Holistic IT Strategy
Measuring What Matters
Bill Landis Sherry Mitchell
How do you measure success? K-12 education is often guilty of measuring input rather than output. Do you report
numbers of devices, bandwidth, and feelings about technology (surveys) or do you report what is actually
happening in the classroom! LISD first determined what our strategic goal should be related to technology. Using
the SAMR model we measured the use of technology in classrooms. Find out what 6,000 observations told us
about the use of technology.
Jennifer Miller enjoyed hearing how Lubbock ISD reviewed the
technology utilization in their schools. You may wonder why they
decided to measure. They felt that without the why - the what and
the how do not matter. LISD mission is that LISD will embrace and
sustain modern technology tools and digital resources as a fully
integrated system to equip, prepare, and empower future ready
learners. They believed that the learners and instructors should be
using technology in the classroom and that technology should change
what we do in classrooms. During the last 2 school years, the team
has completed at least 3,000 observations each year.
