Assessment to adopt e-learning
This is the instructions, and the first part is background about the organization.
For part 1 the organization is a high school in LAUSD, with the majority students African Americans, 3 small magnet schools
in one school setting with a total of around 1100 students. The school is not well funded, the students are bused in from
other neighborhoods that are considered low income and bad. The neighborhood where the school is, is in a nice predominately
white neighborhood where the residents don’t want the school there, so no local support.
The technology in the school is very
old and outdated, most machines are ready to be salvaged but since no funding is coming they are stuck with it. There is no
technical support on campus just one teacher for one period. Most high schools in LAUSD has at least one full time PC technician
at the campus but not this school. There will be no way to get any funding for new machines on campus and there will be no
support available. Students probably will not have access to libraries near there homes, and neighborhoods are to bad for students to visit these neighborhoods would be my guess.
