Making Progress

The first week of school has come and gone and there has been a lot of productivity on the action research project. There is an order to install Inspiration on all of the computer lab units. Sixteen teacher at Cardozo now have teacherweb sites (even though the district tech guy thinks it is "stupid.") The coolest thing, AR project-wise, is that I have recruited a teacher to help choose a student to work with. The principal has also agreed to take me to see some people that he knows from a previous assignment that have actually done a similar project. All-in-all, not a bad first week. Sure beats the battle zone environment I was in last year. Color me pleased. *** Clarificataion: I was too curt in my quote from the district technology person. His actual quote is this: "The money spent on Teacherweb was a stupid waste of money BECAUSE we have the same thing available to them now with the RUSD website content manager software. It is a redundant and unnecessary expense. "
