allow learners to solve relevant issues that matter to them

  If it doesn't seem to matter to the learners, it will be wasted time for them. Sometimes teachers are only in a PD session for the hours. In such cases, it is the responsibility of the facilitator to make sure there is at least one nugget of info that matters to them.

the team determined a specific goal that they wanted to accomplish by the end of the day

  Good practice to ask what individuals hope to gain but also should ask what hope to gain via collaborative efforts. Maybe should ask them to share their top three strengths to give us a place for building upon.

To guide the work time, we observed some classrooms and discussed what we noticed. Based on our goals, we set clear targets and some time boundaries to check in on progress.

  We do this with teachers as we begin work with them. Maybe we need to be more transparent and have this in writing as well for them to reference- menu.

society evolves and schools work to meet the needs of learners
- anonymous on 26 Apr 17
  
  I think one of the keys here is to acknowledge that society is evolving and we need to evolve to meet the needs of society - for example, just because research shows that, for some things, handwriting helps people remember something better or reading a hard copy is easier for comprehension than a digital copy - just because research at this point confirms these concepts, that doesn't mean we don't need to provide opportunities for practice and teach learners to recall digitally written info or comprehend digital text. If that is the trend the world is moving toward, we have to move in that direction as well - or be left behind.

purposeful
- anonymous on 26 Apr 17
  
  We know that when learning is purposeful, students are more engaged and grasp more. So, why wouldn't we want professional learning to be the same?
