Goals The plan
should describe the district’s specific goals, aligned with
challenging state standards, for using advanced technology to improve
student academic achievement. Specific
District Goals Goals
should be clear and concise, should
support the district's vision for technology, and align with goals
in the district's Professional Development Master Plan and Local
Educational Improvement Plan. Plans
which merely provide an itemized "shopping list" of desired services
and technologies are strongly discouraged as they fail to address
the essence of the planning process. Keep
in mind that you will need to create action plans related to implementing
the goals, along with budget details and means of gathering data
for assessment and evaluation. These elements are addressed in the
Action Plan, Budget, and Evaluation sections of this planning guide. The standards
currently used in New Hampshire to approve schools are undergoing
revisions, with significant updates planned for all sections of
the standards document. The following sections are of particular
note for technology planners: New Hampshire
has relied on its content
area curriculum frameworks in the development of state assessment
items. With the passing of the No Child Left Behind Act, New Hampshire
has been involved in developing Grade Level Expectations which will
coincide with the new grade level assessments. ESSENTIAL
