Week+4+agenda

|||||| Collaborator #2: || David Silar |||| Location: PIJH Computer Lab. Rm# 205 || Start Time: 7:45am || End-Time: 8:25am || To make known and explain the purpose of the training. To inform participants of 1.5 hours of Technology credit. |||| The session will be held in the computer lab where computers and projector are available in an uninterrupted environment. Provide coffee and water for the participants. The teachers will be creating a graph or chart based on previous student math and science TAKS scores to create a student product that will foster success. || Participants are presented with an outline agenda for the session. Facilitaors name, contact information, and important web addresses are included. The facilitator has a short Power Point presentation with three completed student project examples, particular CIP Objective with goals and a WIKI address for support and follow-up. 1. Teachers will pair up with a subject area partner. 2. Teachers are given the AEIS data that pertains to their students and subject area. 3. Teachers need to log on a computer and open MS Excel. || 10 minutes || 2. Once the data is input, teachers will create a chart showing what the objective concerns are and how many students did not meet the standard. || 15minutes || || Pairs use the internet to examine available project ideas, descriptions, and results (facilitator should have some example websites prepared). || 15minutes || 2. Teachers create a rubric for the project for student || Due 1 week after training. || It will be filled out and returned by participants. || Evaluation mailed out the day of training. Participants have 3 days to return the evaluation. Reminder emails are sent accordingly. || There help, samples templates and projects are posted, and collaboration on ideas. || The wiki will be active. ||
 * Session Purpose:  To create student project for TAKS objective concerns in mathematics and science subjects using several technologies available to teachers and students. To link learning objectives and goals to the Campus Improvement Plan (CIP).  ||
 * Learning Objective to Be Addressed:  Motivation and emotional influences on learning ||
 * Collaborator # 1: Wiki study group
 * Grade Level: 6th, 7th, and 8th || Facilitator:
 * **Learner-Centered Activity** ||  **Purpose**  ||||  **Description**  ||  **Steps**  ||  **Estimated Time**  ||
 * Greetings, Introduction, and Session Focus || To allow teachers to realize that the group consists of all the math and science teachers from 6th -8th grade levels.
 * Desegregating AEIS data (Construction of Knowledge) || To find the top 5 objectives students struggled with in past TAKS and benchmark testing  |||| Teachers look at AEIS information to determine the objective concerns.  || 1. Teachers create an Excel grid with 5 columns (top 5 objectives) and one row with a set value formula.
 * Creating a Student Project (Goals of the learning process) || Teachers will use the information obtained to decide what type of project would be most beneficial.  |||| Teachers look at different projects that students could create such as: experiments, web quests, information pamphlets, or others.
 * Work on creating a sample project (Motivational and emotional influences on learning) || <span style="color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Teachers will create a sample project that will spark student curiosity and interest.  |||| <span style="color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Teachers prepare a sample project or template  || <span style="color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Teachers will use their planning and other time to complete a student sample project.  || <span style="color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">1 week after training  ||
 * <span style="color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Creation of standards, rubrics, and assessments (Standards and assessments) || <span style="color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">To have specific goals, procedures, and desired outcomes for the project’s success.  |||| <span style="color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Teachers will produce a rubric set, procedures, and expectations.  || <span style="color: windowtext; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">1. Teachers construct a set of instructions, guidelines and procedures.
 * Evaluation || To access the Learner Centered Staff development. |||| Participants will be emailed a survey that needs to be filled out in order to receive 1.5 technology hours credit. || The facilitator will create an evaluation form on Adobe Workshop that will be mailed out the day of the training.
 * Follow-up || To provide continuing support. |||| Participants are emailed a Wiki address and encouraged to collaborate. || The facilitator of the professional development becomes the facilitator of the Wiki.
