Re: Job Opening - Library Information Specialist/ Teacher Librarian

Hi, Nancy,

I know you don't want to move, but this looks to be one of those 'once =20=

in a Librarian's lifetime' gigs. It really is worth a shot IMHO.

Love,
Carl

Re: student information systems

We use Redkier software and are very pleased. If I were starting fresh
I might consider one that has a tighter level of integration between
modules. But, for a product that has been around a long time and as a
result is robust with few issues Rediker is a really nice product. They
are very good about continually adding features and their support is
first rate and friendly.

iTalc in a mobile environment

Is anyone using iTalc in mobile wireless environment? We are thinking

testing environment, I am curious to hear if anyone has deployed across
more than 100 machines.

Re: communication and lice

As the parent of a 4 year old in day care, Marty's experience dovetails cleanly with what they do at my daughter's day care. A note home, accompanied by a personal conversation with a teacher during drop-off and pickup. This is coupled with a very common-sense, practical approach: wash clothes/etc in hot water, and how to spot lice.

This has helped to destigmatize the situation as well. As to the silkworm-eating mice: totally out of my league :)

Cheers,

Bill

"Why we have a laptop program" rationale letter

Every year about this time we send out our "laptop mailing" with
information about the computers we are recommending and ordering
information. For the past two years we've included a cover letter
(included below) presenting the pedagogical rationale for laptops. I'm
curious whether other one-to-one schools send out such a rationale, and if
so whether they would be willing to share these here on ISED. If anyone
has thoughts regarding how our letter could be improved it would be great
to hear those too. :-)

Thanks,

Fred

====================================================
Why RCDS Has A Student Laptop Program

RCDS started its one-to-one computer program in 1999. The over-riding goal
of the program has always been to make the information processing power of
the computer available to students whenever and wherever needed. This does
not mean that laptops are or should be used all the time. Instead it means
that the computer will be there whenever there is a benefit to be gained
from its use. This approach is essentially no different from how pencil
and paper have been deployed in schools. Pencil and paper are not used all
the time but we want them to be immediately accessible at all times.

Following are some more specific reasons we have laptop computers at RCDS.

1. Schools that help their students and teachers harness the information
processing power which laptop computers provide will place their students
at a competitive advantage. Students will be more engaged in learning the
content of the curriculum while at the same time developing deep
competency using the problem-solving environment provided by the computer.

2. Laptops help promote a positive shift toward more project based, hands
on learning, and away from lecture based learning. Lecture based learning
will not, and should not, disappear. However, the information manipulation
environment provided by laptops allows teachers to reduce their reliance
on lecturing.

3. Writing is done across the curriculum. Word processing makes writing a
significantly more enjoyable process for students. Students do more
writing and revision when they have laptops.

4. Mathematics education is made richer and more engaging with the aid of
software tools like spreadsheets, Geometer's SketchPad, and Mathematica.

5. History, social studies, and current events instruction is enriched by
students having immediate access to the vast wealth of information
available on the Internet. Laptops provide a platform for the creation
and presentation of multimedia-rich projects.

6. Science education is greatly enhanced by the data gathering, data
analysis and simulation software tools that run within the virtual digital
laboratory the laptop provides.

7. Foreign Language instruction success correlates highly with the time
students are able to spend in immersive environments. The multimedia
capabilities of laptops allow students to spend more time listening and
speaking in the language of instruction. With the right software, and a
set of headphones, a laptop can function like a language lab work station.
Laptops also provide access, through the Internet, to the media of the
countries where the language of instruction is the native language.

8. In art, music and drama laptops provide easy access to examples of best
practices. Students visit virtual museums, listen to music clips, and
watch videos of great performances. Students also use various software to
assist in the creation of artwork, music, scripts and digital video.

9. Laptops provide easy storage and access to a student's accumulating
body of work. By viewing previous work students can better gauge their own
progress and avoid repeating tasks already accomplished.

10. All students develop a strong competency in using computers. Providing
laptops to students goes a long way toward eliminating any digital divides
in the use of technology.


In sum, enabling students with laptops helps create a more humane school
environment in which drudgery and deadening repetitive tasks are minimized
while exploratory and creative tasks are maximized.

English position wanted in greater Boston area

Hi,all,=20
=20
I hope your end of school year is progressing. This is a shot in the
dark, but we have a part-time English teacher here who is leaving and
looking for a day school high school English teaching position (or even
a college level position) in the greater Boston area. She's a lovely
person and a good teacher (well qualified, too) and I thought it might
be worth sending a note out for any late hiring situations you may know
of. Please contact me (on or or off-list at vrichter at exeter.edu) if
you know of any open English/Writing/Communications positions for fall.

=20
Thanks, Vi

Re: communication and lice

FYI about lice:
At a previous school we had reoccurring bouts of lice in the Middle
School. Turns out they were living in a couch that the students
frequented all day long. Fumigated the couch, put mayonnaise on the
infected heads (suffocates the lice) and the problem was resolved.

Recently I wrote an article for the AASL magazine Knowledge Quest
(Nov/Dec 2007) on this subject titled "Know When to Hold 'em". It is
not available on-line but your school librarian probably has a copy and
you may find it helpful since there was very little in the way of school
specific information available when I researched it.

Basically:
1. Not all email is created equal. Every school will have unique data
retention requirements. For example: If you have financed new
construction through a bond, you may have document retention
requirements (including email) specifically related to certain financial
requirements. Some states have passed laws that require retention of
emails by administrators but not by teachers. Any service your school
nurse or doctor charges for has HIPAA retention requirements. Your
retention policy for these documents may simply be to print them out.
It does not have to be a purely technical solution. In any case, they
tend to be a small number of emails and should not set the bar for your
entire system.
2. Lawyers will generally tell you to delete as much as you can, as
quickly as possible. Most of us want to hang on for historical
purposes, to compile historical trends, and archives can be a great
source of school information in the future. Your school has to find the
balance. Deleting everything as quickly as possible reduces the chance
of lawsuits based on a "culture" (typically discriminatory or sexual
harassment). However, if you don't have a large endowment or other
assets that be targeted by legal action, it is less likely that you will
face that kind of legal action.=20
3. Keep your policy simple and automate as much as possible so you can
be sure it is followed. When you receive a warrant or are sued, any
deviation from your policy can look bad and potentially cause other
legal issues. I recommend reading this before the police arrive and
keep a copy of it with your retention policy.
http://www.ala.org/ala/oif/ifissues/confidentiality.cfm=20
4. Make sure your policy considers all infrastructure. If you require
email to be retained 6 months or less, but you keep your email systems
backups for a year, then your backups are violating your retention
policy. Also make sure the policy accounts for the firewall logs, spam
filter cache, and the other infrastructure that retains copies of
messages and behavior on the network.

Obviously there is a lot more to it than this but hopefully it helps and
I believe NAIS now has some helpful resources for this as well including
a sample policy, but it is behind the pay-wall so I do not have access.

Re: communication and lice

One of the things that helps to remove the stigma of head lice, and allows
it to be treated like any other childhood infirmity, is the willingness to
*talk* about it. When each of our daughters, 9.5 years apart, had bouts with
head lice from both daycare and school, we openly talked about it, including
discussing the changes in treatment that had occurred the intervening years.

When you talk about it like it was the chicken pox, the stigma goes away.
The problem is that while many of us know from having read the most recent
research that it's *not* a cleanliness-based problem, many people still
think it is, and no one wants to be the first to say "our kid has head lice"
and possibly be shunned by the unenlightened.

Re: School databases and the staffing for management of those databases

This has been a great thread, with some excellent ideas discussed.

My 2 additions:

1. As you are sanitizing/normalizing your data and moving into a new system, make sure that your system exports your data equally cleanly. If your new system offers you a clean UI to enter data, and is easy to use, that's great, but a good system will also offer a migration path should you ever need it. As you evaluate systems, look explicitly at how data can be exported and moved to different systems. You newly hired Database Administrator will be able to help with this :)

2. The process of forming your faculty committee on essential data should also be used as education/outreach within your school community. Frequently, data management is shrouded in mystery, and is seen as something outside the purview of a school's mission. Anything that demystifies the process and helps non-tech folks understand some of the complexities of data management is a Good Thing, and helps to unify the school community.

Re: communication and lice

I'm a parent in our lower school, which is probably the only reason I can
give feedback on this. When there's a case of head lice, a note goes home
in the backpack of each kid in that homeroom, simply saying that there has
been a case of head lice in the class and listing what to look for and how
to deal with it. The child isn't named, so perhaps that's enough to
protect privacy.

The parents just sigh and start inspecting heads. There doesn't seem to
be any stigma attached. The kids don't (at least mine don't) come home
talking about somebody having lice, and I haven't encountered any teasing
about it at school. I think we're pretty good at treating the occasional
bout of lice as part of lower school life -- perhaps that's an attitude
that has been consciously crafted by our administration; I don't know.

Our LS teachers are also great at modeling not freaking out about the
occasional mouse in the classroom. One 1st grade class had two science
projects eaten up by mice: drying different kinds of grapes to see which
made the best raisins, and raising silkworms. The mice got 'em both.
Oops. But I digress...

Hope this helps,
- marty

Re: student information systems

I would suggest that you look at OpenAdmin --

http://richtech.ca/openadmin/ . See

http://schoolcomputing.wikia.com/wiki/Student_Information_Systems for a
list of other options.

Re: Digital Photography class

=20
Hello Barbara of Rocky Hill school,
=20
We have been running a digital photography class for the past three
years.
We also offer standard black and white photography. In answer to your
questions:

Lab fee: I don't charge a lab fee. Disposable supplies, (ink and
paper) run me less than black and white photography.

Software: We use Adobe photoshop CS3, Illustrator CS3 and Corel
Painter.
Academic Superstore and Creation Engine are two good school software
supply companies.

Cameras: In the past I have asked the students to provide their own
digital cameras, (we have loaner manual black and white cameras). This
year the art department has purchased 4 Canon Powershot S515 cameras
from B and H. I get a shipping deal as a member of the National
Association of Photoshop Professionals. The student's have to sign out
the cameras and are responsible for their safety. I also have a digital
SLR that I let the kids borrow during class on campus. I have a locked
cabinet where these are stored.

Printers: We have an Epson stylus photo R1800 printer. It can print up
to
13 x 19 paper, panorama prints and on printable cds. We also have a
work horse laser printer for working copies and illustrations. Ink jet
printers are the best for photo quality printing. The printer has 8
cartridges at roughly $12 each and we go through 3 to 4 per color per
year. The laser printer is cheaper to run but the prints aren't final
quality.

Questions not asked: Eventually you might want to get tablets and
stylus "pens" for more precision in your student's work. We have Wacom
tablets and they are invaluable for detailed work.

Have fun!.

Re: student information systems

FYI - Focus went closed source, but there's two other groups that are
working on school admin software - SchoolTool is being funded by
Canonical, the parent company of Ubuntu and OA-SIS took over the code
from Focus.

Centre is a nice package and has been recently revived by the Miller
Group.

Re: School databases and the staffing for management of those databases

A little off topic - but I've recently come across some great free and
open source Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) tools and the one I really
like is called Pentaho Kettle - so that can really help with database
administration and reporting. There's also Talend and JasperSoft - all
good.
