Theme days for the summit may attract more participants if the find a day that is of great interest.
Eduplanet is not something that is used by our teachers.
Train the trainer model is something that WPS would be very interested in for topics such as complex reasoning, growth mindset, regrouping and learning progressions.
I would like the Leadership Academy to get back together. I am thinking the summit is an appropriate time.

# data[].attributes.body
We are not taking advantages of the resources in eduplanet as much as we could. Unless we design time specifically for teams and individuals to explore these, folks don't ten to go into the tool to look around. We are trying to incorporate some time for review and exploration of these resources when we design in-house PD. I am not sure how else to encourage people to access these.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think my teachers are using the resources and it is probably my fault, as I have not been good on training on how to use the resources. It is a goal for next year. I think they are valuable and would like to have some resources of PSA's or even short articles to share with people as research or ideas

# data[].attributes.body
Resource Development has not been fully taken advantage of yet. As teachers attend different PD sessions, they come back and share what they have learned and have access to.
As far as other resources I can't think of anything right now as we are still learning ourselves.
I would like to focus teacher's time on PD when leaving the classroom. If there is a specific thing, I can certainly recruit who I can.

Would love to see the leadership academy come together on a regular basis
I think there would be interest by my Special Ed folks in a Special Ed specific session. They signed up for this year but it was canceled.

# data[].attributes.body
Please continue the Empower Users Group meeting.

I think that a role-alike meeting for guidance would be great.  Might try the think tank approach there.

Special ed directors and teachers would be great again as well. Perhaps with a focus on sharing examples of students meeting the proficiency requirements despite being special ed : )

Summit on feedback and changing grading practices are sill a need.  Intrinsic motivation information is still a need.  I love the summit format as a way to kick off a day, but either using EduPlanet or something to follow up and keep the learning going-- if we can offer ways so it is not a one and done.  So a summit option maybe-- something about 2nd order change and staying motivated during heavy lifting
Still have a need for opportunities for guidance, special ed and leadership
Empower user groups is still helpful

# data[].attributes.body
We'd be interested in Effective Feedback, Grouping & Regrouping, Motivation
The summits have been valuable for us in generating enthusiasm and deepening understanding.
I'd love to see some kind of ongoing follow-up for these - i.e. one-hour online connections by participants once a month. I think this would help keep forward progress moving.

# data[].attributes.body
I would love a summit focused on communicating with the community about this work - responding to parent/community concerns.

How about one that combines grading and motivation.  Perhaps includes problem solving around "decreased motivation with proficiency-based grading system."

How about a summit on rigor?  Could include defining the 4???

What about a summit on transcripts and college admissions?

# data[].attributes.body
We still have a need to the traditional complex reasoning and habits of mind trainings.  I like the idea of train the trainer model with support throughout the year.
Admin could use a training for complex reasoning -- maybe having the modules to use with the admin team to go through together might be useful
Habits of Mind curriculum training and using the bridge is needed for us
I wonder about providing some "courses" online in EduPlanet so people could participate without having to go out of the classroom-- or even a one hour webinar once a month

# data[].attributes.body
I would love a train-the-trainer, year-long cohort approach for Complex Reasoning and Habits of Mind training.  This would be extremely helpful to my district.

I would try and include admin in the train-the-trainer approach so would not participate in the abbreviated CR training.

I don't believe I would try and send people to the traditional CR and HOM trainings this year.

I would continue to have interest in teachers participating in Summits.

# data[].attributes.body
There is a need for continuing the "traditional" offerings like Complex Reasoning, Habits of Mind, Motivation, & Replacing Grading with Feedback. Those have been the most popular in this district. We have had teachers share their experiences at staff meetings so it is definitely catching on!
There is no need for a refresher as this is still "new" to us.
There is DEFINITELY a need for training of leaders with an abbreviated version of CR & Habit of Mind. My leaders can't spend 3 days out of the building when they are asked to attend other things too.

I offer Hampden again for a venue! :)

I would prefer themed days rather than topics mixed through three days

# data[].attributes.body
I could get a teacher or two for resource development.

Although we have a significant conflict on the first 2 days (with the PreK summer institute), I do like the idea of themed days.  It'll make it easier to get folks to attend.

Themes of interest: leadership, quality instruction, structures - I like the idea of grouping by component instead of by role-alike sessions - I like Brewer's suggestion for structure.

Formats:  Some traditional delivery followed by Action Planning and Team Time

------------------------------------
Complex Reasoning/HOM/Curriculum/Consortium:

RSU 12 hopes to focus on complex reasoning next year while continuing to support our HOM work.  We'd love to see the 3-day sessions for both of these topics.  I also really like the train the trainer model. This would be very helpful to RSU 12.

I don't know if I could get people to commit to the resource development work.  It will be iffy.

I like Shelly's idea and would love to see one of the focus areas be on quality instruction.  Washington County Leadership Team met yesterday and agreed to have this as a main focus next year.  That would likely draw a pool from Washington County.

I think the three themed days would be easier to get people to go to a day or days that target certain components.

I like the idea of having keynote speakers and breakout sessions, and I enjoyed participating in the World Café at the MCL Conference last summer.

PD
What I heard at the WCLT meeting yesterday was systems' inability to send people to multi-day trainings because of the lack of subs.  This has been a challenge for us as well.

I love the idea of the "train the trainer" for complex reasoning.  We would benefit from this greatly. I would hope administrators would participate in an abbreviated session on complex reasoning.  It might be a great way to kick-off a train the trainer series- to support the upcoming work that the teachers would be engaging in.

Summits
We sent people to the summits on learner feedback.  Those who attended were energized by the conversations and the ideas that were shared.

I think we'd likely participate in a summit on grouping and regrouping.  I don't know if there's a big enough draw for WC to host, so the Bangor area would be a likely location to send people to.

We haven't participated in the role-alike activities.  We have had to pick and choose where to focus our efforts....  I don't see us joining that conversation yet.

Resources
There's so much available....  We haven't even scratched the surface.  We need to dedicate some time to this.

# data[].attributes.body
We would be able to get a couple of teachers to attend the resource development workshop.

Themed days for the August Summit would be very helpful in getting our facilitators to attend.

Possible themes: Leadership; Learner Motivation and Autonomy; Learning Opportunities vs. Traditional Courses;   maybe something around offering learner feedback (or would this tie in with motivation?)

Love the Think Tank format. Also, facilitators love hands-on opportunities that allow them to bring something back to their classrooms.

Train the trainer model would be fantastic. I love the idea from Shelly that offered a year long model.
This could include some opportunities online as well as face to face.

3 day sequential trainings of any kind are very difficult for our small district. Would love to see some of these opportunities offered online in the evenings. We have a lot of facilitators that would participate if it didn't mean time out of the classroom.

There is a need for a refresher in HOM and CR.  Again, we prefer evening opportunities.

Summits- We would likely send a few facilitators next year, but we are not planning on sending the whole staff. There was definite value, but our facilitators were asking us to tailor trainings to team and individual needs. I love Shelly's idea to include a parent and community summit.

Resource Development- Facilitators are using the e-libraries, but I don't believe they are using the Empower flipped classroom videos and tutorials. We have had

# data[].attributes.body
I think I could recruit at least 1 teacher for the resource development.
I like the idea of having themed days verses spattering them over 3 days.

I like Shelly's idea regarding focusing our themes on the Shifting Mindset Wheel. I would add that if we keep themes like that, then we can follow up on them with "summits" or more professional development through out the year.
My suggestion for structuring these days would be to offer 2 different "wheel" themes per day. For example: One day could be quality instruction and transformational technology. Another day: motivation and evidence of learning. The other day: Leadership and structures.
I can certainly round up a crew if they did not have to go to all 3 days....

# data[].attributes.body
I may be able to get someone to the resource development work

I might be able to get someone to a summit - we are in negotiations right now so not sure  what I would get for participation

My folks would love more Habits of Mind training opportunities
I like the idea of being able to sign up for one day during the summer for the summit

# data[].attributes.body
In our district we might be able to get a person to participate in the resource development. I probably missed it , but could please clarify how they would participate...online, in-person, combo, etc. This would make a big difference.

I believe that we are in a very different place than many so by having a variety of offerings that may help with our participation.

Trainings that would beneficial: Complex reasoning and habits of mind

Building intrinsic motivation is becoming increasingly important because our students are not taking seriously investment in their education, participation, timelines, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
I think I could get one or two teachers to attend a resource development session.

It would be very helpful to hear from middle schools and high schools that are leading the state.

I love the idea of doing something around motivation.

For me, it is better to have themed days because I probably wouldn't have people there for the three days.

Think tank format is good.

--I should be able to  get a couple of teachers who would work on resource development

-I like the idea of having an opportunity to be able to register someone for only one day or two days instead of all three and think I could get people
-I like the idea of using the circle as a tool for themes.  One day being motivating learning opportunities/quality instruction/varied evidence of learning, another on leadership, and .....
-I have some interest in teachers who want to attend
-Format-- I like the idea of having breakout sessions where people share what they are doing, but allowing time for questions and idea generating around how to use what is learned; leveraging people in the room to problem solve on specific topics --but would want it focused
