The purpose of this paper is to argue for changes in the district facilities, policies, and/or procedures for internet access to the Richter Park School for students, parents, and community. It is clear that in today’s schools, internet access is perceived as a common feature; however, there are still some school districts who are consistently changing policies, procedures and facilities to improve

I review the Blue Valley School District Acceptable use policy for student’s K-12. Technology use is important for all students, teacher, parents and school districts in order to provide a safe digital learning environment. Technology gives way to valuable educational experience that all students are entitled to. School districts have the responsibility to provide acceptable use policies for the digital devices, and the Internet provided to students, which is owned by the district. Whenever technologies are brought upon school grounds, or to school activities, even when the technologies are not owned by the school the technologies are still subject to adhere to the acceptable use policies. The intended use of technology in education is to open new learning experiences, benefit the student’s education experience, and create skills for future academic endeavors.

This course introduces effective Web design principles and the essential role of the Web designer in today's business environment.

XYZ Charter academy’s mission is to see that no child is left behind and has the same opportunity no matter income bracket(Dr.Harris,2017). XYZ Charter Academy is seeking a technology grant to provide early childhood students with access to their own students at school. This will increase student engagement and teacher student connection. An overview is that student academic performance will increase using technology. There are always two sides to every story. There is some good of using technology in the classroom as well as negative reasons. Our organization has looked into all the objectives and realizes that the students may not always do what they are supposed to do with accessing other websites.

warrant: It is evident in many successful schools the heavy use of the internet in school, because the internet has an enormous pool of usage. Successful schools, such as Palm Desert High School, are built upon technology which help students achieve higher standards than what textbooks alone can offer.

Teacher and student access to websites, blogs, and Google Classroom will continue to increase communication between parents and the school. Formative assessment tools can also support parent involvement by connecting parents to student data. Learning platforms like Google Classroom will allow learning to move beyond the school walls, allowing teacher/student communication after school, on weekends, and during school breaks

The first component of this multiyear plan is to create the short-term goal of assessing and improving accessibility of technology because “Inadequate access to and/or underutilization of instructional technology impedes students’ learning” (Ford & Moore, 2013, p. 407). The “digital divide” that exists among schools is a notable factor and this could help narrow the disparities among student achievement (Ford & Moore, 2013). Therefore, in a two-month timeframe, administrators and the school leadership team would determine the infrastructure of existing technology and analyze funding options for immediate and future needs. This strategy not only enhances the equitable use of technology in the classroom; which affects the school’s accountability ratings, it also provides an evaluation tool to document student achievement. The next step involves the principal collaborating with the Information Technology (IT)

The tools used for mainstream education in America are, at an ever increasing rate, shifting from physical to digital. Schools across the nation have spent the last decade integrating technology into education in an attempt to make learning more engaging for students. As schools join the charge for digital instruction they must heavily evaluate their motives, the realistic applications of new technology, and the consequences it may have on their students.

While at school, has there ever been a great idea for a project or an assignment by a student and they can not wait to start on it at school before they lose their idea? Unlucky for them, their school has web filters set up which inhibit them from finding any quality information on the internet other than the basic, generic sites every other kid gets offered. This issue presents a common occurrence in schools across America and it needs to receive termination all together. The use of the internet persists as a freedom given to almost all Americans, but schools limit student’s first amendment rights by carrying out the use of web filters.

Task 1.0 Identify the basic design elements of a good website and apply these to a teacher website using the Editor in the Schoolwires software

The internet is an endless network of information; however it is not without its dangers, which is why website filters should be used by schools. Many people have been arguing lately over whether or not we should use website blocking software and firewalls in our schools. The answer to this should be very obvious. When you step back and take a look at all the good that these filters do, you realize that we need them in our schools. By using these filters, we make sure our children are not exposed to inappropriate content and media, we make it easier for students to conduct research, and we make sure the internet is not distracting our kids from learning.

What skills will the student learn in the classes, so that the student will know what class they will need for their future career. However, one of the plus side of the page is that is very little blank space, which make the page look organized. Furthermore, this website needs to offer a clear and sharp layout of its content, that allowing the students’ to clearly grasp the information presented. Since the pages fairly basic, because it only has a navigation bar on the left- hand side that allows easy access to the different parts of the website, which these different parts of the website are full of unnecessary information, since it full of outdate information, blank pages, basic information about the major, and links that don’t work. Therefore, I think the website structure should be easy for users to navigate. However, each section should have the necessary information for the students to succeed. The layout should help information to pop out by highlight what is the most important element that the viewer need to know or see. Therefore, to make information to pop out the website should be an interactive experience to bring in more student to this major. In addition, the department should remove all the broken links and the links that sent students to empty pages with no information. Moreover, the page is lacking any social media; which is surprising considering how often teenagers use social media,

It is no secret that technology plays a critical role in our society. In fact, it has become one of the most used items in the world, starting from personal computers and ending in smartphones, thus it was only a matter of time when educational institutions would start to utilize these gadgets in order to improve the overall state of current education. According to a U.S Department of Education (UDE, n.d) report, all 48 states, including the District of Columbia are now offering online education. Additionally, the report states that these schools operate on all kinds of scales, including state scale, district scale and charter scale, thus it would safe to assume that the whole state of current education in the United States is large and the whole approach is clearly technology based. However, despite the

Education is one of the most important professions in the working world. Technology has done many things for us in today’s society especially for education and schools. Technology in the school system has impacted the students and teachers in many positive ways, including virtual field trips, testing tips, teacher resources, class web sites, and lesson plans. With computer use in our schools, we have access to many different sources and various types of learning.
