2. Overcoming barriers to collaboration Research and Develop an interactive website – a one stop shop for educators to reach cultural organizations and their education programs. Small working group has been ID’d Models exist to explore – e.g. ShowUp.com Desire for state level/state sanctioned website Need to report out back to this group, when?? Cultural organizations can also reach educators
3. Recognizing model arts ed programs Notes captured with questions, encouragement, issues and facts. Next iteration of the program draft design will be sent out for your reflection in August Prioritize and focus – start small Better define criteria – make accessible for districts (e.g. 2 art forms?) Better define reasons/incentives to participate
4. Building new ways to connect Intent of the webinars: Informational? Tie to specific opportunities Participatory? High level engagement? What have we learned? (did we?) Integrity of the art forms Build in face to face with teachers (pre? Post?) Interested in exploring? Small group ID’d to help us work on this? Funding opportunity: NEA grant, deadline March, 2012
5. Next steps Alex and Lynn will: Share all resources from today electronically Including meeting notes + Wordles By early July Do we meet again? If so, when?
