Shorter sessions spread out over a longer period of time OR hold the course in-person or virtual over a 2 day period. https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410856587 2022-12-06 15:34:58 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410856587 Perhaps the sessions could be spread across a longer timeline. https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410856610 2022-12-06 15:34:59 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410856610 Padlet integrated into break-out rooms and learning groups - allows more convenient note-taking https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410856941 2022-12-06 15:35:10 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410856941 the unionized environment workshop was quite informative and hit home for most managers https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410857381 2022-12-06 15:35:27 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410857381 Overall, course is really helpful in guiding conversations with staff. We feel more confident in having different types of discussions with staff https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410858294 2022-12-06 15:36:04 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410858294 More real-world application of the collective agreement - what does a manager need to know about reading/interpreting a collective agreement https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410859106 2022-12-06 15:36:37 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410859106 More data on McGill supervisors: # of, where they are across campus, years of service, etc... https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410859670 2022-12-06 15:37:00 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410859670 I appreciate how you used different tools and teaching techniques throughout the sessions as examples for US to use ;) well done! https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410867649 2022-12-06 15:41:06 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410867649 It was good that there wasn't "homework" to complete between sessions. Focus on the face to face learning was best :) https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410876956 2022-12-06 15:46:53 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410876956 Difficult conversations https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410883718 Should add some scenario/role play of difficult situations to help us navigate and practice strategy to solve those situation. 
Same with difficult unionized vs non-unionized situations that are complex to navigate. ]]> 2022-12-06 15:51:23 UTC https://padlet.com/joansoareshsi/25b3mzry7y5njfad/wish/2410883718
