OUR GOAL TODAYHelp participants gain the necessary skills and
understanding to properly develop and implement an
effective evaluation program for a 1:1 program.
Education is the only business still debating the usefulness of technology. Schools remain unchanged for the most part, despite numerous reforms and increased investments in computers and networks.
• U.S. Secretary of Education Rod Paige, quoted in National Educational Technology Plan, 2004

INTRODUCTIONSPlease Share
Name School/Organization and your role Current 1:1 Situation Primary reason for attending todayAny specific questions you have

IT Program Evaluation: Following the Correct Steps
Determine project goals & objectives to be measured ~ Key Performance Indicators
Determine criteria (or norms) to measure success
Determine measurement period(s)
Determine who will collect the data and how it will be collected
Conduct an analysis of the data & present your results
WHAT TYPE(S) OF PROGRAM EVALUATION SUITS YOUR NEEDS?
