Putting the Horse Back Before the Cart: Technology Competencies All Educational Administrators Need
First we trained the students; then we trained the staff. Finally we are looking for ways to improve the technology skills of principals, superintendents, and directors. This presentation outlines a set of technology rubrics that can be used in developing a professional development plan for school leaders and suggests ways media and technology specialists can assist in the completion of this plan. No more pointy-haired bosses!

Written comments about this presentation:

• These are rubrics we can adopt locally.
• Such a good job in making an essentially boring topic interesting.
• Administrators are key people in making decisions regarding technology. It’s important that they be knowledgeable. This will help in creating and implementing a plan to make this happen
• Very useful. I haven’t considered training (administrators) until now.
