Learn more about our Digital Practice Assessment (DPA) below:

Digital Practice Assessment (rubrics) - The Digital Practice Assessment creates the context for our work with each school/district, providing authentic baseline data to support our personalized approach. It begins by examining the strategies in place to support student learning in the areas of rigor, relevance and engagement, then moves to understand the preparedness of each school to successfully implement technology across the areas aligned to the 7 Pillars of Digital Leadership.

Through the use of school and classroom observation rubrics, on site data is collected.
The assessment data is then analyzed leading to a summary report that describes the current state of the school.
From this data, a recommended implementation plan will be shared with school and district leadership.
Through a partnership process, ICLE will create an implementation plan for each school that will be finalized during the Strategic Planning process.

Digital Leadership: Dynamic combination of mindset, behaviors, and skills that are employed to change and/or enhance school culture through the assistance of technology. Establishing direction, influencing others, and initiating sustainable change through the access to information to establish relationships in order to anticipate changes pivotal to school success in the future.

The Pillars of Digital Leadership

Student engagement, learning, and outcomes - create learning culture where students use real-world tools to do real-world work; allow them to create artifacts of learning to demonstrate conceptual mastery. Focus on pedagogy first, technology second when appropriate.

Flexible spaces need to lead to flexible learning

Blended instruction is what the teacher does with tech. Blended learning is where students use tech to have control over path, place, and pace.
