4 Epistemological Foundations The Chariho Regional School District believes that students learn best when they are actively engaged in and personally responsible for the learning process. Students need a safe and positive environment in which to talk purposefully about learning, to experience learning, and to observe learning. Learning is enhanced when students have an interest in and choice about what they learn. Students should be engaged in meaningful learning experiences that match their developmental status. New learning builds on previous knowledge through a process that is challenging and rigorous. That process must encourage students to problem-solve and to think originally, critically, and creatively. Thinking and problemsolving are closely linked to a demanding core of content knowledge. Learning is most quickly assimilated when connected to student goals, when students evaluate their own work and learning habits, and when instruction appeals to a variety of learning modalities and talents. In an environment of high expectations, sustained and directed student effort and expert teaching practices determine the extent of learning. Our schools and district will organize to encourage and support both. 4
5 Introduction The Chariho Regional School District will ensure the use of technology as a tool in the educational process to improve student achievement as evidenced by reaching state and national standards. All students will be provided with the opportunity to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to realize their potential, and to become productive citizens. We live in the Information Age. This age and the culture in which we live are increasingly being supported and changed by a wide variety of technologies. Technology is rapidly developing and changing. Chariho is responsible for preparing its students to be productive, contributing members of our society. This is done through effective, efficient, and meaningful instruction. Our students will leave Chariho to live and work in the 21st century. We are preparing them for a workplace and a home that is technologically oriented, which will demand workers and parents who can use higher order thinking skills. Jobs and life in general, will require people who can solve problems, understand complex terminology, communicate clearly, and make sense out of rapidly changing information. Life itself will demand higher levels of literacy in all areas. To this end, we in the Chariho Regional School District believe that technology exists as a very powerful, essential tool in the education process for both students and staff. Technology should be part of every curriculum at every level of instruction. "All technologies, at every level, explored by everyone" is a broad way to state the impact and importance of this fact of life. Since technology empowers students to improve achievement, technology needs to be incorporated into the regular classroom curriculum as a seamless component of the delivery of instruction. Technology should not be treated as a stand-alone or extra subject, but incorporated into all students academic lives as it is in the wider world of work, personal interests and recreation. Assessments will be measured using authentic project-based learning and/or quarterly common assessments. These assessments will be integrated with curriculum content. Students in 8 th grade will also partake in a state-wide assessment of their technology skills. 5
6 The Chariho Regional School District will provide computers and Internet capabilities to each classroom kindergarten through grade 12. Students in grades five through eight will attend computer literacy classes focused on keyboard instruction, introduction, reinforcement and mastery of computer software and Internet safety concepts and will have access to computers with teacher assistance and supervision during and after school. By the end of the twelfth grade, each student in the Chariho School District will understand the essential role technology plays in a person s ability to succeed in the 21st century. Each student will understand social, ethical and human implications of using computer technology. He or she will be able to effectively use digital resources, including software programs, Internet and the electronic portfolio to conduct daily operations and contribute to his or her own discrete knowledge base. He or she will realize the power given by technology to communicate and collaborate with others, collect information, and create new knowledge. He or she will routinely use productivity, communication and research tools to understand concepts, produce original work, present ideas, solve problems and make decisions based on real life situations and issues. 6
7 District Mission The Chariho Regional School District ensures that all students meet high academic standards and are prepared for lifelong learning and productive global citizenship. District Vision With a commitment to continuous improvement, the District s highly-qualified staff engages with students in state-of-the-art facilities to master challenging content, to promote creativity, and to foster critical thinking. The District is recognized by the community as its greatest asset. District Beliefs We believe that high academic standards and research informed decision making are critical All students can learn and meet or exceed rigorous standards. All students at every level must be engaged in rigorous and challenging academic experiences. Rigorous academic standards are the foundation of this school district. Instructional and program decisions must be data-informed and research-based. Learning is a continuous lifelong process. Schools must prepare students to be creative and critical thinkers, problem solvers, and effective communicators. The physical, social, and emotional wellness of every child is necessary for optimum learning. We believe that the larger community must be fully engaged in the learning process Education is a shared responsibility of students, parents, staff, and the community. Students thrive when supported, nurtured, and engaged by the community. In an environment that emphasizes school safety, everyone must be treated with kindness, dignity, and respect. Schools must prepare students to be team members and leaders, community contributors, and productive citizens in a global society. 7

11 Digital-Age Learning As foundational technology skills penetrate throughout our society, students will be expected to apply the basics in authentic, integrated ways to solve problems, complete projects, and creatively extend their abilities. ISTE's NETS for Students (2007) help students prepare to work, live, and contribute to the social and civic fabric of their communities. The new standards identify several higher-order thinking skills and digital citizenship as critical for students to learn effectively for a lifetime and live productively in our emerging global society. These areas include the ability to: Demonstrate creativity and innovation Communicate and collaborate Conduct research and use information Think critically, solve problems, and make decisions Use technology effectively and productively 11
