1 Measure S Technology Subcommittee Monday, February 25, 2013 (Revised March 6, 2013)

2 Proposed Agenda 10 Preparation Meeting Notes from February 14, 2013 Review Agenda Member Updates 15 Final Recommendations to the Steering Committee 60 Implementation of Classroom Technology Review of Implementation Parameters Discussion of Implementation Guidelines Introduction of an Implementation Strategy Breakout Session: Discussion of Strategy Reports from Breakout Sessions 25 Next Steps Implementation: Major Points of Agreement? Major Disagreements? What Other Information Do We Need? All Kathleen All Kathleen All Kathleen Patrick & Kathleen All All All 10 March 14 Agenda Kathleen & Patrick

3 A Summary of the Priority Criteria Core Curriculum Student outcomes Smarter Balanced Assessments (spring 2015) Equity TCO: Tech support, life cycle, replacement, end user support Scalable and sustainable Infrastructure can support Professional development to implement

4 Smarter Balanced Technical Requirements Operating System Windows Mac OS X Linux Minimum Requirements Current Computers Windows XP (service pack 3), Pentium 233 MHz processor, 128 MB RAM, 52 MB hard drive free space (supported only through spring 2015) Mac OS X Macintosh computer with Intel x86 or PowerPC G3 (300 MHz) processor, 256 MB RAM, 200 MB hard drive free space (supported only through spring 2015) Linux (Ubuntu 9 10, Fedora 6), Pentium II or AMD K6 III 233 MHz processor, 64 MB RAM, 52 MB hard drive free space Recommended New Purchases Windows 7+1 GHz processor, 1 GB RAM, 80 GB hard drive Mac OS X GHz processor1 GB RAM80 GB hard drive Linux (Ubuntu 11.10, Fedora 16)1 GHz processor, 1 GB RAM80 GB hard drive ios ipads 2 and 3 running ios6 ipads running ios6 Android Android tablets running Android 4.0+ Chrome OS Chromebooks running Chrome OS (v19)+ Android tablets running Android 4.0+ Chromebooks running Chrome OS (v19)+ Plus networked printer, headsets and keyboards; mouse may be required for tablets

5 Summary of Best Practices Technology integral to the curriculum Students use to build 21 st Century skills & master standards On going professional development Integration of technology into the curriculum Paradigm shift Instructional practices Differentiation of instruction based on student need Classroom management of tech rich environment

6 Implementation Drivers Tie technology deployment to PD with limited resources Build capacity and curriculum resources to support scalability and sustainability Phase in: Tech & end user support Assess effectiveness of model, technology Meet SBA technical requirements by spring 2015 Therefore, all gr students have access by 2014

7 Draft Implementation Strategy Discussion Points Presenting one model for initial discussion Discussion will focus on: Phase in vs. full implementation in year 1 PD model Teacher cohorts 1:1 student to computing device ratio Data available to easily modify implementation strategy NOT discussing best technology. Projected costs help set parameters.

8 Implementation Process For Discussion May July Curriculum Integration Specialist Recruit Lead Trainer Co Trainer Support Role Teacher Cohort 1 Curriculum Integration Teachers Recruit Tech deployment Summer Institute & yr. long PD Co Trainers Trainers Teacher Cohort 2 Recruit Tech deployment Summer Institute & yr. long PD Teacher Cohort 3 Recruit Tech deployment Summer Institute & yr. long PD

9 Professional Development Model Focus: Process of integrating technology into the Core Curriculum Developing technology integrated Core Curriculum units/resources Building site PD capacity Making technology integral to ongoing site and district PD

10 Cohort 1 Implementation Strategy Cohorts Curriculum Integration Teachers (CITs) K 12, school teams Site curriculum integration resource staff 26 Cohort 2 Gr. 3 5 teachers Gr EL, ELD, Math, SPED teachers 63 Cohort 3 Gr. K 2 teachers Gr all other classroom teachers 55+

11 Teacher Survey Finding: What technology resources would you need to effectively implement (your future) projects? Class sets of laptops/netbooks/tablets in carts 71% More planning time 66% More classroom computers 54% Assistance in designing the project(s) 49% Improved proficiency with the technology 46% Smartboard 43% More timely technical support 37% Increased access to a computer lab 35% Document camera 35% Video camera 27% Clicker system 11%

12 Cost Projections for Baseline Classroom Technology 1:1 Student to Computer Ratio The costs below are estimates only. Actual costs depend on a wide range of factors: model selected, total units in order, costs of warranties, installation, training availability, etc. Per classroom/lab (30 students) # Units Per Unit ipad Chrome Netbook Desktops (Cost per computing device) $450 $250 $350 $500 Robust bandwidth: wired and campus-wide wireless Cloud file storage Teacher laptop 1 $1,000 $1,000 $1,000 $1,000 $500 Sufficient, age appropriate & portable student computing devices 30 $13,500 $7,500 $10,500 $15,000 Keyboards 30 $30 $50 $1,500 $900 Headsets 30 $30 $900 $900 $900 $900 Projection/audio device/document camera for teacher & student use 1 $7,000 $7,000 $7,000 $7,000 $7,000 Productivity software 30 $45 $0 $0 $1,350 $1,350 Online reference materials & academic databases Appropriate & ergonomic furniture Security & storage for mobile devices (cart) 1 $1,250 $1,250 $1,250 $1,250 *** Baseline Total - one classroom $25,150 $18,550 $22,000 $24,750 Deployment - Cohort 1 (May - Aug. 2013) 26 $653,900 $482,300 $572,000 $643,500 Deployment - Cohort 2 ( ) 63 $1,584,450 $1,168,650 $1,386,000 $1,559,250 Deployment - Cohort 3 ( ) 55 $1,383,250 $1,020,250 $1,210,000 $1,361,250 Baseline in all Classrooms ( ) 144 $3,621,600 $2,671,200 $3,168,000 $3,564,000 Additional Technical Suport ( ) 2 $50,000 $300,000 $300,000 $300,000 $300,000 Projected Total ( ) $3,921,600 $2,971,200 $3,468,000 $3,864,000 Total Measure S Funding $4,000,000 *** Computer desks range from $200 for 2 computers to $1,000 + and up for cluster desk for 6)

13 Discussion Questions What are the strengths/weaknesses of: A 3 stage phase in: installation, technical support, implementation, assessment? The Train the Trainer PD model? The Proposed Teacher Cohorts? Cohort 1 K 12 CIT team to build PD capacity Cohort 2 Tie in with Core Curriculum implementation and SBA focus on math and EL Cohort 3 All Teachers served by The 1:1 ratio?

14 Wrap up Implementation: Major Points of Agreement? Major Points of Disagreement? What Other Information Do We Need?
