Mandy:it's ok Christine:no problem Melanie:it's ok Stephanie Hicklin:i think everything is fine now Stephanie Hicklin:so glad y'all are still here! Stephanie Hicklin:so are we good with the powerpoint and screencast? Mandy:yea i think they were both great Christine:look good to me Melanie:I was hoping the power point was fine. There were never any specifications for it Christine:i added a link to the summary results to the eval page Stephanie Hicklin:I know what you mean, same thing for the screencast Stephanie Hicklin:ok, thanks! Christine:i have 2 interviews this week with folks about the book..then a class is going to use it while i observe Mandy:thats great christine Stephanie Hicklin:that's great Stephanie Hicklin:i got some feedback that we may want to consider about the dev delay part Melanie:cool. i haven't been able to get anyone to look at it on my end Stephanie Hicklin:two people told me that we need to make sure we use words like, "may, can, could" instead of "will." Does that make sense? Because delays can be so different and in different areas Christine:it does Stephanie Hicklin:like on our intro page, i changed dev delay kids have social problems, but not all do, so I changed it to may Melanie:ah that makes sense Mandy:oooooh ok Mandy:thanks Stephanie Hicklin:i think i changed it in all the text on the wiki, but not in any of the surveys, ppts, etc. If it was even there...not sure Christine:with the surveys it would be too late Mandy:Christine, for the summary on the evaluation page, I think Dr. wissick wanted like a paragraph in our words of the results we got Christine:I can add that as well Stephanie Hicklin:ok, we could just say that was some of the formative results we got from the survey... Mandy:ok thanks! that's the way I took the directions at least....??? Christine:works for me..i will take care of it when we finish here Stephanie Hicklin:i say that mainly because i know Dr. Wissick's main area is spec ed and I think she would probably pick up on that quickly Mandy:Maybe we should add a section for summative evaluation on the wiki.....or split the page up into two section....formative nad summative Christine:I was thinking that to...too much for one page Stephanie Hicklin:I think that is very good Stephanie Hicklin:we have lots of formative info that we have gotten from different people. We have a lot from Dr. Wissick. Mandy:ok I'll add a page for summative (that would be actually watching a class in action with the book right?) Christine:wouldn't that still be formative Mandy:not sure....what would be summative? Stephanie Hicklin:Yes, if Christine could count their responses to the assessment at the end...maybe Christine:summary of all the surveys, interviews and observation...summative Christine:right? Mandy:no i think its a measurable outcome Christine:ok...so surveys and interviews - summ observation - format Stephanie Hicklin:ok, i think you are right. i am going to pull up that chart again real quick Mandy:haha that would help! Christine:ok...flip what I just said...lol Mandy:So for Summative we can just use results from the review at the end of the book and the assessment game Melanie:right Christine:along with the observation Mandy:like a summary of how the class did with those activities Stephanie Hicklin:so in the observation, would you be taking notes of how many the students got right or wrong? Stephanie Hicklin:so that it was measurable? Christine:yes, plus the interaction with the story Mandy:i dont think it has to be specific Stephanie Hicklin:ok, sounds good Mandy:like if its a big class maybe we could say like almost half the students could recall objects Christine:exactly....the class has 16 students Christine:it is actually an inclusion class of k/1 students Christine:some esol, some sped Mandy:that will be great then Mandy:other than finishing up the evaluations, we only have the final report left! We only have 2 1/2 weeks to finish it! Stephanie Hicklin:ok, so where are we with the report? Christine:sems flew by Stephanie Hicklin:I want to add to it, but don't know what everyone else is working on? Melanie:Didn't we talk about taking parts of it to work on last week/ Mandy:If you guys can all do like one section this week and email it to me i can insert it, and then we can all do one next week as well....hopefully that will be it Stephanie Hicklin:yes, but i can't remember if we assigned? Mandy:Just put your name on the final report outline of the section you want to work on so someone else isnt workinng on the same one Stephanie Hicklin:ok, that make sense Mandy:i think it would be better if we just picked what we wanted at least for this week....as long as everyone does a section Mandy:then email me and ill proofread and insert it Stephanie Hicklin:ok Mandy:does that make sense? Stephanie Hicklin:yes Christine:i will take eval and keys decisions Melanie:I'll do the analysis parts if you want me to Mandy:ok just type your name in so i dont forget!!!! Stephanie Hicklin:just copied this from the wiki Mandy:there is an explanation under each section that Dr. Wissick wrote for us to go by Melanie:That is very helpful for this process Mandy:yea b/c it's such a big report Stephanie Hicklin:ok, i read the template. i think once we just get in there and do it, it won't be too bad Stephanie Hicklin:thanks for getting us started Mandy Mandy:it's really not if we split it up between us...you're welcome Christine:i am now down for all under eval Mandy:ok thanks christine Stephanie Hicklin:Ok, I will take design and Development Melanie:I put myself in for analysis Stephanie Hicklin:and i need to read the descriptions under the others before i commit Christine:I will send it all out this week, everyone just critique and I will adjust Mandy:sounds good! Mandy:i think that's it for tonight then Stephanie Hicklin:Ok, so when we get off here I am going to go ahead and submit the screencast Stephanie Hicklin:y'all don't see anything I need to fix, right? Christine:nope Melanie:Do I need to submit the power point too? Or will she access it from the wiki? Stephanie Hicklin:Ok, i hope 9 minutes isn't too long... Stephanie Hicklin:um, i wondered the same thing Stephanie Hicklin:maybe we don't need to actually submit it Mandy:i think you just have to put it on the wiki Stephanie Hicklin:ok, Melanie:i think so to. She has been checking our wiki periodically Stephanie Hicklin:weren't y'all so honored when she asked to use our stuff for next semester??? Melanie:yea that was cool Mandy:yea :) Christine:i think that was really great Melanie:Alrighty ladies, unless you need anything else from me, I'm going to say good night Stephanie Hicklin:ok, good night! Christine:nite Mandy:good night....stephanie will you email me the chat and ill put it on the wiki Stephanie Hicklin:yep! Mandy:ok thanks
