parents on a weekly
basis via email.
Periodically, we have f2f
interaction.
Project Foundry- I listed
this twice because it was
used primarily last year.
However, we will be
using it in a different
capacity this year and
they are making system
changes, so it will be like
a whole new world to
me.

be a new program we
are utilizing for
students to use. I need
to learn how to use &
how to monitor my
students through the
system.

technical problems
which will come up
throughout the

Email email is my
primary mode of contact
with parents & staff
Google Drive I currently
use Google drive for my
personal use & work
communication.
However, we are adding
Google accounts to our

to learn how to use it in a

information with my
students.

students used this
program last year. I

how best to capture the
needed information.

using this year. As
above I need to learn
how to use it & monitor

create video
communication between
myself and my students.

these are two more
reading systems that I
had a small percentage of

how to collect data in a

programs will be being
used on a large scale. I
would like to continue to

We use this software
currently to conduct staff

Doybns I am very
appreciative of
having supportive,
expert teachers
that are available
beyond the class
to provide support
about e-Learning.

means of contact with
students occurs through

periodically meet with
students via Skype & f2f
at field trips.

CoWorkers I have
saved the best for last. I
interact with my
coworkers virtually on a
daily basis and f2f
periodically. We help
process difficult
decisions together and
come up with plans of
action together.
