Technology Plan Design

As part of the community’s growth, large technology firms moved into the community and while they were willing to assist local schools, they also expected high school graduates to be skilled technology workers (MacDonald, 2006). To meet this need, the school board adopted a goal of providing a technology resource teacher in every school within the next three years. In addition, the school board had a five-year plan to increase and support instruction and instructional leadership in schools and improve student assessment scores on state exams in mathematics. In two years they planned to reduce language

This position paper is presented to: Richter Park School District. It argues in favor of additions to the district facilities, policies, and/or procedures to infuse technology into the programs at Richter Park High School with the primary focus of creating access to the internet to connect the school to the students, parents, and community.

Cambridge Behavioral Hospital currently uses a Change Theory. Strategy for most organizations is about change and focus. A firm strategy starts with knowing the external and internal forces that impact the organization’s ability to achieve its most important goals, and then steadily making the necessary changes to direct those forces. “A validation (or invalidation) of the strategic assumptions reinvigorates strategic thinking and provides a basis for investigating whether to change the strategy” (Swayne, Duncan & Ginter, 2008).

The organization strategic plan consists of addressing clinical quality, growth, and becoming a larger part of the community, and providing long term value. The annual report states the following strategic goals (Bon Secours, 2012):

This year my district is required to submit a new technology plan. The final draft of this plan has been completed and this needs analysis focuses specifically on “Objective 3.4: Increase the number of teachers with updated websites meeting district standards as recommended by ISTE-T”.

This paper is a personal technology plan that includes my personal philosophy on integrating technology in the classroom as well as my professional goals concerning technology in the classroom. My Mission and Vision Statement are included as well as a plan for communications, integrating technology, software to support assessment, and technology ethics for a strong guideline in the classroom. Although this plan will need to be revised as advances in technology are made this is strong ground work that I can build on as a professional educator. Using this plan I can ensure that my students are using the latest

"Total Quality Management (TQM) is a participative management style that stresses total staff commitment to "customer" satisfaction (Eskimo, 2001)." Quicken Loans utilizes TQM along with the other management styles to provide the high quality of service to their clients. Quicken Loans expresses Total Quality Management in their ISMs. The ISMs Are: Obsessed with finding a better way, Responding with a sense of urgency is the ante to play and Every client. Every time. No exceptions. No excuses (Quicken Loans, 2008). These three ISMs express the care of their clients and illustrate the things that need to be done to ensure that TQM is still effective and efficient within the organization. Quicken Loans focuses on creating a lifelong relationship with

Creating a new idea that can potentially lead to a change for the better cannot be successful unless it is implemented. Implementation is carrying out the idea, and presenting it (TechTarget, 2016). In order to implement a change, there needs to be a plan. This paper will describe the plan to implement the change, discuss communication strategies, educational requirements, safety issues, and regulations regarding the change, and discuss ways to support the plan of change.

When it came to how confident they felt in utilizing and implementing these

Our goal is to make 3D worlds more realistic and immersive with the 3D MA platform. The 3D MA platform is designed to be compatible with VR equipment, such as the CAVE™ or head-mounted displays (HMD), turning virtual worlds into powerful real-life experiences. Our applications and domains described will be based with the augmentation which can take on a number of different forms. In all our applications the augmented reality presented to the user will enhances that person's performance in and perception of the virtual world. Our ultimate goal is to create a system such that the user cannot tell the difference between the real world and the virtual augmentation of it.

As a classroom teacher and EdTech TOSA, “technology projects” were never the end goal for my students. Instead, technology was used to facilitate student inquiry and creativity. Designing integrated units, which required

We were able to present an Instructional Technology Plan that guide major adoptions in technology for the schools with special emphasis on the integration of technology to teaching and learning. Once implementation began we were able to see Interactive Whiteboards in every classroom in the High School and most core content area classrooms in the middle school. Elementary was reserved to a second year and every classroom and School Library was included in the initiative. The plan was owned by the stakeholders and they were engaged in professional development to take full advantage of the technologies.
