•ePub for Education - A Look Behind the Veil: The ePub standard has leveled the publishing playing field and created one of the most exciting educational opportunities for schools looking to add mobility tools to their school learning environments. Join us for this session where we will identify what the ePub standard is, understand how it can be used in your learning environment, and then take the time to look behind the veil at the component parts that comprise an ePub file. We will also take the time to discuss tools and strategies that can be employed to use ePub files in your own school system.

•Developing an iPad Teacher Evaluation Solution for your District: There is national demand, with coinciding state policy, to improve ways of conducting teacher evaluations. Principals and department heads need better tools to capture data from multiple sources for review, and that is where the iPad comes into play. Kelley Gangi, Curriculum Supervisor for Wachusett Regional School District, and Barry Sclar, Supervisor for Information Services for WRSD,began searching for appropriate tools, but ultimately decided the current offerings were not customizable to the locally determined policy emerging around teacher evaluation. Working with Clear Pond Technologies, they began designing a solution that makes use of the iPad and can be tailored to fit the evaluation system for any school district.
