Addressing Key New Economy Issues Shortage of IT Capable K-12 Teachers Prepared by Arizona Learning Technology Partnership Ted Kraver, Chairman 602-944-8557 tkraver@qwest.net THE ISSUE The New Economy is highly dependent on a well educated and technology-effective workforce. Arizona ranks 12 th in college attainment of our workforce but 40 th or lower in K-12 education measures such as test scores, school funding and graduation rates. Importing talent will eventually run out of steam as other regions transform to the New Economy. Fortunately there is a direct and effective solution. Arizona must strongly implement its K-12 Academic Standards. Testing and advocacy address only part of this opportunity. For success there must be a strong implementation driver in the classroom. Over 15 years of research and testing show that full adoption of the technology-effective classroom is a cost effective solution. Not only will graduation rates increase and students develop the information technology skills needed for the New Economy, but a one letter grade improvement in academic performance can be expected. By providing technology-effective K-12 classrooms statewide Arizona will remain a strong player in the New Economy. Technology effective classrooms include: one modern, networked computer with Internet for every four to six students;

A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n Model Strategies in Bilingual Education: Professional Development - 1995 Descubriendo La Lectura Tucson Unified School District and the University of Arizona Tucson, Arizona Goals and Context Tucson Unified School District (TUSD) serves approximately 60,000 students, of whom about 40 percent are Hispanic. The district has adopted a policy of home-language maintenance to ensure the academic success of students who have limited English proficiency while building a strong foundation for learning English. This district policy provides a welcoming environment for a new program developed by the TUSD Title I staff called Descubriendo La Lectura (DLL). DLL is a Spanish-language reconstruction of the Reading Recovery (RR) program, which has a well-documented record of supporting the early success of at-risk beginning readers in English. DLL was developed to provide strong support for early Spanish literacy by using the same proven enrichment strategy with Spanish speakers that was being used with English speakers. TUSD Title I staff became interested in a Spanish version of RR because one of their goals was to support children who were having difficulty learning to read, and many in their district learned to read first in Spanish. Title I specialists felt that Reading Recovery's premise that the most powerful teaching builds on children's competencies was consistent with the district's policy of using a student's primary language for initial literacy instruction. TUSD hired a Teacher Leader trained at the Reading Recovery center at The Ohio State University to begin training local bilingual teachers in the basic approach. These teachers then became part of a team that created
