Meeting+of+10+Sep+2007

=Action points=

Actions:
Brian: I spoke with our Staff Development department, we can't issue credit per se, however if K12 submits the paperwork to be issued a CPE Provider # and if we determine the number of hours for each session (I think we agreed on 2) school districts in Texas, and in the U.S. presumably should recognize K12 as a legitimate source of professional dev. and accept the credit. Some districts may be using credit units, but should have a system in place to convert. I have sent the required [|paperwork] to be issued a provider # to Wes. On the Certificate of Completion we issue, we need to be sure to include the CPE Provider # and Number of CPE hours (2).
 * 1. Brian to find out if El Paso accredits non-El Paso teachers**

4. Rubric for self-reflection: Terry to start 5. Adapt practice from Plymouth uni: Jim? 6. Rubric for application in practice: Terry to start? 7. Registration/survey in UCASS: Brian and Miguel? Wes to investigate/discuss idea of registration thru K12: email addresses** Brian: Perhaps instead of calling it "Registration", we should call it something along the lines of "Tell Us About Yourself".
 * 2. Wes to contact Texas Tech**
 * 3. Miguel: same as #1 for San Antonio

9. Submission form/Registration form, with choices of media** Brian: I created a page here to discuss and collaborate on this.
 * 8. Find out numbers seeking credit last year: Wes - RESPONSE: Jeff U confirmed today what Jim said yesterday, 5 participated last year

Issues:
1. Should we have a time limit for PD participation? 2. Should a committee review submissions at the end of the PD time? 3. Should there be a registration for the conference as a whole?
