Fall Follow-Up

As Pat and I have indicated in prior email contact, our WV Coal Project fall follow-up is scheduled for Wednesday, September 14 at the Cabell County Central Office from 4 - 6 pm. At that time, we will distribute CD copies of all the unit plans that have been submitted. If you do not see your unit plans posted to the project blog, please notify me so we can add your contributions to the body of knowledge that we have created.

We are very interested in how you will be implementing your coal units in your classroom. You will be asked to briefly (1-2 minutes) describe the major features of your unit plans. Pat plans to review procedures for posting to your blogs and cleaning up your blog entries from the summer trip. He will also go over ways to upload your photos to the shared Flickr site that he created.

Dennis has purchased some additional LabQuest probes for you to enhance the infusion of probeware into your classrooms.

Please be thinking of potential topics for the 2012 project and ways we can improve on the experiential learning initiatives that we have been doing to maximize the impact that our efforts have on the classrooms of Cabell County. As fun and enlightening as these projects have been, we must not lose sight that the goal is to bring richer experiences to the students.
