Welcome to the Consortium for School Networking (CoSN) Small District Technology Leadership wiki.
The Consortium for School Networking (CoSN) is the country's premier voice for K-12 education leaders who use technology strategically to improve teaching and learning. The objective of this wiki is to provide a space for collaborative work around topics regarding effective planning for and use and implementation of technology.
There are a variety of sources on this wiki. CoSN, in conjunction with a grant from SRI International and support from the National Technology Activities contract with the U.S. Department of Education, has created the Small District Technology Leadership wiki to support systematic planning at the local level for district- and school-based technologies. The objective of this project is to develop a set of resources that fits the needs of small school districts, those with student populations of 2,500 or less. The content may prove useful for any district but is particularly focused on the specific needs and challenges of small school districts.
