Is how do we teach students to determine what is useful and what is useless. And that changes our classroom dramatically. We have to teach those skills and information that they have is not all that is just we need to teach them how to access it, but how do we interpret it, how to use the tools in our classroom to make arguments, to be persuasive, to evaluate. The other piece of the Student Experience is that what technology can do as an enabler or an accelerator of schooling is it can add trans...

As we make a shift to instruction and how we expect this to work, we have spent the past couple years spending a lot of time increasing the bandwidth of our infrastructure, but there are many single points of failure in the network we built. A story that i experienced this year is that we spent a physical therapy amount of money of donor funds to put wireless access to our middle schools. And the Parent Teacher conference in the fall, one of the schools wireless access went down so the school wa...

The productivity tools that we shouldnt delineate between what the adults and students use. All students should be using office suites, all students should be using google apps. Those are things we should make traction on quickly. The next piece, the deep and expand, thats the idea that where we need to go, where students have not only the curricula available to them, but they have a box of tool, Digital Tools and they make the decisions on how they use the tools to solve the problems that are p...

Our current state. Mr. Ryans commented that teachers dont have a common place they can go for the curriculum. They dont have a place of materials embedded by the district that aligns to our curricula goals to access videos and documents and other artifacts that are used. Our employee system is over ten years old and it barely supports really the basic transactions of managing an employee. When i was a new hire i had 12 different forms and filled out the exact same information on moegs of those f...

The next thing we need to do is we dont really have a very clear picture of all the devices that are out there, which schools have which devices, which software is on there. So its critical we implement a comprehensive Management System. Our finance department has already started that work to roll out the system for next year and his teams already going to auditing to see whats out there. The other thing i want to do is that pretty much every School District has this history of they get one time...

Were only at 7 percent right now. Devices need to be current and reliable. If theyre more than 4 years old, that the time devices start having issues and become unusable. We need to get one to one device ratio, right now were 1 to [inaudible] device ratio. At the early years prek through 5, we need a mix of tablets and laptops. Then sixth through eighth thats where the shift starts going. Then grades nine through 12 we allow students o bring their own device, however there will be a district fun...

See a few brake lights on our sensors through berkeley and emeryville. That drive time is still 19 minutes from the carquinez bridge to the maze. But it is backing up very quickly out towards the toll plaza. There was also an earlier stall on westbound 80 right before you reach the pay gates. Westbound 580 jammed solid as well through grant line straight on through at least north first street. Thats where we see our slowest traffic and then kind of picks up a bit kind of sluggish all the way to ...
