Howdy!
Today I sent out a short survey to staff at AHS about coaching and how teachers think it is working. The survey was created at http://www.surveymonkey.com
It is really easy to use and free if you don't have too many questions - or you can pay a little to upgrade your services.
Here is the survey I created:

Student Work
I thought it would be fun to show off some of the "stuff" I am helping students work on at Arlington. One area has been in video production. Here is a video students created this semester in our foods lab. (I hope this works!)
It took too long to upload - will try again later!

Technology Integration & Coaching
This year I am working at Arlington in the area of technology integration. It is the first time in 20 years as a teacher that I don't have classes and students assigned to me all day. There are many things that need to be done, and sometimes it seems like I am running in place. As one problem gets fixed - two or three more seem to take its place.
I like the technology and working with staff and students. I don't like the meetings and the feeling that you should be able to "fix" every problem immediately. When I was in the classroom, I could control most of the factors that affected my teaching. Now it seems like the problems are bigger and much harder to control.
I guess the answer is to keep working and not worry so much . . . if only it were that easy!
