@twhitford What kind of projects helped you become better instructional leaders? #mnlead

bretdom - Moderator Apr 3 @ 8:06 PM EDT

A1 We had the opportunity to learn about inter-rater reliability. My teacher obs were very touchy-feely w/o any instructional fdbck. #mnlead

robert_schuetz Apr 3 @ 8:06 PM EDT

@SupAnger I'm with you, I see some of this stuff on classic cable & slap myself in the forehead, "what was I thinking?" #mnlead

mcleod Apr 3 @ 8:06 PM EDT

@PrincipalFrench How did that help you become a better instructional leader? #mnlead

mcleod Apr 3 @ 8:07 PM EDT

Q1. We're talking INSTRUCTIONAL LEADERSHIP: What did your preservice #edadmin prep program do well? #mnlead

jenhegna Apr 3 @ 8:07 PM EDT

A1) No #edadmin prep... Just 20 years of observation, research, and experience was my formal classroom! #mnlead

amyarbogash - Moderator Apr 3 @ 8:07 PM EDT

A1 I feel like my program did a great job reaching all aspects of leadership and finding profs who could speak to each. #mnlead

mcleod Apr 3 @ 8:07 PM EDT

@mcleod I didn't know what I was missing until l learned what we need to grow as teachers. 7 years w/o that knowing. #mnlead

bergjaso Apr 3 @ 8:09 PM EDT

@clmaxa I think a huge element - we need students to be active participants in their learning #mnlead

mcleod Apr 3 @ 8:09 PM EDT
