Canvas Crew Leader
Each school was tasked with creating a Canvas Implementation Plan. These were due September 15, 2022. For this plan, I worked with Mr. Wallace and informed him of our Canvas training needs. I have spoken at 2 staff meetings to our teachers about the importance and reasoning for Canvas. In September, I met with our area Digital Learning Coordinators and improved our plan. Currently, I am creating materials for staff. As of July 1, 2023 Google Classroom will no longer be an option for a Learning Management System.
I will be communicating asynchronous learning opportunities In October, we will be focusing on communication through Canvas. This portion of the training should be complete by the end of next year according to the district.
Attended all day training on February 7. Attedned Canvas Cohort meetings on March 23, April 19 and May 11. This included two sessions speficially with secondary schools and one about administrative rights in Canvas.
I have offered professional development sessions on Canvas on August 18, November 10, March 24 and April 21, which included an intro level and a more advanced session/ .
Communicated with staff about various WakeLearns opportunites for more Canvas training, inlcuding the most recent Canvas Campout sessions.
Worked with MTAC to determine other Canvas champions, their strengths and willingness to help support staff for the next school year.
SGHS Digital Resource Subscription Requests 2022-2023
Created a survey for all staff to discuss and provide feedback for this year's digital resource subscriptions. This also involved meetings and communications with vendors for quotes and information.
Analyzed responses from staff and then worked with MTAC, Mr. Brewington and Ms. Matthews to renew, DeltaMath, Quizziz and GimKit. I will revisit Flocabulary's usage closer to the renewal date. Also, I researched other requests such as a IXL for high schoolers.

WakeLearns
Met with asll teachers who are renewing their licences this year to explain how many CEUs they need and in which areas. I was then able to follow up with the SPED department who needs to request External Credit for several of the required classes they take through the NC portal and we have been informed that BTs on a 3 year license do not have to fulfill the 8 CEU requirement.
