Jim Lerman: sorry I'm late

Moderator: Jim, do u have a note from your mom?

Jim Lerman: I'm sorry she passed away

Jim Lerman: that's why I'm late

Moderator: i didn't express myself properly...

Jim Lerman: what's the url for the survey we're looking at?

Brian Grenier: http://tinyurl.com/2xvf98

Jim Lerman: thanks b

Wesley Fryer: right, i think that sounds good

Wesley Fryer: hi jim!

Wesley Fryer: i wonder if different rubrics should be availalbe?

Moderator: well, why don't we make the wiki available

Brian Grenier: oops http://tinyurl.com/3xqwqa

Wesley Fryer: yes, we need to thoroughly test the solution we are using

Moderator: me too

Moderator: but I have learnt from experience to not be too confident!

Wesley Fryer: the PD option doesn't have to actually be available till Oct 15th, if it was available Oct 8th that would be ok but not required

Wesley Fryer: ah, ok

Moderator: good idea. @Wes re 8th: that's good

Jim Lerman: putting it up on our blogs is a good idea i think

Brian Grenier: DRAFT added to survey

Moderator: OK, Brian, can you give us the heads up when the survey is good to go?

Brian Grenier: sounds good

Jim Lerman: i agree about 2206

Jim Lerman: that would be 2006

Brian Grenier: that be good

Moderator: lol

Wesley Fryer: here are the 2006 sessions: http://k12onlineconference.org/docs/k12online06-agenda.html

Wesley Fryer: that sounds good Brian

Moderator: great stuff

Wesley Fryer: i have a page on the k12 online site for completion

Brian Grenier: already did it

Moderator: yes

Brian Grenier: yes

Wesley Fryer: yes we can hear you!

Wesley Fryer: http://k12onlineconference.org/?page_id=134

Wesley Fryer: you bet, we can make the text on that page look however we want

Wesley Fryer: [smile]

Moderator:

Wesley Fryer: can you make it go to this link brian?

Wesley Fryer: http://k12onlineconference.org/?page_id=134

Moderator: ok

Moderator: I think I meant on Wes's page

Moderator: yes Wes

Brian Grenier: oh

Brian Grenier: definitely

Moderator: Jim, is your audio ok now

Brian Grenier: yes

Moderator: yes

Wesley Fryer: yes we can hear you!

Moderator: Jim, what about the Plymouth angle?

Moderator: excellent idea

Brian Grenier: good idea

Wesley Fryer: yes

Wesley Fryer: yes, we are making incremental progress!

Moderator: i have relinquished the mic

Wesley Fryer: we could break this into 2 pieces, for what Jamie puts together

Moderator: Welcome back, Jim

Wesley Fryer: you need to release the mic, jim

Brian Grenier: yes

Moderator: click the mic

Jim Lerman: sorry about that

Moderator: I have uni contacts in UK, so I shall pass the rubric to them for their opinions, ok?

Wesley Fryer: what about the credit side? San Antonio ISD will offer credit but that is just good for others?

Moderator: that's right

Moderator: yes

Moderator: there is a simple solution

Wesley Fryer: that is a good idea Jim

Wesley Fryer: we need to outline this on a guidelines page

Wesley Fryer: maybe we should have a public wiki that explains all this?

Wesley Fryer: yes, the rubrics could go on that wiki too

Wesley Fryer: i'll be willing to get that wiki going this afternoon, and then you all could add/edit to it

Wesley Fryer: i wonder if we could get some sort of accredidation from CILC or another organization?

Moderator: what is that, Wes?

Wesley Fryer: Center for Interactive Learning and Collaboration

Moderator: in England we have that taped: we don't value professional development

Wesley Fryer: http://www.cilc.org/

Moderator: thanks, Wes

Wesley Fryer: i have contact with them

Wesley Fryer: so graduate credit is portable, but CPE credit / professional credit is not?

Jim Lerman: corrrect

Wesley Fryer: we should address these issues in the public wiki

Moderator: good idea, Ws

Moderator: Wes*

Brian Grenier: A reflective submission is required to be granted a certificate of completion that includes K12 Online's recommendation for the awarding of Continuing Professional Education credit by your local school district.

Moderator: @Jim: yes

Moderator: thx

Wesley Fryer: yes, we should include that on the rubric too

Moderator: Jim, would u feel comfortable writing the covering letter, as you seem to know about this stuff?

Jim Lerman: i'd be happy to draft it and then post somewhere for others to edit

Moderator: thx

Moderator: post on our wiki

Moderator: That was me

Jim Lerman: the 11th works for me. same time?

Wesley Fryer: from the k12 online conference blog

Wesley Fryer: we could include a PD credit link on each session

Wesley Fryer: maybe a link with the tag for that session?

Wesley Fryer: yes, we can do that

Moderator: i disagree

Wesley Fryer: go ahead terry, what are you thinking?

Wesley Fryer: let's make it active for 48 hours for testing

Moderator: "credit2 won't mean anything in UK. We use the term "accreditation"

Wesley Fryer: Terry said start at midnight GMT

Wesley Fryer: for testing?

Moderator: Brian, it will be automated

Moderator: gmt + 1

Moderator: 3 hours' time

Wesley Fryer: that sounds great, if you can just drop us an email when it is ready Brian, then we can post it to our blogs

Brian Grenier: sounds good Wes

Wesley Fryer: that's all i've got for now

Moderator: it's age, Jim LOL

Moderator: consider it done

Wesley Fryer: great

Wesley Fryer: ideally i think we want this to remain available indefinitely, but you're right, the issue of "is this out of date" would be a good future topic

Brian Grenier: wes do you have the link for 2006 sessions? in schedule format?

Wesley Fryer: sounds great gentleman, this has been great

Wesley Fryer: yes

Wesley Fryer: http://k12onlineconference.org/docs/k12online06-agenda.html

Jim Lerman: great. good job everyone!

Wesley Fryer: ok, bye!
