It’s very important that we first make sure the
tech is made available to ALL before we
implement.
Next we must set Expectations on how the
tech will be used, or else it will NOT be used at
all.
Next we make sure WE know how to use it.
Then we practice and network to add to our
toolbox and skill set.
