I can see several teachers on campus able to immediately adapt to BL due to their focus on kids first content second. The other, more traditional teachers, tend to place content first and kids second. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174660651 2017-05-31 16:38:40 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174660651 Great resources.

Blended learning allows students to use technology to meet them where they are at as far as interest, skills, and pacing.

We need to change our mindset about how we think of many of the indicators of student success. How we deliver content, skills, and information and how we can value the various ways students demonstrate their understanding with an equitable value. PACE, CREATIVITY, MOTIVATION, ACCESS, ASSESSMENT all things PUSD needs to have a common message about in order fro change to be systematic and not just and individual schools perspective. We just need to trust the move and only know it will develop a better education for children and their future.. not our past. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174664594 2017-05-31 16:56:54 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174664594 What If... https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174664598 What if ALL teachers and leaders had to spend a day shadowing a student for a day?

A lot of feedback indicates that teams and individuals,on the other hand, are not always effective in implementing those changes. How can we ensure buy-in from teachers on this front, so that it does not become a spotted implementation in certain classrooms, while others still revert back to outdated teaching and learning modalities? https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174667938 2017-05-31 17:12:15 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174667938 Great video resources. Thinking about the whole student is the essence of education. Empowering students to use their creativity and allowing them to embrace being wrong is a big part of PL. This is were/when learning truly occurs. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174668422 2017-05-31 17:14:18 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174668422 I enjoyed the ideas presented in regards to empowering teachers and encouraging them to try- even if they make a MESS! https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174669235 2017-05-31 17:17:24 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174669235 Becoming very strategic in how we use data to organize our targeted instruction will help our students receive what they need. Also thinking outside the box regarding the digital content that we use with our students so that the digital content is varied and supports the students needs. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174669623 2017-05-31 17:19:13 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174669623 Sir Ken Robinson/TED video makes it seem so simple.

The shift is in the role of the teacher to facilitator rather than the giver of all knowledge. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174669861 2017-05-31 17:20:15 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174669861 I want to explore more about reflection and how student voices are cultivated. I want to know where and if meta-cognition is a big part of reflection and if the emphasis on teachers helping students acquire the skill of teaching students to think about their thinking. So far I like how parts of PL have been illustrated for us....Found it: "For all the talk about learning to learn, it doesn’t make the core curriculum in most schools. The report outlines five key learning strategies: 1) study skills, 2) metacognitive strategies, 3) self-regulated learning, 4) time management, and 5) goal-setting." https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174669904 2017-05-31 17:20:25 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174669904 Great information. Hopeful that there will be more training for admin. and teachers https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174670102 2017-05-31 17:21:09 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174670102 “Instead, it was seeded with early adopters,” she said. “It spread organically from the ground up, and then everyone was doing it.” https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174670648 That is a quote from Six Tips from Personalized Innovators Leading Change.  I believe this strategy is one we need to encourage and support at our schools.  We have teachers across our district that are excited and what to learn more and do more and when they can dialogue with others who are on the same learning path it builds synergy and excitement.  The excitement is then shared as others visit these classrooms (open doors) and feel empowered to try what their colleagues are trying. 

I love this slide -  we need to be innovative, not just creative.

We need to support the innovation that is happening in our classrooms.

There are factors that make students and teachers nervous about creativity such as, timelines, expectations and rules. Creativity involves taking a risk and often there is a fear of being 'wrong' which often causes students and teachers to fall short of their true potential, in my opinion. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174673078 2017-05-31 17:34:12 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174673078 start by having a leader in each group, they fade away once they understand how it works. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174673079 2017-05-31 17:34:12 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/174673079 Clear definition of high quality blended learning.

The skill was used with kindergarteners, and I would love to have the same used with high school students. THough I would be considered with their level of competitiveness or shaming each other for those who "didn't get it".

I agree!! https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180062661 2017-08-03 17:47:01 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180062661 It's so helpful to see other classrooms and the way they set up the physical space. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180062698 2017-08-03 17:47:52 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180062698 How are we suppose to teach our student IT'S OKAY to make mistakes? https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180062720 2017-08-03 17:48:23 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180062720 Leadership not always the problem when a school needs innovation. Sometimes team members aren't inspired to go for stretch results, team members don't build and adapt others ideas, teams struggle with self-organization and teams don't excel at experimentation. It takes top/down and bottom/up supporting efforts for innovation to thrive https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180063024

You jump in and you tweak what you need to and when you need to. I am so excited to jump in this year!

They discussed a great need for flexible seating, and vibrant spaces in the classroom. I feel that DP does a great job of including a comfortable and welcoming space for students to learn. (instead of those "yuck" walls they described) https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180064678 2017-08-03 18:15:54 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180064678 I loved the articles and videos about Blended Learning. It emphasizes the significance of teacher participation and the effective use of digital technology. With proper implementation of blended learning, it creates a higher success rate for every student in school. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180064940 2017-08-03 18:19:11 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180064940 The article about the teacher who shadowed 2 students was quite revealing. We would benefit greatly from seeing school from the students' perspectives. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180065616 2017-08-03 18:28:37 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180065616 I learned that student choice drives personalized learning, and that there can be many pathways to achieve student goals. The key to remember is that students must have ownership in their education by way of learning that speaks to each child's learning style(s), and the teacher must use up-to-the-minute student data wherever possible to meet with students to assess their progress in achieving their goals. Groups should be small enough to allow routine 1-on-1 interaction, and students should be made to feel comfortable in making mistakes. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180078543 2017-08-03 22:10:07 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180078543 https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180078574 There was a comment to the effect of, "our world is not the same as it was 100 years ago, but the classroom is." resonated with me. If we are truly going to prepare our students to become successful citizens of tomorrow (which will be significantly different than what we are living in today), than we have to break the mold, address our fears, and start tackling the "new world" of education. Where would we be today if the explorers of yesterday didn't sail the seas or go into space?]]> 2017-08-03 22:11:12 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180078574 Great Articles. Gave many good ideas about how to implement personalized learning in classrooms! https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180078758 2017-08-03 22:15:20 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180078758 I think the big take away for me is that instead of the student conforming to the content/instruction, the content/instruction conforms to the student. One question I have is how does this then change the grading process/assessment process? https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180078851 2017-08-03 22:17:51 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180078851 My biggest take away from the videos I watched is starting with one thing, letting this grow or fail, tweak what you can for success. Jump in but don't forget to check the temperature with your toe first! https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139148 2017-08-04 16:38:19 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139148 Having the opportunity to work with more students one on one and in small groups, gives students more attention which in turn could lower students seeking attention in a negative way. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139493 2017-08-04 16:45:05 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139493 From the article 6 tips from Personalized learning, I really liked the part that said embrace not knowing. That there are others in the same boat about trying new things. Taking risks is okay. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139559 2017-08-04 16:45:56 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139559 I enjoyed getting to see the immediate feedback the teacher got from how her students performed. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139602 2017-08-04 16:46:29 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139602 I think with the implementation of blended learning, my time as a teacher is more wisely spent. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139604 2017-08-04 16:46:30 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139604 Great videos where teachers model the components of blended learning and how it should look in the classroom https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139612 2017-08-04 16:46:35 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139612 I found the 6 tips for implementation very interesting!!! https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139644 2017-08-04 16:47:00 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180139644 The articles provided great tips for implementing blended learning. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180140299 2017-08-04 16:54:28 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/180140299 The information provided in the video was extremely helpful. The definition between the differences blended learning and technology rich environment was eye opening to me. https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/186577482 2017-09-11 21:33:33 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_goetchius/gvb39jky1qu2/wish/186577482
