3) Share: successes and challenges and enhance each other's capacity -

• protocol to share -
• one success, one challenge, one connection

Rick

Success: efficient technology use - student council data gathering, tabulation with google forms

Challenge: optimizing vs. satisfying "there's got to be a better way" not always super efficient

Connection: Brian's affirming "it can be done"

Brian

Success: integrating technology into work rather than on top of - wrestle with this - the more time spent playing more luddite tendencies growing - find a way to use it when fully integrated. Use tech to study language - practice

Challenge: Not allowing the pd needs to get in way of working with students directly

Connection: Louise reminding to get out from behind computer

Louise

Success: Open to new ways

Challenge: Lots of choice but too many choices so I can't help students. Ex. of portfolio to be on same page with all students. Follow a similar plan.

Connection: Julia shared ways she used Google Classroom - sometimes forget to stretch box.

Julia

Success: Specials class 11/12 grade, not graded, college/career ready. Use Google Classroom (choice: story, fact, focus). Not turning in assignments - Exit ticket reflection/evidence

Challenge:

Connection:

Eric

Success: Classroom/docs managing workflow - ind. research then easy share out with google presentation slides

Challenge: Developing a new sense of body language & norms, when is it OK for eyes on screen?

Connection: Ryan took on making folder architecture for comps.

Ryan

Success: Experimenting "paper-free September" - students haven't noticed. Google Classroom use: no more whiteboard, agenda all on announcements.

Challenge: Comps - go well for students, be educational, tracking them even when forms and spreadsheets have been collected. Proficiencies? Create own rubrics? Constant access

Connection: Peter/Julia - adjacent line of sight check in - feels like co-teaching and constant checking in.

Gabe

Success: 9/10 Humanities - Classroom as a note-taking tool. Online designated spot to take notes - ungraded assignment with outline for note-taking. Also take a photo of the board at end of class and add it to the assignment.

Challenge: When paper copies needed? Need to plan that ahead.

Connection: Ron - strengthen the learning - present POLs for middle school - not confuse students

Kellie

Success: More students seeing me as resource - goal is to get them to smile before leaving room. Helping students to set up apps "only a click away" - kids showing things to me so it is reciprocal.

Challenge: Projecting needed, rethink classroom space. Work on solution for all teachers to become paperless.

Connection: Students - if a student has changed their wallpaper, they are not owning the thing, the new binder so put digital stickers. Dictation or Clearly extension

Alexandra

Success: Google Classroom - can edit the assignments until they've been turned in. Comic to share in class - just put it on Classroom.

Challenge: Norms of computer use - balance between flexible while having expectations that make sense.

Connection: Students - 1st day Calculus II students uploaded screenshot of Khan, Peter put up notes on Classroom - "Answers" shamelessly stolen from students for answer key.

John

Success: Being here. Having students energized and enjoying it.

Challenge: Integrating the learning - patient with myself - levels of culture shock. Processing speeds in adjusting to new technologies.

Connection: Checking in with Brian to keep the class on track
