I know of RSU 12, Lewiston, RSU 74, but can’t remember the rest? I’m going to be getting a small committee together to try to visit some of these sites to learn more about these systems in prep for LD 1858 work. TAKING…[Read more]

I would be very curious to see what your thoughts are regarding necessary changes to teacher contracts to appropriately model the Mass Customized Learning approach – that too is something RSU 3 needs to tackle! Sounds like a great “forum” for discussion at a coming MCCL meeting – maybe we can get others to share their work too so…[Read more]

Hi Heather. Your plan sounds like the right way to go. It’s hard to generate a sense of urgency, given the timeline and the uncertainty regarding details. On the other hand, if one simply waits for another year to pass, there may not be enough time to make changes and get support of the new system.

Hello Heather,
I plan to use a similar strategy and get folks together to discuss ideas that will likely impact our evaluation system. I do think working with folks will be best but I know there is a group working on this topic and they have to at least identify some component examples prior to September. This should help all of us with some…[Read more]
