District CIO Distinguished Lecture Web Seminars

As technology has come to play a larger role in school districts, superintendents, business officials, curriculum directors and other senior district leaders are increasingly informing and influencing strategic decisions in how best to use technology across the district in both academic applications and district operations.

Because of that in October DA launched the first section of a topic we've covered for years, but not through formal identification: District CIO. In the pages of our magazine, on a monthly basis, District CIO covers issues of special interest to all senior district-level executives from a CIO perspective. Beginning in January, we'll extend District CIO online, with the District CIO enewsletters,and a series of Distinguished Lecture Web Seminars.

On Wednesday, January 25 at 2 PM EST join Web Seminar Editor J.D. Solomon and his guest Scott McLeod, Associate Professor of Educational Leadership at the University of Kentucky, for the first Web seminar in the quarterly series in an interactive discussion about educational technology and its place in K12 education. Mr. McLeod is the founding director of the UCEA Center for the Advanced Study of Technology Leadership in Education (CASTLE), the nation’s only academic center dedicated to the technology needs of school administrators.
