This isn't quite an answer for you because it isn't really training as =
much as "forced" collaboration. Our big initiative of the last couple =
years has been tablet use. Each year we have added a few more teachers =
in a pilot sort of system and have required them to participate in a =
running blog at http://teacherplaces.com <http://teacherplaces.com/> =
with their projects and lessons learned. Other than that we train new =
teachers on the SIS and the rest is pretty much "just in time" training. =
We are small (50 staff) so it can work but I'm interested in other =
models.

Hi everyone,
I apologize if this is a repeat posting. I'm still scouring the ISED web =
archives.
I'm wondering what everyone is doing with technical training, as well as =
technology integration work. We're interested in offering periodic =
training to our faculty and staff on technical skills, such as using =
Office, e-mail, web browsers, our SIS, etc.
We'd also like to help teachers learn more about integrating technology =
into the classroom, with the assistance of our technology coordinators.
I'd love to know if you're doing anything like this and if so, what =
topics/programs you're teaching, how often you're teaching them, how =
effective it's been, and just information on anything else you've =
encountered.
I'll continue to scour. There is some good stuff on Ning too. :-)
Thanks.
Regards,
Bill Griscom
