How do we want to handle this plan? Should we break up into committees or assign individual sections?

I really like the following two sentences that were suggested, "The School District seeks to inspire all students to develop into creative, confident, independent, and successful students committed
\nto lifelong learning, and able to interact as responsible and social members of society" and "The long-term vision is to create a community of learners that are connected to each other, sharing resources and collaborating in new ways. Teachers will become competent users of technology in order to model their creative use, and ultimately empower students to use technology." In a way to possibly combine these ideas and add on to these ideas I was thinking we can use some of the NETS standards listed in chapter 2 of Technology Leadership for School Improvement and turn them into our vision. The book stated that these standards are "high-level policy standards..." For example, on page 31 #2 b & c combines a couple of the ideas already stated, just in the NETS words. If we don't use them to help our vision, we could definitely use them to help develop goals in the second part of this project.","dateCreated":"1310692630","smartDate":"Jul 14, 2011","userCreated":{"username":"c18note","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/c18note","imageUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"}},{"id":"40873363","body":"The Allen School District seek to inspire all students to develop into creative, confident, independent, and successful students committed to lifelong learning who are able to interact as responsible and social members of society.

\nOur vision is that all students will be provided with a rich technological environment for the purpose of enhancing and strengthening their basic skills, creativity, problem-solving, and school-to work\/career skills.
