The importance of Project Tomorrow's Speak 
Up 2016...next!

00:00:04,510 --> 00:00:09,990

00:00:09,990 --> 00:00:18,200
Project Tomorrow's Speak Up 2016 is a national 
effort to collect student, teacher, librarian, 
administrator, parent and community input 
on how technology can improve education.

4
00:00:18,210 --> 00:00:24,200
This annual project has reported on the views 
of more than 4.5 million participants, giving 
school districts...

5
00:00:24,210 --> 00:00:29,100
...an authentic, unfiltered view on education, 
technology, professional development as well.

6
00:00:29,110 --> 00:00:32,400
Last year, Klein ISD was the top participating 
school district...

7
00:00:32,410 --> 00:00:36,100
...and also the top performing district for 
both administrator and teacher participation.

8
00:00:36,110 --> 00:00:44,500
16 Klein ISD campuses also received the Speak 
Up Loud & Clear designation that's awarded 
to the top participating campuses across 
the country.

9
00:00:44,510 --> 00:00:49,400
The 2015 data from the survey showed us that 
students use YouTube to help them with their 
homework.

10
00:00:49,410 --> 00:00:52,500
86% of high schoolers have a mobile device...

11
00:00:52,510 --> 00:00:55,800
1 in 5 is very interested in learning how 
to code...

12
00:00:55,810 --> 00:00:58,100
...and students want access to mobile learning.

13
00:00:58,110 --> 00:01:04,300
Parents responding to the survey indicated 
strongly that the effective use of technology 
in school is important to student success.

14
00:01:04,310 --> 00:01:07,010
Teachers are using more digital content than 
ever before...

15
00:01:07,010 --> 00:01:11,990
...and believe using technology helps with 
differentiating instruction for students.

16
00:01:11,990 --> 00:01:17,010
Klein ISD uses the data derived from this 
study to help determine the course of digital 
instruction for our students.

17
00:01:17,010 --> 00:01:26,900
This year, we plan to use more of the provided 
data in our Community and Student Engagement 
report that measures school districts on 
8 areas not related to the standardized tests.

18
00:01:26,910 --> 00:01:31,000
The Speak Up 2016 survery is available through 
mid-January.

19
00:01:31,010 --> 00:01:34,800
Simply navigate to your school and enter 
Klein as the secret word.

20
00:01:34,810 --> 00:01:41,300
I encourage each of you to make your voice 
heard through this unique opportunity to 
impact national, state and local decision 
makers.

21
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,800
That's all for now...See you next week!

00:01:43,810 --> 00:01:45,200
