As I mentioned yesterday (and this past Friday), late last week I participated in a Canadian K-12 Online Leaders’ Summit. One of the discussions we had at the summit was an exploration of how to formalize this kind of group so that we could meet on a more regular basis. While the nature of this group, what it may look like, and what it may do is still very much up in the air – although we have a good plan in place to figure that out over the next 12 months – I wanted to use this opportunity to poll my Canadian readers.
Remember, if you select other please use the comments below to describe what you had in mind.
I think it is so important to come up with a plan. Especially to meet again. Time between meeting is alos importnat for team members to discuss and decide what they really think.

The group was divided into four geographic regions and each region took responsibility for arranging a face-to-face meeting to run each quarter – along with an online option for participants that couldn’t travel. As well, we generated specific milestones for us to try and achieve, to ensure that we continue to make progress on whatever this will become.
