2. Overview • Housekeeping • Assignment 2 YouTube • Emerging Technology Trends – Supporting users with technology • Technology Planning and Budgeting • Next Week

3. Housekeeping • How did Assignment 2 go? • Assignment 2 YouTube • Record Video Introduction and Conclusion • Narrate PowerPoint presenting major findings using the outline • Good presenting is sharing what you have learned with us • Let’s demonstrate • This is what it looks like (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JDq4k3vJds&feature=youtu.be) • NC Student Library Ambassador Program • My Technology Leadership Experience (article)

4. Aligning emerging technologies with user needs • User-centered Design – Inside Out Approach centered on TAM

5. Aligning emerging technologies with employee needs • Identify primary KSA’s (knowledge, skills, and abilities) • TPCK • Not just technology training • IN CONTEXT of Performance • This technology will help you do XYZ better • What technology? Technological Knowledge • What content and context? Content Knowledge • How to best do it? Pedagogy Knowledge

10. Instructional Technology Standards • Nets-C Standards • NCATE Standards • NC Professional Technology Facilitator Standards

11. Technology Management • Planning and Budgeting • Technology Heuristics (rules of thumb): • Technology costs more now than later • Technology must be maintained and replaced • Technology should be allocated across the board and not based on position or value. It must be equitable • Technology must meet the EES (Effective, Efficient, and Satisfying) and TAM (useful and easy-to-use) criterion. • Technology must be quality first, scalable second, and generalized third • More is usually more when paying for technology • Standard shelf-life for hardware is three years, software is two years

12. Technology Management • Remember networked systems – network, hardware, and software • Implement technology change slowly, deliberately, and strategically • REMEMBER TAM – employee buy-in and usefulness essential.

13. Technology Management • Budgeting • Line-item – based on what you have spent in the past • Zero-sum – based on what you need • Let’s look at an example

14. Next Week • View and respond to at least two additional presentations • Technology skills overview and assessment
