Grant Proposal
Executive Overview
The report details a grant proposal plan for curricular
technology integration at a new networked charter school. In an
attempt to make learning accessible, the school plans to adopt a
curricular technology. Successful implementation of this project
will help the networked charter school to meet various
educational and curricular needs, including improving teacher-
student interaction, achieving learner-centered teaching, and
improving efficiency and accountability. The budget of the
proposal is estimated to be $20,000, including $10,000
computer hardware expenses and $8,000 for software, staff
development, maintenance, and other costs. The funding sources
for the proposed program include State and Federal grants. The
school will also partner with corporate and private foundations
such as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to raise funds for
the program. The implementation of the program will take
approximately six months to be completed. The initial planning
of the project will take one month, and the purchase and
installation of the computer system. Staff development, which
includes training of students and teachers on how to networked
computers, will take two months, while configuration and
testing of the computer system will be completed in the last
month.
Statement of Educational and Curricular Needs
Integration of the curricular technology plays a critical role in
the improvement of the overall educational outcomes. The
implementation of this proposal will address various
educational and curricular needs in the network charter school.
First, the changes in the modern educational system have made
it mandatory for schools to use technology to facilitate
educational outcomes. The current education system requires
teachers to account for student’s progress in school, hence the
need to use the most efficient teaching approach. No Child Left
Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001 emphasizes accountability for
quality and progress in school (Roblyer & Doering, 2012).
Some students, including those with disabilities, find it difficult
learning in traditional classrooms using typical teaching
approaches. Therefore, curricular technology integration helps
in ensuring that these students have access to assistive learning
technologies and improve their interaction with instructors.
Another educational and curricular need being addressed by the
proposed educational technology integration is the issue of a
learner-centered teaching approach. This learning system
requires reading materials to be customized to meet the diverse
needs of the learner and ensure fairness and equality in the
learning environment. The use of educational technologies such
as hypermedia will help in achieving this goal. According to
Gerjets & Kirschner (2009), hypermedia materials such as
videos and graphics stimulate learner’s interest to learn and
gain knowledge. Consequently, the emergence of online
learning has increased the need for integration of curricular
technology. Roblyer and Doering (2012) indicate that there is
an increasing reliance on virtual K-12 courses in the U.S.
mainstream education system. This phenomenon requires
schools to implement educational technologies in their
classroom. Overall, the proposed curricular technology
integration seeks to improve teaching efficiency and enhance
student learning outcomes.
Proposal Goals and Objectives
The main curricular technology integration proposal is to
enhance student learning outcome through the use of
educational technologies. The integration of curricular
technology is the school is expected to enhance student
achievement by increasing their access to unique information
resources. The use of various technologies allows students to
access a wide range of information, hence enriching their
knowledge base. Integrating educational technology also allows
students to organize ideas and solve problems using a var iety of
media and technologies.
Another goal of curricular technology integration is to provide a
creative and meaningful learning environment for teachers and
students. This proposal recognizes the need to create a
supportive learning environment in the school. Some of the
objectives for obtaining this goal includes adopting educational
technology that allows instructors to transfer knowledge using
media and other modern learning tools. Moreover, the grant
proposal seeks to ensure that all students in the networked
charter school have equitable access to learning opportunities
and technology resources. This goal can be measured by the
number of students who can access and use curricular
technology in the school. Additionally, curricular technology
integration project aims at increasing access to education by
removing constraints of time and place. Objectively, education
technology focuses on instituting distance learning by
integrating online learning programs such as Zoom and Webex
in the system.
Proposed School Partnerships
The integration of curricular technology in the school requires
adequate funding. Roblyer & Doering (2012) argues that the
success or failures of a technology plan depend on available
funding. The funds are used in purchasing hardware and
software and setting up the physical infrastructure that will help
the school in fulfilling its curriculum needs. Even so, the school
do not have a budget to finance the curricular technology
proposal. As a result, they must establish partnerships with
governments, companies or groups to achieve its goals and
objectives.
The school can source funds for curricular technology
integration from the federal grants. The federal government
funds different initiatives such as educational technology
integration through its grant programs. Grants.gov program,
under the Office of Management and Budget, provides over
1000 federal funding opportunities to grant seekers Grant.gov,
2020). Alternatively, the charter school should consider
sourcing funds for its project from the state Ed-Tech program.
According to the U.S. Department of Education (ED, 2014), Ed-
Tech program supports school technological initiatives by
providing grants to State educational agencies (SEAs). As a
result, the school should partner with both federal and state
funding agencies to raise funds for its curricular technology
integration initiative.
The school can also source funds from private groups and
corporate organizations. Roblyer & Doering (2012) large
companies such as Honda and Verizon have charity foundations
that provide grants to technology-related programs in schools.
Similarly, the school can raise funds for its project through
private funding sources such as The Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation, NEA Foundation, and Pearson funding. As a result,
federal, state, corporate grants and private foundations are the
major sources of funding to the school curricular technology
integration program.
Implementation Plan
The implementation of the curricular technology integration
program will take a maximum of six months to be completed.
The project is estimated to cost approximately $20,000. These
include the cost of purchasing computer hardware, software,
installation fee and technical support, staff development, and
other expense such as maintenance. The school plans to install
four networked computers in each classroom and 25 others in
the computer lab. In the initial phase, the school board will
hold a meeting with all stakeholders to deliberate on the
implementation of the program. The board will appoint a project
manager will be responsible for managing and directing project
resource. One of the tasks of the project manager will be
selecting project team members who will undertake the actual
implementation process.
The next step of the plan involves the planning of the program
activities. At this stage, the project manager will identify
project deliverables, prepare the project schedule, and assign
tasks to the project team members. Some of the deliverables
during the implementation of the curricular technology
integration include identification and selection of appropriate
software vendor, computer hardware purchases, preparing
classrooms and computer labs for the installation of the
computer system, and staff development, including allocation of
materials and staff training.
After successful planning, the project manager, with the
assistance of the project team members will identify potential
risks that might affect the project. Some of the potential
challenges that might jeopardize the implementation of this
project include inadequate funds, inability to online and legal
policies, and staff resistance. After the approval from the board
to continue, the installation of the computer network in the
school will commence. The process will begin with the
installation of 25 networked computers in the school computer
lab and followed by the other four computers in each classroom.
The next step involves the training of teachers, students, and
administrative staff responsible for handling the computers.
Once the staff development activity has been completed, the
team will configure software, test the computer system, and
launch the project.
Budget Narrative
The budget of the grant proposal is $20,000. The funds will be
allocated to key deliverables in curricular technology
integration. For instance, the school will use $10,000 from the
funds to purchase 29 computer hardware that will be installed in
classrooms and the computer lab. Four networked computers
will be installed in each classroom, while the other 25
networked computers will be installed in the lab. Fifty percent
of the budget is allocated to computer hardware purchases
because they are costly. On the other hand, computer software
is allocated $4,500, $1,500 for technical support, $3,000 for
technical support, while other expenses such as maintenance
and scheduling are allocated $1,000. The program is scheduled
to be completed within six months.
Staff development, which includes training, will be done in-
person after school. According to Roblyer & Doering (2012), a
learner must have hands-on technology to learn technology
integration skills efficiently. Therefore, online training which
involves watching demonstrations, will not be sufficient to
achieve adequate staff development goals.

CRT 162
Sample State University
Summer 2 2020
July 10, 2020
Introduction
This is a presentation to integrate new computers and online
programs in the Melvin H. Kreps Middle School. These
additional resources are going to be used to help the 8th grade
math students that are in the standard math course for 8th grade.
These students have failed to perform well on state testing these
past few years. According to the 2018-2019 NJ School
Performance Report, only 13% of students in the 8th grade met
expectations on the state test in math.
The types of computers that will be installed into the school
will be four network computers, a computer lab with 25 network
computers, and a portable wireless lab with 25 laptops. These
new computers will give the 8th grade math students access to
online programs that will help enhance their math skills. Some
of these online resources will include Google Applications for
Education and other free online website that will make learning
more engaging for students.
We would like to purchase an online resource that will help
students to fill learning gaps with math content that is not grade
level. The program that can help use to do this is iReady.
iReady is an online program that is individualized for each
student based on their learning needs in math. Student take a
diagnostic assessment that determines what grade level students
fall under in four different math domains: algebra, geometry,
number sense, and measurement and data. Then students will
work on individualized lesson that are about 20 to 45 minutes to
help them to relearn certain skills. iReady will be used as
supplemental instruction to the grade level content taught in the
classroom.
Technology
Solution
with High Relative Advantages
This program will have many advantages to helping students to
increase their math potential in the classroom and on state
testing. iReady is individualized for every student and give
them lessons where they will relearn old topics or introduce
new concepts that the students will learn on their own. These
lessons have introduction tutorials that have colorful graphic
and explain the lessons using kid friendly terms. These tutorials
are much more interesting than watching a YouTube video with
someone explaining the skill. At the end of each lesson the
students take a five to seven question quiz where they will be
assessed on the skills that the tutorial just walked them through.
Students receive their quiz score right away so that they can
receive immediate feedback. If a student fails the quiz they will
have to do the lesson again; they have three attempts to pass a
lesson. The teacher will provide one on one intervention to
students that have failed a lesson three times in a row. Teachers
can track student progress on their lessons through the reporting
feature in iReady.
The lessons also incorporate the use of this skill in everyday
life. I feel that it is important to include this in math so students
see the relevance of what they are learning. The questions that
students are asking are more than just “skill and drill” type
questions. Students will be asked to solve problems using
problem solving strategies. It is important that the teacher lets
students know that they need to use a pencil and paper when
using iReady to work out the problems. The teacher will model
how to complete a lesson with the class to show students how to
use the scrap paper and pencil effectively.
The installation of new computers into the middle school will
help to successfully implement iReady to the 8th grade math
students. Students also have access to the Google Applications
for Education. Google provides many different applications to
use the classroom to make learning more engaging while
teaching students 21st century skills. The next section I will
explain how iReady will be used in the classroom with the use
of the new technology being installed into the building.
Implementation of iReady using the Technology Integration
Planning Model
This program will be used to reinforce the material that students
will be learning in the classroom. Students will take three
diagnostics a year to assess their mathematical knowledge in
order to provide them with lessons. Each students will get their
own set of lessons after they take each diagnostic. These lesson
are based on the New Jersey Student Learning Standards. Lower
students will relearn old content that will help them to better
understand grade level content. Students that are on grade level
will use iReady to reinforce what they are learning in the
classroom. Higher students will use iReady to learn new content
that has not yet been covered in the classroom. This program
automatically differentiates the lessons for students so that the
teacher doesn’t have to. If I student does not pass a lesson after
three attempts it will lock the domain that the lesson comes
from. The teacher will have to monitor student progress to see if
any domains have been locked because those students will be
required to have teacher intervention.
The next few paragraphs will cover the three phases of
integrating iReady into the 8th grade math class. In phase 1,
teachers will collect data and understand the needs of their
students. In phase 2, teachers will follow through with what was
collected in phase 1 to implement the program to students. In
phase 3, teachers will analyze the progress that students are
making in iReady to see if any intervention needs to be given to
students.
During Phase 1 of implementing iReady, the teachers will
determine how to use iReady for students in their classroom.
The diagnostic testing will allow teachers to collect base line
data on students’ mathematical ability. Students will take the
first diagnostic in the beginning of the year, the second one in
the middle of the year, and the third one at the end of the year.
The goal is for students to grow in between each diagnostic to
get them closer to grade level in order to perform better on state
testing. Teachers will be able to track student progress on
iReady using the reports from the three diagnostics.
During Phase 2 of implementing iReady, the teachers will
analyze the data from the diagnostics to make a plan for
integrating the lessons into the classroom. iReady will be a
supplemental program in additional to the content that they are
learning in the classroom. It is recommended by iReady that
students complete about 45 minutes a week in order to grow two
grade levels from the first diagnostic to the third diagnostic.
When implementing this program the school will utilize the new
computers that are being added to the middle school. Each
teacher will schedule the computer lab with 25 computers for a
class period every other week to work on iReady. This will
allow for students to get about 45 minutes to work only on
iReady with teachers support. Scheduling it every other week
will allow for all classes to be able to use the computer lab.
Teachers will also sign up to use the computer cart for a
minimum of once a week to use the computer for small group
time. Students will have time to log onto iReady and work on
other engaging online activities during small group time. Some
of these online activities could be an assignment in Google
Classroom using Google Forms, Google Docs, or Google Slides
Students will log about 20 to 60 minutes of iReady time during
the school week. Students will also be required to complete 30
minutes of iReady throughout the week for homework.
The planning for phase 2 will be easy for the teacher when
accommodating the needs of diverse learners since iReady is
already individualized. It will help the special education
students to work on lower level skills. These students may never
be on grade level after using iReady, but you should see growth
of about two grade levels if implemented correctly. English
Language Learners can also benefit from the use of iReady.
According to English Learners and All Student Comparisons
from the ESSA Level 3 2017–2018 Study, students that receive
iReady along with their regular class instruction will grow 44%
more in math compared to ELL students that do not use iReady.
The classroom with four network computers will be used as a
computer lab for students with specific learning needs. These
classes are usually small so the teacher will be able to have four
students working independently on iReady while working with
another small groups of students.
The reporting that is done in iReady will help with the
analyzing and reviewing of lesson that is done in phase 3.
Teachers should check student progress biweekly to see how
students are progressing through the lesson. If a student fails a
lesson three times it locks that domain and the teachers is to
provide intervention for that student on that topic. This
intervention is to be provided during computer lab time. After
the intervention is delivered the teacher will reopen the domain
for students to work on lesson again.
After the second diagnostic is given teachers will analyze
students grow to see if students are benefiti ng from time spent
on iReady. Teachers can use this information to determine if the
use of iReady in the classroom is effective and make any
changes if needed. Some of the changes that teachers will look
into are time on iReady in the classroom and at home, teacher
support during iReady, and performance in the classroom. We
won’t be able to analyze the full effects of iReady until we
receive the data from the state test after the use of iReady. The
hope is that if iReady implemented correctly then students
should show growth from last year. As a reminder, last year
only 13% of 8th grade math students were proficient on the
state test.
Cost of Google Applications for Education & iReady
All of the students will be given their own emails and logins for
the Google Applications for Education. Students will be able to
use the Google Applications for email, word processing,
presentations, video chats, and use Google Classroom to
connect with the teacher and other students. We are choosing to
use these applications with students because this product is free.
The cost for the iReady program is $30 per student per year.
This price includes the use of the iReady diagnostics and
iReady instruction program. There are 230 students in standard
8th grade math, so the cost for them to use iReady is $6,900 for
the year. There is also an additional cost of $2,500 to $3,500 for
professional development training for teachers on how to
implement the program effectively in their classroom. Students
and teachers are able to access iReady using their online
platform so there is no program that needs to be downloaded
onto the new computers in the school. The benefits of the
purchase of this product is the ability to fill in learning gaps of
8th grade math students and increase state test scores. If the 8th
grade student benefit from this product then we can push out
this product to rest of the middle school students to help
address their learning gaps as soon as possible.
Scheduling and Technology Set Up
Teachers will share the use of the new computers by scheduling
time to work with them. Teachers will be able to sign out the
use of the computer lab once every other week for a period and
the use of the laptop cart once a week. There are six 8th grade
math teachers, so teachers will be able to sign up for computer
time with ease. There should even be opportunity for teachers to
sign up to use the computer more than what was recommended.
The special education & ESL teachers will also be involved in
using the laptop cart. They will be able to share the computer
lab with four computer among themselves.
The technology department will install the computers in the
computer lab over the summer and also set up the laptops in the
computer cart. The technology department will also set up log
in for the students. They will need log in information for the
computers, Google Apps, and for iReady. Each students will be
given their own unique log in and password to the ensure
security of students information and files. The login for all of
these different programs will be the same. The login will be the
students email with their ID numbers and their passwords will
be their birthdays. The teachers will also have access to student
log in information in case a student forgets. The technology
department will be available to help with computer repairs and
technology issues throughout the school year. All of this can be
done remotely by the technology unless there is physical
damage done to a device then it must be repaired.
All computers will have Google Chrome installed as the main
browser because the Google Applications work the best on
Google Chrome. Google Chrome also allows students to
download other free extensions to the browser to help enhance
their learning. An example of some of these programs are
Screencastify, Equatio, and Grammerly.
The two computer labs with network computers will be hard
wired for their internet access. The technology will install Wi -
Fi hotspots into each classroom to allow students to have a
strong internet connection when using the computers. In the
past we have had hotspots installed in the hallways for classes
to share the connection, but many teachers have complained
about connect during class. Installing individual hotspots in
each classroom should help teachers with these internet
connection problems in the classroom.
Conclusion
The main purpose of implementing all of this new technology is
to help to increase students learning in math and to improve
state test scores. After these programs have successfully been
implemented to the 8th grade math students we hope to show
improvement on the state testing. If tremendous growth is
shown the goal is to be able to implement iReady to all students
in the elementary and middle schools, so that we do not have to
wait until 8th grade to begin to reinforce math skills.

  • 4. Grant Proposal Executive Overview The report details a grant proposal plan for curricular technology integration at a new networked charter school. In an attempt to make learning accessible, the school plans to adopt a curricular technology. Successful implementation of this project will help the networked charter school to meet various educational and curricular needs, including improving teacher- student interaction, achieving learner-centered teaching, and improving efficiency and accountability. The budget of the proposal is estimated to be $20,000, including $10,000 computer hardware expenses and $8,000 for software, staff development, maintenance, and other costs. The funding sources for the proposed program include State and Federal grants. The school will also partner with corporate and private foundations such as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to raise funds for the program. The implementation of the program will take approximately six months to be completed. The initial planning of the project will take one month, and the purchase and installation of the computer system. Staff development, which includes training of students and teachers on how to networked
  • 5. computers, will take two months, while configuration and testing of the computer system will be completed in the last month. Statement of Educational and Curricular Needs Integration of the curricular technology plays a critical role in the improvement of the overall educational outcomes. The implementation of this proposal will address various educational and curricular needs in the network charter school. First, the changes in the modern educational system have made it mandatory for schools to use technology to facilitate educational outcomes. The current education system requires teachers to account for student’s progress in school, hence the need to use the most efficient teaching approach. No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001 emphasizes accountability for quality and progress in school (Roblyer & Doering, 2012). Some students, including those with disabilities, find it difficult learning in traditional classrooms using typical teaching approaches. Therefore, curricular technology integration helps in ensuring that these students have access to assistive learning technologies and improve their interaction with instructors. Another educational and curricular need being addressed by the proposed educational technology integration is the issue of a learner-centered teaching approach. This learning system requires reading materials to be customized to meet the diverse needs of the learner and ensure fairness and equality in the learning environment. The use of educational technologies such as hypermedia will help in achieving this goal. According to Gerjets & Kirschner (2009), hypermedia materials such as videos and graphics stimulate learner’s interest to learn and gain knowledge. Consequently, the emergence of online learning has increased the need for integration of curricular technology. Roblyer and Doering (2012) indicate that there is an increasing reliance on virtual K-12 courses in the U.S. mainstream education system. This phenomenon requires schools to implement educational technologies in their classroom. Overall, the proposed curricular technology
  • 6. integration seeks to improve teaching efficiency and enhance student learning outcomes. Proposal Goals and Objectives The main curricular technology integration proposal is to enhance student learning outcome through the use of educational technologies. The integration of curricular technology is the school is expected to enhance student achievement by increasing their access to unique information resources. The use of various technologies allows students to access a wide range of information, hence enriching their knowledge base. Integrating educational technology also allows students to organize ideas and solve problems using a var iety of media and technologies. Another goal of curricular technology integration is to provide a creative and meaningful learning environment for teachers and students. This proposal recognizes the need to create a supportive learning environment in the school. Some of the objectives for obtaining this goal includes adopting educational technology that allows instructors to transfer knowledge using media and other modern learning tools. Moreover, the grant proposal seeks to ensure that all students in the networked charter school have equitable access to learning opportunities and technology resources. This goal can be measured by the number of students who can access and use curricular technology in the school. Additionally, curricular technology integration project aims at increasing access to education by removing constraints of time and place. Objectively, education technology focuses on instituting distance learning by integrating online learning programs such as Zoom and Webex in the system. Proposed School Partnerships The integration of curricular technology in the school requires adequate funding. Roblyer & Doering (2012) argues that the success or failures of a technology plan depend on available funding. The funds are used in purchasing hardware and software and setting up the physical infrastructure that will help
  • 7. the school in fulfilling its curriculum needs. Even so, the school do not have a budget to finance the curricular technology proposal. As a result, they must establish partnerships with governments, companies or groups to achieve its goals and objectives. The school can source funds for curricular technology integration from the federal grants. The federal government funds different initiatives such as educational technology integration through its grant programs. Grants.gov program, under the Office of Management and Budget, provides over 1000 federal funding opportunities to grant seekers Grant.gov, 2020). Alternatively, the charter school should consider sourcing funds for its project from the state Ed-Tech program. According to the U.S. Department of Education (ED, 2014), Ed- Tech program supports school technological initiatives by providing grants to State educational agencies (SEAs). As a result, the school should partner with both federal and state funding agencies to raise funds for its curricular technology integration initiative. The school can also source funds from private groups and corporate organizations. Roblyer & Doering (2012) large companies such as Honda and Verizon have charity foundations that provide grants to technology-related programs in schools. Similarly, the school can raise funds for its project through private funding sources such as The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, NEA Foundation, and Pearson funding. As a result, federal, state, corporate grants and private foundations are the major sources of funding to the school curricular technology integration program. Implementation Plan The implementation of the curricular technology integration program will take a maximum of six months to be completed. The project is estimated to cost approximately $20,000. These include the cost of purchasing computer hardware, software, installation fee and technical support, staff development, and other expense such as maintenance. The school plans to install
  • 8. four networked computers in each classroom and 25 others in the computer lab. In the initial phase, the school board will hold a meeting with all stakeholders to deliberate on the implementation of the program. The board will appoint a project manager will be responsible for managing and directing project resource. One of the tasks of the project manager will be selecting project team members who will undertake the actual implementation process. The next step of the plan involves the planning of the program activities. At this stage, the project manager will identify project deliverables, prepare the project schedule, and assign tasks to the project team members. Some of the deliverables during the implementation of the curricular technology integration include identification and selection of appropriate software vendor, computer hardware purchases, preparing classrooms and computer labs for the installation of the computer system, and staff development, including allocation of materials and staff training. After successful planning, the project manager, with the assistance of the project team members will identify potential risks that might affect the project. Some of the potential challenges that might jeopardize the implementation of this project include inadequate funds, inability to online and legal policies, and staff resistance. After the approval from the board to continue, the installation of the computer network in the school will commence. The process will begin with the installation of 25 networked computers in the school computer lab and followed by the other four computers in each classroom. The next step involves the training of teachers, students, and administrative staff responsible for handling the computers. Once the staff development activity has been completed, the team will configure software, test the computer system, and launch the project. Budget Narrative The budget of the grant proposal is $20,000. The funds will be allocated to key deliverables in curricular technology
  • 9. integration. For instance, the school will use $10,000 from the funds to purchase 29 computer hardware that will be installed in classrooms and the computer lab. Four networked computers will be installed in each classroom, while the other 25 networked computers will be installed in the lab. Fifty percent of the budget is allocated to computer hardware purchases because they are costly. On the other hand, computer software is allocated $4,500, $1,500 for technical support, $3,000 for technical support, while other expenses such as maintenance and scheduling are allocated $1,000. The program is scheduled to be completed within six months. Staff development, which includes training, will be done in- person after school. According to Roblyer & Doering (2012), a learner must have hands-on technology to learn technology integration skills efficiently. Therefore, online training which involves watching demonstrations, will not be sufficient to achieve adequate staff development goals. References ED. (2014). Programs: Enhancing Education through

Assignment #1: The Plan By Amanda Murray CRT 162 Sample State University Summer 2 2020 July 10, 2020 Introduction This is a presentation to integrate new computers and online programs in the Melvin H. Kreps Middle School. These additional resources are going to be used to help the 8th grade math students that are in the standard math course for 8th grade. These students have failed to perform well on state testing these past few years. According to the 2018-2019 NJ School
  • 19. Performance Report, only 13% of students in the 8th grade met expectations on the state test in math. The types of computers that will be installed into the school will be four network computers, a computer lab with 25 network computers, and a portable wireless lab with 25 laptops. These new computers will give the 8th grade math students access to online programs that will help enhance their math skills. Some of these online resources will include Google Applications for Education and other free online website that will make learning more engaging for students. We would like to purchase an online resource that will help students to fill learning gaps with math content that is not grade level. The program that can help use to do this is iReady. iReady is an online program that is individualized for each student based on their learning needs in math. Student take a diagnostic assessment that determines what grade level students fall under in four different math domains: algebra, geometry, number sense, and measurement and data. Then students will work on individualized lesson that are about 20 to 45 minutes to help them to relearn certain skills. iReady will be used as supplemental instruction to the grade level content taught in the classroom. Technology Solution with High Relative Advantages This program will have many advantages to helping students to increase their math potential in the classroom and on state testing. iReady is individualized for every student and give

These lessons have introduction tutorials that have colorful graphic and explain the lessons using kid friendly terms. These tutorials are much more interesting than watching a YouTube video with someone explaining the skill. At the end of each lesson the students take a five to seven question quiz where they will be assessed on the skills that the tutorial just walked them through. Students receive their quiz score right away so that they can receive immediate feedback. If a student fails the quiz they will have to do the lesson again; they have three attempts to pass a lesson. The teacher will provide one on one intervention to students that have failed a lesson three times in a row. Teachers can track student progress on their lessons through the reporting feature in iReady. The lessons also incorporate the use of this skill in everyday life. I feel that it is important to include this in math so students see the relevance of what they are learning. The questions that students are asking are more than just “skill and drill” type questions. Students will be asked to solve problems using problem solving strategies. It is important that the teacher lets students know that they need to use a pencil and paper when using iReady to work out the problems. The teacher will model how to complete a lesson with the class to show students how to use the scrap paper and pencil effectively.
  • 21. The installation of new computers into the middle school will help to successfully implement iReady to the 8th grade math students. Students also have access to the Google Applications for Education. Google provides many different applications to use the classroom to make learning more engaging while teaching students 21st century skills. The next section I will explain how iReady will be used in the classroom with the use of the new technology being installed into the building. Implementation of iReady using the Technology Integration Planning Model This program will be used to reinforce the material that students will be learning in the classroom. Students will take three diagnostics a year to assess their mathematical knowledge in order to provide them with lessons. Each students will get their own set of lessons after they take each diagnostic. These lesson are based on the New Jersey Student Learning Standards. Lower students will relearn old content that will help them to better understand grade level content. Students that are on grade level will use iReady to reinforce what they are learning in the classroom. Higher students will use iReady to learn new content that has not yet been covered in the classroom. This program automatically differentiates the lessons for students so that the teacher doesn’t have to. If I student does not pass a lesson after three attempts it will lock the domain that the lesson comes from. The teacher will have to monitor student progress to see if
  • 22. any domains have been locked because those students will be required to have teacher intervention. The next few paragraphs will cover the three phases of integrating iReady into the 8th grade math class. In phase 1, teachers will collect data and understand the needs of their students. In phase 2, teachers will follow through with what was collected in phase 1 to implement the program to students. In phase 3, teachers will analyze the progress that students are making in iReady to see if any intervention needs to be given to students. During Phase 1 of implementing iReady, the teachers will determine how to use iReady for students in their classroom. The diagnostic testing will allow teachers to collect base line data on students’ mathematical ability. Students will take the first diagnostic in the beginning of the year, the second one in the middle of the year, and the third one at the end of the year. The goal is for students to grow in between each diagnostic to get them closer to grade level in order to perform better on state testing. Teachers will be able to track student progress on iReady using the reports from the three diagnostics. During Phase 2 of implementing iReady, the teachers will analyze the data from the diagnostics to make a plan for integrating the lessons into the classroom. iReady will be a supplemental program in additional to the content that they are learning in the classroom. It is recommended by iReady that
  • 23. students complete about 45 minutes a week in order to grow two grade levels from the first diagnostic to the third diagnostic. When implementing this program the school will utilize the new computers that are being added to the middle school. Each teacher will schedule the computer lab with 25 computers for a class period every other week to work on iReady. This will allow for students to get about 45 minutes to work only on iReady with teachers support. Scheduling it every other week will allow for all classes to be able to use the computer lab. Teachers will also sign up to use the computer cart for a minimum of once a week to use the computer for small group time. Students will have time to log onto iReady and work on other engaging online activities during small group time. Some of these online activities could be an assignment in Google Classroom using Google Forms, Google Docs, or Google Slides Students will log about 20 to 60 minutes of iReady time during the school week. Students will also be required to complete 30 minutes of iReady throughout the week for homework. The planning for phase 2 will be easy for the teacher when accommodating the needs of diverse learners since iReady is already individualized. It will help the special education students to work on lower level skills. These students may never be on grade level after using iReady, but you should see growth of about two grade levels if implemented correctly. English Language Learners can also benefit from the use of iReady.
  • 24. According to English Learners and All Student Comparisons from the ESSA Level 3 2017–2018 Study, students that receive iReady along with their regular class instruction will grow 44% more in math compared to ELL students that do not use iReady. The classroom with four network computers will be used as a computer lab for students with specific learning needs. These classes are usually small so the teacher will be able to have four students working independently on iReady while working with another small groups of students. The reporting that is done in iReady will help with the analyzing and reviewing of lesson that is done in phase 3. Teachers should check student progress biweekly to see how students are progressing through the lesson. If a student fails a lesson three times it locks that domain and the teachers is to provide intervention for that student on that topic. This intervention is to be provided during computer lab time. After the intervention is delivered the teacher will reopen the domain for students to work on lesson again. After the second diagnostic is given teachers will analyze students grow to see if students are benefiti ng from time spent on iReady. Teachers can use this information to determine if the use of iReady in the classroom is effective and make any changes if needed. Some of the changes that teachers will look into are time on iReady in the classroom and at home, teacher support during iReady, and performance in the classroom. We
  • 25. won’t be able to analyze the full effects of iReady until we receive the data from the state test after the use of iReady. The hope is that if iReady implemented correctly then students should show growth from last year. As a reminder, last year only 13% of 8th grade math students were proficient on the state test. Cost of Google Applications for Education & iReady All of the students will be given their own emails and logins for the Google Applications for Education. Students will be able to use the Google Applications for email, word processing, presentations, video chats, and use Google Classroom to connect with the teacher and other students. We are choosing to use these applications with students because this product is free. The cost for the iReady program is $30 per student per year. This price includes the use of the iReady diagnostics and iReady instruction program. There are 230 students in standard 8th grade math, so the cost for them to use iReady is $6,900 for the year. There is also an additional cost of $2,500 to $3,500 for professional development training for teachers on how to implement the program effectively in their classroom. Students and teachers are able to access iReady using their online platform so there is no program that needs to be downloaded onto the new computers in the school. The benefits of the purchase of this product is the ability to fill in learning gaps of 8th grade math students and increase state test scores. If the 8th
  • 26. grade student benefit from this product then we can push out this product to rest of the middle school students to help address their learning gaps as soon as possible. Scheduling and Technology Set Up Teachers will share the use of the new computers by scheduling time to work with them. Teachers will be able to sign out the use of the computer lab once every other week for a period and the use of the laptop cart once a week. There are six 8th grade math teachers, so teachers will be able to sign up for computer time with ease. There should even be opportunity for teachers to sign up to use the computer more than what was recommended. The special education & ESL teachers will also be involved in using the laptop cart. They will be able to share the computer lab with four computer among themselves. The technology department will install the computers in the computer lab over the summer and also set up the laptops in the computer cart. The technology department will also set up log in for the students. They will need log in information for the computers, Google Apps, and for iReady. Each students will be given their own unique log in and password to the ensure security of students information and files. The login for all of these different programs will be the same. The login will be the students email with their ID numbers and their passwords will be their birthdays. The teachers will also have access to student log in information in case a student forgets. The technology
  • 27. department will be available to help with computer repairs and technology issues throughout the school year. All of this can be done remotely by the technology unless there is physical damage done to a device then it must be repaired. All computers will have Google Chrome installed as the main browser because the Google Applications work the best on Google Chrome. Google Chrome also allows students to download other free extensions to the browser to help enhance their learning. An example of some of these programs are Screencastify, Equatio, and Grammerly. The two computer labs with network computers will be hard wired for their internet access. The technology will install Wi - Fi hotspots into each classroom to allow students to have a strong internet connection when using the computers. In the past we have had hotspots installed in the hallways for classes to share the connection, but many teachers have complained about connect during class. Installing individual hotspots in each classroom should help teachers with these internet connection problems in the classroom. Conclusion The main purpose of implementing all of this new technology is to help to increase students learning in math and to improve state test scores. After these programs have successfully been implemented to the 8th grade math students we hope to show improvement on the state testing. If tremendous growth is
