Executive Summary The 2008 2011 School District of Grafton Information and Technology Plan was a collaborative effort of a variety of stakeholders in the Grafton Learning Community. The District is currently in a time of transition. The culture is changing to a data driven decision model in which every grade level and department has developed SMART (Specific Measurable Attainable Results oriented Timebound) goals designed to improve student achievement. These goals were the driving force behind this plan. This plan is about building capacity across the District to integrate information and technology into the curriculum to help grade level teams and departments meet their SMART Goals. Hardware and software acquisition decisions support these goals. The plan calls for developing best practices such as higher order thinking skills, 21 st Century Thinking Skills (www.21stcenturyskills.org), and project based learning to prepare students for a changing workforce. To accomplish this, the District needs to move from isolated classroom planning to develop shared community of practices. The plan consists of four main action plans: Educator Proficiency, Effective Teaching & Learning, Access to Information & Technology, and Support Systems & Leadership. Actions support the following goals: Educator Proficiency Goal: The District will develop the capacity of the staff to integrate higher order thinking/21 st century skills into their teaching practices with a result of improved student achievement. Effective Teaching & Learning Goal: As a professional learning community, the District will develop processes for sharing best instructional practices with the end result to improve student achievement. Access to Information & Technology Resources Goal: The District needs to provide increased and equitable access to information technology resources to improve student achievement. Support Systems & Leadership Goal: The District will have the capacity and skills to use data in making informed decisions about instruction to improve student achievement. The District vision of improving student achievement is the center of this plan. Each action in the plan contributes to this vision by providing teachers, administrators, and students with the skills and resources needed to meet District initiatives. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 1

All of the actions in support of District initiatives (SMART Goals, Curriculum Mapping, Professional Learning Communities, Building Leadership Teams, Standards Based Report Cards, NWEA MAP Testing) lead to the accomplishment of our plan objectives: By the end of the 2011 there will be continuous improvement in all areas of student achievement and in all other program areas and departments as evidenced by attainment of the annual SMART goals for the District (Appendix B). In order to meet these goals and objectives to maximize student achievement, the addition of a curriculum technology specialist would substantially improve the rate and quality of professional development and implementation of this plan. The committee recommends re evaluating staffing for information and technology each year to see if the addition of this position would be feasible. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 2

Introduction The 2008 2011 School District of Grafton Information and Technology Plan was a collaborative effort of teachers, administrators, aides, support staff and community members. The effort was centered on large and small focus group discussions during the 2006 07 and 2007 08 school years. This was a similar process to prior year plans, but a new aspect of our current work has been the use of online discussions and document posting within the District Moodle server. The District SMART Goals also directed the future technology needs. Since the last technology plan was written in 2004, many changes have taken place at the District. Professional Learning Communities Transitioning from the 2003 Strategic Planning Process to a Professional Learning Communities model resulted in a new District Mission and Vision Curriculum Mapping Currently in a process of mapping all grades, all content areas in the District. SMART goals The District is the first year of implementing grade and department level SMART goals. Elementary Grading Practices Developing a standards based elementary report card and moving to a trimester system. Technology Improvements The 2000 referendum provided sufficient funding for the first half of the decade so that the hardware infrastructure is stable and able to expand. A consistent budget has been instituted during the past three years to maintain the current equipment and add additional labs, workstations and servers as needed. The current network consists of approximately 20 servers and over 900 workstations for the 2,400 end users. The IT Department added a part time administrative assistant during this time in order to fulfill the NCLB reporting requirements (WI WSLS system). A loss to the IT Department was the technology integrator being transitioned into a middle and high school business education teacher. The best course for future staffing needs to be determined. The network has tripled in size this decade but the IT Department has.5 less positions than seven years ago. Fortunately the network has been stable while adding new services or assignment of new job responsibilities every year. This is partially due to standardization of equipment, remote management, and increased end user proficiency. The latter reason may provide Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 5

an indication that future staffing may not be needed in "training, but how to improve in teaching and learning with technology. The IT Department will revisit the staffing issue annually during the course of this plan. The task to provide a stable, expandable network that supports teaching and learning of higher order thinking / 21 st century skills is a challenge, but not an impossibility within the realities of current school funding. The District has many strengths that can be leveraged to attain its goals. One of these strengths, and one that students of the District have benefited from, is the assignment of certified library media specialists in each building. These teachers have provided leadership in getting each of their staff and students to expand their information literacy skills. In addition to the specified Action Plans detailed, the hope is that this plan will also serve as a guide for how to utilize new or unanticipated technologies and provide rationale for funding priorities. District Mission: Our learning community exists to create experiences that maximize the individual growth of every student. (Appendix A) District Vision: Shared Commitment and a Standard of Excellence for Every Student Every Day. Information Technology Vision: The Grafton Learning Community is committed to providing progressive and sustainable technology systems and information resources in order to create learning experiences that maximize the growth of every individual. Learning will be comprehensive, in a manner that is both knowledge based and experiential. We will be information literate: able to locate, evaluate, and communicate information in all curricular areas. Information Technology Mission: The Grafton Learning Community will use our technology systems and resources to: Support the District s mission and vision in order to enhance the professional learning community through continuous improvement and best practice research. Improve student learning through District curricular initiatives, which support the Wisconsin Model Academic Standards and Information & Technology Literacy Standards. Ensure equal access to technology despite economic status, gender, race, or educational needs. Provide experiential learning opportunities to develop 21st Century Skills and use information effectively. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 6

Integrate classroom learning and library media resources through collaboration and interdisciplinary learning. Support District facility improvements for efficiency, security, communication, and accessibility. Background The School District of Grafton is located in Grafton, Wisconsin. The community is over 100 years old. The early Grafton residents recognized the importance of education. In 1845, Grafton was one of three townships with schools in what was then the territory of Wisconsin. Today, Grafton (village and town) has a growing population of over 15,000 residents. Grafton boasts attractive, tree lined neighborhoods, a bustling commercial center, and a strong industrial base. Proximity to the Milwaukee metropolitan area provides many social and cultural opportunities while maintaining a small town feel. In addition to the Village of Grafton, the school District draws students from two surrounding townships and villages the Town of Grafton and the Town of Cedarburg as well as a small portion of the Village of Saukville. The District's educational facilities include one high school, one middle school, and three elementary schools. Enrollment in the District is approximately 2,100 students, with 190 teachers and professional staff. Student Demographics: Number of Students % of students White % of students African American % of students Hispanic % of students Asian % of students Native American % of students receiving free and reduced lunch 2,078 94% 2% 2% 1% 0% 10% *2006 2007 school year statistics Research that Supports this Plan: The Grafton School District is in a time of transition. The District is moving to a datadriven culture in which data helps inform decisions about teaching and learning. This also impacts the use of information and technology in the District. The use of technology and information resources provides teachers with the opportunity to better meet the learning needs of individual students. Research suggests that students learn better when they are actively engaged in relevant, meaningful activities that bridge Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 7

the gap between conceptual and applied learning. Improving learning through technology requires not only technology, but the right combination of technology, teacher proficiencies, instructional design, and updated curriculum (NCREL, 2007, p. 20). Every grade level and department has created measurable SMART Goals. A copy is included in Appendix B. Using the Standards to map curriculum leads to higher academic achievement. Standards serve as rigorous goals for teaching and learning. Setting high standards enables students, parents, educators, and citizens to know what students should have learned at a given point in time. The absence of standards has consequences similar to lack of goals in any pursuit. Without clear goals, students may be unmotivated and confused. Contemporary society is placing immense academic demands on students. Clear statements about what students must know and be able to do are essential to ensure that our schools offer students the opportunity to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for success. Lesson planning should focus first on content and classroom strategies, then on ways in which technologies can enhance the lesson. Building lessons on a solid, research based foundation of effective strategies, adding appropriate technologies, and consistently applying those strategies should help ensure high quality instruction that has the potential of maximizing student achievement (Brabec, Fischer, & Pitler, 2004). In order to use information and technology effectively to support District SMART goals, new types of professional development are needed. Collaborative structures that aid teachers in creating communities of practice are needed. A community of practice is a group of people informally bound together by shared expertise and passion. Their members inevitably share knowledge in free flowing, creative ways that foster new approaches to problems (Wenger & Snyder, 2000). Members of a community spend time together discussing and focusing on problems related to their work. Wenger & Snyder (2000) suggest that in the short term, this makes their work easier or more effective; in the long term, it helps build both their communities and their shared practices. What is true in other communities is true for teaching communities: the newcomer develops identity through meaningful activity in the community and gradually moves toward full participation (Bjorke, 2004). Teachers observe how other teachers make modifications, how those teachers manage time with students, and how teachers interact with the special education department. Teachers find that as they participate in communities that they informally create their knowledge and beliefs about the world influence and are influenced by that community and their beliefs and values (Jonassen, 2000). Teachers in a community influence each other's pedagogy, adoption of new strategies, and outlooks toward inclusion. A community adds value to the organization and to its members by solving problems quickly, transferring best practices, and developing professional skills. Members gain these benefits without much teaching, but instead as an incidental byproduct of productive activity, due to the strong motivational basis and richly supportive environment. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 8

Creating communities of practice takes time and sustained interaction. It also takes development of teacher leaders. In a study conducted by Reil & Hank (2000), teacher leaders are more likely to: have made and continue to make higher investments in their own education promote knowledge construction rather than engage in direct instruction develop instructional practices, both with and without technology, that are theoretically tied to their constructivist philosophy use computer technology for teaching and learning integrate computer technology into their classrooms in ways that support meaningful thinking and involve collaborative project work and sharing of ideas with their peers Their position in the educational community mirrors students' positions in their classrooms. They use computers to help their students achieve the same level of respect and voice that these teachers have achieved within their professional educational community (Reil & Hank, 2000, p. 1). Communities of practice centered around information and technology don t just happen. Nardi & O Day (1999) talk about the need for mediators or people who build bridges across institutional boundaries and translate across disciplines. Common mediators in school districts include library media specialists and educational technology specialists. These people have expertise in making connections of how information and new technologies can be used in meaningful ways to support learning. Mary Ratzer, author of Student Achievement and School Libraries: Empirical Evidence from 15 State Studies 1992 2004, found that "quality school library programs correlate strongly with student achievement." The study showed that a library rich environment promoted student success. Reading scores improved up to 15% with access to and use of school libraries. Students also performed better on standardized tests and assessments. Important factors were professional school library media specialists who teach information problem solving skills and collaborate with classroom teachers, access to quality and varied information resources (print and electronic), and access to networked technology. However, for library media specialists and information technology consultants to be successful in their roles, they need unscheduled time to collaborate with staff. Also, their time focus has to be devoted to instruction and not to hardware support. Currently, the District does not have educational technology specialists to help staff with the infusion of technology into the curriculum. This position could be very helpful in helping grade level and department teams meet their SMART Goals. The plan calls for the District to re examine its staffing each year to see if a educational technology specialist position could be added. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 9

A copy of 2003 to 2007 project comparisons is included in Appendix D. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 16

The following stakeholder groups participated in the online survey: District Technology Coordinators (3) District Administrators (1) Board Members (2) Building Administrators (2) Parents (71) Educators (57) Students (178) The staff was surveyed on their professional development needs within the Goal #1 Skills Assessment. Results are found in Appendix F. In June 2007, the District held a focus group of fifteen teachers to determine their needs and issues that need to be addressed in the new plan. In October, the Technology Workgroup met and discussed future needs of the District. During that month a Developed Technology Plan was created (Appendix E). Each grade level and team in the District has reviewed student achievement data and created SMART goals that they are working toward. These goals were also used in the planning process. A copy of the District SMART Goals is included in Appendix B. During the 2007 2008 school year, the District created a planning committee made up of a cross section of stakeholders. The committee reviewed research and created the action plans. The committee also shared resources and discussed the plan asynchronously using Moodle. The following members made up the planning committee: Name: Position: Kristin Dillahunt* Elementary Music Teacher Aaron Hilts Assistant High School Principal Andrew Hudson 8 th Grade Science Teacher Jennifer Jakubowski Elementary Music Teacher Margaret Kuhn Elementary Library Media Specialist Scott Lazovik 2nd Grade Teacher Donna Marshall Special Education Aide Lori Mathias Middle and High School Business Education Teacher Nikki Mathews 7th Grade Science Teacher Scott Oftedahl Elementary Principal Dawn Repetti Director of Curriculum and Instruction Rick Seybold* District Technology Coordinator Peggy Siemers High School Library Media Specialist Lynn Slowiak Middle School Library Media Specialist Melissa Staude High School Science Teacher Linda Steffens Elementary Library Media Specialist Valerie Stuckens Elementary Library Media Specialist Erin Sumner High School Math Teacher Cindy Zozak 3 rd Grade Teacher *Community Members & Parents Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 17

Community Resources & Adult Literacy Providers: Community members were involved in the planning process for both the District Strategic Plan and the Information Technology Plan. There is continual and informal communication with community members. In addition, adult literacy classes are provided for the community. Pamphlets on offerings are distributed at the senior center, local newspapers, District web site, and District office. The District also works with the local library in coordinating training events for the community. Technology members serve on community organizations and work informally with the Village Police Chief on different technology and security issues. Local businesses are connected with the schools in a variety of ways. Teachers bring in representatives from local businesses and take field trips to local businesses. One elementary school has developed a formal program where every class is required to have a local community business partner. The elementary library programs had Caldecott winning author/illustrator Eric Rohmann visit each school in November 2007 to help celebrate National Children s Book Week. Thanks to the generous funding of our parent groups, Eric Rohmann spent a half day at each school, presenting separate programs to EC 2 students and grades 3 5 students. The high school automotive technology department has extensive community connections such as local community collaboration through AYES Automotive Youth Educational Systems. Interns are placed at automotive job sites throughout Ozaukee, Milwaukee and Washington counties in numerous automotive dealerships. The department routinely exchanges on technical assistance as well as technologies like software and computer interface equipment like vehicle scanners. ADAMM (Auto Dealers Association of Mega Milwaukee) and the WATDA (Wisconsin Auto & Truck Dealers Association) link the automotive department throughout the region and the state. The local NAPA and CarQuest stores both allow the department professional access to their inventory and on line ordering in the classroom. We use a variety of web sites from corporations for training also: Hunter Engineering, Snap on Industrial, and about 6 major automobile manufacturers allow us professional access to their electronic service information on the web through the AYES initiative. Our local dealers access us through the GHS auto web page. The District has competency checklists, business & education advisory council meeting minutes, as well as calendars of what the interns are doing in school while they are on the job at the dealers. Other community connections include: In spring of 2008, the high school technology engineering classes worked with local manufacturer Ram Tool to build and compete in state battlebot tournaments. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 18

The high school web publishing class created a new website for the village library. (http://www.grafton.lib.wi.us/ ) The site design was given to the library and initial editing help was provided by the District. Each elementary library media specialist teacher completes a lesson at the end of 4 th and 5 th grade on how to connect to the local village library and check out materials online. An Internet safety program sponsored by Ozaukee Family Services visits each of the elementary schools and presents to different grade levels. Needs Assessment/Current Status Analysis and Assessment of Progress Toward Previous Information Technology Literacy Goals: Overview: The 2005 2008 Technology Plan contained the following five goal objectives. Objective 1: By December 2007, 100% of staff will have shown growth on a locally developed assessment which measures both general and content specific technology skills. Objective 2: By December 2007, all of the indicators in the engauge condition Effective Teaching & Learning Practices will be in the Exploration Level. Objective 3: By December 2007, the mean score of the engauge condition Access will increase. Objective 4: By December 2007, the mean score of the indicator Community Connections will increase. Objective 5: By December 2007, the mean score of the condition Systems & Leadership will continue to improve These five objective goals fit into four areas of practice. 1) Educator Proficiency 2) Effective Teaching and Learning Practices 3) Access to Information and Learning Tools 4) Systems Support and Leadership. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 19

Educator Proficiency Action Goal: The level of quality staff performance will continually improve. Objective 1: By December 2007, 100% of staff will have shown growth on a locally developed assessment which measures both general and content specific technology skills. Progress to date: A locally developed assessment was created in 2006 and administered to all staff in January 2007 and 2008. The assessment was a self evaluation that staff completed via a web survey of skills that they have performed. The assessment and results are listed in Appendix F. Of the 143 staff who completed the evaluation both years, 130 staff recorded at least one area of positive growth. The evaluation also contained a free form area for staff to detail skills/programs that they have learned the past year and also skills/programs that they want to learn in the future. The following action plans were completed: Develop staff technology skill self assessment Administered assessment Analyzed results Building administrators required technology use by staff AUP, copyright policy shared with current staff, and reviewed with new staff The following actions plans were not completed: Use results from the skills evaluation to develop plans for staff development Results were made available in February of 2008 Demonstrate continual growth through peer review process The District curriculum mapping and SMART goals project has required a move to utilize staff development and mentoring resources away from technology skill development The District s curriculum mapping initiative, currently in its second year, was not anticipated prior to the former technology plan. The project has required all teachers to organize and enter their curriculum into a central web based application. Curriculum mapping has affected educator technology proficiency in the District. Skills from simple text formatting (line spacing, bullet groups) to PDF file creation with copy machines and the ability to create resource file attachments in the curriculum map have grown in all the staff. The elementary schools are transitioning to a standards based report card created by the student information system. This in turn has necessitated the development of a standards based grade book. As part of this process, teachers will have to design/use various rubrics, checklists, and scoring guides to record student performance of the standards.

Effective Teaching and Learning Practices Goal: To use information and technology resources to support efforts to continually improve student achievement Objective 2: By December 2007, all of the indicators in the engauge condition Effective Teaching & Learning Practices will be in the Exploration Level. Progress to date: Overall the District has progressed in the engauge condition Effective Teaching & Learning Practices over the past three years. Every indicator, with the exception of Relevance, has improved. Two of the five indicators are at the Exploration Level or higher. The following chart shows the 2003 and the 2007 District Mean for each engauge indicator: 2003 Mean Score 2007 Mean Score engauge Condition Effective Teaching & 2.97 3.24 Learning Practices: Learning Environment 2.79 2.81 Alignment to the Vision 3.34 3.62 Relevance * 3.05 2.96 Range of Use 2.91 3.15 Sound Base in Research and Best Practices 2.78 3.67 *The planning committee added an action to improve relevant instruction to this plan. The Action Plans for this goal were all implemented to varying degrees. The system for technology acquisition needs to be revised and improved. During the 2005 06 and 06 07 school years, a decision analysis for determining hardware and software purchases was carried out by the technology committee. The 07 08 year used the technology plan and SMART goal process. This process needs to be refined so that emergency changes to technology purchases are available and also so that purchases are made with greatest positive effect to teaching higher order thinking skills. Another action plan that needs revisiting is the library media specialists collaborating with teachers to improve critical thinking skills. The number of shared projects between library media specialists and classroom teachers has increased. For example, at the elementary level students participated in a collaborative state research project. However, the use of 21st Century Skills should be expanded. The SMART Goal initiative, in its initial year, has required teachers at each grade level or department to create and monitor performance goals that reference WKCE, NWEA MAP or other performance data. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 21

Access to Information Resources and Learning Tools Goal: To improve parent, staff and student access to information resources and learning tools to improve student achievement Objective 3: By December 2007, the mean score of the engauge condition Access will increase. Progress to date: The mean score of the engauge condition Access in 2003 was 3.42. In 2007, the District mean score rose to 3.52. The District expanded its student management system and acquired curriculum mapping software. The two areas that received lower scores (technology resources and connectivity) may be explained because the available equipment did not keep up with the perceived demand for growth. Actions outlined for this goal have been implemented or under review. Of note is the Skyward Family Access online grade book for middle and high school families implemented in 2006. The exploration of virtual learning options is being developed by the dozen middle and high school teachers who are delivering their course work via Moodle course management software. Open labs to the community have not been implemented due to staffing costs and will be considered as an action for the new plan. The middle school Library Media Specialist will provide open computer lab time for selected days during summer school. An area of initial improvement is the District s ability to maintain central, organized and current performance assessment data for formal assessment (WKCE, MAP, ACT, etc). The District uses a data dashboard software, Eclipse Summit, that is kept current with all class and course enrollments for reporting. These same scores are also housed in the student information system. What needs to happen next is for the information to be disseminated out to the teachers at their request and need. Currently reports are generated on an as needed basis, but teachers require an intermediary to generate the desired report. The Eclipse Summit software will be used for this purpose over the next two years so that teachers can login and create reports or view the data as they need. Support Systems and Leadership Goal: To develop strong learning communities based on increased levels of communication, cooperation and collaboration Objective 4: By December 2007, the mean score of the indicator Community Connections will increase. Progress to date: The mean score for community connections did not increase. The action plan for using e mail lists to communicate with parents was completed and implemented heavily at the high school and middle school. The District website promotion does take place through school newsletters and open houses. Email has become a standard communication tool with parents as well as web page homework and Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 22

grade book postings. The middle school is moving to using email to send home weekly Thursday Folder announcements and this will probably expand to the elementary schools next. The action plans that were not completed (adult education, technology facilities rental) required additional staff resources and were not prioritized higher than the student learning goals in the plan. A recent event in April 2008, an online parent night discussion on social networking technology, was positive for the parents who attended. This will be repeated at the middle school. Objective 5: By December 2007, the mean score of the condition Systems & Leadership will continue to improve. Progress to date: The mean score of the engauge condition Systems & Leadership in 2003 was 3.22. In 2007, the District mean score rose to 3.76. Analysis of Student Proficiency: Students in the Grafton School District are assessed on the Information and Technology Literacy Standards through a process that begins in third grade. Both district Library Media Specialists and Business Education instructors have identified the essential standards students are to be proficient at. Based on the identified standards, practice is given through various activities that are integrated throughout the curriculum and/or directly taught by the library media specialist and business instructor. Students are then assessed through a common performance and the District has a shared file that tracks student performance by grades 4 9 on completion of the benchmark, including the identified eighth grade technology standard. Each year the practice lessons (curriculum), assessments, and standards are re evaluated to make sure information is current and relevant. The records kept on each student are updated through eighth grade. Future work will be completed on Information and Technology Literacy Standards that have been identified for students in grades 9 12, and assessments for this level will also be completed. Identification of Underserved Populations Concerning Information & Technology Literacy Assistive Technology is considered in the IEP process. CoWriter, Boardmaker and Kurzweil3000 are the most common software titles used in the District for identified students. Kurzweil and BoardMaker are deployed over the network so that teachers can share templates with all other special education staff. All labs contain scanners with a network install of Kurzweil3000 so that it is available for scanning in books and documents. In the 2007 08 school year, a new Assistive Technology Committee was organized and chaired by District Occupational Therapist Diane Vespraskas. The group met four times during the year with team members each presenting research about or current use of Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 23

assistive technology hardware or software available in the District. A guest assistive technology specialist presented during one of the meetings specifically on Boardmaker and options in MS Office. This group will continue next year with an emphasis in training, best practice use, and budget. The District purchased NWEA MAP testing to pilot for grades 2 & 6 in 2004 05. The District purchased NWEA MAP tests for grades 2 8 during the 2005 06 school year. Since 2005 06, MAP testing has been conducted at least once per year at grades 2 8. Grade 5 data has been used for middle school class placement. Middle school Language Arts and Reading MAP scores have been used to monitor three times / year progress in Language Arts. In the 2006 07 school year, a Read180 mini lab was installed in the middle school. The software was purchased by a consortium of schools in the surrounding area. Students are identified by WKCE and MAP scores in reading. The middle school uses Accelerated Reader to monitor student reading levels. NWEA MAP Scale scores and WKCE results are used to identify students for placement in sixth grade and ninth grade math levels. Analysis of Educator Proficiency Staff Development in Grafton is in a huge state of flux at the current time. Currently, a need exists to build staff development into the school day for educators. The following options for this are being explored: Late arrival day at the high school Early release day Staff development during school day Utilization of team time hour at the middle school Release time for elementary teachers Using in service professional development days Attending outside workshops Utilization of vendors and specialists to train teachers Reorganization of elementary schools Initiating annual goals for educators including growth in technology skills Use of a train the trainer model of professional development to grow leaders in technology Optional before/after school training opportunities Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 24

Identified areas in which technology training is desired: Eclipse NWEA Map testing 21 st Century Skills Report card grade book (K 5) Responsible use of technology Atomic Learning (online technology training) Moodle Contribute (web editing) Library media center database resources Assistive technology SmartBoard training For the most part, educators in the School District of Grafton are in the Exploration stage of the engauge continuum. Staff is strong in the area of Implementing Technology Supported Learning. The staff is comfortable with technology and incorporating it into their lessons. Another strength for the District is the indicator Professional Practice and Productivity. Staff is willing to experiment with new technologies. Also the standardization of the Microsoft Office Suite, email, Internet access, and voice mail has improved staff competencies in this area. Staff need time set aside during the school day for training on new technology classroom uses and time to collaborate with one another. They also need more individualized instructional options and increased accountability for using technology with their students. Specific Areas of Need include: Cultivation of Digital Age in Skills and Processes Currently the District is in the Adoption Stage. At this level, the teacher is aware of digital age skills, and understands the importance of these skills to students lives, but lacks specific strategies for developing these skills. Planning & Design Currently the District is in the Adoption Stage. At this level, the educator begins to include technology based learning as an option in support of the lesson planning and curriculum design process that was in place prior to the availability of technology. Technology use may be somewhat mechanical, as the educator does not have a solid grasp of research or best practice to guide uses that match previous practice. Educators who previously instructed exclusively in whole groups, for example, may only be comfortable in the lab setting where all students can be working on the same thing at the same time. The educator at this level is aware that technology can help to better meet the needs of special needs students, but lacks the strategies for doing so. Assessment Literacy Currently the District is in the Adoption Stage. At this level, the educator may use technology to automate existing assessment practices. This educator may have difficulty in developing assessment strategies for Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 25

evaluating student products when technology is involved or when the products are the result of the more collaborative, active learning that technology often engenders. Analysis of Effective Teaching & Learning Practices EnGauge results show that the District is primarily in the Exploration Level for Effective Teaching & Learning Practices. The District has a solid foundation of hardware, software, and technology users throughout the District which has made effective use of technology for teaching and learning possible. Accommodations are made for diverse groups of students both through the library media program and through technology applications. The District has a certified professional library media specialist in each building, which greatly enhances the ability to effectively integrate information and technology skills into the curriculum. All stakeholders are represented in the planning process. Areas in need of improvement include: Learning Environment Currently the District is in the Adoption level. engauge recommends providing compelling models of effective uses of technology. Models enable teachers to experience immediate success both for their students and themselves. Until teachers and administrators are immersed in the culture of technology, they will need such models along with advice on the context, content, instructional design, curriculum, and assessment that together shape effective teaching and learning with students. Sound Base in Research & Best Practices Currently, the District is in the Adoption level for this indicator. As teachers in the District become more sophisticated users of technology, it will be important to document and verify the impact of their work on student learning. One of the best ways to do so, beyond literature reviews of others work, is action research conducted at local sites by local educators. In addition, it will be important that the District track research and emerging best practices with technology and report the findings periodically to teachers and administrators. Relevance Currently, the District is in the Adoption level for this indicator. Technology enables the school to engage student in real world applications of content; often this involves using real world data sets to solve real world problems. One of the easier ways to engage classes in real world applications is to join an online forum that has a structure for multiple classes. As teachers become familiar with the online experience, they can branch out into less structured forums. Eventually some will create their own linkages to both local and global partners who can add insights, expertise, and real world learning experiences to their students learning. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 26

Educators were asked about the current use of technology in their classrooms: Do students in your classroom regularly use technology to: 1. Consult with experts (9.68%) 2. Consult with students in other schools (1.61%) 3. Produce projects of their own design (62.9%) 4. Collaborate with community organizations or businesses on class projects (4.84%) 5. Participate on online projects (9.68%) 6. Publish their work on the World Wide Web (1.61%) 7. Produce work intended for audiences beyond the classroom (16.13%) 8. None of the above apply (35.48%) Each grade level and department team has developed SMART Goals based on student achievement data. The District also uses Eclipse, a curriculum mapping software program for teachers to record units, content/concepts, resources, and assessments for each course. How are information and technology skills aligned in the curriculum and assessed? The Information Technology Curriculum included in Appendix K shows how the information technology literacy standards are aligned within the curriculum. It also shows how each grade level benchmark is assessed. Analysis of Access to Information & Technology Learning Tools Data management and reporting has been an area of focus for the technology and curriculum departments beginning in 2005. The initial importing of WKCE test scores into the student information system (Skyward) has grown to using a data management program (Eclipse Summit) for user login and report generation. When needed, additional charting is done through Excel and Access for end user viewing as has been done with the kindergarten DIBELS scoring. The District is in the first steps of using these tools for building administrators to view, organize, sort, and analyze performance data. After this is done with the principals (2008 09), the plan is to have the teachers login and interact with the data. The District has highly qualified technology staff and library media specialists. All of the classrooms in the District are connected to the Internet. The library media centers are well utilized. There are multiple media technologies in place. All buildings are connected via a star topology single mode fiber network at gigabit ethernet speeds. All building IDF s are then connected via gigabit multimode fiber connections. The IDF to computer connection is 100MBs. There are four wireless access points in our system running 802.11b or 802.11g. The current setup allows for both teachers and students to save to network file servers. All District staff and students have individual network accounts and passwords.

The PBX switch and voicemail will be replaced in August 2008 with a Mitel IP phone switch and Voicemail. In subsequent years, IP phones will be replace the current sets in the schools. The District uses Skyward for its student information system. The business office, food service, special education departments also use Skyward. The District web site is maintained by a variety of users, including office staff, teachers and the technology department. Technical assistance can be obtained by web IT support site, help desk phone support and walk in assistance. A FAQ knowledgebase has been available online for the last three years. The technology technician and coordinator also make themselves available to answer questions or provide assistance when approached by staff in need of help. The District will need to continue to provide professional development and support for all staff, and a budget to maintain and develop current and future needs. The District also Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 29

Analysis of Support Systems & Leadership For the most part, the District is in the Exploration Level for Systems & Leadership on the engauge continuum. Some of the strengths for the District include: a strong infrastructure, knowledgeable and supportive technology support, and past financial support from the community. The District needs a curriculum/technology specialist who can help staff with integrating technology into the curriculum and using technology to support their SMART Goals. Administrators need to be adept at helping staff through the change process as the District moves to a data driven decision model. The District is strong and continually improving in being able to record and archive student achievement data. Report writing and distribution of the data is taking place in initial stages. The ability to use and analyze various assessment data (from formal Level 1 national assessments to informal teacher observables) to improve teaching and student learning is a needed skill for all district staff. Grafton Information & Technology Literacy Plan 33

SCHOOL DISTRICT OF GRAFTON Board of Education Policy STAFF USE OF INTERNET/ELECTRONIC MEDIA 522.2 Electronic information resources are emerging as powerful educational tools and the School District of Grafton is committed to utilizing these technology tools. While software, hardware and communications media change, it has been and will continue to be the responsibility of each person to use these resources in a productive and positive manner. Community, business or governmental agencies have provided for the acquisition of technology equipment for the District. The Grafton community expects this equipment to be used in a manner to promote educational excellence. This policy seeks to support that goal. ACCEPTABLE USE Users are defined as all employees, including teachers, administrators, and support staff, as well as volunteer or temporary parent/community users. Use of District computers, computer networks and Internet access is intended for instructional and educational and professional purposes. Instructional use of school technology resources must be in support of, and consistent with, the educational objectives of the District. Staff members educational professional activities can be understood broadly as including education, self-training, educational professional organizations and discussion on a wide range of subjects, not just those immediately necessary for a person s job or courses. Use of school technology resources for commercial purposes is strictly prohibited. DISTRICT OWNERSHIP The District wishes to create and promote an atmosphere of professional growth and creativity by its entire staff. Endeavors by individual employees that enhance the educational climate of the learning community are in the best interest of both employees and the District as a whole. With this in mind: All files or materials residing on District equipment by means of their creation under the scope of employment or storage on said equipment are the property of the District. Users are allowed limited use of disk space on workstations, file and e-mail servers, to be determined by the District Information Technology Department. User files and messages may be deleted from storage locations at the end of the school year. If such deletion is necessary, the Information Technology Department shall give advanced notice of this action and provide directions for staff who choose individually to back up their files. Appendix G

SELECTION AND RECONSIDERATION OF MEDIA CENTER AND OTHER INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS The Board of Education policy is to provide a wide range of instructional materials selected to implement, enrich and support the educational program for the student. Materials must serve both the breadth of the curriculum and the needs and interests of individual students. It is the obligation of the district to provide for a broad scope of abilities and to respect the diversity of many differing points of view. To this end, principles must be placed above personal opinion and reason above prejudice in the selection of materials of the highest quality and appropriateness. The district policy allows for a review of allegedly inappropriate media center and other instructional materials through the established procedures. Furthermore, the district endorses the American Library Association Bill of Rights for school media center programs. Media center materials, both print and non print and other instructional materials will be selected in accordance with the philosophy of this document. SELECTION CRITERIA The district will comply with the Department of Public Instruction Administrative rule for Wisconsin Statute 121.02(H) which in part states: All students shall be provided access to a current and balanced collection of books, basic reference materials, texts, periodicals and audio visual material which depict an accurate and unbiased way to cultural diversity and pluralistic nature of American society. The selection of learning resources on controversial issues will be directed toward maintaining a balanced collection representing various views. Learning resources shall clarify historical and contemporary forces by presenting and analyzing intergroup tension and conflict objectively, placing emphasis on recognizing and understanding social and economic problems. Staff members involved in the selection process of media center and other instructional materials shall use the following criteria: Print and non print materials shall: 1. Support and be consistent with the general educational goals of the district 2. Support and be consistent with the objectives of specific courses 3. Be relevant to the present 4. Have aesthetic, literary or social value 5. Be age and grade level appropriate regarding student emotional social development and ability level 6. Be developed by competent and qualified authors and publishers 7. Foster respect and understanding of the contributions made to our civilization by minority and ethnic groups 8. Represent our pluralistic society 9. Provide stimulus to creativity 10. Represent differing viewpoints on controversial subjects with the goal of providing balance Appendix H

11. Have a physical format and appearance suitable for their intended use 12. Have acceptable technical quality Other factors that may be considered when applicable are: 1. Contribution the subject matter makes to the curriculum and interests of the students. 2. Positive reviews found in standard selection sources. 3. Positive recommendations based on preview and examination of materials by professional personnel. 4. Reputation and significance of the author, producer and publisher. 5. Validity and appropriateness of material. 6. Degree of potential user appeal. 7. Artistic quality and/or literary style. 8. Quality and variety of format. 9. Value commensurate with cost and/or need. CONTROVERSIAL MATERIALS The Board of Education adopts in principal the statements of policy on library philosophy as expressed in the American Library Association LIBRARY BILL OF RIGHTS, a copy of which is appended to and made part of this policy. SELECTION PROCEDURE In selecting learning materials professional personnel will evaluate available resources and curriculum needs. The actual material will be examined whenever possible. Recommendations for purchase involve administrators, teachers, students, district personnel and community persons as appropriate. Gift materials shall be judged by the criteria identified within the district gifts/donation policy. Selection is an ongoing process which should include the removal of materials no longer appropriate and the replacement of lost and worn materials still of educational value. All materials withdrawn from use will be considered valueless and removed from the school. Criteria for removal of materials may include: 1. Materials having inaccurate or outdated information. 2. Materials depicting negative role stereotypes. 3. Materials no longer useful for curricular support or leisure reading. 4. Materials not circulated for a number of years. 5. Materials in poor physical condition. Requests, suggestions and reactions for the purchase of instructional materials shall be obtained from the professional staff and when appropriate from the students. Reviews of proposed acquisitions will be sought in the literature of reputable professional organizations and other viewing sources recognized for their objectivity. Materials will be examined by professional staff to the extent necessary or practicable to apply selection criteria. Preview copies will be available for on site examination by the public upon written request to the district Curriculum Director. Textbooks will be recommended by adoption to the Board of Education after review by a representative committee of teacher, Appendix H

principals, curriculum specialist and the Curriculum Director who have professional expertise in objective evaluation of materials. Building media center materials selection will be coordinated by the building media specialists and the principal. RECONSIDERATION PROCEDURES Media center materials considered by some as objectionable may be considered by others as having sound educational value or worth. Any concerned district resident or employee of the district may request reconsideration of media center and other instructional materials. However, the challenged material will not be removed from circulation while the district reconsideration procedures are in effect. Procedures: 1. All complaints received by the professional staff shall be reported to the building principal. 2. The principal shall contact the complainant to attempt to resolve the complaint informally by reviewing district policy regarding the selection of media center and other instructional materials. 3. If the complaint is not resolved informally, the complainant shall be supplied with the information consisting of the district instructional goals, materials selection policy statement and the reconsideration procedure for objections. The complainant will also receive a reconsideration request form that shall be completed and returned before consideration will be given to the complaint. 4. A formal request for reconsideration shall be received by the principal within two weeks from the initial contact with the complainant, otherwise the complaint shall be considered closed. The principal shall notify the Superintendent of the complaint. The Superintendent will then notify the Board of Education. 5. In accordance with the procedures any questioned materials shall not be withdrawn from circulation or use pending a final decision. During the reconsideration process, however, if required, questioned materials can be withdrawn for the child (or children) of the parents making the complaint. 6. Upon receipt of a completed reconsideration form the affected building principal will convene a committee of seven to consider the complaint. This committee shall consist of the curriculum direction, the appropriate K 8 or 9 12 library media center director, the principal, a teacher, two Board of Education members, and a school district resident. The committee reserves the right to use outside expertise if necessary in the decision making process. 7. The committee shall meet to discuss the material in terms of district policy and selection criteria. The committee shall prepare a report on the material containing their recommendations and disposition of the complaint. A written committee decision shall be presented within 14 days to the principal. 8. The principal shall notify the complainant of the committee decision and send a formal report to the Superintendent and Board of Education. In answering the complaint, the principal shall explain the written committee decision and review the district selection and reconsideration policy. If the complaint is deemed valid by the review committee, the principal will make recommended changes. Appendix H

9. An appeal of the review committee decision may be made to the Superintendent who will notify the Board of Education of the complaint within two weeks. The Board of Education shall make a final determination of the complaint at either of the next two regularly scheduled Board of Education meetings. The Board of Education may seek assistance from outside organizations such as the American Library Association, the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development or the Wisconsin Association of School Boards.

INTERLIBRARY LOAN MEDIA CENTER The School District of Grafton supports the principle of resource sharing and cooperation with other libraries to avoid duplication of expensive items. Materials not housed in our library media centers can be obtained from other libraries for student and staff use. Individuals borrowing through the school library system must be enrolled or employed by the school district. At the same time, our materials are available for use upon request by other libraries. The School District of Grafton, through the library media centers, provides interlibrary loan services to the school community as an Eastern Shores Library System. This is accomplished through the building Library Media Specialist during the school year. Information about Eastern Shores Library system is available at http://www.esls.lib.wi.us/index/html. This site includes access to the state wide database, WISCAT. Any type of material may be requested on loan from the School District of Grafton library media centers. The lending library media center has the privilege of deciding in each case whether a particular item is available for loan. The school library media centers ordinarily will not loan the following: Library resources in current and recurring demand which have extensive hold and waiting lists at the requested library media center. Reference materials, equipment, and licensed computer software. Materials on reserve for group or class use. Borrowers shall: Make every effort to exhaust their own resources before requesting from another library. Make every effort to return materials promptly. Return borrowed items by specified due date. All students and staff members are personally responsible for all materials borrowed to them and must reimburse the loaning library for any lost or damaged items.

Copyright Guidelines For The School District of Grafton This document is designed as a reference source for The School District of Grafton staff and students. The copyright guidelines are not comprehensive and do not absolve the staff and students from complying with all aspects of copyright law. This should not be considered legal advice. What is copyright? Copyright is a form of protection grounded in the U.S. Constitution and granted by the Copyright Act of 1976, the Digital Millennium Act, and the TEACH Act of 2001, for original works of authorship fixed in a tangible medium of expression. What does copyright protect? Copyright covers both published and unpublished works: 1. Literary works; 2. Musical works, including any accompanying words 3. Dramatic works, including any accompanying music 4. Pantomimes and choreographic works 5. Pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works 6. Motion pictures and other audiovisual works 7. Sound recordings 8. Architectural works These categories should be viewed broadly. For example, computer programs and most "compilations" may be registered as "literary works"; maps and architectural plans may be registered as "pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works." Approved by Grafton School Board, August 2004 Appendix J

FAIR USE Section 107 of the federal Copyright Act of 1976 contains a list of the various purposes for which the reproduction of a particular work may be considered fair, such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research. The Copyright Act also sets out four factors to be considered together when determining whether or not there has been a copyright infringement: 1. The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes. 2. The nature of the copyrighted work (for example, was the original work intended to be consumable?) 3. Amount and substantiality of the portion used; how much of the entire work is being copied? Also, how many copies are being made? 4. The effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. The distinction between fair use and infringement may be unclear and not easily defined. Acknowledging the source of the copyrighted material does not substitute for obtaining permission. Copyright protection and fair use applies to all media. For media without specific guidelines, or media not listed in this policy, perform a fair use analysis using the four tests of fair use. Approved by Grafton School Board, August 2004 Appendix J

PRINT According to the concept of "Fair Use" as outlined above, a single copy of any of the following may be made by or at the individual request of a staff member for research or use in teaching: A chapter from a book An article from a periodical or newspaper A short story, short essay, or short poem whether or not from a collective work A chart, graph, diagram, drawing cartoon or picture from a book, periodical, or newspaper. Multiple copies (not to exceed more than one copy per student) may be made by or at the request of an individual staff member for classroom use provided that: Copying meets the tests of "brevity and spontaneity" Time does not allow for purchasing the material The material is used only once The copyright notice is printed on each copy of the material The following shall be prohibited: Copying of or from works intended to be "consumable" (workbooks, exercises, standardized tests, answer sheets, other consumable materials) Copying to create or replace anthologies Copying to substitute for the purchase of material Copying directed by a higher authority Repeated copying of the same item by the same staff member from term to term More than nine instances of such multiple copying for one course during one class term VIDEO Rented or purchased "Home Use Only" video recordings may be used in the classroom as part of face to face instruction only. They may not be used for the purpose of entertainment or reward. Copies of any of the following video recordings may be made by or at the individual request of a staff member for classroom use: "In house" productions Works that are not copyrighted or works in the public domain Copies made under "permission to copy" arrangements The following programs may be copied off air by or at the individual request of a staff member for classroom use: Approved by Grafton School Board, August 2004 Appendix J

Instructional television programs Broadcast programs provided they are used within 10 school days of the original broadcast Programs with specified "permission to copy" arrangements The following shall be prohibited: Copying from premium channels (HBO, The Disney Channel, Showtime, etc.) or non broadcast channels (ESPN, MTV, Arts and Entertainment, etc.) Duplicating copyrighted video recordings Copying from one format to another Copying off air programs for the purpose of entertainment or reward CD ROM Copying any portion of copyrighted material to be included in a student and/or teacher produced presentation must meet the fair use copyright guidelines. A copied image may not be altered or modified into something different from the intent of the copyright holder. Example: You purchase a CD ROM with pictures that can be used for presentations. You may not use these pictures in a video you are preparing for another use SOFTWARE A single copy of a software program may only be loaded on a single machine unless otherwise noted in the documentation that comes with the software. The number of machines for which the license is purchased must only access network versions of software. Some software products allow teachers and/or students to take home a "home" version. If teachers or students do this, they must abide by the instructions that accompany the software package and license. ONLINE DATABASES Single copies of an article taken from a full text periodical database within the conditions of fair use are legal to copy. Commercial database vendors may have specific guidelines. Students and staff must also adhere to theses individual license agreements. Media Centers may make a single copy if it is to be used for private study or research. If the user later uses the reproduction for purposes in excess of fair use then the user is liable for copyright infringement. Approved by Grafton School Board, August 2004 Appendix J

INTERNET Images, sound files, and video may be downloaded for use in student and or teacher projects but must meet fair use guidelines. Students or teachers preparing a presentation to use outside of the classroom must obtain permission from the author to use copyrighted material. Resources from the web may not be reposted onto the Internet without permission. SCANNERS Using a computer scanner to convert print material into digital form is a violation of copyright laws unless it meets the fair use copyright guidelines or permission is granted from the author. DESIGNING WEB PAGES Under the copyright rules, all media is copyrighted. If there is a statement that the site is public domain or can be copied by teachers, etc. then you have permission to copy. Otherwise, apply the rules of fair use and all other copyright laws when you are designing web pages. MUSIC For sheet music, these guidelines allow for emergency copying (providing replacement copies are purchased), excerpts of no more than 10% of the whole work, and editing as long as the fundamental character of the work is not distorted or lyrics altered or added. For sound recordings, a single copy of student performances may be made for evaluation or rehearsal purposes. A single copy of copyrighted music owned by the school or the individual teacher may also be made, as long as it is only used for aural exercises or examinations.
