A1: Being able to meet a vast array of needs and explore one's passions #educoach

beckyk4304 Nov 9 @ 9:07 PM EST

A1: I think the biggest benefit is the learning is over something Ts are interested in! Unlike other PD they might have. #educoach

freidenbloom Nov 9 @ 9:07 PM EST

Awesome, will do! #educoach

In reply to @KathyPerret

123MrsSmith456 Nov 9 @ 9:07 PM EST

KathyPerret - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:09 PM EST

A2 Ensuring the sense of collective efficacy. If everyone is going their own direction, you lose the together we are better feel. #educoach

freidenbloom Nov 9 @ 9:09 PM EST

A2: To personalize effectively I have to constantly stay ahead of the curve. It becomes addicting to research and learn for sure #educoach

AndreaSchueler Nov 9 @ 9:09 PM EST

A2: time and resources to know each individual's needs #educoach

Sutterlearn Nov 9 @ 9:09 PM EST

educationhall Nov 9 @ 9:10 PM EST

LBell_Yegua Nov 9 @ 9:10 PM EST

A2 resources, time, willingness of others #educoach

kim_wakefield Nov 9 @ 9:12 PM EST

A2: challenges are also helping identify the goals with the Ts that will lead to their ideals for success #educoach

lsmith0917 - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:12 PM EST

@PrincipalJ I think it depends on your approach. Ownership in learning might actually equate to less planning #educoach

In reply to @dkreiness, @PrincipalJ

123MrsSmith456 Nov 9 @ 9:12 PM EST

A2 Challenges include finding facilitators and/or resources for the PD topics in addition to those things already mentioned. #educoach

dkreiness Nov 9 @ 9:12 PM EST

Yesterday was a huge step forward for me and my district as we had Ts choose their sessions and even ran a mini edcamp #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:12 PM EST

A3: @ end of a PD session I have Ts leave feedback of what they're still wondering on the topic and then I follow up w/ them later #educoach

PrincipalJ - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:14 PM EST

A3: We have a "catalog" of sessions throughout the year led by teachers. We call them XPDs (eXtra Prof. Dev.) #educoach

educationhall Nov 9 @ 9:14 PM EST

A3 Teachers appreciate when the work is about THEIR needs, rather than a coach's agenda. #educoach

beckyk4304 Nov 9 @ 9:14 PM EST

We actually will be doing our first Personalized PD next semester! we have some broad topics but Ts can then be more specific #educoach

dkreiness Nov 9 @ 9:15 PM EST

A3: I emailed out a coaching menu today to my Ts so we can better personalize our coaching work #educoach

educationhall Nov 9 @ 9:15 PM EST

A3 Personalized prof learning is best supported when teachers reach out to their coach with needs and questions. #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:15 PM EST

A3 One school I coached at had the expectation that all teachers observed each other 1x during the month. They could choose where. #educoach

lsmith0917 - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:15 PM EST

A3: coaching cycles, but also trying a personalized approach to our PD this year as a staff in terms of genius hour for teachers #educoach

123MrsSmith456 Nov 9 @ 9:15 PM EST

In reply to @lsmith0917

bamaguy1218 Nov 9 @ 9:19 PM EST

#educoach A2: So many Ts. So few IC's. Hard to assess needs of many. Some Ts out there could use the IC's perspective. How to find them?

literacycoach84 Nov 9 @ 9:19 PM EST

We've started Wildcat Workshops held after school during the year based on teacher need. It's an hour of PD in an area of choice. #educoach

kim_wakefield Nov 9 @ 9:19 PM EST

A4: #educoach is my personalized PD & our coaching team books studies, I'd love to attend TLC, Jim Knight, coaching sessions

A4: I love edcamps. I also can't get enough of the learning I take away from Voxer groups and Twitter chats! #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:18 PM EST

Q4: What types of personalized professional learning have you participated in? What would you like to participate in? #educoach

KathyPerret - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:21 PM EST

I've "workshoped" PD. Had a variety of stations on the topic. Ts constructed their own learning. Ex. https://t.co/DeIELjjx8z #educoach

bamaguy1218 Nov 9 @ 9:21 PM EST

#educoach A3: Good to see Ts take suggestions. Hopefully, Ss benefit. Individualized PD helps relationship with T.

beckyk4304 Nov 9 @ 9:21 PM EST

A4: I've been to a few edcamps, team book studies, Jim Knight coaching sessions #educoach

123MrsSmith456 Nov 9 @ 9:21 PM EST

A4 We have offered different levels of the same topic. Criteria were sent out and people placed themselves. #educoach

A4) NJ has just started a Lit. Coach consortium. There are over 75 coaches that come together almost every month. #educoach

lsmith0917 - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:22 PM EST

A4: entire staff is participating in personalized PD this year & it's been nice to have allotted time to learn/explore interests #educoach

beckyk4304 Nov 9 @ 9:22 PM EST

Those sound awesome! I'm jealous! #educoach

In reply to @freidenbloom

123MrsSmith456 Nov 9 @ 9:23 PM EST

A4 Conference-style PD where district presenters had a variety of workshops and Ts went. Some required, but mostly choice #educoach

freidenbloom Nov 9 @ 9:23 PM EST

A4: I facilitate online book chats within our district and invite other districts too. Great PD...maybe an opportunity for #educoach ?

KathyPerret - Moderator Nov 9 @ 9:23 PM EST

In reply to @drewprice11

freidenbloom Nov 9 @ 9:25 PM EST

A5: Very few. Broad district missions personalized to suit teacher style. #educoach

educationhall Nov 9 @ 9:26 PM EST

A5 Limitations can include time - it can help to pair teachers to "coach" each other. #educoach

CmunroOz Nov 9 @ 9:26 PM EST

A5 A limitation of personalised PD is that some teachers will pick PD like they pick movies :) #educoach

123MrsSmith456 Nov 9 @ 9:26 PM EST

A5 Ts may not always choose a need. There's a place for both reported & observed needs & for consistency in the campus/district. #educoach

beckyk4304 Nov 9 @ 9:26 PM EST

A5: Limitations- letting Ts passions and excitement towards personalized PD not get overlooked by other initiatives #educoach

bamaguy1218 Nov 9 @ 9:27 PM EST

In reply to @drewprice11

Would it be helpful for you & the principal (or whoever) to make a list of teaching domains to choose from? #educoach

A7 Admin can model flipped & blended learning strategies by reconstituting the all-important "staff meeting" times... #educoach

A7: I tried a google hangout today - where ic's read articles before meeting and we discussed learnings #educoach

teachers are given ownership with time yet follow a learning plan & share ongoing progress w/team of colleagues #educoach

In reply to @mswalker_walker

Q7: How might we help educators personalize their learning with flipped or blended learning models? #educoach

bamaguy1218 Nov 9 @ 9:39 PM EST

#educoach A6: Schools must make time for personalized PD. Hiring & training would be a plus, too.

halversonandrea Nov 9 @ 9:39 PM EST

I have something like that. Coaching is req. for all right now. Some are defensive &a in denial . #educoach

In reply to @123MrsSmith456

_CLCook Nov 9 @ 9:39 PM EST

A7: Have Ts participate in a twitter chat in the personalized PD area and reflect on what they learned #educoach

educationhall Nov 9 @ 9:42 PM EST

You can pair teachers with similar goals together. Work in 4-lesson cycles then rotate teachers. Prioritize. #educoach

In reply to @halversonandrea

123MrsSmith456 Nov 9 @ 9:43 PM EST

A7 Offer levels of training so that Ts can choose level but still be on the same topic. Makes required topic more personalized #educoach

bamaguy1218 Nov 9 @ 9:43 PM EST

#educoach A7: Modeling, easy access to references about flipped & blended, discussions with practicality & possible implementation.
