==You're here to be a part of our new EMS Faculty WikiSpace. This is a place where we can collaborate about what's occurring technologically in our classrooms, what needs to occur technologically in our classrooms, and our dreams in the area of technology and instruction for the students of EMS.==

==Our primary purpose for this WikiSpace is to examine our campus' technology goals and determine ways to meet those goals. Based on our results from our campus STaR charts over the last four years, our lowest areas are in T//eaching and Learning// as well as in the area of //Educator Preparation and Development//.==

Through the platform of a Wiki, we can discuss and collaborate 24/7. Our first question to address is:
====** //In order to address the weaknesses of our campus STaR Chart data ("Teaching and Learning" and "Educator Preparation and Development"), what types of activities do you feel we need to implement in order to bring us from the "developing tech" level into the "advanced tech" level?// **====


 * ==If you proceed to the "Discussion" page, you will see this question I've posed for you to consider. Simply type your response in the comment box and click "post."==


 * ==Next, click on the link to the right titled, "What Do WE Need to Learn?" On this page, you will find a video to view as well as a proposed agenda for us to follow in order to move forward in our vision for technology at EMS.==

==Eventually, I believe we will all find this Wiki to be a powerful collaboration and communication tool where we can freely add our own questions and discussions relevant to Eldorado Middle School. Also, below, you will find an informational video regarding wikis. Let me know if you have any questions after viewing the video. I'll be happy to help!==
