Counting on the Future Nicole Graham EDU505 Dr. Kaiser

Educational Organization  Focus: 7-12 mathematics classrooms in the ER9 school district  Consists of 2 middle schools in Easton & Redding, Connecticut and 1 regional high school  High socio-economic status within community  Contains 3 Boards of Education with 3 budgets o Poses problems for maintaining consistent technology

Mission Statement & Performance  “To nurture and inspire all students to realize their potential and to become self-sustaining, contributing members of a diverse, continuously changing society” (Maintain Excellence, Manage Costs, 2009)  State standardized test results: o Middle school scores are at 94 th percentile o Decrease in high school scores to 85 th percentile (Connecticut State Department of Education, 2011)

Educational Technology Trends  Young people’s incorporations of Web 2.0 technologies into their lives o Schools are responsible for bringing outside technology into the classroom  Challenges to the pedagogical role and professional development of teachers and other enablers of learning o Has the ability to “ignite student passions” (Iiyoshi & Kumar, 2008) o Without professional development, teachers will use new technology with older teaching styles (Becta, 2008)

Economic, Budgetary & Public Policy Trends  Pattern Recognition o Schools create “educational ecosystems” o Students create “learning footprints” o Collaboration abounds (World of Learning, 2012 )  Sequestration of Federal Education Programs o 1.2 Trillion dollars cut in the next 10 years (National Education Association, 2012) o History shows no improvement in funds once cut (Betts, Hartman & Oxholm, 2009)

Demographic Trends  Increase in elderly population o Population of those over age 65 rose from 8.1%in 1950 to 12.8% by 2009 o The elderly population is forecasted to reach 20.2% by the year 2050 (Shrestha & Heisler, 2011)  Increased demand for post-secondary education o By 2015, 2 million more students will be attending college by 2015 o Many students are non-traditional o Competitiveness of college will increase (Ross-Gordon, 2011)

Futuring Techniques  Futuring can help to overcome education’s lag behind technology  Scenarios provide the opportunity to brainstorm situations and practice responses (Mietzner & Reger, 2005) o Pros: ability to visualize and adapt to many possible futures, promotes collaboration o Cons: requires breadth of knowledge on topic, task is time consuming, tends to lack creativity (Mietzner & Reger, 2005)

Scanning Review multiple sources for trends Observational and research- based Scan Analyze results to monitor how trends relate to the future Analyze Develop scenarios based on where change is likely to occur Scenario (Sobrero, 2004)

Vision 2017  Tablet computing and game-based learning will be fully implemented throughout all of ER9 by 2017 o At least one iPad cart for each grade level present in each school in the district o Math department will research and include at least one game- based learning system for the middle school level and one for the high school level  Tablets are ideal due to their versatility  Game-based learning expands on the usefulness of tablets and promotes problem solving

Challenges & Opportunities  Challenges o Sequestering of federal funds will limit technology budget o Growing elderly population will not be supportive of education o Teachers do not know how to use technology o Need to share technology fairly o Need to upkeep and maintain technology & software  Opportunities o Build a technology network o Continuity of technology within district o Ability to reimage concepts o devise innovative and transformative actions (Danaher et al., 2010). o Increased opportunity to attend college

In Preparation  Develop technology budget  Math specialists attend workshops and report discoveries  Create community awareness regarding changes and needs  Professional development to educate staff  Form technology department

Call to Action  Professional development for the staff must come first o Teachers must understand the current state of the district and where it intends to go in the future  Form technology committee with representatives from each school in the district as well as math department heads and at least one technology department member o Group in charge of: Designing staff professional development days Organizing feedback from staff members regarding on-going progress throughout the school year Monitoring how teachers are implementing the technology in their own classrooms
