1. Does your school have an Internet Acceptable Use Policy?
Yes. It is outlined according to the Child Internet Protection Act and is seemingly very up to date and meets the needs of both our district and the current technologies available to our students.
2. Does your school have an Internet Publishing Policy?
Yes we do.
3. Does your school have a Distance Education Policy?
Yes. Coming from an elementary background, I had never really considered a Distance Education Policy and upon first reading this week's question, didn't know for sure if we did have that policy. I was pleasantly surprised to see that we do have a Distance Education Policy and it seems very thorough.
4. What does your district do to keep these policies up to date?
Our Technology Committee meets yearly to update and approve the Technology Play which includes all of the aforementioned policies. Our Technology Committee consists of our Technology Director, the Superintendent, the Director of Curriculum and Instruction, Tech Support Employee, three principals (one from each level; elementary, middle, high), and four teachers that represent the three different levels (plus two from the elementary).

ReplyDeleteRob,
It is great that you have a Technology Committee that meets regularly to keep your technology policies up-to-date. It is also good that you have the major technologies in place, which include Acceptable Use Policy, web publishing policy, and distance learning policy.
