Timeline • 6 weeks prior: • Campus ITS send information to Coordinator. • Make schedule of classes • 1 month prior: • Send schedule and workshop planning document for each session to Curriculum Management Specialist to input information into system. They need to have information posted in system by 2 weeks prior.

  6. Timeline • 2 weeks prior: • Faculty meeting to inform teachers • Handout with schedules and description • Start signing up via Eduphoria. • Day before: • Campus ITS’s meet at school to hang signs (restroom, classroom) and set up rooms. • Print individual teacher schedules for the day • Reminder email to teachers

  9. Session Survey • Overall, how would you rate the training? • Excellent, Good, Fair, Poor • The materials distributed were pertinent and useful. • Excellent, Good, Fair, Poor • I will be able to apply the knowledge. • Yes, No • Do you have any feedback for this session’s trainer on the quality and style of instruction? • Open-ended response.

  10. Teacher Feedback Incredibly useful and valuable Helps me “keep up” with technology My classroom would be lacking if I hadn’t had the opportunity to attend the last two years. Hands-on, creative sessions Many of the best “tricks” come from other teachers who have worked through the “kinks” or have thought of other uses for it.

  11. What’s next? • Summer district wide technology day • Will include the Curriculum and Instruction Department and the Instructional Technology Department. • Might be an “Innovative Teaching” mini-conference instead of technology. • Maybe over two days.
