“Technology Coaching gets back to
the basics to focus on good
teaching strategies, instruction,
and technology to support both of
those. Technology coaches know
how to facilitate instructional
strategies in the classroom and
what kind of technology, if any helps
to make that strategy more
effective.”

consists of a lot of one-on-
one coaching with teachers,
as well as a lot of behind the

programs and all other
technologies that make the
school function.”
