Technology Meeting

Today I went to the Elementary Technology Representative Meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to update the representatives so we can go back to our staff and update them about what is happening in specific curricular areas in the district. In Technology, they are currently piloting a new student information system called, "Genesis". It is a web-based program that will include attendance, a grading program, and the online district-wide report card. I wonder which grading program they will use. I don't want to teach my staff the one I bought and then have them learn something different in a year or two. I will need to speak with the Technology Curriculum Leader to see which grading program they will use. I wonder how my staff will take the news of this soon-to-be required change.
