Annual Report, 1987-88. South Carolina Department of Education, Office of Instructional Technology.
South Carolina State Dept. of Education, Columbia. Office of Instructional Technology.
This report summarizes the activities of the Office of Instructional Technology in providing instructional technology to South Carolina schools. The office is responsible for the development, acquisition, scheduling, and utilization of television and radio resources for grades K-12, staff development, and adult education, which are broadcast over the South Carolina Educational Television and Radio Networks, and for the administration of computer-assisted instruction in the public schools. The staff participated in identifying 56 major objectives for the office's Annual Management Plan, and a calendar of activities was developed so that each staff member could review monthly progress. Primary activities for the year in computer-assisted instruction included revising computer software advisory listings, providing workshops, and conducting the fifth annual statewide computer survey. The staff of the Utilization Section conducted an annual utilization survey of interactive television (ITV) and radio in order to better manage delivery of consultant services, improve local reception, schedule resources over the network, and place radio and television sets where they are most needed. In addition, a diversified program of staff development offerings was broadcast daily, consisting of 43 ITV and radio series and 99 single-program specials, and 13 teleconferences were held during the year. A statewide survey of computer use in schools and districts was undertaken, and the results are compared with those of previous surveys. The text is supplemented by various tables, charts, and diagrams. (EW)
