23. “An effective technology plan is based on the shared vision of
educators, parents, community members, and business
leaders who have technological expertise. It ensures that
technology strengthens existing curricula and supports
meaningful, engaged learning for all students. It also
specifies how the technology will be paid for and how its use
will be supported” (November & Staudt, 1998).

Notes de l'éditeur
3 year plan; updated yearly
Committee led by Technology Director and consisting of representatives from each campus, superintendent, assistant
Total student enrollment – 8728, with almost 80% economically disadvantaged
All 12 campuses completed the Texas Campus STaR Chart
Almost all strategies are In Progress…a few are just in the planning stages and a couple have been completed
All but one objective falls into the Infrastructure for Technology category in accordance with the Texas long Range Plan for Technology. Objective 1.5 falls under Teaching and Learning
All in progress
Most of the money spent in 2011
November and staudt wrote in their Critical Issue article that …. I believe that the CISD technology plan is just that and as this plan expires after next year, I will be excited to see what the new plan will hold.
