Notes from 3/27 meeting

Since this is just a pilot and we don't have funds or the time for selecting a hosting site, we decided to go with a freebie service.

Pbwiki site was OK as far creating web pages but, had difficulty uploading files, small storage area 10Mb. Great for collaborative creation of projects. But, not what we are looking for

Zoho site would be too difficult for students to learn to manipulate. Another great platform for collaborative projects, but not the best for an ePortfolio.

Google pages looks like it has the easy of use, functionality and probably just as important, name recognition and longevity. Google will be around for a while. Zoho or Pbwiki???

Next assigment will be to create a set of guidelines for students to use in order to complete assingmnet properly. In order to set the guidelines we thought we should first create a rubric to use. Once we establish a rubric we can reverse engineer the guidelines\instructions for the students.

Note: keep in mind that the rubric should match up with the core competencies.

Next meeting will be April 10 @ 11:00 am.
