4. Professional development and program evaluation
Technology coaches conduct needs assessments, develop technology-related professional learning programs, and evaluate the impact on instructional practice and student learning.
a. Conduct needs assessments to inform the content and delivery of technology-related professional learning programs that result in a positive impact on student learning
The link below, connects to a Needs Assessment. I have been doing these for years without calling it that. They are important so that students aren't taught the same information time and time again, because no one wants to speak up. It is also allows the teacher to know where to start before giving a lesson or course on the information.
b. Design, develop, and implement technology rich professional learning programs that model principles of adult learning and promote digital age best practices in teaching, learning, and assessment
The links below cover the creation and usage of social media safely for the classroom, a professional development and a list of resources with similar foundations for using in a professional development and in the classroom.
c. Evaluate results of professional learning programs to determine the effectiveness on deepening teacher content knowledge, improving teacher pedagogical skills and/or increasing student learning
