About this ebook

This book is intended for educational leaders to provide a structured methodology for a school or district to develop their own vision of educational technology.

This book will answer the following questions:

- Why do we need a VISION for Technology in Education?
- How do we develop our own VISION for Educational Technology?
- Does our VISION for educational technology support our District Strategic Plan?
