and to help them develop computer and research skills throughout their educational experience at ACS. Defines the roles and expected competency levels for computer-related technologies at various grade levels; States the relationship between the curriculum and the implementation of appropriate applications and technologies; Provides educational technology training for professional development; Establishes a timeline for implementation of the plan; Detail the financial and budgetary requirements for the accomplishment of the plan; Provides a tool for assessing the implementation of the plan. Requirements for Effective Implementation of Technology Advances in technology continually change and impact the way we obtain, process, present, evaluate, and use information. Therefore, the district s goals are to continue to: Implement a comprehensive staff development program to ensure appropriate and effective use of technology; Integrate technology within and across all curriculum areas; Provide access to technological equipment and materials for all students and staff; Promote technology as an alternative to traditional methods of gathering, organizing, and synthesizing information for instruction, management and evaluation; Ensure access of high speed telecommunication lines to enhance the process of educational technology through video conferencing, distance learning, educational technological field trips, etc.; Provide sufficient funds, within the budgetary constraints of the district, for the implementation, maintenance, and development of technology. Evaluation The intent of technology in education is to improve instruction, increase student achievement, and make our students technologically literate. To achieve this goal the district will use the following evaluate the effectiveness of the integrated curriculum: Students will meet or exceed the New York State Reference Points on standardized tests; Integration of technology will be apparent in teachers lesson plans; Students work will show evidence that they have met the instructional technology competency standards for their grade level that are outlined in this plan; At the conclusion of each year, a needs assessment will be conducted to determine the districts technology needs. 2

8 Staff Development Goals Staff Training to Help Students Meet Educational Technology Competency Indicators in Technology: ACS will provide staff training that will aid in teachers proficient use of technology. ACS wants to ensure that students acquire the ability to meet the educational technology competency indicators. Teachers primary focus will be on integrating technology into their curriculum rather than teaching students prerequisite skills necessary to integrate that technology. Training will focus on raising teacher proficiency levels. TYPES OF TRAINING One-on-one Training: Educational technology coordinator, library media specialist, or other identified technology leader meets with teacher to discuss specific computer application. Consultation Method: Educational technology coordinator, library media specialist, other identified technology leader meets with teacher to discuss technology options for upcoming projects. Either classroom support or one-on-one support for the teacher can be provided. Peer to Peer Method: Technology leaders throughout the building are identified and provide support to a peer or peer team related to a specific technology concept. Staff Development Workshops: The district educational technology coordinator, library media specialist, or technology leader identifies an area in which additional mass instruction is needed. Such training will be provided during school days. Professional Development Workshops: The district, educational technology coordinator, library media specialist, or technology leader identifies an area in which additional mass instruction is wanted. The district must approve the workshop before it can be offered. This training will be provided outside of the school day and is voluntary. Model Schools Workshops: Teachers and administrators will be given advance knowledge about all technology workshops offered as a part of Model Schools. Teachers will be encouraged to join Model Schools Curriculum Committees and attend other off-site workshops. ACS has identified the following elements as key to the staff development process to ensure the accomplishment of the district's Educational Technology goals: New teachers will receive training in order to orient them to the ACS network and , how to create a district web page, student management system, and use of district network resources. Teachers will sign an acceptable use policy that defines appropriate technology use and ACS guidelines. 7

9 The ACS Educational Technology Coordinator, Network Administrator, and MORIC (Mohawk Regional Information Center) personnel will work with teachers to set up projects that will integrate technology into the curriculum. A needs assessment will be completed each school year to determine individual needs. Throughout the year time will be allocated for teachers to access new technologies, receive training, and to work collaboratively in teams in order to further integrate technologies into their curriculum. Educational technology coordinator, library media specialist, or technology leader staff will be trained in order to effectively meet the needs of the teachers and staff in using computer technology in the classroom. 8
