Technology alone cannot enhance the learning taking place within a classroom; it takes strategic planning from a content, pedagogical, and technological standpoint. In Coachella Valley Unified School District, we recently completed an iPad initiative that served over 1,000 staff members and over 21,000 students. In order to prepare teachers and administrators for the Common Core State Standards, our Educational Technology Department developed a 5 part workshop that progresses teachers and administrators through the SAMR Model. Upon successful completion of the program, staff members gain the title of SAMR Advanced Instructors. In addition to Dr. Puentedura’s SAMR Model, the workshops also highlight the TPACK framework to train staff members about the importance of using technology in conjunction with rigorous content knowledge and engaging pedagogical practices. The SAMRai workshops also include Webb’s Depth of Knowledge, which will prepare participants to equip students for the cognitive challenges necessary for the 21st Century.

From California to Maine, educators have acknowledged that mobile devices provided to all students and teachers afford users a dynamic, relevant, and individualized learning opportunity. Despite this fact, few have discussed the real world nuts and bolts process necessary to implement a district wide 1:1 mobile learning initiative from the ground up. This fast paced workshop will provide an overview of the Coachella Valley Unified School District’s 1:1 Mobile Learning Initiative and Measure X Bond, a voter approved bond used solely to purchase 18,000 iPads and and fund the infrastructure improvements necessary to implement a district-wide 1 to 1 mobile learning initiative.
