The Five Goals for 1:1 Computing (Updated)

For the current 1:1 Laptop pilots, the following five, high-level goals will be the basis of setting objectives and success metrics:

1. To increase student achievement and improve students’ 21st Century Skills.

2. To increase technology use and literacy with students, teachers, administrators and communities.

3. To increase communication and involvement between and among teachers, students, families and the community.

4. To improve the teaching and learning process through the innovative uses of technology and instructional design.

5. To contribute to the research base on the use of wireless mobile computing devices on student achievement.

I thought the goals were already published...

The goals we're (NWRESD) using were posted on this blog post:

and included in this document:

1. To increase student achievement and improve students’ 21st Century Skills.

2. To increase technology use and literacy with students, teachers, administrators and communities.

3. To increase communication and involvement between and among teachers, students, families and the community.

4. To improve the teaching and learning process through the innovative uses of technology and instructional design.

5. To contribute to the research base on the use of wireless mobile computing devices on student achievement.

Much the same but still with significant differences. I'm reluctant to tell the FGSD staff that we have a different set of goals. They just turned in and will publish today an extensive planning matrix based on the 5 goals identified in the Oregon 1:1 published documents referenced above.
