We are all on this learning journey together.  Participants have been excited about wearing two hats, student and teacher.  They are thankful to be able to experience and take back some of the modeling that we are doing through the modules that will be directly applicable to their classrooms.

Tell your participants over and over that this is a marathon and not a race.

Tell them to take notes in the way they are most comfortable doing it digitally.

Tell them not to worry about using the ebinder this week.  They can play with it later when they have more time.

Tell them what AVID is and how it works. Seriously, be explicit and make them write it down.

Tell them to choose at 3-4 tools or ideas they want to implement after the go back. It is important so they don't get stuck learning technology that they forget to just make sense of the opportunities before them.

Combine activities to give more time in breakout rooms when possible. It makes a difference.  Short breakout rooms are not good.

Don't be afraid to make adjustments when the tech doesn't work. You can always come back to an activity if you are having tech trouble. The participants get it and they give sooooo much grace. Also, check in on them on day 1 about how they are doing with eBinders - that was a huge point of confusion for our folks.

# data[].attributes.body
There is new learning to provide for participants and they are nervous and excited to be here. Treat everyone with grace, even yourselves

Create a Google Form sign in sheet for afternoon attendance to make things smoother

Try your best to explain things in the simplest way possible. Especially with technology and applications. The more we try to "input" technology and digital applications into the syllabus we have to take time to frontload and provide instructions which sometimes gets in the way of the intent of the work. Be mindful that less is more - find a way to package the steps to simplify it when explaining it to your participants.  Help them make connections to processes they know and understand.  (i.e. eBinder - One Note is like a binder and Google is like a webpage/portfolio). Encourage them to revisit the Canvas course often after the three days to process deeper.

I'm worried/wondering about the "hiccups" in using all of the technology.  I'm worried about going back and forth between the different screens and just doing things too quickly or freezing up.

Engaging up front in the BBB, Canvas modules with split screen and pinning ebinders makes a difference if you can master that early with the group
