> Targeted schools in District 31 & 22 were cited for failure to meet AYP in ELA. Inthe majority of schools failure to meet AYP was the result of poor performanceamong ELL and SWD student populations.

> Students 4 year graduation rate is below citywide average, illustrating the needfor credit recovery.

Professional Need

> A significant % of teachers in targeted schools are teaching out of certification> The turn-over rate for targeted schools is higher than that of non-targeted

schools.

Strategies and Activities Students will demonstrate increased achievement in English Language Arts, Math and Science.

At least 80% of students will create high quality student centered e-portfolios that meet standards

as assessed by rubrics developed and administered by participating teachers.

Students will demonstrate increased technology literacy skills as assessed by student surveys, as

well as a student technology literacy assessment of 8 th grade students

By the end of year one 10% of teachers will receive a minimum of 50 hours training to enhance

their instructional technology proficiency as part of a blended model of professional development

that includes face-to-face workshops, webinars, on-line courses towards IT certification, and on-site

and in-class support including coaching and mentoring. By the end of year two 25% of teachers in

participating schools will receive the same as above. By the end of year three 50% of teachers inparticipating schools will receive the same as above.

By the end of years 2 and 3 it is expected that each project school will develop approximately 10

online courses.

By the end of year one, it is expected that each school will create at least 5 high quality, technology

rich PBL units in the core subject areas of ELA, Math or Science.

Teachers will create professional e-portfolios to host their PBL units

School administrators will attend approximately 36 hours of customized training including face-to-

face workshops, webinars, visits to model school sites, and on-site consultations. The training will

enable school administrators to observe and model best practices of technology infusion into

instruction and share PBL units
