Extractions: Chapter 9 - Resources Finding the resources to finance, maintain, and upgrade equipment, and to provide teacher training and technical support is universally one of the biggest hurdles that schools face when it comes to technology implementation. For many, the funds are simply unavailable via the conventional means of local tax-based school financing. Despite this fact, we found schools and districts in some of the most disadvantaged areas of the nation that have somehow managed to establish exemplary technology programs. How did they do it? As an additional component of this chapter, we provide some information on the use of various information resources available through the Federal government. Not only is money essential for acquiring technology but so is good information about the availability of Federal programs and information sources. Questionnaire Data: Awareness, Use and Helpfulness of Resources In this area, we identified a list of nine very general approaches to expanding the resource base available to schools involved in implementing technology. It included various sources of resources (e.g., private versus public), various types of resources (e.g., money versus in-kind), and different types of relationships with the resource providers.

Extractions: All Departments By KENT FISCHER LAND O'LAKES There are days, Cindy Roan says, when she feels like retiring her Parent Teacher Association name badge. As when she hosts a countywide PTA meeting and four people show up. Or like this spring when for the third consecutive year she was named president of the countywide PTA council because nobody else wanted the job. "I considered just getting rid of the council because nobody was using us," Roan said. "I thought, why even bother? Nobody even acknowledges that we exist." Instead of folding, however, Roan decided to go on the offensive. She went before the School Board and has talked to reporters in an attempt to spread the word about Pasco's dreary PTA membership. Fewer than half of the district's 53 schools have a PTA. Countywide, membership stands at 4,921, down about 600 from two years ago, mostly because three schools have recently disbanded their groups.
