      We were having this conversation last Friday when I discussed plans to meet with ES parents--how do they get 'schooled' about their responsibilities at home when it comes to balance and 1:1 program?
  • Remember That You Are The Parent When it comes to technology, many parents feel that they do not know enough to create limits and boundaries. Because of this they do not feel right taking the technology away. You are still the parent and in your house you make the rules. You have every right to take the computer away from your child if you feel they are not having enough “down time”. I know one family that the whole family felt out of balance so they unplug the Internet in their house. So everyone has to be disconnected at the same time. They use this time to reconnect as a family and just have some ‘down’ time. Create Family Rules The #1 thing you can do is have a conversation with your child. I strongly encourage every family to sit down and talk about exactly the points you raise. Make family rules that everyone can live by. No computer before breakfast, no computer in the car while someone is driving, etc. These are good times to be disconnected and be together as a family. If the parents also abide by these family rules then there is buy-in from everyone. Everyone having to give it up is easier then “Why do I have to give it up but Dad can still check email on is iPhone?” Homework Shouldn’t Take Longer

  • we are striving to flip the delivery of some of the information our teachers need. The goal is to provide more collaboration and discussion time during the precious moments when the whole staff is together.
  • “flipped” sessions; one that has a video component, and one that has a reading portion, and then discussion during our face to face time.
  • backchannels

      I tried TodaysMeet as a backchannel during my iPads session--they weren't into it, but that doesn't mean we cannot try it again to keep the discussion flowing, especially if we do decide to use the flipped model for our own session we deliver. The time can be spent on interactions, meaningful discussions and questions raised from the flipped portion of videos, readings, etc.

    I think this is definitely something we can use when we strive to make the most out of our PD days/sessions!
