At the Open Fellows Meeting on May 17, 2010, the WPWP Reorganization Committee presented the results of its year-long work. You can download the Power Point presentation (saved as a pdf.) right here:Open Fellows Meeting Presentation.


Due to the efforts of WPWP fellows and faculty from the School of Education, the WPWP has developed a list of exciting goals and implementation plans for the next year. These plans include rich opportunities for leadership, professional development, and inquiry. Please take some time to look over these goals, plans, and opportunities by downloading the Overview of Goals and Implementation Plans and the WPWP Leadership Opportunities Packet.
