The 2013 District Integrated/Improvement Plan is a continuous plan that may be edited throughout the year. Text may be cut and pasted into the e-Plan templates. The Technology component must be completed and submitted to ISBE through the e-Plans template by February 28, 2014. Please contact ISBE for further questions.

ú  Complete and update these pages in response to 2013 assessment data.

ú  Review data measuring the success of strategies and activities from prior plan(s).

ISBE will provide feedback on your plan after submission via the Illinois Interactive Report Card. Please contact ISBE for specific submission dates. Plans that have not complied with requirements will be returned for changes and resubmission.

District Information Report Card Data
Summary -What do your District Report Card data tell you about student performance in your district? If appropriate, the district will consider grade-level and subgroup performance.
Analysis –What areas of weakness, if any, are indicated by these data? What factors are likely to have contributed to these results? Consider both external and internal factors to the district that can be influenced or improved by the district.

Conclusions –What do these factors imply for next steps in technology planning?

District Information Local Assessment Data

This section prompts a description and analysis of assessment data that the district considers relevant to building and implementing effective strategies for improved teaching and learning. Data included in this section must be used in the development of strategies and activities in the Action Plan. Data that do not link directly to strategies and activities should not be included. Data used to develop the action plan must be available to ISBE and the local community upon request.

For Technology Plan preparation, please complete your summary & analysis of student assessments, district technology professional development, curriculum integration, and parent and/or community involvement by placing this information in the "Local Assessments" section. For more information, see the Technology Plan Writing Guide.

Tech Plan: Action Plan

In this section the district will define theGoalof the plan. TheGoalof the District Technology Plan is the key initiative that the district is committed to achieving and that incorporate specific measureable outcomes by which the district’s plan is to be evaluated. For each goal the district will specifyStrategies andActivitiesthat support the attainment of the goal. The goal is to be identified and supported for three years of the plan (FY 2015, FY 2016, and FY 2017). TheStrategiesandActivitieswill be in each of these applicable areas:

·  Instruction

·  Professional Development

·  Technology Deployment

After defining strategies and activities, districts will describe:

·  Monitoring Process

Goals

·  Briefly state the title of the goal

·  Describe current student achievement level

·  Identify theS.M.A.R.T.(Specific,Measurable,Attainable,Realistic, andTimely)goal(s)to be attained each year of the plan

Strategies and Activities

·  Include start date and end date

·  Align with State and national standards which support advanced technology used to improve student achievement

·  Include how students in high-poverty/high-needs schools are being helped, if applicable

·  Align with State and/or national standards for using advanced technology to improve student academic achievement utilizing telecommunications, instructional technology and information technology services

Monitoring Process

·  Describe how district personnel will monitor the effectiveness of strategies and activities toward the achievement of the goal. Description should address:

o  integrating technology into instruction

o  increasing the ability of teachers to teach

o  enabling students to reach challenging state academic standards

o  name and role of person overseeing the goal, strategies and activities

Tech Plan: Action Plan FY2014

Goal - note: you can only have one goal for each fiscal year

Please compile the Goal, Strategies and Activities for FY 2015 on the following screens, starting with your first goal. You may compile up to three goals for each year of the plan. Each goal must contain strategies and activities for all areas in the action plan for each year (Instruction, Professional Development and Technology Deployment Data) along with identifying the corresponding timeline for each.
Goal definitions:

·  The goal must promote continuous and substantial progress to ensure that students in each subgroup meet the State’s target.

·  Each goal must be written to identify the current achievement level and specific, measurable outcomes in terms of AYP and/or AMAO and special education compliance to be achieved for each year of the three required years of the plan.

·  The goal must be clear and tightly focused on the fundamental teaching and learning issues that have prevented the district from making adequate progress or maintaining special education compliance.

·  The goal should not be written to target performance that is less than Safe Harbor or AYP and/or AMAO; areas of deficiency must be clearly indicated.

Note: You must enter a goal title on this screen before proceeding to FY 2015 Instruction.
