Oct+15+Sharing+Out

These are some notes from the October 15 Sharing Out session:

**We need to be:**
 * Getting technology out of the lab and into the classroom
 * Using “Just in Time” technology sharing for colleagues
 * Bringing administrators on board -- sets tone for the entire faculty
 * Dealing with “access” issues for teachers and students
 * Finding levels of comfort to transfer knowledge and skills (learning curve)
 * Matching the right tool to content standard/learning
 * Learning more from each other -- reflections from teachers
 * Connecting with other schools -- collaboration as a way to learn
 * Grappling with filtering issues -- to be open or to be closed?
 * Needing future conversations: cell phones/iPads
 * Reviewing acceptable use policies -- reflect the current environment? Or outdated?
 * Creating a database of classroom examples
 * Sharing out our Professional Development materials with each other
 * Using time at staff meeting to share out a cool tool
 * Bringing students and their digital work to School Committees, which make policy
