I worked top catch up today after being out for two days last week. I am so glad that the teachers are trying the whiteboards; it will be a lot of trial and error, but they must let the kids work on some of the material. It is tough to let go of those reins, but it is neat to be a facilitator. Like I said, the technology ed (shop) teachers have had the idea for years. We have our building wireless up and running. I know there will be some glitches, but doesn't that happen with most things. It will all work out with some patience; ah, the key word is patience. We expect our students to have it, and we exhibit little of it sometimes. The old adage comes into play, "Do as I say; not as I do." Time is such commodity now, but I know it will all work out. I am going to meet with the teachers this Friday and begin the course with them. I am going to get them signed up for it and begin. I am going to take a laissez-faire approach with them, but they must all take it. I find some of the course to be thought provoking, but it is mostly theory with some rhetoric thrown in. Well, I must get back to work.........cya
