Hold contests between classes or

for teachers who regularly integrate

technology.

Prizes could be something as small

as a lottery ticket or work with the

campus principals for a "jeans day"

pass.

Ask local businesses for coupons.

Have Contests Regularly

Get a few teachers and classes

on board to try new technology

tools that come out.

They can be the first ones to

try it and explore its

capabilities.

Develop a “Techie Tribe”

Work with your Regional Service

Centers or organizations like TCEA

to highlight great things your

campus is doing, either at local

events or conferences.

Work with businesses in the

community to hang up or highlight

technology projects the students

are creating.

Work with Organizations & Businesses

Reward those teachers who come to

training. Give them a badge or a

certificate.

Get a small door prize and have a

drawing. Door prizes could be

anything from candy to a "free duty"

pass.

Provide some snacks during the

training.

Reward Those Who Come

Create a regular, professional

looking publication.

Send it to teachers, staff,

community members.

This is a great way to spread

the word about the great things

happening on your campus.

Create and Send Newsletters

Develop a place on campus where

teachers can go to learn about

technology.

This could be a place where they go to

get training or read technology-related

magazines, like the Tech Edge.

Invest in a few books that teachers

could check out or set up stations to

listen to podcasts.

Develop a Tech Center

Create posters or infographics

that promote technology use on

campus.

Hang them on walls, in teacher's

lounges, or in bathroom stalls.

Share them with community

members.

Create Posters or Infographics

Create a place where teachers

and students can video tape

themselves or where interviews

can be conducted about

technology use on campus.

Place the videos on the campus

website.

Create a Video Production Studio
