According to International Society for Technology in Education in the The Indelible LinkThe research findings presented in this brief demonstrate that TECHNOLOGY is being effectively integrated into teaching and learning and is having a positive impact on increasing student achievement through test scores and the acquisition of 21st century skills. This research presents convincing evidence that technology integration in teaching and learning is having a strong positive effect on student achievement across all segments of K12 students, is helping to advance equity and access in historically high-need schools and communities, and is fortifying todays generation with a foundation of technology-based skills that fit within the larger picture of global competitiveness.

Step 1: Elect School LeadersWith these leaders, we will build trust. leaders of great organizations hold themselves accountable when problems arise and yet are quick to share credit with others when they experience success. Zimmerman

Step 2: Create a Shared Vision at Orange High SchoolWe will promote every aspect into positive reinforcement about technology and the benefits of effectively using technology in the classroom

Step 3: Peer SupportWe will promote professional development and peer support in anyway we can.

Short Term GoalsEvery student will have a google classroom account within the first month of schoolEvery teacher must attend two Professional Development meetings with one of our school leaders. (Max class size for Professional Development 5). This will be done in the first two months of school. Identify other teachers who are having success integrating technology in the classroom to grow our shared vision. Peer support to encourage the use of technology

After the first two monthsWe will have a staff meeting with the school leaders to discuss benefits, drawbacks, etc.

Long Term Goals
