Web Conference Dec. 5, 2009

This web conference was vital in clarifying questions that I didn't know I had until others started asking questions which then triggered questions of my own that needed clarification. I send the web conference blog to my team so if they cannot attend they will have an idea of what transpired.



Week 3 assignment:

• Unit goal should be the same - the common thread for the unit.


• Each member should have their own lesson. Make sure that each lesson differentiates instruction.


• Make sure to address each network in the unit. It is allowable that each member have a different network to cover.


• Book reflection could be a URL link to a document or each person on a page on the site as long as coach/professors know who wrote what.


• Look at zoom text, jaws, dragon speak to address the blind student. Some sort of audio will suffice. Do a search on the UDL site for blind or deaf to develop plan to address these needs in the classroom.

Action Plan:

• Could clean up the brainstorming page.


• It shows that the team knows what each is supposed to do.


• Can place the URL to the google site or upload the document.


• Each of the 4 questions need to be addressed.


• Don't have to have the formal assessments yet. Just the ideas. That will be addressed in week 4 in the solution with professional development and assessment of the intervention plan.


• The final will have the example of the rubrics.

Next Conference:

• Thursday 8pm Dec.. 10


• Tuesday Dec. 15


• Look for email/announcements

Solution:

• Final week will address the teacher and professional development


• address how to evaluate the intervention program


• May need prof. development for them to implement or it might be job embedded where the tech demos in the classroom

Week 5:

• Ends Dec 18 at 11:59 pm


• Discussions need to be posted by Tues. of that week.


• there will be a web conference on Tuesday.
