The document discusses the need for technology integrationists (TIs) to support teachers in integrating technology into lessons at a school district. It states that the district currently has only one TI for 584 teachers, allowing just 3 hours of support per teacher per year. It recommends hiring at least 4 dedicated TIs, with 2 focused on grades 7-12 and 2 on grades K-6. One TI would coordinate the others and facilitate larger professional development sessions. The TIs would work with teachers based on requests, provide curriculum-specific blogs, and support teachers for an initial two-year period before reducing to two district-wide TIs.
