I would love to have people attend "Implementing Learning Progressions", but I anticipate that being a tough sell, in that three full days of Zoom is a lot, and we have ongoing challenges with getting substitutes.

The book talk is one that would be accessible to most, and I will draw people's attention there as well.

Another area that we're looking at is evidence of learning- How do we know a learner has acquired the knowledge/skill to a level of proficiency? What evidence should be "gathered"? How does the evidence gathered inform instructional practices?

First goal- no recommendations

Second goal- need to prioritize the goals- can't do it all, so what's most immediate- maybe increasing membership.

Reword the last bullet to focus on the positive, collaborative nature of the organization as it currently is- changing the focus away from the negatives

Third goal- Add a bullet- Grow leadership:  engage in learning opportunities that support job-embedded practice and refinement and ongoing reflection

Goal four- Bullet #4- punctuation needs to be reversed.
Last bullet- consider focusing on making PD available to other MCL members.
Bullet #2- change wording to not focus on Empower specifically- focus on learning progressions, use of rubrics, and more generic LMS's ]]> 2021-09-17 14:59:18 UTC https://padlet.com/llaughlin/Retreat2021/wish/1748929266 https://padlet.com/llaughlin/Retreat2021/wish/1749016580 Allows for financial compensation to those who facilitate/offer programming.]]> 2021-09-17 15:33:33 UTC https://padlet.com/llaughlin/Retreat2021/wish/1749016580 https://padlet.com/llaughlin/Retreat2021/wish/1841424030 A few years back, there was a plan to create posters for the taxonomy, planning (stimulus) questions, three circles with info about reasoning processes, content knowledge, and habits of mind, and "habits of mind".
