contents Applications of Technology in Rural School Facilities. Jensen, Dennis Curriculum Development Distance Education Educational Improvement Educational Technology Elementary Secondary Education Public Schools Rural Schools School Community Relationship Technology Integration Rural schools often have difficulty in developing and implementing a 21st century, K-12 technology plan. This report describes one rural school district's (Wayne, Nebraska) successful efforts at technology integration. It discusses the efforts of installing 25 networked computers in the local high school, linking buildings with fiber-optic cables, automating the middle school library, and creating a distance education program by upgrading software and hardware to link the schools to the community via the Internet. The report reveals that rural schools can succeed in integrating technology into the curriculum, but it takes a united effort combined with the rural districts' willingness to seek help from regional and state agencies.
