Culminating Activity:
Planning for Tomorrow
View the school stories from section seven, "Planning for
Tomorrow," from the Principal Connections CD-ROM. In section
seven, select the Scrapbook. Choose a school story that appeals
to you, or think of a story relating to planning for technology
from your own experience.
- Insert and begin Principal Connections.
- From the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen, select
the seventh icon on the left labeled "Tech Plans." This will
take you to the section titled "You're the Leader."
- Select the Picture Frame at the rear of the desk.
Post a message to the discussion. Include the following:
- The name of the school or district whose story you chose, or relate
your own story.
- A statement on how technology is used to
support teaching and learning implied by the vision statement
of the school or district leaders.
- A statement about alternative measures that
might be used to illustrate the return on investment of the school
or district in the story.
- Factors you might construe as influencing
the cost of technology should you attempt to replicate a given
story in your own school, or the actual factors that influenced
your own story.
