Elementary examples.....we need more insight here.  I feel like I can speak to planning for middle school, but need more examples and ideas for lower elementary.

Thomas College is a great facility!  They are a wonderful host, though the amenities of the dorms were a bit light.  Next time I need to know that bedding and towels are not included.  I should have known I guess, but didn't think about it while packing.

Energizing and inspiring presentations today.  The focused attention to specific topics seemed to work better for me today.  I gained exposure to great process ideas and I am excited for the year ahead.

One take away is that the planning for learning revolves around the targets.  Start there....then look at your learners.  Plan to meet their needs, and meet them where they are.

Having an opportunity to discuss topics with diverse groups helps us all look at alternatives. Disgussing new ideas and sharing what works and doesn't are positive ways to start a new year.

Still trying to wrap my head around using MCL in early elementary (K and 1)  Would love more sessions that are geared towards these young learners.

This energy for education and learning at the summit is helping me gear up for a new school year. I'm excited to meet my new learners this year and get going with a great year! I'm starting to think about how to incorporate more mentorships into my curriculum.

I loved that we reflected on our goals before we selected sessions. I had never done this "formal" process and realize that even though I had the best intentions, I'm not sure my selections at previous conferences have aligned with my goals.

The example of success and next step feedback form for behavior issues was helpful.  I am looking forward to adding it to my tool box to help children with challenging behaviors.

This tool sparked great conversation among our staff here. I would like to use this with PLCs, grade levels and the staff at my school to help us plan our next steps - big and little.

When we were being trained by RISC, there was a level of training where learning coaches would circle the room and most of the day was planning and conferencing with the learning coaches. This was a great time to get instant feedback on future work and led to better "walk-through's" when they visited the school. Would love to see an opportunity for teams that are further down the MCL road to have more time to plan, check, adjust with a learning coach.

I am impressed with the facilities and I am glad we had time to talk about school goals for the 2 days.

The breakout groups were not amazing, as I had expected.  I had hoped to find ways to motivate students, not just a long sermon on the fact that students do need to be motivated.  The curriculum map session was just old stuff from days past; have seen that a thousand times.

In the morning we learned a lot about the "why" of MCL which was great. In the afternoon I would've liked to focus on the "how" of implementing it.

The time to collaborate and process orally with people within our school system was immensely beneficial for planning how to take this information and apply it to take next steps to further our school this coming school year.

I'd LOVE an electronic copy of the planning tool (as mentioned in the next column). The one on the site is  a different version.

I would have like to go to two sessions that were scheduled at the same time. I know materials are posted, but perhaps have some sessions run more than one time.

I am totally on board with complete elimination of the Industrial Age Model - schools are archaic breeding grounds for bad behavior, ennui, and negativity.  Adults think that students have to go to these ancient institutions in order to SUFFER just like they did.  Everything about schools is completely obsolete.  MCL gives us the portal to effect change.  I plan to begin right at the outset of the school year.

This summit allowed me to get a better understanding of how MCL can play an essential role of meaningful learning experiences. I am still trying to wrap my head around providing this ideal learning experience for my young learners, kindergartners, but I feel a lot better about where I am headed.

Flexible grouping can take place at any time and in any place. Creating learning paths would be a manner of getting in house adminisitrivia and trainings done

It's so important for everyone to be on the same page with the language - specifically the Seminar, Labs, Tutorials and Mentorships are what struck me.

I liked the language of this statement:
One or two people could do the work but I want you to leverage everyone's thinking.
This is language I want to use with my own students in the future.

CK12 is totally free.  You can assign resources and tasks to learners and as a facilitator you can monitor progress.  You can customize content and make it work for your learners. It is a fantastic resource.

Part of the beauty of the process of shifting to MCL from our traditional structures is that we, as an elementary school, never had to implement MCL according to artificial timelines. We have been working in this direction because it will be beneficial for learners. I feel that we can adopt MCL by choice, rather than compulsion and that will be fueled by passion rather than simply forcing my teachers to comply.

# data[].attributes.body
I appreciated the orderliness of the sign-in process. All of the materials were well-organized and the process was simple. I also like having the schedule on the back of the Program Booklet.
