**WAB Internal Deadlines**
Jeff to get the brochure/image and text together NOON Tuesday - Madeleine to send out to the school reps Tuesday evening! Jeff to upload to the school bulletin NOON Tuesday! Jose and Tom are going to find presenters! All of us will write our proposal by Friday

Fapios
Schools in Beijing do not provide fa piao to each other. There is an agreement that a letter from the finance office of one school will be accepted in lieu of a fa piao for all other schools in Beijing. Alternatively, we can offer generic receipts. School reps need to coordinate this with Madeleine.

Presentation Proposal Format
Title: Outline: Target Audience: Resources required: are laptops required? do you need an IWB? Projector? Remember to only use resources that are available in China - we cannot use VPNs here at WAB.

Unconference Conversations
Format: in the opening we say what this is. What are the conversations that you are hoping to have today? We are having some sessions where you can get together with others to discuss your topic. For example, Classroom management issues in a 1:1 environment, what does Moodle do for you? Why should I use video in my classroom, creative commons - what does that look like in a HS setting? When
