Duncan Indep School District, 2014 - 2017 Technology PlanAssessment - Current Use & Identified Needs

District's Current Use of TechnologyAs mobile computing matures Duncan Schools is moving forward with iPad deployments. The initiative beganwith making Administrators and Staff comfortable with the new technology. We are now moving forward withstudent pilot programs and investigatng the use of textbooks on the devices.

We currently utilize specialized software to integrate technology into the day to day classroom experience. Some of the most popular titles include PowerPoint, PhotoShop, Final Cut Pro, Destination Reading andMath, and Think Through Math

With the implementation of the common core curriculum and our curriculum mapping efforts, the district sawthe need to more effectively utilize the use of our labs and software. Due to recent budget cuts and afteranalyzing some assessment data, the district made the decision to implement a series of pre and post testsalong with benchmark testing in the areas of Math and Reading. The district currently uses DIBELS andAimsWeb for benchmark assessments. Software will be used as part of the pre and post testing. This seriesof tests will help the classroom teacher determine which piece of software is best suited for the student.

In addition we have increased lab capacity at our Middle School to allow for Computer Literacy. As testpreparation consumed more and more lab time we felt it necessary to expand our ability to teach technologynot just use it for studying and reinforcement.

In the business back end we have streamlined many of our systems implementing a new online jobapplication service and a streamlined Technology Help Request System.

Identified NeedsIncrease amount of internet bandwidth due to rich web 2.0 web access and mandated on-line testing.

Centralize network management by doing a district wide deployment of Active Directory.

Develop and install Wifi Networks as funds become available to support iPad initiatives.

Upgrade from 20 Mbps AVPN to 250 Mbps Managed Internet within the 2014-15 school year.

Upgrade from 100 MB CSME WAN to 10 GB/1GB ASE WAN within the 2014-15 school year.

ResponsibilityTechnology committee

Evaluation ProcessEvaluation is considered a critical component of the program and will be conducted in an ongoing mannerthroughout the implementation of the technology plan. Records will be kept on the following:

•Equipment purchases (new and upgrades), installation of wiring, charges for transmission lines•Equipment use•Professional development offerings and teachers and librarians participating in programs•Results of evaluation instruments for each professional development offering•Programs offered to the community including lifelong learning and adult literacy and numbers attending•Results of evaluation instruments administered to participants in community offerings and results compiled•Student progress using new software tracked by management program and standardized scores.

Surveys will be administered to those participating in training opportunities and other activities to determinesatisfaction with the programs. Adjustments will be made accordingly. Student academic progress will betracked through the use of both standardized testing and regular classroom evaluation techniques.

The Technology Committee in conjunction with the coordinator of each event or teacher of each class willdetermine the type, quantity, and method of collecting evaluation data for the event or class.

Evaluation Timeframe

Technology plan will be edited annually by technology committee to reflect the annual evaluation findings.

Evaluation Findings

The superintendent will disseminate information of the status of technology in the district to the community.

Evaluation Analysis - Annual Updates Only

Duncan was able to see several goals achieved in the last year. Our new email system is running and servingapproximately 405 staff members. Server upgrades, PC inventory recycling and upgrades are on schedule asdictated in our goals, and our Professional Development program is on target to continually train and prepareour teachers to educate in the 21st century using technology.

Our PC inventory recycling program is 100% complete. Each school administrator was responsible fordeciding how to spend the avaiable technology bond monies. These purchases were implemented during the09-10 and 10-11 school years with 2012 being the first year to step back and evaluate the success of therollout.

2012 and 2013 revealed what we had hoped. Newer and more reliable technology increased staff usage andengagement in the classroom. Our wireless implementation is going slow but effectively.

Through our professional development initiatives we were pleasantly surprised by the increase in not only thelevel of skills obtained by our staff but added buy in from those who did not seem as excited by the technologyavailable.

EvaluationDuncan Indep School District, 2014 - 2017 Technology Plan

Creating a district data center was not realized due to lack of funding. This remains a goal and will beaddressed when funding is earmarked. A centralized technology inventory is still in the works. At this point allsites maintain their own; and we feel a centralized approach will be better for all involved.

New innovations in interactive presentation systems such as whiteboards and "jeopardy" like Q&A systemsare proving to be an exceptional way to use technology which not only aids in learning but does a much betterjob of keeping students engaged. In addition streamlined ways to create podcasts and video streams willprove invaluable to teachers and students alike. Duncan Schools will continue to search in every direction forthe latest innovations using trade shows, tech conferences, publications, and more.

As tablet computing has emerged we are now deploying iPads to administration and teachers to get themcomfortable with the technology. professional devlopment is being offered to prepare them for the next stagewhich is student use. We intend to pilot classroom usage over the next 3 years.
