Brandywine School District
Instructional Technology Leaders

Meeting April 9, 2001

Agenda
  1. DITC Conference feedback
    • Anne shared the site : http://www.techtrekers.com
    • Tina saw that every single good workshop was the product of collaboration with a full-time instructional technologist in the school and a full-time library/media specialist
    • Linda thought the best was the Intel Microscope
    • Mike Guzzo liked the Rehoboth Elem session on CD Portfolios and Claymont will be trying some version of this this spring
    • Mike Kunz liked Bigchalk.com

  2. End of year reports
    1. Question – How is technology use and integration different in your school at the end of this year because of the ITL program?  (Schoolwide and individual examples)
    2. Examples – electronic communication, use of productivity tools, enhanced lessons, improved skills, increased use,  shared planning, incorporation of electronic resources, etc. etc. etc.  No excuses and no bad news!
    3. Format – 3 PowerPoint slides  (later to be merged for a district-wide compilation)  We will add the transition slide for the school name so you need not fill up your slide with that.  Your slides should be formatted for presentation so if you need to supply background add speaker's notes (If you don’t know how to do it, ask in the listserv)
    4. No, there is nothing scheduled yet that we are presenting this to, but we want it ready … just in case.
