• Integration of technology into curriculum and lesson planning.• The utilization of technology tools that are available for teachers on campus.• Utilizing textbook adoption tools to enhance lessons in core content areas.

Evaluation

To measure the success of my professional development plan, the following will occur:

• Interviews and surveys will determine student and staff knowledge and success with targeted objectives.

• Walk-throughs will be used to assess application of learned skills.

• Observation and monitoring of teachers’ lesson plans for use of technology will occur monthly.

• The STaR chart will be an indicator of teachers’ use of technology.

• CIIC will meet twice a year to review plan and data to ensure that the plan is being implemented on the campus.
