Project Goals and Outcomes

The goal of the CLOUDS project was to create a model technology staff development program that enabled teachers to independently use internet research, electronic communication, spreadsheets, databases, and multimedia presentations for their own productivity and the learning experiences of their students.  A pre and post self ranking rubric was used to document attainment of individual objectives.  A survey regarding program effectiveness was used to determine viability of the project as a "model staff development program". Below is a table listing the project goals and outcomes.
