Evaluation of the 1984-85 ECIA, Chapter II Computer Education Project.
Morris, Donald R.
Education Consolidation Improvement Act (ECIA) Chapter 2 funds have been used in the Dade County, Florida, computer education program since 1982, primarily for the acquisition and support of computer stations and related hardware for the schools. Objectives for the 1984-85 school year were: continued development of a computer information system, support services for school level implementation, and participation in state and national computer education activities. The following goals were described in the program design as means to achieving these objectives: (1) employ a media specialist; (2) produce eight newsletters; (3) develop mechanics to activate an electronic bulletin board; (4) purchase software, journals, books, and equipment for the computer laboratory; (5) duplicate software and disseminate it to the schools; (6) employ a computer education specialist; (7) organize a computer education conference; (8) provide workshops on computer education; (9) attend the Florida Instructional Computing Conference; and (10) maintain membership in various national consortia. This evaluation concludes that these activities were performed as specified in the proposal, and it is recommended that the ECIA Chapter 2 Computer Education Project be favorably considered for continuation.
