Phase 2 – Research
This is where we use various tools like surveys and research studies to identify◦What is currently being employed by staff◦What could benefit our district (software,
hardware, training) ◦What is needed to attain that benefit—
What do we need to purchase and what training is needed

Phase 4 – Formalizing the Planning
This is the step in the process where we actually create a technology planning document.
The document will be presented to the school board and district personnel to make changes and / or additions before finalization.

Phase 5 – Continually Implement, Evaluate, and Revise
Continual evaluation and revision is needed◦Ensure that the plan is meeting the
districts needs◦Ensure that the plan is aligned to the
vision◦Adjust the plan if needed and re-
implement.

Staff DevelopmentSuggestions◦Mandatory Training (in-service or in the
summer) to teach the teachers and administrators how to use the software / hardware
◦Follow-up, optional training so that staff can achieve a comfort level of at least 7 on a scale from 1 to 10
◦Mandatory Training (in-service or ion the summer) to teach the staff instructional methods that allow for the integration of technology
