Phase+1+-+Identification+of+the+Problem

// The problem or question // // What is the problem (or opportunity) you wish to address with your project? // // Describe what you wish to change, for example, aspects of content (e.g. test scores), process (e.g. ability to collaborate), climate (e.g. morale), or increase of student directed tech use (e.g. seamless, embedded use of technology in instruction). Be as specific as possible in describing what you want to change. // // This should be a team discussion(s). //

PROBLEM:

 * ===Most Calvert teachers are using great resources and wonderful technology integration ideas but there is not an easy way to share what they are doing. ===
 * ===Some Calvert teachers find the web overwhelming to find ideas and resources. ===
 * ===Attendance at before and after school workshops can be logistically challenging. ===

SOLUTION:

 * ===Teachers need a ‘use-able,’ helpful, and engaging web space to share resources and collaborate with each other. ===
 * ===This space would be used to share resources (weblinks), “How to” tutorials, lesson plans, and technology integration ideas. ===
