Day one: June 1, 2015

GAETI, Global Academic Essentials Teacher Institute is a two year old workshop help at Mississippi State University with Doctor Pamela Bracey and other instructors facilitate this workshop.  This workshop goes 22 days and two weekend and we get paid twice for this workshop (woo).  I learn that common core will be changed to:  Mississippi College and Career Readiness Standards and we get ten CEU`s for this workshop. 

I also learn that the course is the largest, followed by strands, competence (bold print), , objectives, and DOK is the last of the  Mississippi frameworks.  I have an acronym for it:  C, S, C, O, D.  The Mississippi frameworks will be revised every six years and it takes three years to do it ( a writing team will form it). 

We went to the library and Dr. Beth show us how to use MAGNOLIA web site.  Dr. Beth talked very fast and I got very tired and bored.  We stayed there for about one hour.  We also used ask-a-library (anyone in the state can use this site at any school, public library, college, or university and it has a password that cannot be given out to the public)

The last thing we did, we went back to the computer room to learn how to set-up another email site:  samgilkey1gmail.com and samgilkey2gmail.com and my password is the same for both of them.  We learn how to set-up a blob account and reflected on what we learn for this day.  THIS WAS A GREAT DAY.
