Preparing Teachers for School-Based Technology Leadership.
Nunn, Jacqueline A.; McPherson, Sarah; Rust, William D., IV
This paper describes a partnership developed between the Baltimore County Public Schools and Johns Hopkins University. The purpose of the partnership was to train teachers to become school-based leaders in technology through a 36-credit graduate program in Technology for Educators. The paper is divided into the following sections: (1) the partner institutions; (2) the development of a collaborative cohort; (3) competencies; (4) key elements of the partnership, including selection of candidates, role of principals and school improvement teams, and applied projects; (4) implementation strategies that worked; and (5) challenges to anticipate. A table lists core competencies for school-based technology leadership in three areas: technology planning, instructional leadership, and change and program evaluation. (AEF)
