The
goal of the Technology in Education Initiative is to provide training,
technical assistance, and materials dissemination to general and
special education teachers and administrators, student support services
personnel, paraprofessionals, and family members regarding educational
technologies (learning tools) that may facilitate the teaching and
learning process and lead to greater student achievement. Programs
range from awareness-level introductions of a wide array of learning
tools ("low-tech" to mid-tech" to "high-tech")
and strategies that are applicable in any learning context to ongoing,
in-depth professional development activities designed to build local
capacity. All Technology in Education Initiative programs offer
opportunities for job-embedded application. The initiative also
provides grant opportunities for an "expert-in-residence" program in which districts may engage the services of an expert
presenter for a day.
