Every school in the Addison Central Supervisory Union is including Information Technology status reports within their yearly school reports as well as in their yearly action plans Each student is expected to use technology. We believe that technology is to be used as a tool for teaching and learning. Computers extend, rather than replace learning activities demonstrated and envisioned by teachers. Computers can expand the power of learners to create, examine, compare, analyze, and communicate. Computers and related information technologies can help to discern how information is collected, stored, and utilized to solve problems and create new understandings.
Technology is used as a tool for teaching and learning.
Teachers are developing units with embedded technology. Some teachers have presented their projects at VermontFest. Most teachers are evaluated by their administrators in their effectiveness at technology integration. Technology alone cannot provide the means of truly restructuring the way in which we teach and learn. Given our collective desire to bring about systemic innovation, technology can act as the catalyst to facilitate that change Technology has proven to be a catalyst for change in many schools and classrooms.
