To reply about technology-
Yes, we do plan to have this incorporated into sessions. It seems that this may occur in the summer professional development to allow for more flexibility in planning and working with examples. And just so everyone knows, the Math Focus Groups will be hosting a speaker from Texas Instruments at the March meeting. That meeting will be held March 18th at the Broyhill Conference Center in Boone. The session will begin at 4:45 and last about 2 hours. We will be offering renewal credits for your attendance. The speaker, Barbara Simpson, will present about the TINspire and will have enough to allow you to actually participate in the workshop, not just observe. If you'd like to attend or want more information, please let me know.
As for dates for the spring -
Katie and I are currently verifying these with your school districts. We will post them as soon as we can.
