"AR
Project Summary"
My
Action Research Project “Implementation
of Technology in the Classroom” is related to and encompasses the use of
technology. One of my main priorities in this implementation was the Internet
Safety. At Harmony Public Schools, we believe every child can succeed in
college, career, and life. We adhere to
the Texas Education Agency’s standards and follow guidelines of No Child Left
Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB) is a United States Act of Congress that
came about as wide public concern about the state of education.
The
community and parents are very concerned about their childrens’ digital
exposure. Now
with knowledge acquired in class EDLD 5326 School Community Relations I feel
comfortable leading, designing, modificating, and implementing activities to
promote community involvement. We have been used a variety of formats and
avenues of communication; regular meetings, interviews, group processes,
suggestion boxes, and open-door policies. Our school is Title 1 and we have
included different activities to meet NCLB requirement: Staff development and
training for all stakeholders, promoting and supporting parenting skills,
meaningful communication between home and school,creating a welcoming environment
for all cultures. All
events scheduled are focused to encourage students to improve involvement, empower
parents, and support the teachers.
Finally, by reaching individual students’ needs we can focus on maintaining
high standards of achievement and assessments.
The
edition included in my Action Research “Implementation
of Technology in the Classroom” is a
School-Community-Parnerhsip Project. This
will allow all participants to evaluate the challenging curriculum, assess
individual student learning, provide support to ensure student academic
progress, ensure a safe learning environment, and enhance communications
between staff, parents, and students benefiting the entire learning community.
