Course Follow-up and Support: Launching the School-wide Initiative

Monthly team meeting by conference call – 9 hours
Within the technical assistance plan, a monthly, hour-long conference call will be scheduled using Academic Innovations’ conference calling capacity. All course instructors, along with administrators directly involved with the project, will be in attendance.  It is suggested that this recurring conference call is scheduled for the same time on the same day (e.g., the first Thursday of the month at 3:00 PM) for efficiency.  Academic Innovations will look into other options, such as online chats and webinars.

Three on-site, one-day visitations (the minimum)

  • 1-day (during first semester)
    • Morning: My10yearPlan.com® hands-on workshop
    • Afternoon:  School-wide motivational orientation – What is a 10-year plan and why is it important for every student to have and use?
  • 1-day (after first semester)
    • Morning: Course instructors’ team meeting
    • Afternoon: School-wide meeting - Advisories/academic coaching using the 10-year plan

    • Morning: Team wrap-up and assessment using new data website
    • Afternoon: Whole-school meeting – Updating the 10-year plan in grades 10, 11, and 12

During the morning, the TAC will work with the instructional team of the Career Choices course, providing professional development/workshops as outlined above.

In the afternoon they will conduct or assist the lead teacher in conducting the three school-wide meetings outlined above.  It is critical at this point to bring the entire school into the project so that it is ready to launch the school-wide initiative.
