Just as a lesson plan helps teachers set and guide students toward classroom objectives, a strategic education technology plan helps school leaders achieve their technology and integration goals. Schools that are serious about improving their application of technology in the classroom have plans that not only clarify their visions for educational technology but identify the best steps for achieving them.

A Strategic EdTech Plan: 

How do you start? 

  1. Audit your school’s technology assets and performance. Take stock of your devices, infrastructure, policies, personnel skills, and documented procedures. Evaluate your current professional learning objectives around technology integration. 
  2. List and prioritize your goals. Write down everything your technology must achieve to support the growth of your students. Make sure you consult stakeholders who will be using the technology. Identify which IT results are “must haves” for your school and what needs to happen to achieve them.
  3. Review your budget. Enlist the support of a K-12 focused professional services company to help you determine the best way to use your technology dollars.
