Postini Security and compliance solutions.

  9. The Need • Current problems with HCPSS PD options: • teachers have little input re: topics • workload • lack of time to participate • low-quality sessions • session topics not useful or interesting • high demand for technology that will automate tasks

  10. The Need • A successful Distance Education Professional Development (DEPD) program needs… • Anytime, anywhere access to training, resources and help • frequent feedback • trackable progress • communication between teachers, instructional design team (HHS Tech Team) , and central office staff • a DEPD program meets these needs

  11. Planning • Instructional Design Team • Project Manager • Responsible for the advertising of the program and for student registration and payment • Instructional Designer • Responsible for Quality Control of the Program • Contact person for any technological issues • Four Subject Matter Experts • Specialists in each of the four Google applications for student reference • One Instructor • Student-centered, interactive assignments, one group project per module (artifact)

  12. What would the DEPD students do? • Students would work through the Google tutorial site • Upon completion of each tutorial, the students will be assessed by completing an artifact demonstrating their mastery of each applications • Stipend and CPD credits awarded upon completion of program within the allotted time (1 semester)

  13. Best Practices & Assessment • Continual feedback • Pre-DE course assessment • Mid-module feedback form • Post course survey • Module artifacts • Group project optional
