Strengthen District Leadership and Communications

To be an effective technology leader, you should model innovative uses of technology and empower educators, parents, students and the community with technology solutions.

A quick question: Beyond your cell phone, is there a cutting-edge technology that you use routinely to accomplish your work?

For many superintendents, the answer is no. But technology can help you stay on top of your game, both as a tool for personal productivity and as a means for professional learning, growth, collaboration and communications. You will be a much more informed, passionate and believable advocate of technology in your district – and, when appropriate, with state or federal legislators who also determine technology funding – if you actually use it yourself.
