2. District Administrative Workspace Connectivity

District Administrative Workspaces are defined as the workspaces of those who provide district-wide administrative functions - for example, the Superintendent, Superintendent's Secretary, Business Manager, etc. (Do not include School Administrative Workspaces, such as School Principal in this form. They will be entered on the Individual School Profiles.) Count each workspace individually even if it exists in a room with several other workspaces. A workspace is defined as the working environment for a single individual.

If a workspace provides both district and school administrative functions, record the connectivity and inventory information in either the school or district profile form, but not in both. Workspaces, computers and connections should not be double counted.

3. Computer Workstation Inventory

(For district-level administration only) When categorizing computers, keep in mind that a computer must meet all of the specifications listed in a column in order to be counted in that column. When in doubt, choose categories that most closely match your processor's RAM. Count only computers that were in place in your district from July 1, 2005 to June 30, 2006.

NOTE: These new computer specifications will be in place for three years (from 2004 to 2007). In its annual technology report, the Department will list district data for Type A & B computers combined.
