  8. Feedback: Anonymous online evaluation survey • “What encouraging and patient folks we had to help us this week!” • “This was so delightful! I hope to attend again next summer and would even love to be part of the planning and teaching.” • “It was great having folks from all levels there.” • “It is a pleasure to see how the district is keeping up with technology.” • “I’m psyched and motivated to take it to the next level. Great stuff.” • “All the instructors knew their stuff but were able to present at an appropriate level for the students.”

  9. More Feedback… • “If a person could take in all that is offered in this institute, that would more than meet 90% of instructors’ needs.” • “How about an option for decaf coffee next year? The workshop was energizing enough; the combination of it and the coffee left me unable to fall asleep before midnight all week.” • “I got enough ideas from picking through other people’s work to keep me busy till next summer.” • “More sessions on getting video onto the web. And also the eBooks sessions.” • “Wished it was offered more often during the year – perhaps a shorter version of it if there was funding available.”

  10. Looking ahead to 2003/2004 • Thanks! • “Without the mentors, I would have given up in frustration.” • “The number and quality of mentors was great. I couldn’t even wrinkle my brow without someone seeing it and asking if they could help!” • Another photo show…
