MODIFIED LEVEL 3
for
ADMINISTRATORS & NON-CLASSROOM PROFESSIONALS

Level 3 for administrators and non-teaching professionals has been modified to better suit administrative tasks. There are no required lesson plans. However, there are two software tools to learn. Tech Talk 3A has been revised to help administrators learn to look at the process of integrated technology projects.
Note to Counselors: As you look at this, consider parents, students, and community organizations with whom you work.

AWARDS FOR MODIFIED LEVEL 3 WILL BE SIMILAR TO LEVEL 2 AWARDS.
Cameras and scanners are awards for ONLY those people who do the integration portion of Level 3
Recipients of Modifed Level 3 cannot apply for a Level 4 laptop.

About Level 3:
As you enter this level of technology expertise, expectations are higher. You will be working with students on integration projects in these exercises. When you submit files, they should be aligned to the TEKS for technology for your curriculum. Some links to help discern those TEKS are:

TECET's TA TEKS by Cluster and the TEA standards for educators.
