The goal of this online learning community is to improve technology use and integration for staff and students at Highland Park High School.
 * __Purpose:__**

According to the Highland Park campus [|STAR chart summary], under Key Area #1, teaching and learning, our campus needs additional improvement in TL 6, online learning. Currently we have a score of 2 for online learning, with the goal being a score of 4. My question, then, is to explore various ideas and comments as to how best to increase this score under Key Area #1. Further discussion can also focus on the feasibility and timeline of implemting any sort of program or plan, including the grading process, syllabus and content, and useful or beneficial teacher/student communication.
