PPDP

Personal Professional Development Plan (PPDP) This PPDP is an agreement between Jennifer Haun and Arts Educator 2.0. The purpose of this Personal Professional Development Plan is to construct professional development goals for the Arts Educator 2.0 Project participants in a collaborative and meaningful way. Progress towards the following goals is the responsibility of the participant, with assistance provided by Leslie Gates. The successful completion of the goals outlined below will result in 5 CPE credits awarded by the PA Department of Education. A final evaluation of progress will be conducted by: grant co-directors, grant partners, and the grant evaluator in consultation with the participant's mentor. In order to meet this goal, the following steps will be taken: Webinar Notes
 * Goal #1: Develop a standards-aligned unit of study with rich, compelling content for future implementation in your classroom (Provided by ArtsEducator2.0). **
 * I will participate in 7 webinars that deliver content related to writing the unit of study;
 * I will participate in 5 face to face meetings at the IU1 where I will have time to interact and collaborate with other teachers about the content and technologies relevant to unit writing;
 * I will work with my mentor and collaborate with other grant participants to draft the unit in stages as content is delivered and discussed. Upon completion of the unit, I will submit the unit for review;
 * I will complete any necessary revisions of the unit and resubmit by June 30, 2009.

Progress will be documented in the following ways: Although I have experimented with Google Docs to draft my unit plan and create presentations, I have found it easier to type my unit plan directly onto my wiki page. I have had several Skype meetings with my mentor as well as communication through email, telephone, a meeting at my school, and a meeting at Panera Bread to discuss my unit plan. Goal #1 will be assessed in the following ways: > In order to meet this goal, the following steps will be taken: Progress will be documented in the following ways: I have been reading and taking notes from the book __Visual Arts Units for all Levels__. By reading the chapters in this book and experimenting on my own, I have accomplished the following things: media type="custom" key="3752191" 10.

 * I will draft the unit using Google Docs that will be shared among participants with which I am collaborating as well as my mentor;
 * I will be accountable to deadlines that coincide with the face-to-face meetings at the IU1;
 * I will save/record necessary communication between me and my mentor or other grant personnel regarding my unit writing progress.
 * My unit of study will be reviewed by a team of grant personnel including the co-directors, evaluator, and representatives from grant partners;
 * The team will assess the proficiency of my unit using a rubric that was explained to me at the beginning of the AE2.0 Project. The rubric will be used to determine if my unit is Advanced, Proficient, Basic, or Below Basic.
 * Goal #2: Explore potential methods of integrating *technology into existing lessons to enhance student learning. **
 * Read books related to technology integration:
 * Consider the best purchases/ needs assessment;
 * Explore ways to fund technology purchases (fundraisers, grants, etc.);
 * Incorporate new knowledge into existing lesson/ unit plans;
 * Consider developing new lessons that utilize new technology.
 * I will provide notes about technology integration;
 * 1) Scan documents and photos and import them into Picasa 3.
 * 2) Save photos and documents and create slideshows using Picasa 3.media type="custom" key="3745277"
