The purpose of this site

This is intended to be a site for members of the growing VPAA Design Team to work in private on draft documents and to pilot the usefulness of a site like this in the future for the broader community of Visual, Performing, and Applied arts teachers, partners, administrators and possibly students.

If you view the videoclip under Creativity Resources on this page from TedTalks by Charles Leadbeater, you'll hear him talk to the fact that these new technology tools allow us to work collaboratively and thereby build and create new knowledge exponentially - a la other Creative Resouces, the "Did you know" video.

So, let's play on this site for a bit and see how this can work for us.

I'm also reviewing another tool, "Zoho Notebook" and will probably invite a few of you to try that out as well.

I like the ease of use of Blogspot and working between it, Google Documents, and Zoho Show, I've been able to put this site together pretty easily. So, at this point it may do what we need. But, let's keep exploring.
