Learning Objectives
If principals maximize their use of instructional technology, they will increase their overall student achievement, as measured by the California Standardized Testing and Reporting System (STAR) program, and decrease the time required to effectively implement their instructional strategy.
Learning Objectives
Principals need to have a strong working knowledge of the use of technology and its relationship to school management, accountability, and the delivery and assessment of instruction to students and staff. In addition, the principal needs to understand how to connect to, and navigate through, the school to the vast amount of available instructional resources for classroom and school use.

Start thinking of yourself as a learning consultant. Your job is to help students learn and develop skills… they should be learning within experiences that you have crafted for them, where they are finding their own information raw materials, processing the materials into their own knowledge and building an information product from their knowledge.
