Technology Plan Critique

December 16, 1999

DEMOGRAPHICS

 None provided. Cannot tell what grade levels this school covers. Possibly 11-12?

STRENGTHS

  • Performance indicators for each goal are listed
  • Appealing cover page

UNEXPECTED FINDINGS

  • Contents page doesn't match up with document (Mission statement is on page 3, not page 5)
  • A major role of the school is to produce teaching materials
  • Library technology is also listed

EXPECTED, BUT DIDN'T FIND

  • A listing of the Technology Planning Committee members
  • A financial plan is mentioned, but not available
  • Team teaching of computer applications is fine, but what about help on a day-to-day basis?

RECOMMENDATIONS

  • Plan is out of date, and the new one isn't available yet.
  • Tell us where you are located, it is difficult to determine where this school is located
  • Highly hardware oriented, how is technology going to be used in the teaching process?
  • Implement a Help Desk to assist with the daily questions that come up about technology use.

RATING

1-10 with 10 being the highest
