 * What are the //“necessary conditions to effectively leverage technology”// for arts learning through educational technologies embedded in pedagogical practice?
 * How do proactive leaders develop, a shared vision for arts content, educational technology and pedagogical practice //“among all education stakeholders including teachers and support staff, school and district administrators, teacher, educators, students, parents, and the community?”//
 * How do //“// // stakeholders at every level empowered to be leaders in effecting change” // impact arts content, educational technology and pedagogical practice?
 * How does a //“systemic plan aligned with// // a shared vision for school effectiveness and student learning through the infusion of information and communication technologies (ICT) and digital learning resources” // impact arts content and pedagogical practice?
 * How does //“// // ongoing funding to support technology infrastructure, personnel, digital resources, and staff development” // impact the delivery of arts content and pedagogical practice?
 * How does //“robust and// // reliable access to current and emerging technologies and digital resources, with connectivity for all students, teachers, staff, and school leaders” // relate to arts education?
 * How are //“educators, support staff, and other leaders skilled in the selection and effective use of appropriate ICT resources”// related to the arts?
 * How do //“technology-related professional learning plans and opportunities with dedicated time to practice and share ideas”// relate to the technology, pedagogy and the arts?

 * How does arts learning relate to //“continuous assessment, both of learning and for learning, and evaluation of the use of ICT and digital resources?”//
 * How is arts learning impacted by //“partnerships and collaboration within communities”// in supporting and funding //“the use of ICT and digital learning resources?”//
 * How are arts in conjunction with technology considered in conjunction with //“policies, financial plans, accountability measures, and incentive structures to support the use of ICT and other digital resources for learning and in district school operations?”//
 * How are the arts embedded in //“policies and initiatives at the national, regional, and local levels to support schools and teacher preparation programs in the effective implementation of technology for achieving curriculum and learning technology (ICT) standards?”//
