Topic: Technology & Educational Leadership
Abstract
Technology leadership is a school level characteristic. It is carried out by a team, that typically includes the principal, technology coordinator, and teacher leaders. Technology leadership is a significant predictor of teachers' use of IT (information technology) in the classroom. IT leadership should focus on creating effective learning environments for teachers so they may develop their technology-enhanced instructional skills. Such an environment would support individual and collective learning of the school's teachers and be learner-centered, knowledge-centered, assessment-centered, and community-centered.
