Once more I was amazed at a story where a person went in and build up a technology department from what seems like ground zero within a school. You can see the time and hard work that went into the policies and budgeting that he has created for his job. I just love to see someone who works hard genuinely out of pure advancement for the school and the students. He also doesn't stop at being satisfied at what he has. He is always looking towards new and innovative technologies, even if it costs lots of money. Even still, he is realistic though it all.
It was also good when Dr. Krug asked about the relationship between tech coordinators and classroom teachers. The relationship is so important to build up a good schools based on technology. I could see how many schools could fail in technology uses just because there is not a good relationship between the tech coordinators and the classroom teachers.
I also hadn't understood what policies were until Adam had talked about it. I really enjoy how he passed around the policy for CAK so that we could see a real life one. I see now that it is very important to have policies especially with technology because technology is such a big thing. I have trouble wrapping my head around it and one can easily get lost with in it. With those policies and boundaries, funny business is less likely to happen and learning can be done in a good and safe environment.
