I. Executive Summary
The Garrett County Public Schools (GCPS) technology plan represents the vision and recommendations
of technology integration into all classrooms. This plan aligns with the Superintendent’s goals to ensure
that all “technological resources provided align to current standards” and that “staff knowledge is kept
up to date by providing yearly refresher training” (Baker, 2015).
Feedback from teacher surveys was the guiding force in determining this technology plan. Applicable
professional development courses and a reasonable budget reflect the vision and mission of the Board
of Education. Due to the changing nature of technology, this plan can be adapted and revised in
subsequent years based on the needs of the district.
2
II. Introduction
a. District Background
In the westernmost part of Maryland, GCPS has 12 schools: two high schools (grades 9-12), two
middle schools (grades 6-8), seven elementary schools (grades PreK-5) and one K-8
public/Amish school. There are 297 teachers for 3811 students. The average attendance rate
for Garrett County students is 94%. The demographics for GCPS in 2018 are detailed in Figure 1.
All elementary schools use Macs while all secondary schools use PCs. One elementary school is
1:1 with Chromebooks (that are kept at school) while all of the remaining schools have carts
(Chromebooks, laptops, iPads) that can be checked out. All schools have the same hardware
(SMART Boards, projectors, one teacher computer, computer speakers) with additional
hardware available upon request by teachers (document camera, STEM technology, robotics
technology, etc.) All teachers have access to the same software with additional software
(content-specific) available upon request by teachers. Teachers do not have “admin rights” to
their computers, so they must wait until a computer technician from the IT Department can
service that request. All schools have Wi-Fi and include a separate password protected Wi-Fi
connection for teachers vs. guests. The Wi-Fi is available in all areas of the school.
For troubleshooting, teachers first reach out to their “technology team” in their building
(comprised of the media specialist, the computer science teacher, and a few other selected
teachers). If problems persist, or require “admin rights,” then one of the two computer
technicians employed by the Board of Education will come to the school. On average, a
technician can be available within two days, but often arrives the same day. For problems that
are quick fixes, such as adding a staff member’s email address to the county-wide email
distribution list, a simple email to the Director of Information Technology will suffice.
3
III. Needs Analysis
a. Discussion of Needs
A Technology survey was created in Google Forms and distributed via email to staff members at
Southern Middle School. All staff received one additional email as a reminder to complete the
survey between February 18-28, 2019. The survey included 15 questions in regard to 1) how
devices are used in the classroom 2) the quality/types of devices available to staff and students
and 3) professional development for teachers. The number of staff respondents was 22.
Overwhelmingly, staff members (77.3%) feel that technology is critical to the learning
experiences of students and that the technology available is in “good” (59.1%) shape. Most
staff members indicated that they feel comfortable (40.9%) or very comfortable (36.4%)
implementing the current technology to help support or enhance their instructional strategies.
However, 68.2% said that they were open to changing their instruction to make increased use
of technology. This indicates that teachers are comfortable with the technology they already
use, but uncomfortable with implementing technology in which they have no experience. This is
confirmed in their short answer suggestions for professional development; there were several
specific technology PDs requested by teachers.
Most staff members at Southern Middle School feel technology is important in their non-
instructional duties. 85% said technology is “mostly a positive experience for them as a teacher
(collaborating with other teachers, lesson planning, communication purposes, grading, etc.)”.
However, they feel that they need professional development on new, required initiatives,
specifically, Planbook.com.
There are concerns with students using county-devices (ex. students being off task or
destructive to equipment) but the staff is overwhelmingly unsupportive (72.7%) of a BYOD
(Bring Your Own Device) initiative. Most teachers would prefer to have a classroom set of
computers (Chromebooks 66.7%, laptops 4.8%, MacBooks 4.8%) instead of 1:1 Chromebooks
that could be taken home (19%).
In general, the staff indicated that they need more time to learn to use technology on their own
and within their collaborative departments. In terms of professional development, 54.5%
indicated they want technology PDs to be completed within their department or content area.
Staff members would prefer that these be completed during the scheduled monthly 3-hour
dismissal Professional Development Days.
The years of teaching experience of the staff is a mix. It’s encouraging to see that most of the
respondents are comfortable with the technology they have and are eager to learn more.
4
b. Summary of Key Challenges
Based on the Needs Analysis Survey, there were five major concerns among teachers. These are
listed in order of most to least important, based on the percentage of respondents indicating
their concerns:
1. Concerns with BYOD policies and procedures and what implementation will look
like
2. Teachers are unprepared for the Planbook.com initiative
3. Teachers need more time to collaborate, within their content area, on
technology integration ideas and strategies.
4. Teachers need more time on their own to try out technology.
5. Concerns with students using county devices
a. Program Goal
The goal of this program is to support teachers’ technology integration efforts to increase
student learning in all content areas.
b. Program Outcomes
o All teachers will create a technology plan for their classes for the 2019-2020
school year.
o All teachers will use planbook.com as their primary planning tool for the
2019-2020 school year.
o All teachers will use one form of interactive assessment in their classroom by
the end of the school year. They will use this data to inform the students’
instructional needs for the following class.
o All teachers will incorporate two knew instructional technologies into their
classroom by the end of the year.
c. Program Standards
In the absence of a district-wide strategic technology plan, this program will utilize the ISTE
Standards for Educators and the SAMR (Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, Redefinition)
Framework.
5
1a Set professional learning goals to explore and apply pedagogical approaches
made possible by technology and reflect on their effectiveness.
5b Design authentic learning activities that align with content area standards
and use digital tools and resources to maximize active, deep learning.

d. Target Audience
This program is intended for the teaching staff at Southern Middle School. The experience of
the teaching staff is mixed, as evidenced by Figure 2.
7
Tiered learning experiences will be offered based on the needs of each teacher. Level 1 learners
are teachers who have little experience in utilizing technology and integrating technology. Level
2 learners are teachers who have mastered technology basics but want to utilize and integrate
more technologies. Level 3 learners are technology users who integrate technology regularly,
are confident in their technological skills, but are interested in discovering new tools and
strategies for integration.

VI. Evaluation
All evaluations will be based on the Kirkpatrick Model in order to determine how effective the
course training is and what needs improvement (www.kirkpatrickpartners.com). The New
World Kirkpatrick Model consists of four levels:
1. Reaction: The degree to which participants find the training favorable, engaging and
relevant to their jobs.
2. Learning: The degree to which participants acquire the intended knowledge, skills,
attitude, confidence and commitment based on their participation in the training
3. Behavior: The degree to which participants apply what they learned during training
when they are back on the job
4. Results: The degree to which targeted outcomes occur as a result of the training and the
support and accountability package
This model will be adapted for each evaluation opportunity (field test evaluation, course
evaluation, and program evaluation) detailed below.
Before administering to the staff, the Google Apps for Beginners course will be performed and
tested by the technology team. The technology specialist will use their own GCPS Google
account to create a fictional Google Classroom “class” and instruct the technology team to
“join” the class. They will create a Google Form and upload it into the Classroom as a test. The
technology team will move through the course content in order to revise the step-by-step plan
and to re-work any portions of the course. Teachers will “join” each other’s Google Classroom
projects in order to experience the platform from a student-user perspective. It’s important
that they experience what the students will see in order to troubleshoot problems in-classroom
application.
The technology team will use the Kirkpatrick Model’s “Reaction” level to evaluate this field test.
They will determine how favorably they felt about this field test. They will evaluate the content,
materials, and presentation and adjust the needs accordingly.
12
c. Workshop Evaluation
The technology team will use all levels of the Kirkpatrick Model to evaluate each course
individually. The content and/or delivery of each course will be adapted, based on the teacher
survey data received after each course.
1. Reaction: teachers will indicate how favorably they feel toward the training. They will
evaluate the content, materials, presentation, instructor, and venue.
2. Learning: the technology team will measure what teachers have learned with pre-
assessment and post-assessment questions.
3. Behavior: the technology team will evaluate whether teachers have applied their new
knowledge and changed their behavior, based on the course, by interview and survey
questions.
4. Results: the technology team will analyze the final results by measuring against the
course standards.
The Workshop Evaluation Survey is located in Appendix C and will be administered on Google
Forms.
The technology team will use all levels of the Kirkpatrick Model to evaluate the success of the
Garrett County District Training Technology Plan. Data from course surveys will be compiled to
determine:
2. Learning: the percentage of teachers who improved their learning based on the pre- and
post-course assessments.
3. Behavior: the technology team will evaluate whether teachers have applied their new
knowledge and changed their behavior, based on the course, by interview, observation,
and survey questions
4. Results: the technology team will analyze the final results by measuring against the
program outcomes and standards
The Summative Program Evaluation Survey is located in Appendix D and will be administered on
Google Forms.
13
VII. Budget
According to the GCPS’ calendar for the 2019-2020 school year, there are 39 hours allotted
specifically for professional development (PD). All teachers are required to attend PD during
those times. By utilizing some of these times to administer courses in this technology plan, the
budget is minimal because 1) there is no fee for utilizing the space, 2) there is no need for
stipends, per diem, or travel costs 3) the “technology team” in the building is made up of 5
teacher-leaders in technology and can present course material 4) PD information is
disseminated via email by the building principal, therefore there are no marketing costs.
Additionally, according to the Needs Analysis Survey, teachers at Southern Middle School
simply want training in the technology hardware and software that the school currently owns.
There are a few courses that will not be offered during the allotted PD times but, rather, will be
offered at other times during the school year or during the summer. For those few courses, and
for additional courses added in subsequent years, a budget is included.
14
These costs will be allocated within the Board of Education’s projected $185,788 staff
development budget for the 2019-2020 school year.
VIII. Follow Up
This plan was designed as a result of the Needs Analysis Survey which teachers completed, that
indicated their technology needs and recommendations. Following the completion of the GCPS’
Technology Plan, teachers should exhibit improved technology knowledge and integration that
is demonstrated in their classroom instruction. In order to determine the effectiveness of the
plan, a summative report will be compiled, highlighting the key successes of the program.

the writing process, especially peer editing and conferencing. Google forms are good too. I am unable to
do this consistently because of lack of desktops for each student everyday or even most days. There are
awesome academic, common-core based programs I have used. Two are no red ink.com and
newsela.com. Both free versions are good, but the paid versions are really outstanding in regards to data

several interactive programs, such as quizzizz.com and goformative.com.

Repairs, time equipment is out. Enough for all students to be able to use it.
Devices not working, taking up too much class time for students to get a device they can login too.
misuse; breakage
No matter how closely devices are monitored, students are misusing devices. They access games when
they should be working on assignments. They type inappropriate messages to see what will happen. It's
time consuming to monitor. Punishing students for misuse only creates more work for the teacher.
Inappropriate use. Our students are already using screens WAY too much in their personal lives...
destruction of property cyber bullying
Cost for upkeep/updating....but technology is going to cost money. If we want our kids to be career and
college ready, they need to feel comfortable and competent with technology.
They don't properly care for devices.
Distractions with social media
That not all students will have the same devices with the same capabilities and I will have to manage
glitches on multiple types of devices at the same time.
My biggest concern would be whether or not we hold students completely financially responsible for their
devices. I would much rather have students carrying county controlled and monitored devices than relying
on students to appropriately use their own technology and expecting teachers to address tech issues with
various devices in a class setting.
I have no major concerns.
