Description of Session • Just because you have access to social networking tools does NOT mean you have the right processes in place to use social media effectively in your school community. • Based on current research on social networking, leadership, and K-12 community engagement, attend this session to learn best practices and discuss case studies. • Come prepared to explore, examine, and discuss some great ideas and spectacular flops... and leave with fresh ideas that will serve your community without creating problems.

Bill Parsons, Coordinator, Technology Training
Gwinnett County Public Schools //Thursday, November 3, 2011, 9:45-10:45//

Description of Session: Developing your school district's Instructional Technology Plan is a major undertaking that involves a number of different contributors. How can you create your plan with web-based collaborative tools that put more emphasis on DEVELOPING the plan instead of MEETING to develop the plan? Join Christopher Wells and Bill Parsons from Gwinnett County Public Schools to discuss ideas around collaboration and delivery of your district's plan. This session is an interactive discussion with examples, ideas, and resources for crafting a solid plan that can be distributed on the web or in print to your school community. If you are part of the technology plan update team, this is a session you should not miss!
