Lake City a Success


Lake City was a great Teaching and Learning Technology institute filled with eager, enthusiastic, motivated participants. They were gracious to us and complimented the MDE/FCIT staff as being most pleasant and great to work with.

The MDE's enjoyed the opportunity to share time and talents with each other.



As to the drive, well, it will be better since I will travel with a Florida map next time. Glad I had the navigation compass in the Impala as I missed the road I was to use to get to the interstate on the way home. I saw some beautiful lush countryside as a result of my south-southwest traveling to I75.

July Institutes

Lake City is next. Cuts predicted for Boca Raton. Tremendous learning opportunities at the institutes for all involved. One of the things I like best is feedback from the participants. I like the evaluation sheets USF is using after each session and the electives. If we could use a Google form or survey monkey, the info could be readily available for researcher information and for use in DOE publications.

Naples Institute


I would describe this institute as a learning experience.
As the first one of the summer, we looked at ways to revise the playbooks and agenda. The Naples area was lovely and we had a great time.

Institutes Revisited

May need to cut some MDE's for the institutes in June due to funds not available for districts to send participants. Waiting to see results of volunteering.
