Henrico County Public Schools (HCPS) prides itself on its innovative approach to instruction. We believe in the power of designing high-quality learning environments and providing tools that support the development of key 21st century skills and providing information and training to all stakeholders in our digital environment. The Instructional Technology website was designed from 2013-15 to meet the needs of these stakeholders. The website is a place for students to access student laptop training and learn to use digital resources and computer applications. It is a resource for parents to access laptop training and get the information they need to help their children. Teachers use it as a one-stop shop to access resources for instruction, digital resources; and training materials. K-12 users access materials and training modules on digital citizenship and the many other digital resources HCPS provides. There is information about our technology conferences, Student 21, a site where students can proudly share their work, and Henrico 21, our annual celebration of technology and learning and a site where teachers access over 1,300 high-quality lessons. This newly redesigned website has become the one place for our users to have easy access to instructional technology resources. Instructional Technology website: http://blogs.henrico.k12.va.us/it
