Extractions: Decision-Support System Helps Utah Improve Its Student Achievement Utah has a history of putting technology in place, and then using that technology to help its educators and students improve teaching and learning. The current case in point is how the Utah State Office of Education (USOE) is aligning itself with initiatives and programs designed to place the right data into the right hands in order to improve data-driven decision-making at all levels. Part of this process involves creating reports with data derived from SETDAs Profiling Educational Technology Integration (PETI) initiative into a statewide decision-support system. The PETI initiative includes three surveys and several site visit documents, including interview and focus group protocols. The result is providing a clearer understanding of the impact technology is having in Utah classrooms and where more assistance may be needed. Ed Tech Background Utah serves 486,938 K-12 public school students as well as 22,640 teachers and administrators throughout the state. It serves its 40 school districts and another 26 charter schools by developing the state core curriculum, licensing educators, and assisting with professional development.

Extractions: NTTI works to forge partnerships between each NTTI public television station and the educational leadership in its state and community. Many NTTI sites have created strong partnerships with regional colleges and universities that offer education programs. NTTI itself has established an affiliation with the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute so that NTTI teachers nationwide can receive graduate credit for their work. Managers at the NTTI sites also work closely with their state Departments of Higher Education and with local or state chapters of professional teacher organizations. WSIU/WSIU-TV is entering its sixth year of hosting the National Teacher Training Institute. During each of those years, WSIU staff worked with the College of Education at Southern Illinois University to develop and offer a two credit hour graduate course, Workshop on Education. The course requirements were developed by faculty in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction and the WSIU/WSIU-TV project staff. Blue Ridge Public Television partners with Virginia Community College. VCC has state-of-the-art computer labs and has served as an Institute host site for several years. Rather than graduate education credits, Virginia Community College offers a one-credit technology course. Teachers receive the 15 hours of training and submit an outline for a lesson they will later conduct in their classes. The cost is minimal, and the teachers' school districts accept this as a part of their technology training for professional development.

Extractions: October 2001 A new goal is challenging teachers: All students, with or without disabilities, including English language learners and students who are "falling between the cracks," are to achieve in the general education curriculum. For students with disabilities, access to the general education curriculum is mandated by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Amendments of 1997 (IDEA '97). Successful student access to the curriculum comes about through the implementation of validated programs and procedures. It calls for a paradigm shift that is required in the law: the student (if appropriate), special and general education teachers, parents, a district representative, and representatives of other agencies necessary to best serve the student's needs are required to take part in the student's educational planning, with improved learning in the general education curriculum as a goal. This digest discusses changes needed to bring about successful student access to the curriculum-changes in attitudes and belief systems, parent involvement, pre-service training, and ongoing professional development, as well as increased support from districts and state legislators. Within this background of support from a larger educational community, teachers must work together to apply well-founded, research-based instructional practices in their classrooms.
