A place to start
Give technology a clear job
Before adopting a tool, we recommend asking:
- What task will it improve for staff, youth, or families?
- What evidence will show that improvement?
- What information does it need, and who should have access?
- Who remains responsible for consequential decisions?
- How will an error be identified and corrected?
