"I definitely think that each school that serious implements technology or has an inordinate amount of technology will eventually need a discrete IT department essentially." I would love for our folks to have open internet access, but the irresponsible teachers will do catastrophic damage to our program. I need to take slow steps toward open access. A few bad things and our community would shut my web 2.0 initiative down. I am slowly educating our community, board, faculty, staff and students in the hopes that we can one day have very minimal internet filtering. With CIPA we will always have some. I appreciate your comments, Shawn Can you elaborate more on this? “I definitely think that each school that serious implements technology or has an inordinate amount of technology will eventually need a discrete IT department essentially.”
