Barriers to Success: IT Integration success depends on (thoughtfully ranked):
 * A clearly articulated, documented **mandate** for teacher expectations.
 * **Understanding** what IT integration is (and isn't) and how the Facilitator can be utilized to enhance the teaching and learning experience.
 * Ability to **flexibly** utilize technology tools and infrastructure to meet the needs of global 21st Century teaching strategies.
 * **Transparent** curriculum infrastructure (Rubicon Atlas - wiki) - clear, easy to access documentation for the entire school curriculum.
 * Clearly articulated Year at a Glance maps from teachers - the establishment of **static** units, building on experiences from past years (ie: it is essential that grade 6 Science conduct the Code Blue! project in 07/08).
 * Understanding that **collaboratively planned** unites with authentic learning experiences that embed the backward design process result in higher achievement of the S&Bs. **Flexibility** with the classroom dynamic and teaching is an essential component of 21st Century teaching and learning.
 * Creating, documenting and sharing **common** assessment practices.
 * **Sharing** successes with technology, both internally and through external visionaries on site (Warlick, Richardson) within structure Professional Development as based on a mandate.
 * **Common** planning time with IT Facilitator - grade level teams (framework requires grade level planning time)
 * **Classroom** technology support, particularly for mobile carts (charging, set-up)
 * Instructional **support** - specifically the addition of middle and high lab assistant to support integration (the teacher will not always be proficient)
 * **Revision** of curriculum map format to embed IT integration.
 * **Equitable** access to technology resources.
 * **Professional Development** to increase teacher comfort level with technology (as supported by the roles listed in our framework)
 * Purchase of peripherals and software to **enhance** the teaching and learning experience.

Teacher Toolkit: tailored toolkit of items which are specific to that individual (could be targeted PD schedule, assessment of skills, resources which can be accessed quickly in order to make professional decisions and judgments regarding integration). Developed during formal conversations with IT Facilitator.
