1.+Purpose

In the Average Elementary School, teachers are feeling overwhelmed with the ever growing demands of modern education and overworked with the meeting required by their schools. Collaboration and observation are the cornerstones of development and honing the teaching craft, but teachers feel overworked and stressed. As a solution, I have been asked to design a yearlong two meeting a month course to implement the ANGEL Learning Management Suite. This suite contains many teaching and learning tools which would enable efficient and effective development, delivery and management of courses, course content and learning outcomes. The suite also offers engaging communication and collaboration capabilities which will enhance instruction and allow teachers to observe one and other without interrupting the other class or leaving their classroom. The target audience will be Principals, Teachers, Para-professionals and Office staff. They are an equal mix of male and female professionals in their mid-twenties to early forties. Most are open to utilizing technology in their classrooms and office to facilitate communication among and between teams, groups and individuals. Even though, most are open to utilizing this technology, only a third of the population utilizes social networking, blogs, and other technologies in their personal lives.
