Professional Learning Community- Harness The Power of "Q"

Q: a measure of how densely interconnected the entire community is. The work of our Professional Learning Community is underway with only a slight bump in the road. Wetpaint's policy changes forced us to consider other avenues for e-portfolio development. With the new addition of Google Apps for Education, we immediately made the choice to have our students move to Google Sites. Charlot opened up Sites for our student accounts and Lew helped the seniors move content from Wetpaint to Sites. It's as easy as cut and paste. We presented the changes in an all faculty meeting as well as introduced the new Apple Core Team. Hand picked, these kids will lead e-portfolio tech days for CTE. Job shadowing is our main focus this year. We are in the process of making sure all the Juniors and Seniors have completed their portfolio requirements.
