What about the idea of afterschool computer club? Can we require 10 hours of community service? Open support sessions with Parents on Saturdays? Can we get a listserv for parents? WP POP or IMAP? Tom Kim is checking on it for us. gmail or phillyhsc.org or earthlink.ne? Need to coordinate the creation of bookmarks that align with the parent trainings and then make sure that they are imaged onto the computers Survey through survey monkey? Can we setup a PLA site at Sheppard? Is there an Internet safety component? Can we find money to pay for flash drives and Saturdays

WP needs 10 days from list of students to delivery of accounts general procedure is to use flash drives instead of printers, but can we print to school printers from home No money in budget for food. Evaluation is being done by Penn State and Robin is the contact. Work on benchmarks, evaluation forms and expectations Teachers must be involved to insure that computers are used We need relavent educational software for students to get them aclimated to coming home and using the comptuer.
