  • lessons
  • If a method of teaching works, that method should be used for teaching the teachers in your PD sessions

      On-going support - not a "one-shot deal"
  • After receiving feedback, teachers worked on another lesson. This approach of lesson design

      Again, on-going.
  • Someone on staff needs to have responsibility for making sure that teachers use the technique and receive feedback in a way consistent with the class. Be sure that this person attends the class and takes part.

      Who will this be? In PLN it was the instructors (Deb, Linda, etc.). Can admins do this as part of their 5x5s and walkthroughs?
  • PD should fit in with the long-term vision for a school or district

      Things we're looking for should be tied to curriculum work.
  • A great untapped potential lies in our ability to teach one another

      Sounds like our PLCs. Can we build PD that builds in a collaborative piece - like the reflection meetings after initial LFS training?

    Which technology tool might be used to facilitate (creating, sharing) the 'note pass' activity? 
  • areardon222 on 16 Sep 15
     
    If you're not worried about the students not knowing who is going to get their note, Google Docs would work. Thinking about how we've done note pass in PLN, usually students just pass their note around the table. In Google Docs, the teacher could have each student start a document (if he/she wanted a quote or prompt at the top, the teacher could start the doc and share it with the kids and have them make their own copy). Students could write their own ideas and then share their document with the student next to them, who then adds the next part. This would require some management and instruction the first time, but so does the traditional note pass activity.

    I think we can save a lot of money as a district if we continue being creative with our resources.
