5.+Proposal

Team Tony Forgot Home Page 5. **Proposal** How will we do this? We are planning the following pieces of the projects in phases.
 * As a group, be active participants in the SAU16 AUP/RUP committee.
 * **Create a presentation** that can be shown as part of a **New AUP Discussion** with school boards, other teachers, and parents that will inform them about 21st Century Learning and Web 2.0. (A "Did You Know" kind of thing.)
 * Present video to school boards, colleagues, and parents.

 * Part One**: Actively participate in creation of new Responsible Use Policy. The following video poignantly demonstrates the restrictive nature of our current AUP.


 * Part Two:** The following steps were taken to create video // Responsible Use Policy: 21st Century Literacies for 21st Century Learners // that will be presented to SAU16 District school boards, teachers, and parents to promote the new Responsible Use Policy and 21st Century Literacies.

Step One: The following questions were emailed to fellow PLP members from the SAU16 district. 1. What does the new RUP mean for you? your students and/or your classroom studies? 2. What does it mean to our teachers, students, and school community. - we can ask our fellow PLPers to reflect on what they see as the possibilities with the adoption of this Responsible Use Policy. They can speak to their PLP projects, or the web2.0 tools they will be able to use.
 * QUESTIONS:**

Step Two: The team decided to post the following forum discussion thread to seek input from the entire PLP four state cohort. We are putting together a video to support the revision to our AUP and are trying to inform our SAU 16 community (school boards, teachers, students, administrators). We would like some input from our fellow PLP'ers! What would the adoption of a less restrictive AUP mean to you as a teacher in 3 words?
 * Forum: 21st Learning in Three Words . . .**

Step Three: Taking into consideration the limited number of responses the team received to the questions posed above, the team decided to focus on our students' reactions to and their understandings of what the new RUP might mean to their learning. Video/ Students -- worked with students from Ashley Page's and Steve Gagnon's class to create video. Students were asked what Web2.0 tools mean to them and to their learning.

Song: Students in Steve Gagnon's class were asked to create lyrics to the tune of the Jackson Five's song //ABC.// The lyrics will emphasize the benefits of the new RUP. Allison Bzdafka's students will be taped singing the song.
