Guiding Principles

Collectively, the M-Team is responsible for the following:

• Providing adequate monitoring/supervision of CDLI space.
• Providing adequate supervision for core lab activities in all science courses. Note that, for safety reasons, this is compulsory and must be in place before registering students in any online science course.
• Using the assigned slot before alternate slots are considered (during official registration).
• Making every effort to align the school timetable with the CDLI timetable. Please consult with your DoS if your timetable is not aligned, as this could significantly lose instructional time for students.
• Aligning the school calendar to the 14-day CDLI yearly calendar. For example, day 2 for CDLI should be day 2 at your school.
• Making every effort to limit the number of e-learners per course to 6 or less with a maximum of 8.
• Attempting to limit the total number of e-learners online simultaneously to a maximum of 8 due to available equipment, connectivity and supervision limitations.
• Attempting to limit the total number of courses per student to 4. In special circumstances, this limit may be increased if it is deemed to be in the student's best interest.
• Consulting CDLI personnel for changes in registration and making changes through the "Change Request" tool.
• Setting up and maintaining a school-based M-Team to support e-learning.
• Partnering with the CDLI e-teaching team to help support students by developing and implementing appropriate interventions when necessary.
• Ordering textbooks from the Learning Resources Distribution Centre (LRDC). CDLI students should be included in your normal school ordering process.
• Communicating with parents and prospective students about the CDLI e-learning model.
• Encouraging students to take care of all CDLI equipment supplied at the school.
• Ensuring that CDLI has accurate M-Team information, including active e-mail addresses.
• Ensuring that CDLI student profiles are completed with accurate information, including parent/ guardian email.
• Notifying e-Teachers of any significant occurrences in their particular school (i.e. sickness, death, catastrophic events, family issues, student issues, etc.) to ensure CDLI is sensitive to the needs of students and staff during difficult times.
• Storing final grades and distributing student reports according to the scheduled CDLI reporting periods.
• Informing CDLI personnel of students with existing IEPs, or of students who might require an IEP.
• Providing consumables/supplies to the level prescribed by the curriculum guide (i.e. lab supplies for science courses, art materials, etc.).
• Providing CDLI students with individual accounts on specific CDLI computers.
• Keeping administrator passwords private. These should not be shared with students.
• Leaving student machines on overnight ensures that scheduled Windows™ and virus updates occur.
• Students may be required to reboot machines in the morning to ensure reliable online connections.
• Providing priority access of CDLI equipment to CDLI students.
• Limiting use of CDLI equipment. CDLI equipment should not be made available to the public.
• Using the All-in-One Printer for CDLI purposes. CDLI will supply one toner per year. The school will be responsible for supplying additional toner cartridges if used for other purposes. Contacting NLSchools school technicians with any connectivity concerns. CDLI should then be contacted so we can inform our teachers of the concerns/outage.
