Prepared by Marie K. Sayles Library Database Workshop Introduction Technology infusion into solid project-based curriculum requires a combination of time, communication and patience. Time is needed for teachers to become familiar with the computer equipment. Time is needed for staff development and for teacher's personal exploration of the technology.
Communication is needed before, during, and after the training.
And patience is needed to let the information settle into individual teacher's style, schedule and school structure. N.Y. I was hired through a Department of Commerce Technology Grant as a Project Trainer in District Four and Five. My focus was to be staff development, technology-curriculum integration and technical support for teachers. The Library Database project became my first assignment. The program we are using is FileMaker Pro.
