I. Abstract of Program /Activity
Abstract, not to exceed 300 words, indicating the program/activities to be undertaken with grant funds and
a timeline for such program/activities. Please refer to "Guidelines for Required Sections" in the CEDC
Grant Application Overview for further details on completing this section.
Carrollton- Farmers Branch I. S. D. currently pays for an Instructional Technology
Support person to be at Riverchase Elementary one day a week. This person spends her
time trouble - shooting existing hardware /software problems and is not able to be proactive
in teacher staff development or model the incorporation of technology into regular
classroom teaching. This has not proven sufficient to meet the varying levels of staff and
student competencies. Riverchase needs additional specialist support in order to take
advantage of the resources on the campus. Bond funds may not be used for personnel
and the annual, discretionary, school budget is not sufficient to hire a technology support
specialist. The funding approved by the CEDC would be used to hire a half -time,
instructional technology support person for one school year (August 2003 through May
2004). The cost would be $30,000.
The Instructional Technology Specialist would support the acquisition of Texas
Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) for all students in kindergarten through fifth
grade through the use of technology. The specific responsibilities would be:
1. Monitor and assist classroom teachers in their use of technology to
introduce /reinforce curriculum.
2. Model lessons for teachers in classrooms using technology.
3. Monitor central computer lab, overseeing flexible sign -up to insure maximum
use of lab by all grade levels.
4. Provide staff development for teachers.
2
5. Work cooperatively with teachers and principal to promote the use of
technology.
6. Provide recommendations for technology resources for both students and
teachers.
This project addresses the area of literacy because it supports instruction of TEKS
in the regular classroom and computer lab. It also addresses career technology because
students are taught skills in keyboarding, navigating the internet to aid in problem
solving, using technology to organize information and create presentations, and basic
understanding of troubleshooting technology problems.
3
II. Description of Proposal & Nature of Request
Description of the purpose of and the educational need and importance for the proposed program/activities,
including the relevance to one or more of the three approved funding areas: literacy, foreign language,
and/or career technology for a skilled workforce.
Riverchase will house about 500 students in grades kindergarten
through fifth grade during the 2003 -04 school year. There are 40 full time staff members
and 9 part time staff members.
An inventory of technology hardware is as follows:
43 teacher /office workstations
145 student workstations, most all with earphones
60 printers
5 scanners
2 digital cameras
1 video camera
2 digital projectors
40 presentation televisions
37 v.c.r.'s
1 set Student Remote Response System consisting of teacher software and 20
remote units
Of the student workstations, 26 are located in a central, main lab, which is available to all
classes on a flexible schedule. The remaining workstations are located in classrooms, in
special education rooms, and in `activity areas' located in first through fifth grade
hallways. All workstations (student and teacher) are on the wide area networks and all
have Internet access.
4
Teachers and students have access to all the `basic' Windows programs, including
Word, PowerPoint, Access, and Excel. To further support the curriculum, the following
software programs have been purchased through district or local school funds:
PAWS (touch typing, grade 2 up)
Kidspiration and Inspiration (graphic organizers, writing, all grades)
Leap Frog (math, lower grades)
Riverdeep (math, upper grades)
VITA (TEKS math and language arts, 3 grade)
Lightspan (reading, grades 2 -4)
I Spy (logic, problem solving, grades preK — 2)
ELLIS (ESL, grades 1 -5)
Millie's Math House (math, grades K — 1)
Dr. Seuss series (reading, grades 1 — 2)
LearningPac (reference bundle for language arts and social studies, grades K — 5)
Kid Pix (graphics, all grades)
Carrollton- Farmers Branch Independent School District has identified as one of
its five goals:
CFBISD will integrate technology into the learning environment to improve
student achievement and productivity and prepare all staff and students for the
21 century.
In conjunction with the district goal, the objective of this program is:
5
To increase use of technology in classrooms to improve student success in
alphabetic, numeric, and tool literacy.
The proposed funding would be used to continue a project begun during the 2002-
03 school year with funding through the Coppell Education Development Corporation.
Last year's funds hired an Instructional Technology Specialist who assisted students and
staff. As a result of her efforts, computer lab usage was increased by 60% overall. Under
her direction, all students in first grade through fifth grade learned and practiced
keyboarding skills. First graders spent 30 minutes a day for two weeks learning home
row keys. All other grades spent 30 minutes a day for 6 — 8 weeks working on the PAWS
keyboarding program. Other examples of projects accomplished as a result of additional
technology support included:
✓ 2nd grade project in HyperStudio
✓ 4th grade and Newcomers worked on word processing and slide show
✓ Newcomers used Kidspiration to organize information on animals
✓ Kindergarten reinforced beginning sounds by doing alphabet book in
KidPix and turned it into a slide show presentation
✓ Teachers had staff development session on Kidspiration or Inspiration
✓ All appropriate district benchmark tests taken on line
A survey of teachers indicates they have improved their skills and confidence and
have increased the use of technology in classroom instruction by 25 %.
While these results are gratifying, there still exists a continuing need for
instructional technology support. New staff members and new students will need to be
brought up to standard. And, without a skilled person available to troubleshoot as
6
problems and questions arise, opportunities will be lost, frustrations with technology will
mount, and ground will be lost.
In addition, Riverchase has been selected to receive a district grant for additional
hardware and training next year. Specifics expectations will be given in August 2003,
but the intent is to improve students' reading levels using balanced literacy at lower
levels and reading across the curriculum in upper grades. The presence of an
instructional technology specialist will greatly improve the benefits of this opportunity.
This grant connects to both career technology and literacy, whether you use the
traditional definition of literacy (reading and mathematics) or an expanded view. The
expanded definition of literacy was the focus of the October 1998 issue of "Educational
Leadership ". One author suggested the 38 types of literacy could be considered as three
broad categories: (1) traditional text - based, or alphabetic, literacy, (2) representational
literacy, and (3) tool literacy. (Tyner, 1998) Tool literacy is defined as the knowledge of
how to use hardware, software, and Internet connections to gather, read, interpret,
evaluate, critique, and use information. (Rafferty, 1998) But the benefits of technology
are not limited to the development of tool literacy. Technology can also be used to
support the ongoing development of the more traditional, critical reading and numerical
literacy skills. (Rafferty, 1998)
The world is rapidly changing. Information is increasing exponentially. Learners
of the present and future must discern the fastest, most credible sources and become
skilled at organizing and evaluating collected data. The efficient use of technology will
meet this need. "Future generations will value the ability to use information technology
as highly as we value the abilities to read and write today." (Walker, 1998) In addition,
7
competence in the use of technology will create a skilled workforce. "Statistical,
computer, interpretive, and technical communication skills are the staples of modern
business." (Steen, 1998)
In February 1999, integrating technology into the curriculum was the focus of
"Educational Leadership ". An article in the journal recounted the transformation of an
elementary school when technology was incorporated into everyday learning. The
authors cited significantly improved test scores (implying a higher level of literacy).
Specifically, students used technology to produce consistently higher quality writing.
Technology- assisted reading diagnosis and instruction led to appreciably higher reading
scores for all students, but especially for those with low reading ability. (Conyers, 1999)
Our school district has also acknowledged the importance of technology by
specifying one of its goals as the integration of technology (see page 5). The state of
Texas has acknowledged the importance of technology by specifying state curriculum
objectives, which must be met at each grade level. It is essential to note that our district
has integrated these objectives into other subject areas, underscoring the need for
technology to support learning throughout the curriculum, thereby supporting literacy.
The presence of technology in a building does not guarantee its appropriate
implementation, however. Students need to be instructed in the use of these tools. But
who will instruct the teachers? A pair of researchers determined that between one -third
and two - thirds of all teachers do not take full advantage of the computers available to
them for instruction because they do not feel confident of their own abilities. (Rosen,
1995) Training for staff as well as students is a critical aspect of this grant. If teachers'
8
levels of ability and confidence are raised, then the benefits for students will last long
after the next school year.
The instructional technologist works on a flexible schedule. Her responsibilities
include scheduling classes (all classes K -5) into the computer lab on an as needed basis,
coordinating the district required trainings such as keyboarding for grades 2 -5, and
assisting classroom teachers in instructional design and delivery. This assistance can
occur in the computer lab or in the classroom where additional computer stations and
other technology is used. She also oversees the implementation of district benchmark
testing which occurs every two months. Maintaining an accurate inventory of technology
software and hardware is also her responsibility as well as seeing that current equipment
is used as efficiently as possible. As school budgets become smaller each year, it is even
more critical that we learn how to creatively reconfigure and maintain our current
resources for future use.
If the technology specialist is not present, the responsibilities listed above must
still be accomplished. The tasks would fall upon the classroom teacher, librarian, and/or
school office staff. All of these people currently wear multiple hats. Time does not exist
to fulfill the technologist's role in addition to other roles. The result would be a
significant decline in the current standards and regression in use of technology by
students and teachers.
Project Needs
This grant request is solely for a half time personnel unit for the duration of the
2003 -04 school year. The person would be on campus for two and a half days per week.

Her responsibilities have been previously outlined. This project does not depend upon
any other funding sources.

III. Detailed Budget
Outline proposed expenditures for resources and personnel requested in the proposal. Actual costs are not
to exceed this estimate. Budgets should account for current/future price fluctuations as well as
salary/benefits increases.
The total cost of this proposal is for the salary of a half time, instructional
technology specialist for the 2003 -04 school year. This total will not exceed $30,000.
This is a fixed sum and there is no additional funding source.
11
/V. Project Measurements and Evaluation
This section should include a detailed description of expected outcomes, numbers of students served and
measures to be applied to determine overall project effectiveness.
All students in grades K -5 will be served. The school district predicts Riverchase
Elementary to have 500 students during the 2003 -04 school year. The per pupil cost for
$30,000 would therefore be $60.
The project will be evaluated based on:
• Staff surveys (both quantitative and qualitative data)
• Use of computer lab (quantitative)
• Maintenance of current equipment (quantitative)
• Student TAKS scores (quantitative)
• Examples of student work produced with the assistance of technology
The project will be deemed successful if:
• Staff surveys show-
• increased level of teacher confidence in the use of technology
• increased level of teacher knowledge in software
• increased use of technology to support classroom instruction
• increased number of hours students are engaged in use of
technology
• Use of computer lab by classes continues to increase
• Current hardware and software inventory is maintained
12
• Student TAKS scores continue to increase, esp. for subpopulations and the
percentage of students reaching commended status
• Teachers' lesson plans include the regular use of technology.
