Another interesting day at the factory--I know that a CFF coach is not supposed to deal with technical issues, but most of work thus far has been in that area. When a coach is involved in a small school district with just one techie in the building, he/she must be available to deal with some technical issues. One of my recommendations to the PDE will be that this concept must be dealt with in school districts of my size. I know that other CFF coaches also have this dilemma, and they are handling it the same way. If the technology does not work, then how can a coach teach others to use it. We must be ready to tackle that issue. A big tech issue is getting the wireless up and running efficiently. We have increased the power, and I hope that solves the issue.
I have most of the teachers signed up for the course. There are some wavering on taking it for credit or not, and I have to meet with a teacher today to help her with that issue. I am tackling other areas to try and bring everyone up to speed. I still face some reluctance and obstinance, but I will handle those one at a time. I have developed a packet for teachers to use the intereactive whiteboards and will hand those out tomorrow. I am still trying to get hold of Promethean to get training on the boards for myself and the teachers. It does get frustrating, but all new initiatives can be that way. I have to believe and I do.
It is calling for bad weather on Friday; gotta love the delays, etc. Oh, the lunar eclipse was great. I had better go before I bore any readers to go to some other blog......hahahahahaha
