Continued Support
The first year of teaching online can be very similar to the first year of teaching -- supporting your teachers in their first years in this new learning environment is essential.
“Plans are nothing; planning is everything.”Dwight D. Eisenhower
Obama’s ConnectEd Initiative:
“connect 99 percent of America’s students to the internet through high-speed broadband and high-speed wireless within 5 years...and equip them with the tools to make the most of it”
What infrastructure will you need?
• Internet Connectivity & Bandwidth
o California K-12 High Speed Network (K-12 HSN) Providing centralized connection points to each County Office of Education Continues to increase bandwidth as needed
o Connectivity to the School Site (Last Mile) Continuing work by K-12 HSN and County IT
Departments - additional financial resources needed
What infrastructure will you need?
• Internet Connectivity & Bandwidth
o Last 6 Inches Sites need infrastructure that involves cabling that
enables Wireless Access Points for student/teacher end devices.
o Internet Access at home With the growing need to provide a 21st century
education environment such as flipped classroom, there is a high need for students to have access from home and/or after hours on site for continued learning.
Will everyone play nice?
● Learning Management System (LMS)
● Learning Content Management System (LCMS)
● Student Information System (SIS)
Have you also considered?
● Synchronous Tools (Webex, Google Hangout, Adobe Connect, Skype)
● End Devices (laptops, netbooks,
tablets, smartphones and more)
● Tech Support and Trouble Ticket Software
What will it cost?
• Total cost of ownership needs to be examined
• Includes both direct and indirect costs of technology tools
• Online and blended learning are long term commitments
• Need to factor in initial and long term costs for procurement, implementation and support of technology.
