This is the very reason that the technology directors need to be a
part of the Iowa Core implementation process. I am going to leave my
personal opinions about the value of the ICC training aside, but we
all need to be active in the planning at our buildings. If you are
not currently a part of this core group, put yourself in it for
building and district level planning. I know we all hate meetings
especially finding more to attend but the ONLY way we will have access
to the MS money (at least this batch) will be with ICC tie-ins.

Sounds like a disconnected between DoE and AEA. I guess a lack of
fidelity (just for you Karl).

We have not heard anything yet from Microsoft.
On another note, how many of your are going to apply for the other
Microsoft money and can you share your plans tied to the Iowa Core
Curriculum? I could use some help in this area.
Thanks,

Jeremy,
I sent a copy of the invoices with the first application, never had
verification. Mine is only for $8,000, but everything counts.
Thanks for the info.

Murray-
I received a packet in the mail for verification of all
of that stuff. None of my Select licenses were in there, so I need
to gather all of my invoices, even though they said originally we
didn’t have to, and send them up for evaluation. As for the
operating system section that we originally had to supply the
invoices for, they haven’t got that far, so we just have to continue
waiting on that. They only tried to short me about $23,000 from my
original estimates.
Oh what fun!!!

Has anyone seen/heard of the original round of lawsuit money from
Microsoft? (From all the paperwork we filled out over a year ago)
Since the John O’Conner meeting in November, I haven’t heard any
noise. I wonder if we are better off contacting Steve J. about this…
