Model Schools - Coser 557
The Model Schools program assists districts in integrating technology
into the curriculum. The Model Schools base service provides multiple
days of training (on site or in the Model Schools computer lab), workshops
for participating districts, and the use of the Model Schools computer
lab for district run workshops.
- Member districts may participate in both regional and customized
on-site workshops.
- Full participation involves designating a point of contact in the
district to help coordinate the services to ensure that districts are
represented and to identify participants for special initiatives and
projects.
- Membership includes shared regional technology training, facilitated
planning,
collaborative work groups, statewide Peer Review, and assistance with
a technology
educational plan to promote effective integration of resources across
all content
areas.
- Districts may purchase additional training days and/or a percentage
of a
shared integration specialist for in-district use.
- Model Schools also supports on-line professional development, as well
as on-line high school course content.
Admission: The program
provides a process for a comprehensive and systemic approach to technology
acquisition in partnership with the Learning Technology Service. Districts
purchasing Orange-Ulster's Instructional Technology Services (Coser 571)
are required to participate in at least the base service for Model Schools
(Coser 557).
