Background
Over the past eight years, federal and
state funds have advanced the effective use of educational
technology in Louisiana classrooms. As a result, technology-rich
classrooms provide opportunities for students to learn
and teachers to teach in new and exciting ways.
As in other areas of educational reform,
accountability is critical. Thus, an additional challenge
for all involved in educational technology is to provide
other educators and policymakers with information and
data relative to the types of technologies used; the extent
to which technology is integrated into the curriculum;
the proficiencies and practices of students, teachers,
and administrators; and, the extent to which local system
and school technology plans are implemented.
All school systems (public and diocesan,
and special state schools) and all individual schools
(public and non-public) that receive state and/or federal
technology funding are required to complete the statewide
technology reporting instruments. The data collected from these instruments are then synthesized and evaluated on the state level in order to produce LCET's annual evaluation report.
Below are the current and past submission
sites as well as the state level reports.
