**Goal 1** - Students [|post and respond in online] environments. The students in the 1:1 laptop class are developing [|portfolios] and part of this requires them to analyse and comment on posts about their learning. These are going to be built upon throughout the year. **Goal 2** - Principal to lead the integration of e-learning in their schools. In 2012 each teacher was required to set up a google [|Teacher Action Inquiry] site to record their learning journey. The Principal designed her site around the Teaching as Inquiry model and Teachers used this as a guide. Google docs are used to share documents like our [|term planner] and provide immediate and easy ongoing access for [|professional learning meetings], classroom observations, and [|course notes] which are available on multiple devices. **Goal 3** - Teachers to integrate e-learning effectively into their practice creating an innovative and exciting learning environment for all students. Teachers use e-learning across the curriculum. All classes have wikispaces, [|google sites] or use teacher dashboard and portfolios that have links to sites they use regularly. In 2011 the [|Mathletics] website was used throughout the school to ensure the follow-up/practice activities students were doing related closely to the group work they had undertaken. This year students in Years 3-8 have been given access to [|Reading Eggs] which has provided students with great follow-up/practice activities and ensured they learn to read digitally. [|E-asTTle] is also used online, saving a lot of time and paper. [|Inquiry Task] and [|Inquiry presentation] in a digital class. **Goal 4** - Family and whānau to actively participate in their child’s learning. This year the senior class has gone digital. A [|parent meeting] was held at the end of Term 1. **Goal 5** - Professional reflections to inform colleagues of the challenges and opportunities afforded by e-learning. The Lead Teacher from Pirongia School visited the Year 6-8 teacher to discuss e-learning and how the digital class works, the challenges and what is working well. The use of [|Teacher Dashboard] was shared with Pirongia School and the benefits of this programme were also discussed at the following Principal/Lead Teacher Meeting.
