__**6/15**__ Skype Meeting Members Present: Jill, Julie, Krista, Kirsten, and Bill

Discussion points:


 * Not completing the project, but more of this is what we are going to do-like an action plan looking for teacher feedback before they go on
 * mm project that we are developing-product is the proposal-based on challenge, not guiding activities, result of the challenge
 * guiding activities were where we got the info, just refer to them as that
 * mm proposal project based on the challenge-
 * action plan-video, audio, text, images, etc. are an exercise to work in the collaborative process
 * each of us send a list of "this is what I have done", we each submit, we can work on it together, but each submit, can communicate to the teacher privately about their contributions and how they feel about what she has done
 * group collaboration, individual responsibility
 * we choose VT, we each contribute
 * video about what we are going to do
 * select relevant video clip to include or introductory clip to set the stage "we will be using this clip for...or create a clip
 * apple challenge-explained the project and what our big idea is, etc., through slides or video
 * how does our proposed action plan relate to the guiding activities before
 * tie it all in and why this plan is viable, makes sense, and fits
 * milestone piece to get feedback and redirection before students would actually implement
 * contribution piece-google doc, put 4 bulleted lists in the same doc, then copy/paste into moodle our part or the entire thing and individually include personal comments: frustrations, celebrations, etc.
 * vehicle could be the wiki itself, with the projects embedded in it
 * content is what will help guide the project and what tool we feel comfortable with
 * help@wikispaces.com

So...Glogster could be our vehicle We will choose polar bear as our endangered animal. How do we propose that we are going to solve our challenge Glogster-incorporating the video, text, audio, images to show how we are going to solve the challenge how we are going to solve our problem

Discussion:
 * Tried to figure out how to add people to our ongoing conference call-can't find the add people button. :)
 * I still saw unknown numbers, not people
 * ? Submitting URLs- all of us or 1 of us?
 * 1 of us submit URL for the wiki in Moodle-Julie has done this, Bill saw it
 * Kirsten added Bill to the wiki and google doc: bill@doltonroad.com-use this addy for everything to add him to
 * Annotated Bibliography-collect on diigo as a group, it dn put the resources in the correct APA form, create a GDoc for the biblio for the resources we actually use, very brief
 * this week: we will not have that done,
 * put one entry in for the annotated biblio to place hold it
 * He has issues with the sample project page, don't emulate that one-pros and cons to exemplars: cons: replication-avoid it,
 * Glogster or even the wiki for the mm piece: VT, video, wix
 * iswifter-work around for ipad and flash-games genre sets up browser for Flash-modest if any fee

Guiding act are not step by step guide, solution is not predefined. These guiding act will help diff instruction-bckgrnd knowledge, exp, understanding, mult intel-do not exhaust all lead up work in these 4 activities. Shd each act answer a diff essential ? They are more guiding ? than -news forum, big ideas and essential questions doc embedded there*
 * Weeks 5, 6: switch gears, take a diff role, approach as a student group, already gone thru the guiding activities and are ready to address the challenge as a student group. Come up with a proposal of how we would implement-we are not- and solve the question
 * Keep general concepts of PBL and limitations and student independence
