Vision Statement

All districts complete this section of the district technology plan.

If your district has a vision statement that includes the use of ICT (information and communication technologies), use it for your

technology plan. If not, write a statement complementary to your districts vision that sets a bar for the integration of technologyinto teaching and learning.

Students today enjoy the connectedness of social networking; it is part of their very being. Our goal is to bring instruction intothat cloud as an educational network to teach the content required in ways that inspire online responsibility and ethics in this

new, very connected world so that students develop the collaborative, participatory, and communicative skills required in theirfutures.

The Nespelem School Mission Statement is "To enable a child to be a thinking, caring, productive person using high academic

standards in a positive environment." Considering our mission statement and given that the purpose of education is to prepare

students to be productive and caring adults, we believe that technology is a necessary tool for learning that expands our

instructional repertoire and is the vehicle that maximizes the capacity of all teachers and learners. It is the vision of Nespelem

School District that students be engaged in a stimulating academic environment and an engaging, highly relevant, rigorous

curriculum student-centered and focused inquiry-based learning.

Specifically, we envision that technology is available and effectively supported for all students and staff in all classrooms:

To provide global access to information

To meet the curricular needs of all learners

To provide access to the general curriculum To refine critical thinking skills and stimulate creativity

To provide a medium for expression and communication

To create, connect, and collaborate as responsible and ethical online citizens

To collect, assess and share performance information

To interpret assessment data to drive instruction so all students learn and progress in meeting and exceeding standards

To improve the effectiveness of administrative tasks

To provide skills and proficiencies necessary for the workforce

We envision using technology to further a learning community where:

Students are engaged in a challenging, highly relevant curriculum focused on inquiry-based, hands-on learning in which studentscommunicate, collaborate, and create communities with educators, parents, and other students, exhibiting higher order thinking anddemonstrating knowledge. Students are comfortable using technology. Students take responsibility for their own educational success.

Teachers use technology to support, differentiate, and communicate learning across the curriculum.They apply meaningful assessmentdata gathered with technology to guide instruction in order to present students with a challenging curriculum designed to help eachindividual student develop a depth of understanding and critical thinking skills.They function as coaches, mentors, advocates, andmanagers of information. Through ongoing, comprehensive professional development, all teachers acquire the knowledge and skills tointegrate technology into a challenging and interdisciplinary curriculum, whichaddresses students' specific needs, developmentallevels and learning styles, providing frequent communication of classroom activities to families. Teachers use technology formeaningful assessment data that informs their practice and allows students to exhibit higher order thinking and to demonstrateknowledge.

Teachers and Program Facilitators use and facilitate student use of technology to communicate, collaborate, and create communitieswith educators, parents, students, and additional stakeholders.

Administrative functions, including those performed by instructional staff, are fully automated, thereby allowing more of the schoolsystem's energy and resources to be focused on student education. The schools become an environment where all students and staff have ready access to a full range of current technology, software

tools, and applications. The schools have knowledgeable staff and external resources such as parents, community members, andbusiness, higher education and network resources to further the curriculumgoals.

Therefore, Nespelem School Districts Technology Plan demonstrates a commitment to increasing technology in each classroom and to

providing ongoing and continuous training to all of its staffand students in the use of and integration of technology as the necessary tools for

teaching, learning, and collaborating in all subject areas and for lifelong learning; technology is an essentialelement that brings about greater

productivity, provides meaningful assessment data, and empowers instruction and learning.

Worksheet Technology Goals

Technology Goal Technology Literacy of 8th-Grade Students

The total number ofGrade 8 Students ranked at Tier 1 on the PILOT Technology Literacy Survey will increase by at least 5% per year

compared to the previous years survey with a total increase of 15% by 2013. The total number of teachers ranked at Tier 2 on the PILOT

Technology Integration Survey will increase by at least 5% per year compared to the previous years survey with a total increase of 15% by2013.

Strategy

Computers will be used in the classroom so students are engaged in a challenging, highly relevant curriculum focused on inquiry-based,hands-on learning in which students communicate, collaborate, and create communities with educators, parents, and other students,exhibiting higher order thinking and demonstrating knowledge. The computer lab and library media center will augment the opportunities forstudents to incorporate suitable technology to engage in active participation, exploration, and research.

Rationale

In a report that examined the results of over 300 studies of technology use, authors concluded the need for more than one computer forstudents in the classroom: Furthermore, classroom connectivity in general and, more specifically, connectivity with four or more computerswere found to be important factors in predicting whether teachers directed student research involving the Internet. (Sivin-Kachala & Bialo,2000) Kelley, L., & Ringstaff, C. (2002). Finally, computers in the classroom resulted in the best learning improvement: The results from thisprogram indicate that student outcomes are most improved by the distributed model. Students who had access to computers in theirclassrooms showed more improvement in basic skills than those who received instruction in computer labs. In addition, teachers who hadcomputers in the classroom reported greater confidence and competence in using computers and more time using the computers (Mann,1999; Mannet al., 1999). The learning return on our educational technology investment: A review of findings from research. Retrieved fromWestEd Web site: http://www.WestEd.org/online_pubs/learning_return.pdf

Evaluation Procedure

Each year grade eight students will complete the PILOT Technology Integration Survey to demonstrate progress from Tier 1 to Tier 2, and

from Tier 2 to Tier 3 as a result of increased application of technology to apply knowledge in real world contexts to create, collaborate, andcommunicate in learning communities to exhibit higher order thinking and to demonstrate knowledge.

Technology Goal Technology Integration Skills of Teachers

Technology Goals Note: these goals will change depending on our PILOT surveys

Goal:

The total number of teachers ranked at Tier 1 on the PILOT Technology Integration Survey will increase by at least 5% per year compared to

the previous years survey with a total increase of 30% by 2013. The total number of teachers ranked at Tier 2 on the PILOT Technology

Integration Survey will increase by at least 5% per year compared to the previous years survey with a total increase of 15% by 2013.

Strategy

All teachers will participate in professional development in the area of Technology Integration. The goal will be to provide teachers with skills

and strategies that will allow them to use technology tools to teach the standards, to integrate technology into the curriculum, to promote a

student-centered environment that assists and encourages technological skills, to use assessment data to drive instruction, and to access

productivity tools for class data management, for communication with students, staff, and community, and for collaboration on curricular and

instructional goals.

Rationale

The goal of technology integration is to use technology seamlessly so that the technology itself becomesa transparent and integral

toolto teach core curriculum. Technology & Curriculum Integration (http://www.guide2digitallearning.com/integration)

Digital Learning Environments A variety of studies indicate that technology will have little effect unless teachers are adequately and

appropriately trained (Office of Technology Assessment, 1995; Coley, Cradler, & Engel, 1997; Silverstein et al., 2000; Studies suggest that

teachers who receive formal training use technology more frequently for instruction, and this use can lead to significant improvements in

student achievement. According to a report by the National Center for Education Statistics (1999b), teachers who report feeling prepared to

teach using technology use it more frequently and in a greater variety of ways, and are more likely to have their students use technology as a

tool in tasks that require higher-order thinking. In a report that examined the results of over 300 studies of technology use, authors

concluded that teacher training was the most significant factor influencing the effective use of educational technology to improve student

achievement. Specifically, the report states that students of teachers with more than ten hours of training significantly outperformed students

of teachers with five or fewer training hours (Sivin-Kachala & Bialo, 2000; Kelley, L., & Ringstaff, C. (2002). In addition the report

demonstrates the need for more than one computer for students in the classroom: Furthermore, classroom connectivity in general and, more

specifically, connectivity with four or more computers were found to be important factors in predicting whether teachers directed student

research involving the Internet. Finally, computers in the classroom resulted in the best learning improvement: The results from this

classrooms showed more improvement in basic skills than those who received instruction in computer labs. In addition, teachers who had

Each year all staff (Teachers, Librarian-Teachers, Administration) will complete in the PILOT Technology Integration Survey to demonstrate

progress from Tier 1 to Tier 2, and from Tier 2 to Tier 3. In addition, we will reflect each semester on the Key Question: What are you doing

or teaching right now that you could do more effectively and efficiently with technology? Start with the end in mind in our Online Teacher

Professional Development Repository, which will serve as a record and resource in the application of productivity, curricular, and instructional

strategies and results for other staff members to try. Analysis of Professional Development Evaluations will determine further needs in

Professional Development. Data will be analyzed for student improvement in NWEA/MAP scores.

Write a high-level overview that explains how the building(s) in your district are addressing the need to integrate technology into teaching

and learning, as part of their school improvement plan(s).

The Nespelem School Mission Statement is "To enable a child to be a thinking, caring, productive person using high

academic standards in a positive environment." Considering our mission statement and given that the purpose ofeducation is to prepare students to be productive and caring adults, we begin the journey to adapt technology as a necessary tool for

learning that expands our instructional repertoire and becomes the vehicle that maximizes the capacity of all teachers and learners to meet

the goals of our schoolwide plan, which include:

Continuous improvement in all student learning by using data to determine student needs and adjust instruction through collaborationby staff to provide an engaging, highly relevant, rigorous curriculum with continuous intervention and supplemental programs,

especially in math;

Provide a focus on professional staff development with the use of waiver days for collaboration, data analysis, and planning

interventions;

Ensure student readiness for joining the technological society in which they must function by providing access to and use of up-to-date

technology to meet the learning needs of all students, including use of technology to support learning and as intervention or learning

accelerator;

Establish partnerships to foster and encourage student learning through a school website with information, activities, family access to

teachers, student achievement, events, and weekly letters home from classes to families;

In order to meet these goals and implement the school-wide plan, Nespelem School District will begin the process of moving to classroom-centered technology:

Teachers will apply for classroom technology by explaining: What are you doing or teaching right now that you could do moreeffectively and efficiently with technology?

The technology tool goals are two-fold:

o Teacher tools for instruction (computers, projectors , document cameras)

o Student tools for technology integration: 1:4 student to computer ratio or better

Use of technology will be accelerated with bi-monthly Professional Development Sessions that allow teachers to:

o Learn how to improve student learning through project/inquiry based curricula



13/24

12/30/09 16:36 A12/P12o Provide application sessions in teacher use of technology for projects, productivity, and presentations.

o Develop technology plans aligned to standards to improve student learning through project/inquiry based curricula

o Create a repository of teacher-created technology plans for other staff to try

Teachers increase productivity by using technology tools such as wikis, blogs, and Google Apps and math curriculum computer

programs and online textbooks for

o collaborating with each other for curriculum and data analysis

o communicating strategies and lessons through blogs/wikis/Google docso designing interventions for student improvement based on assessment data

o providing students and families with math strategies and lessons

o differentiating instruction to meet student needs,

o and developing weekly newsletters/blogs for parents.

Students actively engage in challenging inquiry and project based curriculum, taking ownership of their learning by planning, self-

assessing, producing, and sharing their learning as they communicate, collaborate, and create communities with educators, parents,

and other students, exhibiting higher order thinking and demonstrating knowledge. Students incorporate suitable technology to engage

in active participation, exploration, and research in all content areas, especially math

Overall, by focusing on our school-wide plan to improve student learning especially in the area of math, our process for planning professional

development, adding technology in classrooms, and developing a challenging curriculum, we will meet the goals for integrating technology:

Educators use technology to enhance and differentiate instruction in order to present students with a challenging curriculum designed

to help each individual student develop a depth of understanding and critical thinking skills.

Educators use technology for meaningful assessment data that informs their practice and allows students to exhibit higher order

thinking and to demonstrate knowledge.

Educators use and facilitate student use of technology to communicate, collaborate, and create communities with educators, parents,

students, and additional stakeholders.
