Purpose of Technology

The Kyrene School District is not consumed with state-of-the-art technology, but rather with the effect that technology can have on the state-of-the-art education of our students.

Technology is rarely the focus of instruction, rather it is a tool that is used to access, gather, and create information; organize and analyze information; and communicate ideas.

 

Evolution Not Revolution

Knowing that all teachers are also learners, technology deployed in Kyrene is always accompanied by the necessary professional development to ensure successful use. Working in manageable steps with sustained professional development, the Kyrene Technology Plan creates an evolutionary growth process instead of a sudden, revolutionary change.
