Product Description
"This book provides a good overview of the process for developing, implementing, and maintaining a technology plan for a school or school district. The references to current research are most useful and provide valuable sources for further exploration."
Ted McCain
Author, Windows on the Future Close the technology gap in your school! The future is now! Help reshape education in this new millennium by placing technology firmly in the hands of your students. With computers and information technologies changing nearly every aspect of life, it is time to close the technology gap that exists in our schools by taking computers out of the computer lab and integrating them into the general curriculum. The authors demonstrate to educators how to establish a school plan that supports in-class technology usage for students and teachers including: - The context and rationale for the technological shift to the classroom
- Practical integration of computers into the curriculum through administrative planning and essential training
- Key processes and research necessary to develop an effective technological public relations agenda
- Financial options available
- A structural model for an evaluation and assessment plan
Planning for Technology is a valuable resource that will enable administrators and teachers to consider how best to make the transition from using out-dated models of technology to facing today?s academic realities head-on.

Good Book November 5, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
A good all-in-one reference manual (of sorts) for people interested in integrating technology into their curriculum, district, or even just their lessons. The only drawback is that, like many things tech related, portions of this book will soon be out of date. An online companion reference that could be continuously updated would have been good.
