 * Outline:**

Accomplishments and lessons learned at the conclusion of our first year of regional collaboration:


 * 10-minute overview of the initiative** (review what is in the description above, from “birds-of-a-feather” session at NECC 2006 to current plans for 3 annual face-to-face meetings – 2 local and one at NECC.


 * 40-minute panel discussion of the past year** (I think this should drop to 30 minutes)

Ø Why a New England regional affiliate? To whom might this apply – perhaps some of the larger, yet very rural states with low student enrollment? I suggest that we have a graphic with the student populations of each of our respective NE states and compare that to 5 or 6 other states that equal our combined population to help place this effort into proper perspective.

Ø What concepts have surfaced so far as potential collaborations? Provide a summary of our agenda items, next steps, effort to date. ..

Ø How might the NE ISTE affiliate help support ISTE’s visions and goals? Lynne Nolan might want to comment here. ..

Ø How are we communicating and addressing organization logistics currently? Discuss and demo the NEISTE website and wiki and potential for other “distance” communication strategies in the future. . . assigned roles, current financial position, bylaws. ..

Ø What are the some of the long-term goals/vision of NEISTE? Perhaps we mention NECC in Boston, attainment of 501(c)3 status eventually. . . . what else?


 * 10-minute conclusion summarizing year one** (I think this is the same as the intro, instead, I would suggest some time for Q&A, may only last 5 minutes or less)
