__**Faculty Growth Plan**__ __**FCIS Technology Integration Standards:**__

6.1.5 The school has a set of minimum competencies for use and integration of technology for faculty and provides for professional growth opportunities for teachers to remain current in technology skills and applications.

6.1.6 A plan is in place for the integration of information technology skills across the curriculum and evidence of their use in educational programs.

__**Technology Integration Standards Rubric - Self Assessment**__

__** Goals of this assessment: **__ Step 1: Teachers start taking risks and developing comfort with authentically planning with technology and being innovative with curriculum.

Step 2: Teachers are held accountable for innovative ideas and authentically using technology skills and development in their classroom. Technology being used is authentic and provides the students with engaging activities based on their curriculum.

Step 3: Teachers will seamlessly use technology integrated into their curriculum and be participating in larger global technology initiatives and goals. The teachers are not afraid to take risks and they think of technology as a piece of their lesson planning.
