What have we
learned?
1.It’s important to develop a work
plan early on.
2.Maintaining frequent
communication with participants is
vital.
3.You need to create and maintain
contact lists.
4. Continue promoting the work
through presentations.
5. Keep in mind possible
compensation needs.
6. Alignment work is more
challenging than we anticipated.
What questions should
you keep in mind
about collaboration?
Do students in our area transition
seamlessly from high school to
college/university?
Are our college faculty members well
informed about the CCSS and its
implementation?
Do we have strong connections between our
K-12 schools and the local colleges and
universities?
Would our students benefit from the use of
common expectations and assessments?
