(REMINDER: Applications may NOT include more than one school fiscal year.) In the fall of 1998 the voters of the Carrollton- Farmers Branch Independent School District approved a $198 million bond package. This package included the construction costs of Riverchase Elementary (completed in August 2000) as well as the purchase of technology hardware and software for the building to support staff in the delivery of instruction and to support students in the acquisition of essential knowledge and skills. CFBISD currently pays for an Instructional Technology Support person to be at Riverchase 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 modeling 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 extensive resources that already exist 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 2002 through May 2003). The Instructional Support Technologist would support the acquisition of Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for students in grades prekindergarten through fifth grade through the use of technology. The specific responsibilities would be: 3/26/02 6:28 PM 2 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. 5. Work cooperatively with teachers and principal to promote the use of technology. 6. Provide recommendations for technology resources for both students and teachers. 3/26/02 6:28 PM 3 Program/Project Purpose/Need/Importance 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 approved funding areas promoting literacy, foreign language, and/or career technology for a skilled workforce. The definition of `literacy' is continually being reevaluated. The October 1998 issue of "Educational Leadership" was devoted entirely to debating this topic. 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.' 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. 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. 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. " In addition, competence in the use of technology will create a skilled workforce. "Statistical, computer, interpretive, and technical communication skills are the staples of modern business. " 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. 3/26/02 6:28 PM 4 Technology- assisted reading diagnosis and instruction led to appreciably higher reading scores for all students, but especially for those with low reading ability. Our school district has also acknowledged the importance of technology by specifying one of its goals as follows: CFBISD will integrate technology into the learning environment to improve student achievement and productivity and prepare all staff and students for the 21S century. 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. (See samples in Appendix A) 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. Training for staff as well as students is a critical aspect of this grant. If teachers' levels of ability and confidence are raised, then the benefits will last long after May 2003. 1. Tyner, K.

Riverchase currently houses about 480 students in grades prekindergarten through fifth grade. There are 40 full time staff members and 12 part time staff members. An inventory of technology hardware is as follows: 39 teacher /office workstations 143 student workstations, most all with earphones 60 printers 5 scanners 1 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. 3/26/02 6:28 PM 7 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:. 3/26/02 6:28 PM 8 To increase use of technology in classrooms to improve student success in alphabetic, numeric, and tool literacy. The strategies used to achieve this goal are listed on the following page. 3/26/02 6:28 PM 9 Strategy Person Responsible Timeline Formative Evaluation Summative Evaluation Advertise and interview for ITS H.
