Optimals vs. Actuals Every teacher checks their email every day that they are at work. Some teachers have as many as 311 unread messages in their inbox. This actual doesn’t match the optimal – how often do teachers check their email? What percentage of teachers meets the optimal vs. the actual. You need to quantify the gap. Every teacher responds appropriately to emails that require a response. Some teachers do not respond to email messages, say they "don't know how." Every teacher can demonstrate that they know how to attach a document to an email message. Some teachers send emails stating that they have attached a document, but nothing is attached to the message. Every teacher can demonstrate that they know how to print out email attachments to use as a note sheet in a meeting, if necessary. Some teachers write down on a separate sheet of paper what they are seeing on the screen in the email message, then using that paper as an agenda at a meeting.
An email survey was sent to all 35 teachers An email survey was sent to all 35 teachers. A hard copy of the survey was also placed in all mailboxes and teachers were invited to respond either via the Internet or the hard copy. 23 teachers responded to the survey. Some of the questions asked were: 1) Do you know how to open the email Outlook program?; 2) Do you know how to access your inbox in Outlook?; 3) Do you know how to check to see if you have new email messages?; 4) Do you know how to compose a new email message?; 5) Do you know how to reply to an email message?; 6) Do you know how to open an email attachment? Some results were: 25% of the teachers didn't know how to open the Outlook program (some commented that it just opened whenever they turned on their computer) 11% of the teachers didn't know how to compose an email message 34% of the teachers didn't know how to open an email attachment
