Before your technology plan can identify what new or additional technology
resources are needed to provide the desired learning environment for
students, you must first know what resources exist in your school
and how are they used.
To determine
your school's technology resources it is important for your team to
develop a complete inventory of the existing hardware and software
resources within your school.
