joins Middletown's Board of Education Technology Committee.
(PRWeb) November 20, 2006 -- Christine King has been with
Network-IT for over a year now and has recently joined the
Middletown Board of Education Technology Committee. With a
daughter in the Middletown school system and an interest in
technology, Chris is looking forward to working with the
committee and implementing the Technology Committee's plan.
The goal of the Educational Technology department in the
Middletown Public Schools is to enrich the classroom by
empowering teachers to infuse technologies that will enhance
instruction. As a matter of necessity, each student in
Middletown must be prepared to meet the technological challenges
of our contemporary society.
The Technology Committee aims to provide the best possible
education for Middletown students and seamlessly infuse
technology at all grade levels. To accomplish this, the
committee works diligently to implement professional development
for staff, ensure that students receive both direct and indirect
instruction in the use of computer technology and assess the
skill level of student technology use.
The state of Connecticut requires that each school prepare its
students to function in our technology-rich society, and as a
result of the Technology Committee, the Middletown Public School
system is ready to meet that challenge. The committee is
responsible for bringing computers and the Internet into the
classrooms, has introduced the use of smartboards in classes,
has educated teachers on how to create an online classroom and
has created virtual classes.
Network-IT provides network design, support and proactive
monitoring for Connecticut businesses.
