4 Organization Leadership and Planning New Prague Area Schools (ISD 721) uses three teams to guide the leadership and planning of district technology. Each team leader is under the supervision of the Superintendent: (1) Support a. Director of i. Lead technician 1. Network Technician 2. Web Technician 3. Building Technicians (2) a. Tech Assistants (3) (2) Development a. Directory of Teaching, Learning, and Assessment i. Building Principals ii. Mentor/Mentee Coordinator 1. Building Teacher Representatives (3) Integration a. Director of i. District Integration Specialist 1. Building Integration Leaders a. Grade-Level Tech Integration Representatives These teams work together to develop a technology plan that aligns with the mission, vision, values, and priorities of New Prague Area Schools (as outlined in the NPAS Strategic Plan - s meet weekly to discuss, review, and recommend agenda items that are communicated with their respective teams on a monthly basis. Needs Assessment To help assess our instructional and infrastructural technology needs, teams used the survey tools created by the Minnesota Education Taskforce (METT). The results and feedback from 99 district staff members guided the planning process of the four state required components: (1) Needs Assessment (2) Goals and Strategies (3) Professional Development Plan (4) Evaluation The following statistics highlight the teacher survey results: (1) Skill Level: 19% Leaders 39% Average 39% Average (2) CMS (): 53% Fully Prepared 29% Somewhat 09% Not (3) Management: 68% Fully Prepared 19% Somewhat 05% Not (4) Photo Editing: 44% Fully Prepared 33% Somewhat 17% Not 3

Learning: Engage and Empower b. Assessment: Measure What Matters c. Teaching: Prepare and Connect d. Infrastructure: Access and Enable e. Productivity: Redesign and Transform (3) International Society for in Education (ISTE - (4) National Educational Standards (NETS - a. Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity b. Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments c. Model Digital-Age Work and Learning d. Promote and Model Digital Citizenship and Responsibility e. Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership The NETP presents a model of learning powered by technology, with goals and recommendations in five essential areas: learning, assessment, teaching, infrastructure, and productivity. These areas were used to guide and set the framework of our district technology goals. In 2006, New Prague Area Schools adopted the ISTE-NETS to assess students,, and 4
6 administrators technology literacy. The standards were also used to develop benchmarks to ensure our technology goals are measureable and attainable. The five district technology goals are listed below (see Appendix A for additional details): (1) Learning: Engage and Empower a. While preparing our students for the 21st century, NPAS will use the NETS-T to ensure that 100% of our certified staff master the required technology skills by the end of the school year. (2) Assessment: Measure What Matters a. 100% our staff will use technology to collect immediate feedback, analyze data, implement individualized instruction, and align curriculum to improve student achievement by the end of the 2015 school year. (3) Teaching: Prepare and Connect a. 100% of New Prague Area certified staff will engage and collaborate using online resources to improve learning, assessment, and instructional practices through the school year. (4) Infrastructure: Access and Enable a. 100% of New Prague Area Schools students and staff will have anytime, anywhere access to district resources and technology support required for research, communication, multimedia content creation, and collaboration by the 2015 school year. (5) Productivity: Redesign and Transform a. 100% of the students in NPAS will be provided online learning opportunities in grades 7 through 12 by the end of the school year. Professional Development Plan New Prague Area Schools provides a range of professional development opportunities in a variety of formats to help staff meet the district technology integration goals. Most of the training is presented by our District Integration Specialist and Elementary Integration Leaders through before and after school TIP Sessions ( Integration Program). TIP Sessions are short, 30-minute workshops with three teaching components: (1) What is it? technology topic introduction (2) How does it work? brief technology demonstration (3) How are using it in the classroom? examples of technology integration TIP Sessions offer a basic understanding of instructional technologies. Our professional development goal is to provide staff with scaffolding support to help foster independent learning. For example, our TIP website ( contains links to TIP Sheets, TIP Videos, and self-paced, online TIP Workshops. The District Integration Specialist, Elementary Integration Leaders, and Grade-Level Representatives are available for one-on-one coaching as needed. Our Development Day (SDD) workshops provide additional opportunities for staff to learn 5
7 new technology integration skills and strategies. Typically, SDD is held two times per school year. members attend three sessions selecting from workshop options each session. Not all workshops are technology presentations, but each session offers multiple technology opportunities. As a TIES consortium member district, our staff has the opportunity to attend TIES training workshops as part of our membership fee. We have several staff members who have taken advantage of this opportunity. Our leadership teams will continue to promote the TIES workshops, webinars, onsite trainings, and annual technology conference. TIP ( Incentive Program) The overall district trend has been an increase in the number of integrating technology in their classrooms. This has resulted in classroom technology requests that surpass our current technology budget. To maximize the district s benefit-to-cost ratio, the leadership teams developed the Incentive Program ( TIP provides training, support, and equipment/software for who request technology for their classrooms. The goal of the program is to help acquire the knowledge, skills, and equipment necessary to effectively and efficiently integrate technology into the curriculum. There are three components to the TIP: (1) Learn: Attend technology integration training opportunities. These include before/after school TIP sessions, online TIP and TIES workshops, and scheduled one-on-one trainings with a technology integration specialist. (2) Create: Create a technology integrated Unit Plan based on NPAS curriculum, MN state standards, and the NETS*S. The Unit Plan includes a student assessment and sample project. (3) Share: Present one technology integration topic to colleagues at a staff, department, or team meeting. (Notify your technology integration specialist prior to the date/time of your presentation.) Evaluation As described in the Organization Leadership and Planning section, the technology plan is developed, monitored, and assessed by three leadership teams: (1) Support (2) Development (3) Integration s meet weekly to discuss, review, and recommend agenda items that are communicated with their respective teams on a monthly basis. The technology plan is a living document used to guide technology-related decisions in the district. Appendix A details the action plans for each goal, established timeline, person(s) responsible, resources available, and assessment method to measure success. 6
8 Representatives from each team meet annually to review and recommend additions or modifications to the technology plan. The drafted plan is presented to each team for feedback. This communication process may require several revisions before final submission to the School Board for approval.
