Using Technology to Increase Student Learning


March 2000 | 176 pages | Corwin

All across the country, teachers, superintendents, directors of curriculum, and especially principals are being pressured to develop quality technology programs. Business leaders consider technological expertise to be mandatory for success in the workplace; parents feel technology training is as basic as reading, writing, and arithmetic. And here is the first step toward a solution: a practical, jargon-free pathway for principals to create the best possible environment for implementing and teaching technology, including a detailed exploration of the principal's role in leadership, curriculum planning, and implementation. A must for education in the 21st century! Includes a list of related Web sites and a glossary of technical terms.
