TechPlan09_12_Goal1

Recommendations from Steering Committee:
 * Create a 4th grade performance assessment similar to the current "Electronic portfolio" project at Murphy. Base the content on student work from past grades and across the curriculum. Use 2007 NETS. Make consistent across 3 ELEMs.
 * Facilitate creation/communication of skill/knowledge expectations from grades 4->5 and 8->9
 * Discuss move to distance learning (blended learning) and the use of Moodle, Google Apps, and "Social Media Classroom"
 * How is this impacted by the assumption: "All students will have a personal digital device in school by 20XX"
 * Formalize more the 8th grade performance assessment tool

Clint's notes - Goal 1 "fully integrating technology into the academic curriculum" - how do we define this? (explicit "end of 8th grade") what are the BPS student technology standards? who knows this? what are the resources that "improve student achievement"? 24/7 access? YES...how change? "Distance learning"?
