How does it work?
|
|
The vivED Planning service begins with a high-level evaluation of the technology situation at the school. We will use data that exist from previous evaluations (if applicable.)
Based on our review of the school situation, vivED builds a comprehensive planning program. Part of this development includes the design and printing of participant materials and the creation and development of unique activities. The planning session content also includes custom research and analysis based on specific client needs.
If necessary, vivED will coordinate the planning session event (usually offsite within the district) and solicit participants. The school community chooses the time and location that best matches their schedules and needs.
vivED consultants will then facilitate the entire planning session. vivED will lead the participants (as many as the client chooses to invite - 20 max) through a professionally designed strategic planning process. With a typical session lasting 2 full days. The length and scope of the planning event is completely customizable.
vivED will document the work and outcomes of the session for use in continued technology conversations.

Frequently asked question: Would the Technology Plan we create satisfy State Requirements?
Answer: Each state has different requirements and processes for approving plan. Our planning guidelines are extremely detailed and we are confident that if completed, your plan would meet most state requirements. However, the actual writing of a technology plan may not occur during vivED's services, but the discussions and direction set during our service can be added to your document.
