Hi! Do any of you all have any information on what you do with you iPods/pads/portables at the end of the school year for summer storage. We have at least one cart per school. I am thinking that we will update ipods, shut them down, wipe them down, unplug from the cart, and unplug the cart from the wall/lock it up in a safe place. Just wondering if I am missing anything and what others do. Thanks so much!See More

Hi! We purchased a few nook color readers and Kindle Fires for our school to use in a pilot program. With the nooks, it seems I am not even able to download a free app or book without a credit card. This makes me very nervous, as they are a one click buy, and they will be in the hand of the kids. How do you manage these tools in school? We have apple devices, but they are password protected. Thanks for any advice!See More
Christine Connelly replied to Rachel Welch's discussion Collaboration #6 in the group Capstone Collaboration 2011"Attached is the last section of our portfolio rubric for session 5 about the reflections. Thanks for doing the survey and 3b Looks great! We are only off to DC. My husband has to do some recruiting and it is his moms 60th...so nothing too…"
Christine Connelly replied to Rachel Welch's discussion Collaboration #6 in the group Capstone Collaboration 2011"So take a look at 3b when you get time. Does it seem to do more with the survey, the tool to communicate, or a little but of everything? It seems like we need to use our personal practices, so it is a little hard to use just one…"
Christine Connelly replied to Rachel Welch's discussion Collaboration #6 in the group Capstone Collaboration 2011"These sound great! Edline is expensive. It is our tool for parent communtication, grade and progress reports (middle and high), and teacher webpages. We also do blogs and wikis on it.
Unfortunately, it is so secure, that I think we are…"
Christine Connelly replied to Rachel Welch's discussion Collaboration #6 in the group Capstone Collaboration 2011"Does your school system happen to use Edline? That is what we use for parent and community communication, as well as for grade uploads.
Also - I want to start coming up with survey questions...I believe it can be for any topic. Maybe a…"
Christine Connelly replied to Rachel Welch's discussion Collaboration #6 in the group Capstone Collaboration 2011"oooh ok. Gotcha. So I am still a little confused. Is the survey we create asking parents, community member etc. about the tool we selected? I feel like a moron. I can always post this to the help section."
Christine Connelly replied to Rachel Welch's discussion Collaboration #6 in the group Capstone Collaboration 2011"I say we go ahead with this. I dont see a survey tool, but maybe we can use the quiz [prtion to build the survey for the parents? Let me invesitigate this tool a little more..."

Christine Connelly replied to Christine Connelly's discussion Session 4 in the group Capstone Collaboration 2011"Hey Rachel,
For some reason I can't open any of these. I think it must be my school network. Would you mind emailing them to me whenever you have time? connellyc@wjcc.k12.va.us. THANKS!"
Rachel Welch replied to Christine Connelly's discussion Session 4 in the group Capstone Collaboration 2011"Attached is my 1A developing that I added to my portfolio. Since we have to describe the processes that we went through in the entry. I thought it might be helpful if you knew what I wrote and turned in.
