Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:34:33 PMHi Gang
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:34:42 PMhi
Brian O'Connor11/27/20018:34:42 PMhowdy
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:34:43 PMHello
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:34:52 PMDid everyone survive the snow?
Christi Harter11/27/20018:35:00 PMhello
Sandy Nightingale11/27/20018:35:00 PMHello
Brian O'Connor11/27/20018:35:04 PMWe need more out west.
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:35:06 PMAll 18" of it!
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:35:19 PMYou can have it all out west!
Brian O'Connor11/27/20018:35:20 PMI WANT TO SKI!!!
Cheryl Jenner11/27/20018:35:20 PMHi, we only got about a foot, but that is enough
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:35:22 PMYeah, it really piled up!
Jennifer Nelson11/27/20018:35:38 PMjust got myself dug out before supper!
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:35:39 PMI'm completely pooped out from all the shoveling
Tricia Neugebauer11/27/20018:35:54 PMtractors do the job at my house
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:35:58 PMBut, Jenn, you had all day without school in session!
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:36:02 PMMark, I thought thats what graduate students are for
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:36:20 PMneighbors at mine, but I had to dig a trail for the cats to have somewhere to wander.
Bruce Mastel11/27/20018:36:25 PMI did four driveways..I am ready for bed
Brian O'Connor11/27/20018:36:26 PMThat is the bad thing about DE for Grad instructors andy.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:36:35 PMWell, put, I was just going to tell Tricia I can give some serious extra credit if a tractor were to show up at my place
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:36:47 PMWhy am I accepting incoming calls?
Jennifer Nelson11/27/20018:36:50 PMTrue, but I waited until the big tractor came and did the majority of the work in our parking lot
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:37:08 PMDon't know Andy,
Tricia Neugebauer11/27/20018:37:12 PMwell Mark I think my husband would be HAPPY to volunteer
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:37:42 PMWell, I got through it this storm, but it was a rude wake-up to winter call if you ask me
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:38:01 PMSo Brian, did you ski?
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:38:04 PMGive us a week and the snow will be ALL GONE!
Tricia Neugebauer11/27/20018:38:09 PMjust think...winter doesn't officially start til dec 21ST!
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:38:18 PMis that a promise, Andy?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:38:21 PMThe pile of snow in my front yard beside my driveway would make a great run!
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:38:27 PMWest river it is
Brian O'Connor11/27/20018:38:35 PMI fall down the hill a lot, but I trie really hard.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:38:50 PMOkay gang, . . .
Brian O'Connor11/27/20018:38:56 PMTry...that is "I try really hard."
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:39:19 PMWe're here to see if we can address any issues on the development of your evaluation plans, but first . . .
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:39:30 PMI enjoyed the comments you shared on the technology plan analysis paper
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:39:57 PMThe tone I heard, was that you think there are some real chinks in the rational and method of the paper, right?
Bruce Long11/27/20018:40:05 PMWhat comments will you make as a person on editorial board?
Christi Harter11/27/20018:40:09 PMyes, too broad
Cindy Rall11/27/20018:40:26 PMyes
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:40:30 PMBut some good thoughts though.
Bruce Mastel11/27/20018:40:31 PMlooking for key words in a haystack?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:40:41 PMWell, I say whether they should publish the paper or not, if not, I have to say why . . .
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:40:54 PMif it needs revised, I'm supposed to say where
Bruce Mastel11/27/20018:41:04 PMcan it be generalized as is?
cliff delong11/27/20018:41:06 PMpublish after revision?
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:41:08 PMthe coded key words. I think, intrigued us. How did they do that, couldn't they have said more?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:41:36 PMYes, they can Cliff, the paper can either be accepted pending revisions, or not accepted but encouraged to submit agian,. . . .
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:42:09 PMthe latter they have to wait again to go through the review process, the former they don't, it goes right in and is schedule for the next volume of the journal
cliff delong11/27/20018:42:29 PMvalidity and replicability exist - therefore?
Brian O'Connor11/27/20018:42:32 PMMy question is: Were the big seven arbitrary or do they really exist in some national format?
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:42:37 PMBut, if there is nothing out there studying the state plans as a whole, it's a good one to revise and work on. The literature review said in 2000 they found little.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:43:00 PMYes Sandy, I believe they could have said more about the methodology,
Lisa Tolliver11/27/20018:43:31 PMHow many reviewers are there for this one article?
Paulette Mangold11/27/20018:43:33 PMGood question Brian
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:43:44 PMmy question, too, Brian.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:43:52 PMSandy, I agree, but state technology plans are not where to find the best evaluation information or other information out there.
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:44:28 PMBut if it doesn't start at the state level. . .
Bruce Long11/27/20018:44:32 PMAnd definitelynot the best place to find out what is really happening out there.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:44:36 PMArbitrary Brian. There are standards that claim to be nationally adopted, but not all stakeholders adhere to htem. But, there were reasonable.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:44:46 PMThree reviewers per article Lisa
cliff delong11/27/20018:44:48 PMIt starts at the national level - trickle down
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:45:04 PMThe question is, how did you think this was relevant to evaluation?
Cindy Rall11/27/20018:45:09 PMnot always Cliff
Christi Harter11/27/20018:45:15 PMis it fair to evaluate states on a whole as they did?
Bruce Mastel11/27/20018:45:34 PMagreed christi...one place for all the facts?
Brian O'Connor11/27/20018:45:37 PMI think that it is a good study if you just look at it as "What drives a tech plan," but It isn't suppose to be much more than that anyway is it?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:45:58 PMI believe it's flawed at some level to look at state plans and say they have the lions share of the management responsibility for technology development in states
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:46:13 PMAn evaluation of state plans, in research format
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:46:36 PMSo many others play a role in building the technology capacity, philanthropies, foundations, corporations
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:46:48 PMIt could be that Andy
cliff delong11/27/20018:46:49 PMHowever, NCA would consider them to be the mission - or guiding document for the state.
Christi Harter11/27/20018:46:51 PMat the state level, too?
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:46:56 PMat the k12 level Mark?
Paulette Mangold11/27/20018:47:26 PMI think that looking at the state plans is ok but there needs to be a follow-up on whether the plans were actually implemented at their local levels
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:47:28 PMProbably Cliff, that's the problem.
Tricia Neugebauer11/27/20018:47:32 PMI felt the article was more of a skimmed view or eval versus and indepth true evalualtion of the plans
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:47:33 PMYup Christi and Andy
Tricia Neugebauer11/27/20018:48:01 PMI agree Paulette....a plan is one thing what is done with it is another....and probably another study entirely
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:48:02 PMYes Tricia, it didn't systematically look at the evaluation.
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:48:20 PMI wondered that, Mark, as I read it--how it was relevant to evaluation. At first I despaired of having any comments at all.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:48:44 PMThat's true Paulette, we always want to know does the implementation follow the blueprint. The issue is in the adequcy of the blue print
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:49:06 PMThey only looked for key phrases or words, correct? They really didn't look at the technology plans.
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:49:29 PMPlus, looked for only the phrases they wanted to look at.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:49:29 PMThe main point it, I think the article underestimates technology development by looking at state plans only as the source.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:49:52 PMI imagine they did a pretty thorough read. Then a key word seaerch
cliff delong11/27/20018:49:54 PMrather than as a hoop?
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:49:57 PMCounterpoint. How many thousands then do you look at?
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:50:08 PMWe couldn't even tell from the study if the plans included evaluation.
Paulette Mangold11/27/20018:50:10 PMDefinitely Mark. What is happening in the grassroots may not be reflected at the state level.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:50:19 PMRather than as a hoop ;-)
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:50:25 PMand versa visa Paulette
Paulette Mangold11/27/20018:50:33 PM Many times Right Andy
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:50:37 PMOkay, thanks for tackling that task
Cindy Rall11/27/20018:50:38 PMIt is like evaluating education by just interviewing administration
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20018:50:54 PMExactly Cindy
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:50:54 PMGood analogy Cindy
Andy Conrad11/27/20018:50:57 PMor the governor
Tricia Neugebauer11/27/20018:51:06 PMohhhh
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:51:11 PMYIKES-governor
Tammie Munsen11/27/20018:51:13 PMnice point
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:51:23 PMOkay, how are you plans coming?
Christi Harter11/27/20018:51:38 PMwe're getting there
Cindy Rall11/27/20018:51:42 PMwe are getting there
Bruce Long11/27/20018:51:43 PMAgreed.
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20018:51:48 PMRose, Brian and I are plugging away on them.
Bruce Mastel11/27/20018:51:52 PMwe are near complete with our hardware audit
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:52:05 PMYea! Bruce
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:52:13 PMLots of you are working hard, I know. I appreciate the effort it taks to do so.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:52:32 PMA point to make on the software and web site evaluation . . . .
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20018:52:42 PMThank God Rose and Brian had a snow day yesterday.:-)
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:53:15 PMRemeber you are attempting to determine through your evaluation, if a process is in place to systematically acquire hardware.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:53:57 PMAt some point, yes, a software or web site evlauation form will be used. But there are other things to look for to see if an appropriate process is observed . . .
Bruce Long11/27/20018:54:16 PMWon't that be a little different in our situation where we are evaluating a grant program?
Sandy Krage11/27/20018:54:20 PMHow is that determined? By checking to see if it's in the tech plan? Interviewing the business manager?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:54:24 PMFor example, stakeholder involvement, links to appropraite standards, etc.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:55:08 PMYeah, by checking the technology plan, interviewing the tech coord. or teachers to see if thay have had any say in the purchase and use of technology
Bruce Long11/27/20018:55:22 PME.g The grant requires specific acquisitions. Have they been done?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:55:47 PMYes, Bruce, you are absolutely right. And it will be a little bit different for the OLC gang and the after school program Christi is evaluating . .
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:56:23 PMSo, you have to determine the relevance of these peices in your evaluation. So, include these types of issues in your evaluation where it makes sense
Christi Harter11/27/20018:56:24 PMit's very straight forward for us, it seems
Cindy Rall11/27/20018:56:36 PMYes but in the grant programs dont you have to prove sustainability and so further acquisition will be needed in the future?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:56:52 PMRight Bruce
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:57:03 PMSustainability can be defined many ways
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:57:27 PMAnd, not always have to be linked to software or eb site use.
Christi Harter11/27/20018:57:44 PMand the grant doesn't tie into hardware when it comes to sustainability
Christi Harter11/27/20018:57:53 PMor software or websites
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:58:10 PMOkay, that's my tip of the software/web site evaluation thing. Any questions in general?
Cindy Rall11/27/20018:58:11 PMI see
Cindy Rall11/27/20018:58:23 PMmost of ours do
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20018:58:40 PMChristi Are you working on the 21st cent. grant after school program?
cliff delong11/27/20018:58:45 PM[Private to stacy phelps] slackinghereandthereandeverywhere - lurker
Christi Harter11/27/20018:58:45 PMyes
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:58:46 PMUsually not Christi, some exceptions with renewable funding sources
Christi Harter11/27/20018:59:08 PMexactly, Mark, year to year, it does, I was thinking after the final year...
Mark Hawkes11/27/20018:59:21 PMOLC gang, I see you in back of the class talking to each other--things coming together for you?
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20018:59:23 PMHave you visited with Dorene Gosmire and gotten any documents from her that might help you.
cliff delong11/27/20018:59:42 PM[Private to stacy phelps] slackinghereandthereandeverywhere
cliff delong11/27/20018:59:52 PM[Private to stacy phelps] slackinghereandthereandeverywhere
Christi Harter11/27/20019:00:00 PMshe's very busy...and no, we have the grant's format
cliff delong11/27/20019:00:01 PMslackinghereandthereandeverywhere
stacy phelps11/27/20019:00:22 PM[Private] no just reading and trying to get caught up and see if i should say something but i will only read
Andy Conrad11/27/20019:00:35 PMdefine together.
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20019:00:37 PMI know Mary Baumeister of BHSSC has her info. in very organized format for this side of the state and might be able to give you some info.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:00:48 PMChristi, during the trhree years that the funding is provided, the program funders can leverage performance indicators the suggest sustainability is growing, after the money stops, they have no leverage, but of course we hope the program has some life.
Christi Harter11/27/20019:01:23 PMexactly, and the possiblity for renewal, either federally or statewise
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:01:35 PMAll peices of the evaluation in place and amazingly coherent, I couldn;t expect anything less from you!
Christi Harter11/27/20019:01:41 PMwe deal w/ that continually for our annual reports
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:02:12 PMAnd evaluation data is critical in those annual reports.
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20019:02:39 PMEvery grant at TIE has an evaluation team constantly evaluating the work being done.
Sandy Krage11/27/20019:02:40 PMDo you think all the grants will be funded next year, with all the $$$ going for the Afghan war?
Christi Harter11/27/20019:02:42 PMwe have specific evaluators that do that work for us
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:02:50 PMHow about the infamous White Lake Three, how's things going for you?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:03:48 PMGood question Sandy, but I believe that will be a part of the stimulus plan. Although te PTS program and lots of the Technology Challenge Grant programs are ending
Tammie Munsen11/27/20019:03:55 PMWe are going to work on it again tomorrow night.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:04:32 PMGood
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:04:44 PMPTS??? I meant PT3
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20019:05:01 PMI was curious but afraid to ask what PTS was
Sandy Krage11/27/20019:05:15 PMor PT3
Rose Andersen11/27/20019:05:17 PMHi Guys, I was working on an assignment and lost track of time, but I'm here
Rose Andersen11/27/20019:05:27 PMDid I miss much of anything
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20019:05:40 PMEverything:-)
Brian O'Connor11/27/20019:05:43 PMWe were just plotting to take over the world, Rose
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:05:49 PMDon't blame you Marcia, but I would never say anything embarass us, well, maybe a few of us
Rose Andersen11/27/20019:05:56 PMThat is good what can i do to help
cliff delong11/27/20019:06:08 PMWhy do you think that this will be part of the Economic Stimulas Plan form a bipartisan wartime congress, Mark?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:06:14 PMOkay, so Rose brings the donuts next time--is that where we ended up?
Rose Andersen11/27/20019:06:24 PMgood
Brian O'Connor11/27/20019:06:28 PMyes...and cake
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20019:06:40 PMGerman Chocolate
Tammie Munsen11/27/20019:06:47 PMI have a burning question, What will the final consist of?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:06:54 PMThat's a concession the Repubs will have to make as minority party.
Sandy Krage11/27/20019:06:59 PMDo we really need a final?
Brian O'Connor11/27/20019:07:07 PMGood point Sandy
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20019:07:12 PMI was wondering the same thing Tammie
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:07:13 PMTax cuts won't do it, tried that once, fell on it's face.
Tammie Munsen11/27/20019:07:18 PMPersonally, I thought we would waive it!
Bruce Mastel11/27/20019:07:22 PMDoug just emailed me and he can't get in...he will catch up from Trician and I wed....
Andy Conrad11/27/20019:07:26 PMI don't think we need a final
Brian O'Connor11/27/20019:07:30 PMGood point Tammie
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:07:34 PMOnly an opinion, any others?
Rose Andersen11/27/20019:07:35 PMme either
Brian O'Connor11/27/20019:07:39 PMGood point Andy
Lisa Tolliver11/27/20019:07:53 PMI agree with Andy
Paulette Mangold11/27/20019:07:54 PMI believe we are showing what we have learned by our fantastic final project
cliff delong11/27/20019:07:56 PMI would prefer to be assessed with a pena and paper proctored examination book - thank you very much
Brian O'Connor11/27/20019:07:58 PMGood point...er..ah..well
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:07:59 PMHey, I've agonized over this final to make it agonizing as I can!
Lisa Tolliver11/27/20019:08:01 PMright, Paulette
Bruce Long11/27/20019:08:05 PMLet's do another mandatory web board discussion. that was fun.
Rose Andersen11/27/20019:08:24 PMthats not fair mark make it easyu
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20019:08:38 PMIs anything like your quiz was? If so, please don't. :-)
Andy Conrad11/27/20019:08:43 PMkeep it to yourself Mark
Bruce Mastel11/27/20019:08:46 PMQuestion 1: Dr. Hawkes is Cool A: True B: True
Tammie Munsen11/27/20019:08:46 PMand the answer is...
Tricia Neugebauer11/27/20019:08:52 PMsay did Mark did you ever say anything about the software/website eval yet??
Sandy Krage11/27/20019:08:52 PMRight, Marcia.
Lisa Tolliver11/27/20019:08:52 PMgood idea Bruce L.
Bruce Long11/27/20019:08:52 PMAgreed Marcia
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20019:08:57 PMTrue
Paulette Mangold11/27/20019:08:57 PMA. true
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:09:05 PMI like that question Bruce I like Paulette;s answer,
Tricia Neugebauer11/27/20019:09:08 PMnow you're thinking bruce...I can kiss up with the best of them!!
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:09:19 PMBut, I've been uncool too and enjoyed that
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:09:32 PMThe final part essay, part MC liek the midterm
Andy Conrad11/27/20019:09:32 PMcall it power
cliff delong11/27/20019:09:34 PMmasochism in its many and varied forms...
Lisa Tolliver11/27/20019:09:38 PMjust try not to be uncool with the final
Brian O'Connor11/27/20019:09:43 PMYou've amoked before
Bruce Long11/27/20019:10:06 PMThe midterm was waved, so since the final is like it...
Sandy Krage11/27/20019:10:06 PMI've forgotten the mid-term, it was so long ago.
Sandy Krage11/27/20019:10:21 PMno wonder I forgot.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:10:24 PMI'll try, I'll give you more information on the evaluation plan critique and the final soon.
Sandy Krage11/27/20019:10:48 PMAren't we learning student centered learning?
Bruce Mastel11/27/20019:10:52 PMWill we get more feedback on our projects before they ar edue?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:10:53 PMNot a logical syllylogism???
cliff delong11/27/20019:11:04 PMIf then else
Marcia Torgrude11/27/20019:11:05 PMOnce we complete the web eval. is that it for the Eval. plan? Then we critique others?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:11:31 PMIf you want it Bruce, email me and ask me specific questions. I'm more than happy to give feedback
Sandy Krage11/27/20019:11:31 PMWe critique the other's plans?
Lisa Tolliver11/27/20019:11:39 PMMark, is there going to be a time limit on the final like there was with the midterm?
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:12:04 PMNo Sandy, we will not be doing a peer critique, you will be critiquing and actual plan
Paulette Mangold11/27/20019:12:11 PMI don't do well on time limits
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:12:19 PMYes, Lisa
Sandy Nightingale11/27/20019:12:21 PMI was wondering that, too, Lisa.
Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:12:37 PMThen I'll have to make it a reasonable limit
cliff delong11/27/20019:12:38 PM[Private to Andy Conrad] I don't do well on drugs...
Lisa Tolliver11/27/20019:13:00 PMCould you please give us more time for those of us who are slow readers, or need to read the question a couple of times to digest it?

Mark Hawkes11/27/20019:14:39 PMI don't give you specific criteria, but the criteria are fairly accessible. Get the evaluation plans off your desk and the other projects will come together.
