Executive Summary:Because teachers have learned to use their SMART Boards without official training, many have developed inefficient habits and ways of accomplishing tasks. This instructional system will provide a complete and uniform understanding of how to use and implement SMART Notebook most effectively. Teachers will acquire more uniform and consistent methods for manipulation of the SMART Notebook and its technologies after attending the training sessions. They will have a clear understanding of the concepts and an ability to implement the methods taught during each face-to-face session. Finally, teachers will receive immediate feedback and assistance with implementation during initial integration into the classroom.Using a needs assessment, trainers will determine current expectations for use, buy-in from educators, current ability levels of the teachers, as well as use in development of the topic analysis in order to define the facts, concepts, principles, and rules that make up the final instruction. The procedural analysis will determine instructional steps needed to achieve the goals. The Level One instruction will focus on the entry level SMART Notebook skills, Level Two instruction addresses advanced skills.A formative evaluation will focus on answering questions that help in forming the instructional system. These questions will be geared toward determining skill level, learning style, and improving the system. Additionally, a summative evaluation will be completed to determine improvements in understanding, level of implementation, and the overall effectiveness of the sessions.An analysis of the learners will be completed to assist with creating learner specific sessions. This analysis will cover background, experience, training, learning style, teacher goals and motivations. Additionally, a contextual analysis will be used to develop an appropriate training for the learners’ needs. This analysis will focus on logistics, availability, training site, equipment needs, and other such instructional needs.

Desired Results:I-A Broad Goals and Big Ideas Many teachers are forced to learn how to use their SMART Notebook and the technology that accompanies it either on their own, or with the help of someone who learned in that manner. Generally teachers are not given the opportunity to be trained by someone who has had official SMART Notebook training. Because of this, teachers may have developed habits and ways of accomplishing tasks that may not be the easiest or most efficient route.
The intent of this face-to-face instructional system is to provide both a complete and uniform understanding of how to use and implement SMART Notebook in the most effective manner. We seek to educate K-12 teachers on the features of the SMART Notebook and components of its peripheral technologies, in order to facilitate increased student involvement, engagement, interactivity, and - in the end - increased student achievement. Each teacher will begin at Level One in order to ensure manipulations of the board and its technologies are completed in the most efficient manner. Upon completion of each training session, teachers will be given time to practice the covered materials, and will be observed implementing them before the next session to guarantee understanding before moving on.
Goal 1: Teachers will acquire more uniform and consistent methods for manipulation of the SMART Notebook and its technologies after attending the training sessions.
Goal 2: Teachers will have a clear understanding of the concepts and an ability to implement the methods taught during each face-to-face session.
Goal 3: Teachers will be provided with immediate feedback and assistance with implementation during initial integration into the classroom.

Evidence of Acceptable Results:II-A Formative EvaluationKey Questions:
1. Is the instructional content of the training appropriate to the teachers skill level?2. Is the level of learning acceptable?3. Have you been able to incorporate the skills presented in the training as interactive lessons in
your classroom?4. What revisions in the training seem necessary?5. Were all possible questions answered during the training?6. What is currently missing from the training that you feel would be useful?
Approach one: Survey of Participating TeachersParticipating teachers will complete an online survey after the second, forth, and sixth session for both Level 1 and Level 2 training. The intention of the survey is to gather information about the training sessions themselves and to get answers to the key questions above. An example of one of the online surveys can be found in Appendix A. Approach two: Trainer Observation and Interviews with Teacher ParticipantsDuring the school year while teachers are taking the level one or level two training, one of the trainers will observe a lesson being presented by the participants in their classroom. The trainer will meet with the participant afterward and discuss interactive lesson creation, technique, and presentation. The trainer will offer suggestions as well as give the participant an opportunity to ask questions. Trainers will complete an observation and interview form during their classroom visit. This will include a section for the trainer to complete regarding the effectiveness of the training, student misconceptions and suggested changes to the training. The form can be found in Appendix A. II-B Summative EvaluationKey Questions:
1. Have teachers improved their understanding of the SMART Notebook program?2. Have teachers implemented the skills taught in the training sessions?3. Were the trainer observation and interview sessions helpful?4. Were there any specific Notebook skills that you wanted to learn about that were not covered in
the training sessions?5. What is your opinion of the format of the training? (Six one hour sessions for each level spaced
two weeks apart.)6. Are teachers using the available resources to get help when thy have questions?7. What do you feel will be the long-term benefits to this training and using the SMART Notebook
program?
Approach one: Repeat Skills SurveyParticipating teachers will be sent an end of training SMART Notebook checklist similar to the original checklist sent to the same teachers when determine the training needs. The checklist encompasses different aspects of the SMART Notebook program that were addressed during the training. Teachers will receive the repeat skills survey after completion of Level 2 training and again six weeks later. This checklist will ask teachers to rate their understanding of each skills area as either not familiar, somewhat familiar, or very familiar. Comparison of the before and after training checklists will be used to make modifications to the sessions. The additional survey, sent six weeks after the end of training, will show the long term effects of the training.
P a g e | 13
Approach two: Small Group Guided Discussion with Participating TeachersAfter completion of the Level 1 or Level 2 training, a random group of ten teachers will be chosen to participate in a guided small group discussion. The discussion will be lead by the trainers who will pose questions then record the group’s discussion. After analyzing the responses, necessary revisions will be made to the training. See Appendix A for a script.

P a g e | 15
III-B Contextual Analysis
In order to develop appropriate training, a contextual analysis will need to be conducted.
VI. Orienting ContextA. Immediate Environment Factors
1. Will teachers have ability to attend training?2. Will each teacher have their own computer during training?
B. Organizational Factors1. Will training take place on-site at the teachers’ school, or will another location
be necessary?
VII. Instructional ContextA. Immediate Environment Factors
1. Is the training area a comfortable area (space, temperature) for teachers?
B. Organizational Factors1. Does the administration view these training sessions as valuable to the long-
term goals of the school or district?2. How can teachers show that they’ve mastered these skills?
VIII. Transfer ContextA. Immediate Environment Factors
1. Will there be time during the training session for teachers to practice the skills they learned?
2. Will there be support from other teachers/staff members during training to answer questions?
B. Organizational Factors1. Will there be ongoing support from the training staff and administration?2. Will teachers have access to school laptops with SMART Notebook that they can
take home in order to do work and create notebook files?
The previous information will be obtained through surveys and interviews. A survey will be given to members of the administration involved in SMART Training. This could include principals, vice principals, and technology coordinators. Interviews will be conducted with the trainer and administration to assess the variables that need to be addressed before beginning training.
AssumptionsIn order to develop the training, it will be assumed that each teacher has access to a SMART Board and SMART Notebook in their classroom. Teachers will also have a background knowledge of basic computer skills.
P a g e | 16
III-C Types of Learning Experiences and/or InstructionThe participants for this professional development have a wide range of entering knowledge using SMART Notebooks in their classroom. Some teachers have had their boards for over many years. Several teachers have never received formal training in SMART Notebook software. They have learned different techniques with their boards through trial and error and peer teaching. This professional development plan will begin with the basics of using a SMART interactive white board including setup and hardware. Level One training will be basic use of the SMART Notebook software. Level Two training will have more advanced techniques and focus on interactive lesson development and delivery. Each session will follow M. D. Merrill's principles of instruction (Merrill, 2009).
Activation Principle ● Instruction should activate relevant cognitive structures in learners by having them recall,
describe, or demonstrate relevant prior knowledge or experience. ● Instruction should have learners share previous experience with each other. ● Instruction should have learners recall or acquire a structure for organizing new knowledge.
Demonstration Principle ● Instruction should provide a demonstration of the skill consistent with the type of component
skill: kinds-of, how-to, and what-happens. ● Instruction should provide guidance that relates the demonstration to generalities. ● Instruction should engage learners in peer-discussion and peer-demonstration. ● Instruction should allow learners to observe the demonstration through media that are
appropriate to the content.
Application Principle ● Instruction should have the learner apply learning consistent with the type of component skill:
kinds-of, how-to, and what-happens. ● Instruction should provide intrinsic or corrective feedback. ● Instruction should provide coaching, which should be gradually withdrawn to enhance
application. ● Instruction should engage learners in peer-collaboration.
P a g e | 17
There will be trainers available either by email or phone to assist participants outside of the training sessions. If the teacher is having hardware issues, they may also contact their IT department. Technology technicians are available on a priority basis.
Participants will also be introduced to additional resources that support their use of SMARTNotebook software including:
a. SMART's Training Centerb. SMART Learning Spacec. SMART's support sited. SMART Exchange website
Activate: Ask the learner to recall existing knowledge or experience. The facilitator then relates any new concepts to the learner's existing knowledge. This activation builds a relationship between the new knowledge and what the learner already knows.
Activate: Ask the learner to recall existing knowledge or experience. The facilitator then relates any new concepts to the learner's existing knowledge. This activation builds a relationship between the new knowledge and what the learner already knows.
Demonstrate: The facilitator demonstrates or models the new knowledge to the learner.
Apply:The learners is provided an opportunity to use the new knowledge through hands-on activities or
group discussions. These activities will reinforce the new concept as well as giving them an opportunity to consider how to use the knowledge in their classroom.
