You may be asking:

  • Can I justify why these investments are essential to a 21st-century education?
  • Are our faculty supported with instructional technology use?
  • Are our students using technology in meaningful ways?
  • Are our students using the most appropriate platform (tablets, laptops)?
  • Are our students gaining technology skills at each grade level?
  • Are we using cost-effective strategies to deploy and support devices?
  • What should our three-year device strategy be?

While the answers to these questions may be unknown at the moment, recognizing their importance is a start. To respond to these questions, it will be imperative to conduct a school-wide evaluation. A comprehensive evaluation of this magnitude will demand personnel and resources not typically available and uncommitted in schools. Successful management of this type of evaluation could be unrealistic for many school communities.[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”30″][vc_column_text]Interested in an alternative?
