Making Technology Standards Work for You: A Guide to the NETS•A for School Administrators

A tightly organized guide—designed to be used with ISTE’s NETS for Administrators—this new edition of Making Technology Standards Work for You provides educational leaders with the latest tools and resources for creating both a vision and a process for school reform. Susan Brooks-Young’s update of her classic work incorporates the refreshed NETS•A and remains the definitive guide for the progressive educational leader looking to effectively leverage the potential of technology to enhance student learning. Organized by chapters devoted to single aspects of technology leadership such as planning, curriculum and instruction, assessment, staff development, and legal and social issues, the book provides clear and specific directions for the unique concerns of campus-level, district-level, and superintendent- or cabinet-level leaders, with convenient lists detailing responsibilities. This third edition also features a rigorous refresh of the wealth of references and resources for each standard, as well as a thoughtful discussion of how the roles of administrators and other leaders affect both teacher and student performance in the context of ISTE’s recently refreshed NETS for Students and NETS for Teachers.
