This is how I believe the successful accomplishment of my goals will lead to improved educator/student learning.

Successful technology integration into the curriculum will engage the student learner and increase student achievement. The teacher will become more comfortable with their use of technology and this will increase their confidence level and lead to increased use of technology in the future to enhance learning. Meeting the needs of diverse learners will create a better atmosphere for learning and will lead to success for all students.

This is how I plan to evaluate my progress toward reaching my goals. (checkpoints, indicators of success, etc.)

Mentor Goal #1: Data gathered shows that the mentor is providing reflective questions that will lead to technology integration that is appropriate for the learning environment. Questions will assess the needs of both the teacher and the students.

Success: High levels of cognitive mentee input per data gathered.

Mentor Goal #2: Data gathered shows that the mentor is collaborating with the mentee regarding classroom management, diverse learners and instructional design. Success: Classroom management skills of the mentee have resulted in less referrals or disturbances in the classroom. Attention to the needs of diverse learners has resulted in increase success in assessments. Assessments show that instructional design has created a positive impact in the classroom. The mentee will use the appropriate assessments to gauge student success. The mentor will meet with the teacher daily to check on the progress of the students and to get teacher input on the success of the lesson.

We agree to work together as a collaborative team to implement this plan.
