Become an Advocate for Ed Tech: As
ISTE ramps up for the March 2005 Advocacy Day, which it co-sponsors with the
Consortium for School Networking (CoSN), read how you can ensure that your
representatives in government and your building and district administrators
know enough about educational technology to respect it and fund it. L&L
senior editor Jennifer Roland explains what Advocacy Day is, how you
can advocate for Ed Tech at that event and year-round, and what ISTE is doing
on your behalf.
Educational Technology in Ethiopia: Judit Szente reports on the effects of a U.S. Agency for International Development Project (USAID) that brought technology-based learning to 4,000 K-8 students in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Teachers became empowered by their use of technology, and students worked with businesses to make money for upgrades to equipment in the future.
Leave No Data Behind: Ed Tech consultant Edwin Wargo reminds us of an important data point to use in data-driven decision making: data about our technology. Most school and district administrators collect and use data on academics, absences, budgets, and so on. But many of these same data-savvy people are unsure what technology data to gather and what to do with it once they've gathered it. Wargo presents a model of what to gather, how to gather it, and how to use it to plan for the future.
