[|IPI-Instructional Practices Inventory-][| Link to trainings by Dr. Valentine] Dr. Valentine's response to my email: Hi Nick…I am attaching a list of the locations where IPI Workshops will be held this fall (at least the ones I will be doing). Depending on where you colleagues are located, there will also be some IPI workshops in Illinois, but I do not yet have locations from the Illinois trainers. However, if feasible, I would encourage you to suggest to them that they attend one of the workshops listed on the attached, as I will be doing those sessions and some of my trainers in IL are just getting started. They can contact the sponsoring agency for the public workshops if they want to participate in an existing workshop or me directly if they are interested in doing a workshop for their district or school.

Boot camp link This is what I use when I do tools training for administrators. I'd be happy to cover any of these tools when I come out, or even over the phone.

Technology Leadership training
I've given you some very short descriptions about the 3 days that may be most applicable to you. Feel free to look through each of those days and borrow any resources that you would like to use. Some of the slides from the phase 1 day 1 ppt may be good things to use at your opening session.

//__**2009-2010 Workshops**__ //
 * Phase 1, Day 1 This day is our big picture day. We really hammer on how the world has changed, but schools have not kept up.
 * Phase 1, Day 2 This day focuses on the things administrators should be looking for and talking about with their teachers.
 * Phase 1, Day 3 The morning session focuses on acceptable use policies. Do your policies get in the way of learning? The afternoon is very futuristic. What are some things on the horizon for education?

· Paired & group activities which would allow kids w/laptops to have the hands-on roll · Jigsaw projects which were flexible to different learning styles · Project-based activities w/choice of tools · Online Web 2.0 activities which permit kids to work during or outside of class · Having carts or a handful of netbooks or old laptops w/wireless capability in the library available to supplement · Language classes – paired recording (sharing a microphone is better than sharing a whole computer) Depending on the school’s policies, devices like iPods and cell phones can really come in handy as well
 * Potential ways to work with mixed classes**
