KMS Technology » School Technology Plan
KMS chose to use a wiki as a collaborative tool to facilitate the development of our school's technology plan. The resulting document gives us the ability to share in the process of creating this plan in a public forum. In addition the document is not static but can be under continuous revision, a clear strength in a climate where technology advances faster than plans can be made. We hope that this ongoing draft sums up the key learning we feel students should experience as they move through their middle school years, without holding us to the specific key technologies of today.
