Good afternoon,
 
I have been watching the e mails about forming an online work group and
wanted to volunteer to join.  I work as part of the Pennsylvania
Professional Development System.  My supervisor and I attended the COABE
pre-conference/conference in Philadelphia a couple of years ago and had
the opportunity to meet many of the individuals that regularly
contribute to this list. The information shared during the conference
was excellent.
 
I am currently the Assistant Coordinator of the Northwest Professional
Development Center, one of seven professional development centers in
Pennsylvania.  We use some types of online professional development with
teachers in the Northwest region of Pennsylvania, along with a variety
of other venues.  We are extremely interested in moving forward with
additional online opportunities.  I am also familiar with the online
learning tool, Skills Tutor, used by several students in our agency.
 
I believe that I would learn a lot by having the opportunity to work
with others in this proposed work group. Our professional development
center definitely wants to move forward by incorporating various
technologies in future professional development opportunities.  I
believe that being a member of this work group would be very helpful.
