TASK+3


 * Part 1**

Please post: questions, comments, concerns on the plenary ppt and session. (IB Teacher Orientation ppt on the Resources page)


 * Part 2**

Presenting the plenary may be an individual or group activity. How would you organize the presentation if it has to be shared amongst three Field reps (one per programme)?


 * TASK 3 - a summary and some answers**


 * __Regarding Plenary ppt __**

We have raised several of the issues on the ppt you mention in your discussions with the Communications department of the IB. For the time being this will be the ppt we shall be using during 2012 while the IB works on producing a short video to replace it. Field reps will be getting a jump drive from the PD department with the ppt to ensure there are no problems with the videos embedded in it….you then get to keep that jump drive to take with you whenever you act as a Field Rep and until the new video comes out. **__Regarding presentation of ppt __**

In the case where there are two or three Field Reps on site, all FRs will be arriving at around the same time so it will be possible for you to meet your colleagues before the Faculty meeting…….and arrange a rehearsal session to ensure ppt is working OK and to agree on how to make the presentation. Trying out the ppt with the other field reps is essential too, in order to avoid last minute problems with the sound and projector…..

  As from 2012 WSLs are expected to attend the plenary and be introduced to participants. We want participants to identify not only their WSLs but to see who is leading other workshops, even from other programmes. Many times WSLs are able to set the room on the previous evening or at the worst, rooms are open from very early on the first day of the workshops so leaders can set up and then go to the plenary. Some of the Field reps trained in November were also concerned about WSLs attending the plenary and the introductions…but after trying it out they wrote back saying it had been great!

 * __Regarding FR arrival and departure __**


 * Field reps must arrive at a workshop venue in time to meet up with the Conference coordinator, rehearse Plenary for first day of workshops, set up and lead the Faculty meeting;
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 9pt;">Field reps must leave an hour after the workshops are over to have time to make sure there have been no last minute problems.
