Evaluation Committee Composition Matrix

• You will need committee members who represent all aspects of your school community. This means teachers (from a variety of grades and/or subject areas), administrators, parents, community members (e.g., businesspeople), and perhaps students.
  
  
• Do not load your committee with figureheads who are not willing to actually work on the plan.
  
  
• The evaluation process contains many different tasks. You need writers, curriculum people, infrastructure people, people who are good with budgets, and policy people.
  
  
• The commitment to be a part of the technology-evaluation committee is not a short-term commitment. A formative evaluation by definition is ongoing and iterative. The committee members should be willing to assist in you school's technology-evaluation efforts long after the data are collected and reports are written.
