#personalizedPD chat. A fast-paced, fun chat to discuss personalized professional development for educators. We discuss what it is, why it's better than traditional PD, how to create personalized PD opportunities, how to scale it from individuals to districts, and how to inspire it from individuals to districts to want more and more of it. Hosted each week by Jason Bretzmann @jbretzmann and Kenny Bosch @KennyBosch and moderated each week by a guest moderator. 8pm Central each Tuesday.
Thank you for joining us tonight for #personalizedPD#ProDriven chat.
We will use both hashtags for the last time tonight, but #ProDriven will be THE hashtag from 7-10 forward
Please welcome our guest moderator Knikole Taylor @knikole
Thank you for leading the #ProDriven chat!
Hello! I am Kenny Bosch. Thank you, for joining us tonight for the #personalizedPD#ProDriven chat.
Take a minute and invite some friends to join us for the #ProDriven chat.
Welcome, Dan! Glad you could join us! We are using both hashtags #ProDriven and #personalizedPD for tonight. Starting next week, it will only be #ProDriven.
Greetings everyone! I'm Lucy Villarreal, leadership ed consultant, coach and facilitator based in Tx...in the middle of dinner but still wanting to chat 😆 I’ll be in and out ... #personalizedPD#edchat
Hi there! Natalie, Instructional Technology Resource Teacher from VA. I love looooooong walks on the beach...lol. No, I really love the beach, spending time with family, and traveling during the summer. Excited I stumbled on to #PersonalizedPD tonight!
A1: Personal learning goal has been learning the ropes of turning a book into an audiobook. LOTS of rules to follow. More tedious than I thought, but REALLY good learning! #ProDriven#PersonalizedPD
A1: Was AP for summer school. Now on to attending a conference next week, presenting a few weeks after that, and trying to read as much as I can. #prodriven#personalizedPD
Congratulations on making this happen! Can't wait to hear all the stories of how you did it. Love that you jumped right in. #GrowthMindset#personalizedPD#ProDriven
A1 Diving into a coding project with my crew and completing it before school starts as well as reading as many books as I can. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
A1: My summer PD plans include reading some new books that I haven’t been able to start or finish. I love reading books about leadership but specifically I’m looking for books about trauma sensitive schools and resiliency. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
A1. I plan to complete my Google Level 2 certification and complete some SMART certifications as well. Trying to stay as up to date as possible and gather ideas for relevant tech integration. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
That’s awesome, Gwena! Welcome. Look forward to connecting and hearing your thoughts! We’re using two hashtags tonight, but starting next week it will just be #ProDriven. #PersonalizedPD

#personalizedPD A1 part 2 I forgot I'm going to two conferences also. One we're Todd Whitaker will be speaking and another where Jimmy Casas will be speaking. Both are local so I won't have to travel far and I'm so excited to meet these down-to-earth authors in person!!
#personalizedPD#Prodriven Off topic: I just started a Blog if anyone is interested. Feel free to visit my Twitter page and there are links to it there!
I have a few interests that I haven't narrowed down just yet...personalized coaching....tech integration/importance in teacher support are my faves this week. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
A1: Hi, Becca Elem. Ins Coach. Working on my @leadingedgecert for Prof Learning Leaders and hoping to get @Flipgrid certified if time! Going to try and do some virtual conferences as well. Busy, but I love it! #PersonalizedPD#ProDriven
A2: When my book came out last November, I had SEVERAL educators ask if it will be an audiobook so they could listen on car trips, working out, cleaning, etc. Hoping the audiobook version will only reach more educators and have a larger impact! #ProDriven#PersonalizedPD
Bringing standards grading to the school will hopefully cause a tremendous mental shift away from grades as points to feedback and something measurable. #ProDriven#PersonalizedPD
A2 I want to share ideas with others, because teaching is a hard profession, especially by yourself. We all need to be in this together, so I just want to do my part. #ProDriven#personalizedpd
A2: My hope is that I’ll be a better leader, more supportive and understanding. We are learning about trauma sensitive curriculum and I believe better understanding our humanity will bless our students & community as a whole. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
A2: The learning will impact student learning as our in-class activities will be more authentic and will create better opportunities for experiences. Life is about the experiences and the stories that result! #personalizedPD#ProDriven

#personalizedPD#ProDriven I've been surprised at how some of my colleagues seem to be influenced by the PDI attend/do. My Ss see I work hard and want to work hard to please me. Last year they said they appreciated how I constantly learn to make myself a better teacher for them!
Agree, but what a few schools around here ran into was a change in grading happened, but instruction did not. 21st-century grading NEEDS 21st-cnetury instruction. #ProDriven#PersonalizedPD
A2: I hope to set goals for not only my students, but my colleagues as well. I want to use the things that I learned and inspire others to keep pushing for more. #prodriven#personalizedPD

A2: I hope that #LeadingEdge will sharpen up my coaching skills for #PersonalizedPD this coming year. I hope to take away some ideas I can implement right away. Also want to share all the features for @Flipgrid w/Ts!! Hope all trickles to Ss! #ProDriven
I hope you'll submit a story from inside your school for the second edition of the Stories in EDU book! We want to help share your stories and your ideas! We are in this together! https://t.co/qcPmZOOhnt#personalizedPD#ProDriven
A2 I worked with a girls coding club last school year and learned that there's so much I don't know. Planning to share what I learn with students and teachers this school year. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
Good Morning! Thanks for joining us. We’re using both hashtags #ProDriven#PersonalizedPD for the last time this week. Starting next week, it will just be #ProDriven.

Q3 How have the current events and happenings within our country and your community impacted and/or directed your learning this summer? #personalizedPD#ProDriven
A2. I'm hoping that learning about the latest updates on the platforms we use in my district will help me help teachers to create tech enhanced learning experiences. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
A3: It has continued to help me rework my personal finance class and AP Econ classes as I do every year. Real world examples and happenings make for great learning. #prodriven#personalizedPD
#PersonalizedPD#ProDriven The current events have not affected me at all. In fact I feel for your than ever to do and speak however I would like. It is actually extremely refreshing and long overdue.

It's time for the #Lurker shout out!
We love our lurkers at #personalizedPD#ProDriven
"Hey Twitter Lurkers. I really appreciate you!
Said Bosch, every week!"
We would love to hear your thoughts. Join in, or not, it's cool.#ProDriven
A3: We have learned that the reality of trauma affects all levels of learning. We must be better informed in order to reach our students. That includes understanding our own journey as adults. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
For my PF classes we fill out the most current 1040EZ. My AP Econ looks at the nations debt and the status of the economy and various policies being passed. #prodriven#personalizedPD
A1: Get to know new excellent #edtech and tips and tricks for loved apps! My favorite new app is @wakelet - It's for curating in a storytelling logical order. Think of the awesome combo of Pinterest meets Google classroom meets Instagram! https://t.co/G0LtuYdJzG#personalizedPD
A3 I have spent the summer with my kiddos looking at the news and explaining what is happening. We have utilized online resources to help my 7 year olds understand what's going on. Planning to use the power of tech to bring these lessons to classrooms. #ProDriven#personalizedPD
Q4 What resources can you recommend for those looking to expand their scope of understanding and learn more about others this summer? #personalizedPD#ProDriven
A3. #ProDriven The news is hard to watch. Teaching in an inner city district with new leadership has been interesting. Leadership has moved from status quo to social justice and equity. I'm cautiously optimistic. #PersonalizedPD 1/2
A4: One of our best resources is sometimes overlooked. Visit your students families, write them a quick note, walk in their Neighborhoods and see what life is for them. Not to judge but to seek understanding! #personalizedPD#ProDriven

A3: It's very complicated... Dealing with incendiary kites and balloons from the Gaza strip to the south of Israel. Many many acres of crops and wildlife are burnt to ashes. When we get back to school we'll discuss possible solutions to this problem. #personalizedPD#prodriven
That's a great place to start. As educators, we cannot ignore what's going on outside of the school. Your students will appreciate you for it. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
I'm sorry if including current affairs in your personal learning and classroom instruction is offensive. THAT is true learning for me, not political. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
A5: Conversation w/Leadership Team in August about Resiliency, PBIS, and I hope to bring some basic understanding to trauma and how it affects learning. I trust our team will continue to study as we make decisions that will impact our school culture. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
A5 Twitter& Voxer....maybe a blog before school starts.Definitely going to plan a few trainings for the fall for the teachers I support. #personalizedPD#ProDriven
Powerful closing thoughts from @chrisemdin’s For White Folks Who Teach in the Hood...and the Rest of Y’all Too. Challenged to create curriculum + class environment centered in reality pedagogy.
