Campus Principal Facilitates the implementation of technology on
campus through professional development
activities, analyzing key data information tools
with faculty, aligning campus improvement
plan goals to support the use of technology
integration, makes teachers aware of policies,
provides funding for technology initiatives, and

technology 2.0 web tools.
The role of the principal is instrumental in making sure the organizational chart is
implemented and monitored. A principal can no longer be passive in their leadership. A
principal in the 21st century must be proactive. Districts require principals to have a part
in the planning process for implementing technology at their campuses. It is the
principal’s responsibility to have professional development sessions that analyze trends in
data for their specific campus using STaR chart data, National Speak-Up Survey data,
and the Texas Long Range Plan for Technology. Teachers must be made aware of
Technology TEKS they are responsible for teaching. A principal must ensure these
TEKS are being implemented through formal and informal observations in the classroom.
Teacher’s lesson plans must be evaluated for integrating the technology link in their
lessons. Principals must provide on-going professional development in implementing
4. technology based on the individual needs of their campus and teachers. A needs
assessment should be completed annually and SBDM committees must ensure that these
technology goals are in place in the campus improvement plan. A principal must be a
role model in the appropriate use of technology and using technology to enhance learning
and collaboration of stakeholders.
Week 4 Part 2 Technology Action Plan
Strategic Action Plan for Robinson Elementary for the
Implementation of Technology in Elementary Education
2010-2011
Vision: Technology will be implemented into the curriculum as a tool to increase
engagement, motivation, and achievement for our 21st century learners.
Goals:
Our campus will provide our students and staff with up-to-date technologies that
enhance learning, engage students, and improve staff efficiency and instruction.
Our campus staff will become proficient in analyzing key data evaluation tools
such as the STaR chart to monitor our campus’ progression in implementing
technology TEKS for our 21st century learners.
Our campus will provide on-demand help for teachers implementing technology
through support from our technology specialist.
Our campus staff will develop proficient technology skills through on-going
professional development opportunities on site and courses available on-line.
Our campus staff and students will be required to attend an Internet Safety
Program that teaches proper behaviors and expectations of digital citizenship.
Professional Development:
After careful analysis and consideration of the results from the campus STaR chart, Long
Range Plan for Technology, and our National Speak-Up Survey, the following are
recommendations of areas needing further professional development:
1. Analyzing STaR Chart Data:
Faculty meeting with all staff members to analyze STaR chart data for our
campus using STaR Chart Power Point (created in Week 2 assignment).
5. Participants will be introduced to the Long Range Plan for Technology and
understand how the four key areas of Teaching and Learning, Educator
Preparation and Development, Leadership, Administration and Instructional
Support, and Infrastructure for Technology aligns with STaR Chart data.
Participants will be asked to complete the Technology Applications Inventory
specific to their knowledge and skills required for implementation of the
Technology Applications TEKS in their class.
Participants will complete a questionnaire concerning what they feel are their
greatest strengths and weaknesses when implementing technology. They will also
list professional development opportunities they would like to take to help them
implement technology more efficiently.
2. Proficient Use of Technology Tools for Instruction and Collaboration:
Provide on-going instruction on using the interactive Whiteboard and Mimios on
campus to enhance instruction capabilities for continued engagement of students
and support of best practices in education.
Provide collaboration between teachers to share Whiteboard technology lessons
in a hands-on setting.
Provide hands-on instruction for creating blogging communities, teacher
websites, wikis, podcasts, and web conferencing in order to increase the use of
these technologies in the classroom and throughout the community.
Continue to provide instruction on the variety of digital media resources available
for teachers and staff to create multi-media presentations for enhanced learning
of students and other staff members.
Provide instruction to extend learning experiences outside the classroom through
training for virtual field trips and video conferencing.
Provide as many 24/7 on-line courses for teachers and students to take that allows
for differentiated instruction of technology based on needs and proficiency.
Assign buddies and mentors for teachers who are less confident in implementing
technology with teachers who are proficient.
3. On-demand help for teachers implementing technology through support from our
technology specialist.
Principal will set a schedule for the days and times our technology specialist will
be on campus to provide on-demand help with technology.
Teachers or students may utilize the technology specialist during these set times
for short tutorials, brainstorming ideas, or trouble shooting.
4. Required Internet Safety Course for Digital Citizenship
Provide an on-line Safety Course for all staff that improves knowledge of
appropriate internet usage, copyright laws, electronic access, professional liability
as it relates to technology, and internet safety instruction. This training will help
teachers serve as role models of responsible digital citizenship.
Provide an on-line Safety Course for students that teach proper behaviors and
expectations of digital citizenship in their roles as students.
6. Provide an on-line Safety Course for parents that teach proper behaviors and
expectations of digital citizenship in their roles as parents and safeguards for
keeping their child safe from predators at home. Open Lab times will be available
for parents who do not have internet at home to complete.
Each teacher, staff member, and student will be required to sign that they have
met this expectation and taken this course.
Parents will be encouraged to complete and sign that they have met this
expectation.
Week 4 Part 3 Evaluation
Evaluation Methods for Professional Development

Peer Observations/Reports (Buddies and Mentors)
Campus Professional Development Surveys
Technology Proficient Survey
STaR Chart Data
National Speak-Up Survey Data
