Structure for FACA Report

- Products--training, tutorials
- Summary--how easy we think it'll be for people, directory of choices and what programs--should this be the printable part? Should we put the text from major pages into Word docs attached to the page?
- TechTraining wiki as appendix
- Excerpts from Blog to describe process? Or just leave blog as is?
- parktech.pbwiki.com is frontpage for products--describe how it will continue to evolve
- Link to diigo group links
- Frontpage--inspiration/introduction to FACA--take from proposal

Meeting with Susan, Keith and Kim

To discuss w/ Keith, Susan, Kim:
- hosting Moodle for a few teachers next year
- access to installing software, browser updates, etc.--power users?
- student email aliases
- better publicize what's available--some teachers don't know what they can ask for
- Better distribution/accountability of the tablets to substitute for smartboards (are people sitting on them?)
- pass on faculty responses to survey--want projectors, tablet-type things
- possibility of hosting wikis? Coordinators supporting pbwiki?
- Show the wii
- Discuss tech training website--integration with park staff page.
- Money (for subscriptions, etc.)--not next year--future budgets
- Their questions, comments

Note: let's not do feel the need to give them a full demo of everything we've been doing--let's focus on questions, and they can learn about the things themselves later

PBwiki tutorial done

Comments and tips would be much appreciated.
Wiki Help

Meeting with Louise

Important things to take away:
- Pay attention to the initial rollout, in terms of cost, time, and faculty burden. Maybe consider recruiting groups of people who would definitely get on board.
- Tailor rollout/pitch to divisions.
- Meet with Matt and Kim to show what we've been working on, discuss different needs of different divisions, talk about ways to train, and invite to add ideas to wiki or whatever method of rollout.
- Talked about privacy, school image, comments on webpages.
- Money will be available for various implementation issues through Program Implementation fund.
- Talk to Keith and Susan about building money into tech budget in the future.

Wiki & formatting

I'm working on reformatting the wiki so that it's internally consistent (font, spacing, etc.) and can be used as our FACA report. If that's going to work, it's going to have to be well-organized into categories similar to those for the standard report, as well as printable, in case that's what they need to do. So, let's stick with Arial font, and I'm using the "headings" label to set categories off from each other. If we have a page with a number of different headings on it, let's use the "table of contents" plug-in (which you can add under "add plug-ins" at the top right of the Edit screen).
