Grades and Transcripts--Updated

Thanks again for all the discussion online. I felt this was a particularly rich class because of all of you.
Here is an update from the ASWC administrator:

Thank you for attending the Alaska State Writing Consortium Writing Matters! online institute. As you know, this ASWC institute is designed to help teachers create a balanced writing program. Writing Matters! is also the spring board to our annual Summer Invitational Institute, a five-credit on-site workshop that we hope you will consider applying for next summer. If your district is an ASWC member, one person is chosen each year to attend the Summer Invitational Institute. Upon successful completion of the Summer Invitational, each participant is given a $1000 stipend. Travel scholarships are also available for teachers who must live away from home to attend. Please check our website around Christmas time for more details because the slots do fill up fast. Next summer's invitational location will be in either Juneau or Anchorage.

All of the grades were sent in on May 6, 2009. Normally, it takes approximately two weeks to process the grades after they have been submitted and have them officially recorded by the university, so that you may order a transcript if you need one.

Transcripts: Unfortunately, the University of Alaska no longer sends out automatic transcripts. If you wish to have an official transcript, there is a fee. To order an official transcript, please go to this link for the form and all pertinent information: http://www.uas.alaska.edu/registrar/transcripts.html

Course Title: ASWC: Writing Matters! A Virtual Institute
Course #: S593
Section: J54
Course reference #: 51494
Three Credits

We applaud your efforts in taking a professional development course because we know how precious time is in the life of every teacher. We hope this online format helped ease the difficulty every teacher feels trying to balance his or her professional and personal life.

We hope you will seriously consider applying to attend next summers Invitational Insitute. If you have any specific questions about the institute, please don't hesitate to ask.

Sincerely,

Dorothy Gray, Program Director

All grades have been posted, and you should have received a final personal email from me. Let me know if you did not, and I will resend. You may request transcripts through the University of Alaska online. Your transcript is supposed to be current within two weeks.
Have a great summer!
