Fellow LNA here. Glad to have you on board.
I know that you have a lot of wisdom concerning technology in DPS...at this time,what should the focus on to make this venture worth it?

I am not even sure where to start.....there are major infrastructure issues...we still have several schools that do not have reliable internet connections....and the equipment is old, and no budget for replacement. Also, what one school has, another may not. My first 4 months teaching computers, I had no computers in my room....
With these issues in mind, I think we need to look at ways to make the technology, Internet connected or not, work for us. Perhaps some best practices tips, lesson plan ideas, etc??

- Hi Karen,
Listen you might want to check out this really cool Flash program I found online via this link:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/typing/
This site is from the UK, and even has awesome accents that the children might get a kick out of :)
Let me know if this works...especially with the DPS red circle of death aka page not accessible

With your interest in Education Technology, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service. Here’s a public class recording you might find of interest.
