The purpose of this Wiki is to plan for further professional development at MHS. Our objective is to provide on-site and on-line training for our teachers to learn the new mandated programs, like ActivInspire, Eduphoria Forethought and Spotlight, and also other technology we feel needs to be integrated to our campus. These courses will be taught to all teachers on our campus, grades 9-12 inclusive, but will also be open to any middle school teacher in a feeder school. I will facilitate these programs, but will require volunteer presenters. These presenters will be awarded continuing education credits for their planning and presenting time.

Community members will include some laypersons, several teachers and a principal or two. Let's try to brainstorm some innovative ways to integrate technology into the classroom by getting teachers excited about new technology!!

Please click on //Discussion// above, and let me know some tentative dates and times for training, possible presenters, and what we would like to train on our campus.

We have a date for in-service on February 15 Questions: how much time will we have for tech training on that day? Do we have any money to bring in trainers?

I'll help with the training on ActivInspire! I know I have only had my board for a few months, but I really love it. I know most teachers don't use the activotes, so I can work up a presentation for that. How much time should I plan on? (Sharon)

We have several teachers in my department who have good lessons on ActivInspire that we can use for example lessons. Can I send them to you or Sharon, so we can get this training put together? I think we really need to concentrate on ActivBoard training on the 15th. We only have the morning to train technology that day; I think the afternoon is for team planning.
