We'll share victories and challenges from one K12 battlefield and discuss ideas and strategies for maintaining forward progress and your own sanity.","Description":"San Marcos Unified decided to implement a 1:1 program, but insisted on a pedagogical focus (Inquiry) rather than just handing out device carts. Most teachers just wanted the devices. Five years down the road, we are in a completely different place with the way teachers respond to that change in pedagogy. Now comes a new revolution - grading practices. With all the edu\/ed tech revolutions we are involved with (in our schools, district, and communities), how do we start and proceed in a way that respects where people begin, motivates progress, and achieves the desired change?","Link":["http:\/\/adinaeducation.net"],"Audience":["All School Levels"],"Practice":"After a brief description of our district intention, strategies, challenges, and current status participants will work on a collaborative action plans based on the What?
