Technology Committee Meeting

July 8, 2003

Purpose of meeting          Discuss ideas for integrating technology into the curriculum; discuss teacher surveys.

Attendees    Janet Brinkop, Carolynn Chase, Al Coleman,  Marty McMahon, Marian Miller, Jim Skeen, and Carolyn Wittman.

Meeting Summary.  

We reviewed our decisions made at the last meeting, on March 6, 2003.  We decided to drop the computer/community skill survey, originally planned for May, 2003 (i.e., the survey of students first made in the Fall of 2002).  

We decided to postpone a newly created  student survey, originally planned for September, 2003, until later.

We decided to survey ESL/ABE/GED staff at Sequoia Adult school re technology skills and use of technology in the curriculum.  We'll do this to establish a baseline that will help document progress made under grants made to the school, as well as help us determine necessary training for teachers.
