"Faculty meetings. Someone on Twitter asked me the other day if I had any resources for making faculty meetings better. I thought about it and it dawned on me. Why not flip them. We use the same reasoning for flipping a classroom and apply it to the faculty meeting. Think about it. All the nuts and bolts stuff that is shared in a faculty meeting could be shared asynchronously via other means, freeing up the traditional faculty meeting time for other things. Not enough time for PLC meetings? Use the Faculty Flip to free up that time and allow grades and departments to meet, talk and plan. Not enough time for Professional Development? Use the Faculty Flip to have an unconference sharing session of what's working and ways to improve practice. "

Integrated & Interdisciplinary PBL You have begun to master the design process of Project Based Learning and the 8 Essential Elements of PBL are evident in the projects you have planned. That's great! The next step in your PBL journey might be to plan an integrated or interdisciplinary project. You can start by bringing other content areas into your own project, or begin planning projects with your colleagues from other content areas. Learn about successfully implemented integrated/interdisciplinary projects in various subjects and grade levels, and hear about design and management techniques to transform your projects into rich learning experiences for your students. Dayna Laur, BIE National Faculty member and featured teacher from Edutopia's Schools that Work series on integrated studies, will lead this hour long session.
