NETS for Administrators

Student engagement and teacher buy-in are critical pieces in providing effective technology-supported instruction. However, to sustain this shift, site and district administrators must take action. Think about the strategies used by administrators at your school or district to support effective technology-supported instruction.

Read the NETS for Administrators handout. How do the NETS for Administrators support student achievement? How would implementation of these standards impact your school improvement plan? What positive outcomes do you predict for administrators? What challenges might administrators face? How can administrators insure that the shift to use of effective technology-supported instruction is sustained over time?

Discuss your thoughts with your team. Which of the team's ideas are most important to share with the total group?

Just one person may edit a wiki page at a time. Choose a typist. When your team is ready to add its answers, the typist needs to:
