Please take a moment to respond to the following questions:

1. Did the format of this session meet your needs? expectations? What suggestions would you give for opportunities like this in the future? As mentioned, this session evolved into a different function than thought and planned for. This is a great thing, I loved this format and am looking forward to more summits on hot topics for us as supervisors. an expectation would be to brainstorm agenda items, word smith statements prior to the meetings. The session did evolve,but the work was and will be vital to our teachers. The informality of the session was perfect.

2. Did the content of this session in its final form meet your needs? expectations? What suggestions would you give for opportunities like this in the future? Some topics for the future might include developing a bank of performance assessments, or strands of professional development that could be delivered electronically.

3. What would you like to see happen as a result of our work here this week? What would you NOT like to see happen? I would like to see our work extend beyond these graphic organizers into specific,targeted audiences. Using them to spawn PowerPoints or mini-workshops for Department Chairs or isolated Curriculum and Instruction Directors in districts with no world language supervisor would be wonderful. I don't want these to end up in a never-opened binder somewhere on a shelf, or distributed beore their time.

4. Any other specific suggestions, comments, or feedback? My only real suggestion is to have an action plan in place before wrapping up the session. This one took on a life of its own, and that's great. Follow-through is easier if there are specific tasks assigned to specific folks to be completed by specific dates. Thank you for an exciting few days. I am truly thrilled to be a part of something with this much potential - CH

thanks!! Rita, Greta, & Thomas
