Friends, the above link is for the Hope Scholarship. I went to it and it says "Closed" until June 1. After that you can reapply to help pay for the summer semester. Scroll almost all the way down where it says, "Application Process".
Fill it out and take it to the 3rd floor of the ed building after it's noterized.
Hi Everyone, The deadline for your graduation (Fall 2008 in December) is June 1st. Now that the semester is over, take a minute to go to the link below and fill out the forms and pay your $40.00. See you soon, Diane and Team
According to the application, the deadline has already passed...it was January 10th! What can we do?
The deadline is June 1. We are set to graduate in December according to our schedule.
What happens if some of us already filled out the summer application and had it in on time?
Can we still graduate in the summer (August)?

Ode to the Cohort.doc Just a little ditty I thought you might enjoy. The rap we heard Saturday inspired me! Feel free to add to it!
I have now created a place for you to turn in the last part of your Critical Child Project on uLearn. Hope all is well with everyone.

Capstone Meeting Date
As discussed in class, we have chosen June 2, 2008 from 4-7PM as our meeting date. Keep in mind that future meetings may be planned as needed with individuals or small groups depending on the nature of your capstone project. I will get an update from you on April 24th. The capstone period officially ends on July 26th 2008. Thus, all capstones will need to be completed by July 18th to ensure enough time for grading. I will provide you with an official syllabus when we meet on April 24th.

INFORMATION ABOUT POSTER PRESENTATIONS:
For examples of poster presentations and pointers, see the following websites:

(Note: I found these by googling "poster presentation research")
Here are some tips from the COE's Information Technology Lab (on the 2nd floor of the COE): http://itc.gsu.edu/poster_PowerPoint.htm
(I think these tips are good for the IS&T service. As you read this information, you'll begin to think that the COE-ITS can print your poster, but it's my understanding that they don't do that much anymore...and they refer out to IS&T)
To get a poster printed at GSU's IS&T Digital Media Lab
(You don't have to do this. You could make your own or get one printed elsewhere...this is just for those of you who want to do it this way)
Step 1: Create a PowerPoint slide show --imagine them in a matrix (so 9, 12, 15, 16...any of those combinations will do because they'll just be placed in a matrix on the poster). Be sure to number your slides so the reader of your poster knows what direction to read.
Step 2: Email the PowerPoint to GSU's lab at OR walk it to the lab in the basement of Classroom South (on the same side of the road as the College of Ed on Decatur St, near the library). You'll need to tell them: your name, how big you want the poster (I suggest something around 30"x40"--but there's no set standard), when you need it, an email address, and as many phone numbers as you have. If you don't hear back from them right away, call to follow up. Get a name of someone who's handling it for you.
Their email is: opropr@langate.gsu.edu
Phone: 404-413-4413
(NOTE: They're only open during the week)
Step 3: Pick up your poster at the lab in the basement of the Classroom South building and be ready to pay (about $40-65 depending on the size of your poster.)
Step 4: Flaunt your poster at the Conference (HOORAY!)
Hope that helps,
Caitlin

Hello all,
I wanted to let you know something incredible that happened at my school yesterday and I consider it an accomplishment by us all.
On Wednesday, the staff received an email that we were going to have a cross-level meeting and our grade was to meet with 1st grade with various support staff also included (this is approximately 40 so we broke up into two groups). I was very skeptical since the questions were pre-established and administration were going to be circultating to "observe".
As I expected, the discussion were controlled/observed, there were no protocols used and the meetings lacked a great deal of "shared vision". But, I felt like it was an opportunity we just couldn't let slip by. After the 30 minute meeting, I went back to my room and sent an email to everyone at our meeting(s). Basically it said that I was interested in meeting once a month on a volunteer basis to continue to talk - that I would like to build a community of teachers interested collaborating for student learning. (If nothing else, I have learned the correct terminology, yes?)
By the end of the day I had 14 responses to my email and 3 more word of mouths! I don't even know if I have to have permission from admin to do this but I guess we can meet at a Starbucks if its not approvable :) I can guarantee you that had we not just had our last class the evening before, dicussing this very topic in a critical and empowering way, I would not have done this. I want to thank you all for being my compass, I feel like there will be 25 angels with me all the way!
