A fresh look at technology planning for schools

This book is designed to help educational leaders, decision makers, and teachers wade through the complexities of aligning technology planning with learning goals. Organized around a problem-solving model based on solution fluency, the authors outline how to:

  • Address state, regional, or provincial standards
  • Improve test scores - Meet curricular requirements
  • Foster relevant staff development
  • Provide measurable accountability for technology expenditures

Included are sidebars with advice and comments from educators who have successfully integrated technology initiatives with learning goals. Their experiences help light the path through the journey toward getting it right for 21st century learners.
