NSBA Ed Tech Site Visit

The Pascack Valley Regional High School District is a commuting suburb of New York City, located in the northeast corner of New Jersey. This is the seventh year of the district’s “1:1 eLearning Initiative” in which the district provides each student and teacher with a laptop. Your visit to the two high schools will focus primarily on how our district has successfully integrated technology into our high school curriculum, with an emphasis on web 2.0 collaborative tools. In addition, you will learn how our district included various stakeholders when developing our 1:1 initiative, pitfalls to avoid when providing every student with a laptop, how the district assesses the program, how technology supports the learning experience outside the classroom walls, and an overview of the ever-important investment in ongoing professional development.
