How School Administrators’ Roles Change in the Digital Age

Jane Stavem, associate superintendent for instruction at Lincoln Public Schools (NE), discusses her district’s strategic planning to set out to design a comprehensive technology plan and digital conversion for the district.

“There’s a collective energy of innovation in this group. We represent districts of differing sizes, socio-economic backgrounds, and geography, but our individual paths all converge around one single purpose—accelerating innovation through technology for all students, everywhere.

This collaboration has a big impact in Lincoln. What started as an uncertain challenge is now a comprehensive, 10-year technology plan that is supported by our board and our community. It is far better than it would have been had we developed it in isolation, and it reflects the work of many districts who were willing to share their expertise, successes, and failures.”
