Transition/Aftercare The National Center on Education , Disability and Juvenile Justice National Center on Education, Disability and Juvenile Justice Transition Planning and Services Transition refers to a coordinated, outcome-based set of aftercare services for youth with disabilities in the juvenile justice system. Transition services help youth achieve social adjustment, employment, and educational success once they leave the juvenile justice system. The ultimate goal of transition interventions is to promote successful re-integration of juveniles into the community. In order to provide appropriate educational and vocational services to adjudicated youth, it is imperative that assistance be available for service providers and youth during transition periods. Transition usually is the most ignored component of correctional education programs. Transition experiences and outcomes of juveniles with disabilities are often disheartening. Many juveniles released from correctional settings do not receive adequate vocational and educational training and other supports necessary to succeed in the community. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) holds promise for youth with disabilities leaving corrections because it requires their participation in transition services. Although transition planning and services should be identified as part of the Individualized Education Plan (IEP), many correctional and community agencies grapple with how to implement effectively, these requirements.

106. TSSA (Technology Standards For School Administrators) :: View Standards Rather, these standards are a national consensus among educational stakeholders FOR MORE INFORMATION For more information visit www.iste.org or contact http://cnets.iste.org/tssa/view_standards.html

Technology Standards for School Administrators TSSA Draft (v4.0) The Collaborative for Technology Standards for School Administrators (TSSA Collaborative) has facilitated the development of a national consensus on what P-12 administrators should know and be able to do to optimize the effective use of technology. This consensus is presented by the Collaborative (November 2001) as Technology Standards for School Administrators (TSSA). The Collaborative believes that comprehensive implementation of technology is, in itself, large-scale systemic reform. Leadership plays a key role in successful school reform. The CollaborativeÕs standards, therefore, focus on the role of leadership in enhancing learning and school operations through the use of technology. These standards are indicators of effective leadership for technology in schools. They define neither the minimum nor maximum level of knowledge and skills required of a leader, and are neither a comprehensive list nor a guaranteed recipe for effective technology leadership. Rather, these standards are a national consensus among educational stakeholders of what best indicates accomplished school leadership for comprehensive and effective use of technology in schools. The standards challenge almost every school administrator in some areas, yet each individual standard is attainable by the professional education leader. Although a national consensus, in no way should these standards inhibit new development, innovation, or progress for schools or for school leadership.
