 * Kathy and Leslie – here is a draft outline of the major tasks that Kev and I put together today. The timeline goes backward so we can see the sequence of events that need to happen in sequential order leading up to conclusion. Some of the activities would actually start earlier but are listed here by the time they need to be completed.

Also, I have some ideas about reaching out to the Instructional Design Program at UMass/Boston. They might be able to help us with work space and designing the on-line component of Part II (the P&D). __ AFT Innovation Grant Timeline __ Draft __ Fall 2011 __ · Run Part II P&D for teachers with emphasis on new teachers and teachers from turn around schools. · Purchase projectors for participants of Part II. · Recruit teachers to participate in Part II P&D. · Put PPT lessons on-line (Conclusion of Part I). · Videotape designers delivering lessons

__ Spring 2011 __ · Design p/d for lesson designers (design curriculum academy) · Address copyright questions

__ Winter 2011 __ · Interview and hire lesson Designers (the 8-12 expert teachers who will design and create the actual lessons). This would probably run into Spring, but needs to be started by Jan. or Feb. · Create performance agreements for lesson Designers (i.e. job descriptions). · Create pay structure for Designers and teachers who participate in P/D.
