 * Gearing up for the distribution of netbooks**
 * How will the netbooks be distributed? **Checked out through the library.**
 * If you do not have a library tech, who will be responsible for ensuring the netbooks are checked out via Destiny?
 * Where will the netbooks be distributed? **Cary will take 6th graders to the library to check them out.**
 * Will a copy of student IDs be placed in the bags? How will this happen? (Will copies of student ID's be ordered from the company?) **Yes / Dina will order.**
 * Who will place the netbooks and power cords in the computer bags for distribution (to be delivered to your site on date TBD)? **Mouse Squad as directed by Cary.**
 * Will your site be putting the power cords in Destiny? (This can be done via the barcode already on them.) **No (They will be considered part of the computer package / unit and must be turned in with computer, but will not be tracked separately).**
 * What netbooks will you be using as loaner netbooks (w/ loaner written on them) for students to use if their netbooks are being repaired? Where will these be housed? **Loaners will be checked in/out through the library. We will need to draft a policy about loaner procedures.**
 * Where will you be getting the netbooks for rooms where the teacher teaches 7th or 8th grade sections (and the 6th graders will be taking the class set home)? **We will be using extra netbooks from MS carts (5 each) and the cart from Room 14 (25) for 6th grade distribution. Middle school teachers will keep a cart with 30 (or max class size) in their rooms for 7 & 8th graders. Loaners will be stored in the library (15).**

**Home/School Connection**
 * When will you have parent nights? How many will you have? **Open House: 6th grade parents will be asked to stay afterwards for LOGO info / to sign paperwork.**
 * When will parents sign the netbook loan agreements? **Open House**
 * How will you introduce Parent Connect/Student Connect? **Open House if agenda allows / may need a different night for parents. Cary will teach students to use Student Connect. Zangle grades will need to be updated bimonthly. Moodle should also be demonstrated / used by all MS teachers. Add to staff handbook for MS teachers.**
 * What is your plan for students whose parents do not want the responsibility of a netbook? **They can use netbook in class / will not be issued a netbook through the library.**

**Procedures**
 * What is the process for having a netbook repaired? What role does Mouse Squad play?
 * Will Mouse Squad or your whole site be utilizing the in-house help ticket creation tool?
 * What do students do during lunch, PE, etc. with netbooks? **Backpacks in the class; for lunch they should drop off for their Period 5 class. For PE students will take to the prep teacher for that period.**
 * How will your classrooms accommodate charging stations (6 powerstrips per room will be provided)? **Each class will be arranged to accommodate 30 students / power strips (in a fire safe manner). Will need duct tape.**

**Training and Professional Development**
 * What does PD look like for your LOGO teachers (PBL, backwards design, PD separate from other staff members? Short days? by Content? How often?) Is PD for your LOGO teachers on your yearly calendar? **Ideally our MS teachers will join other school's (Mann) PD by content area; MS teachers will be released for that. MS teachers will need time to explore digital tools / prep digital lessons.**
 * How will your site set up the expectations for netbook use with students? **District & MS School Computer Use Policy will be taught / signed in Cary's class. Each teacher may specify certain expectations / consequences in their class.**
 * How will you ensure that your site is meeting the requirements of the law that pertains to internet safety, cyberbullying, and copyright? How will teachers infuse this into their curriculum. (Kick-off assembly? Suggested curriculum?) For more info see [] (enrollment key = i21teacher) **Cary will teach the CyberSafety lessons provided by ICAC. 7 & 8 will have a review.**
 * How will students be trained to switch from 3G to wireless? **In Cary's class.**
 * How will students be trained on printing procedures? (Choosing the correct printer and only hitting print once) **In Cary's class.**
 * How will teachers be trained to use Zangle rosters with Lanschool? Will Mouse Squad help with keeping the Lanschool lists up to date?
