The document outlines best practices for using media and technology in schools based on a program called IMPACT. It finds that IMPACT schools saw significant growth in student test scores and computer use. IMPACT schools also had larger media collections, higher circulation, and more classes visiting their media centers compared to non-IMPACT schools. The document recommends that schools prioritize collaboration between teachers and media/technology staff, provide flexible access to resources, and regularly schedule professional development opportunities to integrate technology into teaching.Ncva unified school district

The document summarizes the Race to the Top initiative and a school district's transformation plan to address low performance. The district struggles to meet state accreditation and AYP benchmarks and needs professional development and community involvement. A transformation team will act as coaches, engage parents, communicate urgency, establish culture, monitor best practices, and ensure accountability. The model will provide differentiated professional development to existing staff. Research supports coaching but restructuring may challenge families and additional funds are needed. Pros include stakeholder involvement, sustainability, data use, capacity building, and collaboration.SB 6696

Here are a few ways a superintendent can support principals nudging teachers into unfamiliar practices:
- Provide principals with resources for professional learning focused on the new practices. This helps principals coach teachers.
- Establish clear expectations that the new practices will be implemented with fidelity and support from the district. This gives principals credibility with teachers.
- Allow flexibility in implementation timelines so principals can pace changes appropriately for their staff. Mandates may cause resistance.
- Recognize publicly principals who are making progress with the new practices to encourage risk-taking.
- Limit other initiatives temporarily so the new practices get full focus and don't feel like the latest fad.

Distance education is a formalized teaching and learning system designed to be carried out remotely using electronic communication. It has advantages like being less expensive, not constrained by geography, and offering flexible self-paced learning. However, it also lacks social interaction, may not be suitable for all learners, requires adapting to new technologies, and not all required courses may be offered online. Evaluation in distance education aims to assess the worth and merits of the program and can take traditional empirical approaches or more qualitative naturalistic techniques. It focuses on measuring different aspects like student outcomes, achievement of program goals, and organizational impacts.Lean education presentation
