It was informative and well done. I was excited to here mention of TPCK since I am currently doing some research on the topic itself for my graduate degree. Hope you continue getting positive feedback! Thank you for sharing your research with the K- 12 community. I thought your presentation was great! It was informative and well done.

My question about your conclusion: Do you need to include the word 'technology' anywhere? Let me back up. If Willie is not attending integrative team meetings, are there such meetings in his school? Are there in most schools? Your conclusion that content matters, and the "educator role that integrates leadership and instruction and exists interdependently with school colleagues". Don't these apply to all aspects of school? Going back to the charter issue, (and to an ongoing discussion at Bridging Differences with Diane and Deborah), all of these attempts to change the structure and labor models and funding of schools are really about getting teachers to work together more, to get more research on task, and to bring in the integrative approach that a barista team in a starbucks have, or the systems engineering staff at a Northrop-Grumman project, but not quite so in the average public school. No? Jon, I really enjoyed your presentation; you mixed it up good, and I loved the graphics and focus changes.
