e-Learning Advisory Group meeting: March 23, 2010 9:00-11:00 am

A discussion was held on the district’s information provided in our e-Learning Advisory group WikiSpace and the courses each district stated they have low enrollment in.

Training teachers [Moodle, Adobe connect, etc.] o During school hours, after school, summer -Districts were interested in having trainings set-up for teachers: Moodle and Adobe Connect Lisa will set up a Moodle training during school hours and Adobe Connect training after school. Districts will encourage teachers to attend.

Introduction to Moodle: Developing an Online Community in Moodle 4/23, 8:30 – 3:30 pm Model Schools Lab
 * __Training dates:__**

Adobe Connect 4/26, 4:00 – 6:00 pm Model School Lab

How we can share classes: -Districts felt that it would be better to start off small, one district to another, rather than one district teaching to three other districts. -Sullivan West might be changing their bell schedule depending on if there are January Regents exams offered. They might be interested in working with another district. -Monticello and Eldred will work together to see what courses / seat exchanges they can share and email or call Lisa. -Liberty and Tri-Valley will work together to see what courses they might be able to share and email or call Lisa.

Next steps: It was decided not to meet on 4/15 as districts need more time after spring break to speak with principals, guidance, and teachers.

Next meeting: 5/11
