Be present and meet with educators in informal settings because that reveals more about what formal decisions we should be making than anything else. -RNicolas

2) What would it take for you to be passionately committed?
3) Are we rowing together and what will we do when someone isn't?
4) How did this meeting improve student learning?

Goals from the District level to the individual level. At District we talk about percentages, at sites we talk numbers (18/40), at teams we talk about names, and at the individual level we know "which ones" - from numbers to faces.

LOVED this session!  Rebecca Nicolas had some great insight into getting students to be more engaged in their own learning process. I especially loved her point on in-class academic advising and providing a way for students to reflect on their work before meeting with them about it regularly.
I’ve done my own version of this over the last couple of years, but I’ll definitely be amping it up for my classes this year by providing a similar reflection sheet for their grades & effort, and meeting with them weekly.
