Gives people the chance to learn online at their own pace... https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157703612 2017-03-03 18:28:59 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157703612 Opportunity to see more... https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707213 2017-03-03 18:41:50 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707213 Accessibility https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707319 I am very excited about this new format for the learning fair... it will open things up, allowing our wider School Division team to access authentic learning at any time. ]]> 2017-03-03 18:42:12 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707319 possibilities are endless with this format! https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707347 2017-03-03 18:42:18 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707347 I see it as a library .... as new people come or ideas need to be revisited people can go there to learn. amy_rutten https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707641 2017-03-03 18:43:18 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707641 I think teachers will love limited travel and easy access of information but will miss the face to face conversations and networking https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707673 2017-03-03 18:43:25 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707673 Excited about the ability to offer PD in this format, but concerned about my own tech skills https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707833 2017-03-03 18:44:02 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157707833 I like that schools will have to try some new ways of presenting that will encourage them (hopefully) to allow students choice in presenting peglaws https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157708031 2017-03-03 18:44:51 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157708031 https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157708139 Teachers will appreciate that there is less travel and lots of choice.  Also a great savings opportunity for the division.  It is also a great opportunity for technology PD within a building.
On the down side, teachers may miss the opportunity to collaborate with collegues outside their school.

SO - what are good ways to build an online community of learners that extends beyond the actual day of the presentation? It can be done! peglaws https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157710847 2017-03-03 18:54:31 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157710847 I will miss the opportunity to interact with my friends and colleagues across the division that I only see at division wide PD. https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157711035 2017-03-03 18:55:11 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157711035 I think this is the future of PD! https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157711042 2017-03-03 18:55:12 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157711042 It is important for teachers to get out and collaborate with other teachers as well. Wondering if conferences will still be part of PD or will $s dictate only local PD-some of my best PD has come from attending conferences. https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157711314 2017-03-03 18:56:17 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157711314 I love this idea! It will give people access to so many more presentations! I can't wait to see what people come up with! https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157711577 2017-03-03 18:57:13 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157711577 Curious to see what topics people will share. This has the potential to create a fantastic library for everyone. https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157712467 2017-03-03 19:00:05 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157712467 https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157712608 It's a great opportunity to be able to access all presentations! It will also be a good learning tool for schools to explore different presentation styles and then share these with their students. ]]> 2017-03-03 19:00:32 UTC https://padlet.com/peglaws/LearningFair2017CC/wish/157712608
