Please click on Edit button to add comments on what you would like to see accomplished/discussed at our next HQTS meeting, and don't forget to click  when done.

__**Anne Marie:**__ discuss how we (individually &/or as a group) plan to meet the requirements outlined in our original UsingDigitalToolstoTeachNewLiteracies8_11.pdf, which can be found at bottom of left navigation bar in a .pdf file. I have repeated some of its content below in my comments for your convenience: > 1. All participants of this HQTS activity will document and submit at least one lesson > or unit plan upon completion of this activity, and commit to a minimum of 15 > minutes sharing your ideas/tools/HQTS experience with colleagues at a future > faculty meeting or during an early release day. This "sharing" may be done > individually or as a team, but needs to be accomplished at each participant's > school. > 2. Participants applying for SIS will document and submit an additional 3-4 specific > applications of digital tools in separate lessons
 * Demonstration of Educator Learning (If this is not a content-specific activity, how will participants demonstrate their learning in the own certification area?)
 * Participants will develop expertise and lesson plans to employ digital tools that address new common core standards. Demonstration of learning can be linked to participants’ individual area of certification.
 * Participants will need to show a connection between High Quality Teacher Share Activity and its impact on student learning in the classroom by submitting the Impact on Student Learning form at the end of the second (2nd) session.
 * Need to locate this "Impact on Student Learning Form" and discuss who/how it will be completed by each of us
 * Expected Deliverables Upon Completion of this HQTS activity:
 * Michael also wanted us to share our experience during a faculty meeting; some of us have already did this, correct? I plan to share the Moodle course at our next staff meeting on April 30th

 * I think what Anne Marie outlined above makes sense since we need to do many of these things to fulfull our original commitment to the HQTS.**
 * Also, I'm really excited about our Moodle Adventure and I really want to focus most of my "left-over" energy on that to fill out the year. This is something that is certainly having a significant impact on my students so I really want to keep it moving forward.**

__**Antrese:**__ Anne Marie's outline answers most of my concerns at this point. Additional thoughts are: Did we have a minimum number or hours we needed to submit and have we met that? What is our deadline? How detailed do these plans need to be? I did share my Wiki, and Glog projects at staff meeting awhile back.

__**Dale:**__ I am fine with meeting to cover our bases. I share Antrese's question of hours and need to make sure I cover myself for the SIS credits. I would like to meet as soon as possible to put my papers in order and hand in. __**Thanks to all of you.**__
