 * 1st Semester Report

This first semester we have been working on curriculum mapping as a priority and through our TIFF grant our school has adopted the professional development goal in looking at and reviewing the 21st century skills site. In addition we are getting together a group of teacher leaders who will help teachers create new teacher webpages. In addition Lorraine and I are setting dates with our principal for when we can give presentations on 21st century skills and other uses of technology. ~Monica and Lorraine

2nd Semester Report

Implementing your Technology Professional Development Plan** We accomplished our goal to introduce and build capacity of 21st Century Skills. We reached our audience through all staff in-services. The impact is that our staff has a better understanding of 21st Century Skills and are more open to implementing these skills in their daily lessons.

We built capacity through all staff in-service meetings and working individually with teachers who now have smart boards in their classroom this year.
 * Building Capacity**

The strength in 21st Century learning at our site is how open our staff has been to learning about these skills. Next, we need to focus on teachers incorportating specific skills into their lessons.
 * Incorporating 21st Century learning skills and tools**

By helping our teachers become open to using 21st Century Skills our students are gaining knowledge and skills they need for the 21st Century. To meet the needs for different learners we did a lot of one-on-one training. Indicators of success include happy teachers that are willing to try new things and take risks.
