Technology Services

A message from Rob van Herk, Director, Technology Services:

The Technology Services division is responsible for planning, implementation, support, and maintenance of computer systems, data networks, software, business systems, student information systems, library systems, e-mail systems, intra and internet access and maintenance of the AUSD website. We review and approve all district requests for computer hardware and software purchases.

We are committed to providing technology solutions and state-of-the-art information services to the students and staff at our school sites. We provide instructional technology that enables our educators to integrate technology into curricula and instruction to create new learning and meaningful environments for our students.

The District uses many different data systems.

Tableau is a powerful visualization tool which includes the ability to use Mapping to display clusters of students, their demographics, and assessment. In order to use Maps, the addresses need to be geo-coded.

AUSD uses the free Texas A&M Geoservices to create latitude and longitude for each of our students' residence address.

AUSD has standards for most all technology equipment. It is important that all employees understand the options before submitting a purchase requisition.

Donated technology equipment may serve as a valuable addition to a school's technology infrastructure, but please keep in mind that there is a "hidden cost" in accepting donated computers. This includes increased time for service, cost of spare parts and other factors.
