So I have been a little more than busy this month, but it would have been interesting if I could have kept track of all the details of the past several weeks. Now that I have a moment to breathe, I'd like to try to summarize what I've done and what's left to accomplish, but I'm behind on my schoolwork! I also have a training to conduct from 1:30 - 3:00, so it's not like I'm done yet! I'm sooooooo hungry because I thought we'd have breakfast at the tech meeting this morning and we didn't! Before school meetings should have coffee and food!
Anyway, today it's the batch scanner presentation this afternoon. This morning was a school-wide tech committee meeting, but it wasn't really school-wide because not that many people were there. Covered TAC stuff for 2nd semester, found out report cards are still in process, and moved on to discuss scanners as well, but in the context of Examview more specifically. Mark seems to be encouraging Examview, but the message that I'm receiving is that Examview was eliminated for consideration by the admin team as a potential district wide testing program because it lacked the powerful stats engine needed for such a task. Apparently, there's a third party app that Examview dovetails with but I don't know much about it. I was promised some trial access but I don't know what happened to that. Should follow through. Anyway, though, people are going to get very irritated if we encourage Examview and go with something else.
Speaking of Examview, I've got to get all the punctuation, capitalization, etc. stuff that I can into Examview so that my 2nd semester has a grammar/mechanics aspect. Also, I want to get the JP vocabulary into some better form (and onto quia, too). Building it a little piece at a time....
I'm going to move out and get some work graded, much as I'd love to download for a bit, so I'll hopefully get back to this soon.
