We heard from participants there was a lot of "hot air" this year...one thing I took away... is that  you must practice in the session what you are preaching. ]]> 2019-04-23 18:50:29 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353505645 MEET-UP FORMAT denisethornton https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353506500 The meet-up format of the detracking session went really well and would work for a variety of topics. ]]> 2019-04-23 18:52:37 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353506500 DETRACKING AND ACCELERATION denisethornton https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353506838 Detracking was a big theme...especially the idea of detracking and acceleration, how do you handle them separately, what is their intersection, can you detrack and still accelerate? There is a lot of interest in figuring this out.]]> 2019-04-23 18:53:30 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353506838 EQUITY AND SOCIAL JUSTICE THEMES denisethornton https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353507044 Student agency, identity, belonging were strong in the Equity and Social Justice strand; along with culturally responsive teaching practices.]]> 2019-04-23 18:54:03 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353507044 jackie_lejeune https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353516758 I would like to learn more about how this was facilitated.]]> 2019-04-23 19:20:10 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353516758 jackie_lejeune https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353517374 I wonder how we could incorporate these culturally responsive practices into our IC maps.]]> 2019-04-23 19:21:54 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353517374 denisethornton https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353522922 What specific resources would you bring to the booth? Demos or meet ups at the booth?]]> 2019-04-23 19:39:28 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353522922 DC SOCIAL MEETING CAMPAIGN - PRIOR & DURING NCSM denisethornton https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353525711 It was very effective to send an evite out to a target audience.  Felt more elite. "Friends of the DC" were happy to be invited. ]]> 2019-04-23 19:48:01 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353525711 DC SWAG & COLLATERAL denisethornton https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353528391 It'd be nice for all of the staff who are attending to have a button to wear on their lanyard "Ask me about the DC."  
The fold up signs are a nice touch too. 
I don't think we need sign-in sheets. It's tedious to get participants to sign it.

I am not convinced a booth is the right way to connect (it MAY be!) but there are lots of ways we might get the word out and connect with folks - lets get creative! ]]> 2019-04-24 15:38:43 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788003 Buttons https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788176 We HAVE those buttons, and I believe we sent them. Just need to wear them!]]> 2019-04-24 15:39:05 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788176 https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788223 It's sometimes difficult to give a tangible tool depending on the session, so I really appreciate the ideas given today about a half-sheet, access to slides, QR code, etc. ]]> 2019-04-24 15:39:11 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788223 Resources and considerations https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788237 What DC resources/tools can we highlight and discuss at sessions? Also, what do we want out of that session (e.g., tools/takeaways for participants; new work/contracts)?]]> 2019-04-24 15:39:13 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788237 Monette monettemciver https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788239 I was curious about the proposal review process. Do Dana Center staff participate in the review of proposals for the conference? If not, how could you be involved?]]> 2019-04-24 15:39:14 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788239 Shift in audience mary_davis_66 https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788275 We are used to presenting to admin/supervisors... we need to be sure we have the right audience if we present at NCTM.

That also helps us grow our brand.]]> 2019-04-24 15:39:29 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788345 Anne https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788380 If this is something we're interested in learning more about and presenting on in the future, do we have any other connections to people who are successful in this, besides our colleagues in San Francisco? It might be good to learn from other places that are doing this too.]]> 2019-04-24 15:39:34 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788380 NCTM https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788473 Strategically, what do folks think is the upside to our attendance, presenting, and/or product-level 
presence?]]> 2019-04-24 15:39:46 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788473 Sign in sheets https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788528 Might be annoying, but they are critical to building an engaged audience. Not crucial to FORCE people to sign in, but awesome to have on the tables.]]> 2019-04-24 15:39:53 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788528 Session Strategy https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788667 Given what we know about how NCSM chooses sessions, how will we put forth a coordinated strategy to make sure the ideas we most want to share are included in the accepted sessions?]]> 2019-04-24 15:40:11 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788667 Take away form https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788696 I really like Alison's idea of a take away form with links and Lisa's suggestion of the small post card with a QR code]]> 2019-04-24 15:40:14 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788696 Take away form https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353788706 I really like Alison's idea of a take away form with links and Lisa's suggestion of the small post card with a QR code.

I'm happy to wear a Dana Center shirt or other professional attire. The buttons are too cheesy. A teacher conference is a different matter. This is a leadership conference.

It has also been suggested that we print some of those ribbons that attach to your name tag. Some could say, Ask me about the Dana Center. Others could say "I ❤️ The Dana Center" that we could give away.]]> 2019-04-24 15:41:08 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789215 Unique Sessions https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789292 I think we also have unique experiences with some of our work that we could present on.

From comments on actionable tools, it sounds like supervisors also wanted things we would typically save for a teacher conference.]]> 2019-04-24 15:41:17 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789299 https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789562 What is the strategy for determining what topics will be presented on? can there be discussion ]]> 2019-04-24 15:41:48 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789562 detracking meetup https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789606 I'd like to hear more about the meetup format too]]> 2019-04-24 15:41:52 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789606 https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789651 Meet-ups sound more appealing because participants feel like they can contribute, not just hear from someone else. ]]> 2019-04-24 15:41:58 UTC https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789651 Using Conference Sessions as PD https://padlet.com/denisethornton/NCSM_DEBRIEF/wish/353789936 Should conferences be an opportunity to provide feedback to each other as colleagues?
