Why aren’t our students performing better on this assessment?

What can we do?

If we expect different results in the future, we have to change what we are

doing today.

Research supports the idea that: Technology is the Key We now have the technology to implement change.

Our goals:

• To increase the number of 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students who meet or exceed the CRCT performance standards in science by a minimum of 3% by 2013.

• To increase the number of 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students who meet or exceed the CRCT performance standards in social studies by a minimum of 3% by 2013.

• To increase the number of 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students achieving mastery/competency on the OAS Technology Literacy Test by 3% by 2013.

How will we know if the technology integration plan is working?

Student interviews

Student portfolios

Anecdotal reports

Lesson plan checks by administrators

Teacher discussion

Administrative observations

Rubric use for teachers and for students

Could this be us in the future?
