Memphis City Schools - Cyber School Overview

Cyber School - Overview

With the completion of the network infrastructure, all classrooms in Memphis City Schools have six network drops with necessary electrical connections and all libraries have ten network drops. To assist teachers in effectively using this technology, the Office of Instructional Technology has developed Cyber School Staff Development which is based on a similar program in Ohio. This program began with the 2001 school year on a first come, first serve basis. The program was well received in its initial year and is now a continuing effort from Instructional Technology.

During Cyber School a member from the Instructional Technology team spends a week at a school working with teachers, administrators and students to improve the use of technology in instruction and communication. Each school completes a pre-survey prior to the assigned week of training. The survey assists in planning the appropriate sessions needed at each school. During the week, teachers work to improve their skills individually and in small groups.

Cyber School is customized for each school according to faculty and school needs. The aim of this training is to improve the ability of teachers and administrators to embed technology into instruction to prepare our students for the advanced technological society of tomorrow.
