Hi Everyone

Couple updates this morning:

1.   Staffing Update: The two instructional design positions (temporary / 1-year) we had requested have been approved, and the positions are currently being advertised.   If you know of anyone who is qualified and would be a good fit for our team, please refer them to the LC HR website.

2. EdMedia Conference - World Conference on Educational Media and Technology.   Andy, Trudi, Alison and Jackie are off to this conference in Victoria this week.   We'll find some time for some conversations when they are back so we can tap into what they learned at the conference.  

3. I'm still working on the process and documentation around the Professional Growth Plans.   You can expect something more concrete by mid-week.  

4. Tablets for EET Staff:   We will have a few tablets available for EET staff, and we are asking that proposals for the tablet be integrated with your Professional Growth Plans.   More detail on this will be included with the documentation around the PGP's you'll have by mid-week.  We need to make sure that the people supporting the 21st Century Teaching and Learning projects have the tools they need.

5.  Work Spaces:  Several people have brought forward suggestions related to work spaces within EET.   Watch for a separate message on this one later this week.

5.  We have a smaller group working on a Communication plan.   More updates on this as we get further along.

Finally, I'm off campus today and Thursday but will be checking email / phone both days.
