Technology Coach Form

We are in need of folks who can help teachers in the classroom with technical issues. Like how to remove spyware/adware/malware, how to clone their projector, how to determine if a maintenance request needs to be sent to the Tech Dept., how to trouble shoot technology tools issues, how to manage printers, etc.

The Tech Department has fielded over 2600 maintenance requests in the first semester of this year, many of which could have been taken care of with a little knowledge and care. We are, therefore, looking for folks in each hall or department who would like to train as a Tech Coach on technical issues for their campus. Maintenance Requests will be funneled through these coaches.

The duties of a Technology Coach:

1. Be a Life-Long Learner willing to attend at least 4 Workshops (after school 2 hours each or summer time) to learn how to Trouble Shoot:

  • PC issues

  • Printer Issues

  • Projector Issues & Technology Tools issues

  • How to minimize Maintenance Requests to the Technology Department

2. Be available to and willing to assist up to 6 teachers with technical issues. Each coach will be assigned 6 teachers to assist during the year.

3. Keep documentation of assistance and funnel all maintenance requests for your 6 teachers.

4. Be willing to gain on-going training as reflected by maintenance requests from your teachers.

The rewards will be:

  •  a certification in each technical area from the District,

  • 20 CPE credits,

  • Tech Dollars to spend in your classrooms (the amount will depend upon next year's budget--estimate of $400),

  • and a district laptop comparable to the following:
