Using State Technology Funds each class in the Forsan ISD school district (K-12) had new teaching tools added. A 27" TV was hung by each teachers computer workstation. A graphics card was installed in the teachers computer allowing the teacher to show what is on their monitor to the classroom through the TV. Under each computer a VCR/DVD player was installed. The frames to hold this new equipment were built by the Forsan ISD maintenance staff. These additions will allow Forsan teachers new flexibilities in teaching. For example, teachers can now teach their lessons using Microsoft PowerPoint and the class will be able to view it easily. Then the teacher can take the same PowerPoint and post it on their web page so that the students and parents can access the same lesson from home through the internet. For the past six years Forsan teachers have been posting their weekly lesson plans on the Forsan ISD web page so that students and parents can check homework assignments at any time. These technology improvements are making it much easier for parents to be involved in their students education process.
