[MLTI-MS] 2007 Principal Leadership Workshop Registration - Reminder

[Jeff Mao]

**This is a another reminder,...if you have already registered, you  
do not need to register again! Thanks**

Dear Principals,

Begin the 2007 year with MLTI. As promised, we have established nine  
regional principal workshops to support your leadership in schools  
that “learn with technology rather than learn about technology”.  
Please bring your MLTI laptop.

Agenda items:
• Reflections on implementation of the new tools (NoteShare) and the  
MLTI Roadmap of Continuous Improvement Towards a 21st Century School.

• Introduction to Studywiz — Studywiz is a virtual, collaborative  
learning environment for schools, designed to make eLearning  
intuitive and practical for teachers, students and parents. This  
exciting resource is free to all MLTI schools so we want principals  
to understand the power and the uses of this environment. Knowing  
about the online system will help principals determine the school  
leadership team that will participate in the two-day Studywiz training.

• Research Results from your school — Dr. David Silvernail and staff  
have early data about your 7th grade students. We will distribute  
your school data at these meetings and provide you with strategies  
for increasing student skills in the areas of information,  
communication and technology literacy. Further information will be  
provided in another email.

• Universal Design for Learning — We have been awarded UNUM funds to  
continue working with schools in learning strategies for Universal  
Design. Schools may apply to have professional development brought to  
your school site. Principals will understand the federally mandated  
expectations along with the many resources available for your staff.

• Literacy and Numeracy updates — These updates will include new  
resources for your staff and professional development opportunities  
that will be available for your staff.
