October+4,+2011

Diane gave an update on the Tech TA program. There are only a couple of students in the program. We need to see if we can recruit for next semester.

Steve updated us on the labs. Laptop cart 203 has been decommissioned with the laptops deployed to 310 and 137. Lab 310 will be for the largest classes on a priority basis. 105 is being used almost full time.

Shari gave a presentation at the Parent Council meeting last night about plans for the CTS Centre of Excellence and our plans for it.

PD November 14, 2011 in the morning. Studies have shown that the best PD is relevant, meaningful and embedded. We need to present info to teachers that would be immediately useful. We will go back to departments and ask what they need, so we can customize PD for them.

Flat screens are up and running, with pictures and a crawl on the bottom. Richard will replace the RSS feed with the bulletin on the LHS of the screen.

Next meeting Tuesday October 11, 2011
