Stand Up for Tech in Schools

The International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) has announced the paper and CD, “Advocacy and Educational Technology: A Guide to Getting Your Voice Heard” by Hilary Goldman.  Priced at $5.95 for members and $7.95 for non-members, this guide shows you how you have the power to effect change. With the needs of schools in the digital age, educators have to work together as advocates for getting the technologies they need in their classrooms. Advocacy means understanding the digital needs of your school or district, voicing your beliefs and knowledge, and making sure elected officials keep in mind what today’s schools need. Goldman guides you to becoming more knowledgeable about:  the issues facing tech use in our schools; programs that will help you help your school or district provide effective education to students; and working with ISTE to “transform education in the digital age".
