Thanks for offering date Lisa. We agreed on the 23rd. We would need full hour. Plan to webcast on Sandbox environment and use webcast academy chatroom.
 * Lisa suggest August 27th. Why not for our webcast? Is 30 minutes enough or will it be longer?**

Topic: Showcase of use of technology in LAUSD schools, K-12.

Strands to Explore;
 * Any Ideas? Perhaps choose 3 different and each of us can research.

Special Guests; John Rivera Local District 5 ITAF, Janice Stearns Local District 6 ITAF, Any teachers out there?

Roundtable Discussion

Barrriers to Effective Use of technology

Announcements of events for 2007-08

We have about 20-30 min for presentation 10-20 for roundtable discussion.

Tools needed; I've used a Skype Conference, Skpecasts have been unreliable lately, or perhaps we can request use of Elluminate. Broadcast would be on edtechtalk.live and posted as a podcast same week. Text chat in edtechtalk if we are using Skype otherwise presentation with audio and text would be inside Elluminate. I can inquire with Martha Valencia if we can use Elluminate. This would be the most teacher friendly.
