General Information
I work at the Morse School, as well as the district level, as a member of the ICTS and Educational Technology departments. See below for the mission or vision statements for all groups.
We are one heart, we are one hand, we are the children and people of many different lands. We're a neighborhood filled with hope and pride, a belief in walking side by side.
The Information, Communication, Technology Services (ICTS) department is a collaboration among Library Media, Educational Technology, Media Arts, Web Services and Technical Services divisions. This department strives to support administration and teachers; inform parents; and to prepare students for lifelong learning, informed decision-making, a love of reading, and the use of information and communication technologies.
The Educational Technology Department ensures that all students, teachers, administrators, and staff have access to and become proficient users of technology and that technology becomes a powerfully integrated and routinely used tool in the Cambridge Public Schools. It strives to make sure that these resources are used to enhance the delivery of instruction, to support all areas of the curriculum, and to support the educational needs of students, staff and community. The Educational Technology Department offers this support with skills-based and curriculum-integrated professional development opportunities, collaborative initiatives with other curriculum departments, and software and tools that are current and necessary for a 21st teaching and learning environment.
