The Technology Coordinator's Handbook

The technology coordinator can be seen as the orchestrator in the school or district, able to balance technology policies and procedures with device-specific requirements, locate funding and support and facilitate ongoing training and support. In a time when technology is constantly changing, the technology coordinator adapts and stays abreast of the latest developments. Authors Max Frazier and Doug Hearrington expand the scope of this practical guide to include: new processes for technical support and technology lifecycle management, updated information about Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) programs, practical advice on the implementation of cloud computing services, and updated profiles and job descriptions of technology coordinators and district leaders.

Max Frazier has more than 35 years of experience working in schools. He has served as a middle school teacher, university instructor, educational technology specialist, and technology coordinator. He received a doctorate in educational administration and leadership at Kansas State University and is currently an associate professor in the School of Education at Newman University in Wichita.
