Description: By rethinking what we mean by technology leadership in our schools can we effectively change the landscape in order to harness this powerful new reality to improve teaching and learning? A better understanding that the role of a school CIO includes business partner, classic IT support provider, integrator, strategic thinker and educator, as well as a redefining of attributes and job description are some of the first steps schools can take to help navigate the world of technology 2.0.=====
