Interesting post about the qualities of a great principal: culture builder, visionary, instructional leader, connector, leadership capacity builder & time defender.
This document, prepared by graduate students at Mississippi State University, is a comprehensive guide to elaborate a successful technology plan. It considers not only what must be taken into account technology wise, but the actual mechanics of the plan. It can be a good guide for those with less experience wishing more detailed advice.
Now, this is another timeline but it focuses in the last decades on how tech has been used in education. It ends in 2007, and the next heading is "2008 and beyond..." How cool is that we can already write the history under that heading!!
Teachers who exhibit best practices with technology are "creative, flexible, and adapt ways in which they navigate the constraints, affordances, and interactions within TPACK framework. (Mishra & Koehler, 2008)." Dr. Becker, Is this the method to your madness?
