=__Training Schedule__=

The first step in your training is to complete the online modules on Promethean's website. Each of you will be required to complete the first level of training no later than. When your training is completed, you will need to send me your completion certificate through county mail. Without this, you will not be ready for our next training session. Basic uses of the white board will be reviewed, but not covered in detail.

__Part I__

 * 1) Go to [|Promethean Planet teacher portal] and create a user account. Please write down your username and password and keep it in a safe place. You will need this to take advantage of the resources and training offered on this website.
 * 2) Now go to the [|Promethean Learning portal>]
 * 3) If your user name and password do not work, you may need to create one specifically for this portal. Once you do, log in.
 * 4) Under Promethean Learning Courses find the one labeled : **Level 1 - Foundation Skills Course - FREE**
 * 5) At the bottom of the description it says "**click here**". Click that link. Then select **Activ Studio** on the next page.
 * 6) Select the first course : **[|Activstudio Level 1 Foundation Skills course]**
 * 7) There are 10 topics and 4 assessments that you have to complete. All assessments must be passed with a score of 100 in order to receive your certificate.
 * 8) When you have completed them, send me a copy of the certificate through county mail.
 * 9) Please have this training completed and your certificate to me by __**November 16, 2007**__. When I receive your certificate, I will post your name here.

__Part I: PLU Credit__
For the online training you WILL receive hours toward a PLU. I am going through the same online course as you are and the number of hours you will be awarded will be adjusted, but based on how long it takes me to get through the modules. For example, For Topics 1, 2, and Assessment 1 it took me almost 45 minutes, but ten minutes will most likely be added to that total.

It will be very helpful if you can use your software to recreate what the tutorial is showing while you are working.

__Part II__
The second phase of the training will be administered by the UGA ETTC. The course will be delivered in the PDC computer lab and will most likely be broken down into three or four sessions totaling 10 hours for 1PLU. In order to minimize the loss of instructional time, the first class will begin in the afternoon and run from 1:30 to 4:30.


 * First Training Date: Monday, November 26, 2007 1:30 - 4:30** Please bring materials to take notes with as well as curriculum material should there be time to create a lesson during the class time.

Additional training dates will be posted here for your convenience and discussed at the first training date.
