Big
Themes
| Need
more tech support in each building. (What is there is great,
just not sufficient for the task) |
Addressed
in Strategic Planning Process |
| Need
more time to support teachers in just-in-time training, support
and co-teaching. This year much more of this can be done by
Joyce and Craig since there is no release time for elementary
ITLTs. |
Adopt-A-Teacher
Program |
| PLE
is starting from the beginning again. Last year, K-2 was not
part of the target group. Also, the needs of the littlest folks
seem to be more different from the others than any other group.
(My bias???) |
|
| Creating
and/or maintaining the school webpages is currently a mystery
to all! |
Experience
and changes in policy |
| Do
we or should we have a long-term staff development plan? Do
we have articulated expectations for what good instructional
technology practice will look like? |
|
Action
items
| All |
More
collaboration via the list. Ask questions or tell folks when
you are working on a new project or topic. |
| Joyce
and Craig |
Send
the agitlt list a list of what kinds of tasks you could be
doing in the schools. What are the strengths they should be
building on? What kind of explicit instruction do you need
from the ITLTs? |
| Olivia |
Need
clarification on time commitment to web maintenance. Is it 3
hrs/wk or 3 hrs/mo above the ITLT time? Is there any additional
startup time? |
| Pat |
Add
1/2 hour DreamWeaver Q&A to each month's meeting |
| PLE
ITLTs |
Post
schedules and what you'll be specializing so teachers know what
they can expect. |
| AGIS
ITLTs |
Create
schedule for CyberCafes and TechNews additions to Newsletter
to draw on each person's expertise and organize the load |
| Joyce |
November
meeting -- discuss results of enGauge survey |
Items
for later discussion and action
| Tech
Support |
Help
district figure out a way to get more time for tech support.
Is there a way the ITLTs can help address budget issues? Is
there a way to restructure things to make better use of tech
time?
Should
this be the topic of an entire later meeting? |
| ITLT
discussion and action |
How
can we motivate ALL teachers to use technology?
- Karen
mentioned the new teacher evaluation and observation forms
- How
can we help principals encourage teachers?
- How
can the extended use of email, especially for admin use,
support the larger goal?
|
| Middle
School and Tech Staff |
Is
the amount and arrangement of technology this year better suited
to needs of teachers and students? (Probably should check in
early December) |
