Every chat I'm in, I leave with a ton of new ideas!
Read Write extension for Chrome--actually, we both screamed bc I'd nvr explored the tool until sitting w/her
Let’s get started. Tonight’s topic is Personalizing PD for teachers.
Yes!! Can we maybe do one on Sunday evenings? :)
Q1: What are benefits of personalized professional development for educators?
Paul from San Francisco CA
Well given your handle, you may enjoy
Prob so! I am not very fond of Voxer... :( I know. I am always the last one on the bandwagon for these new things.
A1: Adult learners need & deserve a choice in their learning, to ensure it's relevant & meaningful & meets their needs.
A1: Ts more likely to take in & apply to their setting if personalized
I love voxer, but get behind or overwhelmed by groups that have many participants.
Everyone try and help me convince to get on tonight!!! :)
A1: Learning is more likely to be implemented if teachers have choice to meet their interests or experience with a topic.
Do you like that much more better than Skype?
Absolutely agree! https://t.co/uiUMJ3gHsv
A1: Learning is more likely to be implemented if teachers have choice to meet their interests or experience with a topic.
JOIN US We need YOUR voice!
Yes, bc you can have up to 10 ppl on a hangout
Maranda Principal & SpEd director from Iowa!
A1: If it works for Ss, it works for adults. Personalized learning= building independence, ownership, and leadership capacity
I agree- choice is key! We encourage choice for S0;, should model that by doing same for Ts
Yes! Same w/ differentiation!
Hi Maranda - get much snow? Nice to see you.
Totally agree. Huge fan of Hangouts.
A1: PD needs to be intentional. Blanket approach doesn't work for students or teachers.
A1: allowing Ts to not have to fit into a one size fits all approach
VOXER IS Just too much for me. That says a lot because I love tech and love new things, but idn..
Lol Natalie! Here I am, convinced and procrastinating! I always enjoy a chat!
Great to see you again. I was more snarking on your grammar.
I feel the same- I love new techie things, but just can't get into Voxer!
And the chat feature! and I chat a lot during the day with that! :)
I did try for the first time today...modeled recording myself in front of staff.
A1: personalizing-->relevance~makes learning purposeful and beneficial to Ts and Ss
A1 Choice honors adult learners! PD shouldn't be a one size fits all approach!
It is going to be a good one today! Not the book chat week!
A1: Another huge benefit is that another outcome is a collegial team
Grammar? You should see my auto-corrected grammar.
I was trying to use it with Just not buying into Voxer yet.
Say what? I haven't heard of that.
Can someone RT the first question?
That group is too big for me. Try a couple in a group.
A1 Teacher voice builds collective responsibility and accountability to ensuring student success
What are the benefits of personalized PD?
Love We have an older model, need update. Fantastic for recording in big room w/ great audio
Great tool to record yourself for personal reflection. Or use for student presentations.
Q2: What are challenges to personalizing professional development?
Hey all, can someone retweet Q? I don't see it? Think I have tech issues :(
Q1 was What are benefits of personalized professional development for educators?
A1 We meet educators where they are & at their point of need just like we do for kids! https://t.co/5fwMsY8YMU
Q1: What are benefits of personalized professional development for educators?
A1: Personalized PD impacts motivation. We learn the most about what we want to learn about.
A2: There are many, but strategically speaking-Alignment
A2: Some leaders need to learn to give up control; need to build capacity w/in staff to provide choices; time is always a factor
Choice in learning can lead to sharing from different perspectives- so important!
A1: We have to find what motivates our inner learner. Personalized PD is powerful because everyone has different passions.
I used it for the first time with & to talk about a PD. wasn't too bad
A1: Benefits of = each individual getting what they need
Just put on the mic / tracker and away you go.
A2 The challenges are time and resources!
A2: Lack of capacity at the lead level of HOW to provide this for Ts
A1: Increased ownership when interest is genuine
A2: Planning/time implications of trying to best meet needs with intentionality and voice and choice
A2: Organization of it, freedom/trust that all will follow through, alignment to school goals.
A2 Fear of making it meaningful to everyone
A1: Personalized PD can fit the needs of the individual.
A1 You learn more if the topic is of interest to you. can give you a bookful of reasons. https://t.co/JkI9Jnlx52
Q1: What are benefits of personalized professional development for educators?
A2: Time needed to make sure multiple needs/goals are met
Is anyone else having a problem getting the questions?
A1: personalization meets needs and facilitates growth-without it PD is not appropriate for most Ts' current practice
RT Q2: What are challenges to personalizing professional development?
A2 Challenges can be in the organization and fear of letting go of some structures in the past.
Alignment is critical! If we are all lrng in diff and unconnected directions, we might have a problem.
Could just be that it goes by so fast.
A2: big challenge: # of trainers to offer choices, but bigger challenge: moving initiatives forward w/ Ts choosing dif. topics
A2 Sometimes you don't know what you don't know so you might need some guidance. I know I do. https://t.co/EEIY62FbjQ
Q2: What are challenges to personalizing professional development?
A1: So often we focus on weakness but personalized PD helps go from good to GREAT
A2: variety that applies to all grade levels - we try breakout sessions led by Ts, sometimes hard to get enough leaders!
A2: Challenge of personalized PD for leaders is figuring out what the system will look like/how to manage
A1: Catered to their individual needs and growth to best meet the needs of their students
https://t.co/R8aSRKwHkY
Q1: What are benefits of personalized professional development for educators?
No. has been tweeting out the Qs.
I'm not getting the questions
A2 It is not a once size fits all model.
A2: Time doesn't have to be a challenge if Ts are allowed to set their own goals, and figure out their plan for moving forward
A1+1 Coaching can't be 1 shoe fits all...different Ts need different support at different times
Yea there's very little showing up!
No there's very little showing up in the feed.
Some see inequity issues...some will put in a lot of time, others won't put in any.
Yes-been working on inferencing in tonight ;)
A2: The biggest challenge is being able to offer a variety of HIGH QUALITY sessions. Offering many is not enough.
I heard others mention issues with Twitter tonight. I'm just doing occasional search for Q2 or Q3 etc..
Absolutely! Would love to offer this in my district, but I understand leaders struggled to figure out the details
A2: Another challenge is planning multiple levels/options around one topic - just like it's hard for Ts. https://t.co/TEPYdRqZhj
It's not. I can't find them either. Weird.
Yes! We need to get out of people's way and let them learn the way they want to!
Yes! You said this perfectly! https://t.co/0kvg1IeheS
A2: The biggest challenge is being able to offer a variety of HIGH QUALITY sessions. Offering many is not enough.
Really? What are you using to join in? My feed is flying.

... You should be in this chat tonight!
Tweetdeck makes chats so much easier! is sending each Q- follow her to see!
-----> Q3
Q3: What successes have you had with personalized PD for teachers?
A2 Personalized PD can be perceived as resource intensive compared to trad "spray & pray" PD
Lol! Love your problem solving strategy, Barbara!
Try out tweet deck website!
A2: mindset of participants. Not all know how to switch from passive to active participation in their own growth.
A3: Edcamp-style workshops, providing a menu of choices for a day of PD, open-ended time for PD via social media
... ask teachers "what do you want to accomplish with students this year that you never have accomplished before
A3 We've had edcamp style PD with limited success. Would love to try it again. https://t.co/DGEH1k4t0k
-----> Q3
Q3: What successes have you had with personalized PD for teachers?
I LOVE this question! Student-centered learning! https://t.co/qBWRTw6Kpu
... ask teachers "what do you want to accomplish with students this year that you never have accomplished before
Working with Ts on individual basis, really seeing huge growth lately as they observe & listen to each other
A3: District "tech summits" with PLN sessions & breakouts, self-paced courses via , drop-in sessions right after school
A3: Teacher Centered, Teachers give me feedback on to what they want PD sessions on, stop by (informal) meetings. Hands on/applic
Great question to ask teachers! https://t.co/P8MMnMEZD1
... ask teachers "what do you want to accomplish with students this year that you never have accomplished before
A3 Allowing Ts to ID own needs and showing them connections to observation rubric...better buy-in for PD https://t.co/bUCmCGJPO3
-----> Q3
Q3: What successes have you had with personalized PD for teachers?
A2: self assessment and understanding needs of Ts can be challenging if PD culture has been rooted in eval
A3: Ts being able to provide exs. of celebrations of impact on Ss https://t.co/teDzSnfi9G
-----> Q3
Q3: What successes have you had with personalized PD for teachers?
Are you using TweetDeck or something similar? If not, search on Twitter for and click "live".Stay there to see. :)
A3(2) Coaching is a phenomenal tool for personalized PD- coaching cycles are a powerful way to improve T practice individually.
A3 After mentioning edcamp, I'd also say that it's important to have an attitude of "I'm going to learn something new today."
A3: Best was 2 rooms, 1 w/ those ready to explore, other with Ts wanting step by step with Ts willing to sit w/ them (+ trainer)
Search on Twitter for and click "live". Stay on that page to see it all.
any reason why the questions aren't appearing?
YESSSS! Love this! Or learn from others! We have a lot of great ideas flowing in the Teacher lounge and library b/w Ts.
WOW! You get all my badges & stickers tonight for that one. That is such a solid Q to put it on Ts plate to grow.
Absolutely! This applies to many learners, Ts and Ss! https://t.co/z3tluAjiX4
A2: mindset of participants. Not all know how to switch from passive to active participation in their own growth.
Very helpful structure to personalized professional learning! Honors where teachers are at in continuum! https://t.co/ICPLDtsTAH
A3: Best was 2 rooms, 1 w/ those ready to explore, other with Ts wanting step by step with Ts willing to sit w/ them (+ trainer)
A3: And coaching cycles - much more powerful than PD sessions, but great for following up from big group learning.
A3: success=more T investment & willingness to step outside their comfort zone bc they were choosing their own adventure in a way
I am going to log off, then back on to see if it gets better. I will look back through if I can't get it going again!
I am going to log off, then back on to see if it gets better. I will look back through if I can't get it going again!
Yes! I just tweeted the value of coaching cycles!
We had teachers share something they wanted to do or try this year and we've been working toward that. Great model!

Q4: What types of personalized PD have you participated in? What would you like to participate in?
Here is Q4 again https://t.co/1wrysrQmR5
---->Q4
Q4: What types of personalized PD have you participated in? What would you like to participate in?
Oooh, yes please summer book study! It's in my ever growing pile of "To-Reads"!
the questions aren't showing up...very little showing up in the feed
Edcamps, Colloborating with Grade level teams or content areas, etc.
A4 I loooove all things https://t.co/fK8GvhcMo3
---->Q4
Q4: What types of personalized PD have you participated in? What would you like to participate in?
A4: Twitter chats! Book studies, conferences, study groups... I'd like to continue them all. :)
would love to chat about coaching cycles sometime. Big school = LOTS of teachers
A4: Edcamp, book studies, voxer groups, webinars, twitter chats.
I wonder what is happening for people tonight. Feed is working for me.
A4: My research within my doc program was driven by my personal learning goals. I've loved book clubs & twitter chats & blogging.
I can help! I have some things shared via Google Drive!
A4: Twitter Chats! Our district recently approved a policy of Ts earning "profess. comp. pts" for participating & reflecting
A4 EdCamps, twitter chats, voxer book studies, splinter sessions at conferences. https://t.co/CuUiOC1jx7
---->Q4
Q4: What types of personalized PD have you participated in? What would you like to participate in?
A3: we had half day of choice mixed with grade alike groups in October-well received by Ts
Would love to read your research!
A4: action plans, conferences w/ choices for learning, would like mentor scenario aligned to PD needs https://t.co/FwesXrPmiQ
---->Q4
Q4: What types of personalized PD have you participated in? What would you like to participate in?
It's hard - I'm still working with just the volunteers. And I work for the whole district. All about prioritizing.
A4: I participated and presented at several dist PD days that were set up similar to a conference (program, concurrent sessions..)
Best. Question. Ever. https://t.co/EuFrvOVhsr
... ask teachers "what do you want to accomplish with students this year that you never have accomplished before
new blog on peer coaching : over 1/2 US teachers say they have never observed another teacher https://t.co/qrG2iUp5Am
A4: once upon a time, was my personalized pd! And I hope to find my way back soon.
We appreciate everyone trying to help others tonight!
I'm having a similar experience in grad class; invigorating to lead/choose topics for reading and researching
It's not a fun read, but I'm proud! It's all about PD for principals to enhance instructional leadership!
new blog on peer coaching : over 1/2 US teachers say they have never observed another teacher https://t.co/GKaMVkFUoi
I'd love to see your resources, too!
DM me and then we can go from there. Google Hangout, email, whatever works for you all! :)
If you're having issues seeing q's, do you see anything tweets? https://t.co/bPJarGUc9X
I wonder what is happening for people tonight. Feed is working for me.
We're thinking some kind of technical difficulty somewhere. There's a number of us not seeing the Qs :)
Makes you think about how often we give Ss or Ts similar opportunities!
I can tweet the rest tonight and see if it helps.
Coaching as catalyst for personalized PL & support for action post-PL = best investment school can make https://t.co/LoYMz5Cdrc
Q5: What are limitations of personalized PD?
(Do you see this?) :)
People are RTs the Qs too- it's such a weird problem tonight!
A4 pt2: I like the “mini-conference” format, but like to see more variety, across content + roles, AND with follow up coaching!
I see it. Do you see this? Silly Twitter tonight. https://t.co/3GgPv2cZLW
Q5: What are limitations of personalized PD?
(Do you see this?) :)
Totally! On the RTs I see the "Tweet not available" message :(
Let's do it! We can bring your whole state along for the book study. It'll be hella fun!
Yes. Has been my 1st experience where I was participating in what I try to model. Modeling being key
That is really weird. I've never heard of this!
A5 Sometimes hard to pinpoint exactly what is needed and where to find it. https://t.co/43MARjlesc
Q5: What are limitations of personalized PD?
(Do you see this?) :)
Maybe got put in twitter jail again?! https://t.co/Cdhq7IHLQw
Totally! On the RTs I see the "Tweet not available" message :(
A4 I love a good conference model. We choose what is needed BUT some don't choose the most helpful.
A4 - I am attempting to learn how to Twitter chat! If I can figure this out, personalized PD is wide open.
Hoping we can do this chat again soon...I'm having too much tech trouble tonight and jumping out early :( Have a good chat all!
We encourage Ts to observe, but encouraging & requiring are 2 diff things. They don't see value, they see judgement
A5: Again, I would say that alignment can be tricky b/twn Ts goals, school goals, district goals https://t.co/5mWJn8achM
Q5: What are limitations of personalized PD?
(Do you see this?) :)
another question: Name a student for whom you are working too hard.... (student progress too low for what teacher is investing)
Do you see this ?
I hope the problem isn't on my end!!!!
A5: Sometimes you don't know what you need until you see it or have a positive, unexpected experience
A5: Limitations could be time, $, staff, but really I think it's about ensuring everyone is working towards a common goal/vision
A5: Essential agreements on assessments, collaborating to maximize cross-curricular assessments. To be on the same page.
So might be in jail and we broke twitter? What a chat!
A5: limitations of personalized PD are when info/skills need to go to everyone. Content is the same, but can be dif. process
Twitter is personal, professional learning at its finest!
There needs to be a balance. Somethings are important for all! https://t.co/qegl48E4wV
A5: limitations of personalized PD are when info/skills need to go to everyone. Content is the same, but can be dif. process
By the way, I'm on tweetdeck on Chrome and think I'm seeing it all...
Just take time with it, and don't try to read every tweet, you'll drive yourself crazy.
Same here! No problems Here!
A5 The attitude that personalized PD is done by you and not to you. You must be an active participant. https://t.co/HTgS1ih8Yg
Q5: What are limitations of personalized PD?
(Do you see this?) :)
Yes! As with most things, balance is key!
Thank goodness! I was beginning to worry!
A5: The beauty of is that there are no limitations except those we impose on ourselves. Follow your dreams!
I started Twitter a year ago and have learned so much more than I expected. Stick with it; it's worth it! https://t.co/B7ptvCaNJh
A4 - I am attempting to learn how to Twitter chat! If I can figure this out, personalized PD is wide open.
This is why my new job is about differentiating between PD (common learning for all) & Prof. Growth (individualized, personalized)
I'm a tech coach, I'm used to tech issues 🙂 See you all soon!
I think this is where we often fail- on one extreme or the other- not in the middle!
A4-Twitter chats and online courses specific to my interests
Push same info out in multiple ways - model what we want to see with Diff Instruction in classrooms Diff levels too
Yes!! Same here! I was so scared and skeptical, but so glad I jumped in. Best PD. You meet some awesome people
Fantastic! https://t.co/GypQhBN54b
This is why my new job is about differentiating between PD (common learning for all) & Prof. Growth (individualized, personalized)
Alright, I have to grocery shop tonight and make food for a luncheon. See you guys next week!
When was it??? Did I miss it??
Have a great night, Had a long day and can’t keep my eyes open! Hope you can check out my blog: https://t.co/xp1fv6gbQH
Have a great night, Had a long day and can’t keep my eyes open! Hope you can check out my blog: https://t.co/xp1fv6gbQH
try getting grade level or PLC to pick a common area they want feedback on, observe to give the feedback https://t.co/nTD1w3Ex9Q
We encourage Ts to observe, but encouraging & requiring are 2 diff things. They don't see value, they see judgement
Yes! I think that's why this conversation can frustrate me - can't always be choice... Ts need the new sometimes
Q6: How might schools embed personalized PD for their faculty?
Night ! It was a great night! I have to be up early in the am and still have a todo list before bed... It never ends! :)
A6: Restructure how they use their PD days and PLC time https://t.co/L5lXKvZElD
Q6: How might schools embed personalized PD for their faculty?
A6: Survey Ts to find out interest; provide open- choice at some PDs, encourage Ts to share/ present/ collab
I see many schools having their own twitter chat and hashtag. https://t.co/kut66VtHWO
Q6: How might schools embed personalized PD for their faculty?
A4: personalized PD is to always ask how each person/situation/resource can transfer to or benefit my practice and others
I saw someone Tweet that her school gave credit for Twitter chat. Made me tear up a little with joy
A6 Give Ts a say in what they learn and how....as often as possible. https://t.co/cTGx4ihd8U
Q6: How might schools embed personalized PD for their faculty?
A6 It should be a part of every staff meeting, and the admin must participate, too. https://t.co/9QIcbivHaK
Q6: How might schools embed personalized PD for their faculty?
A6: Incorporate choice goals as part of observations and evaluations, align to personalized PD for support
Curious to hear how schools use the staff #...scheduled chats or ongoing w/ diff topics?
Hey Knikole, I was going to say that. It was amazing. Couldn't stop listening!
I've done that- I think it's about learning & about telling our own story!
A6: expect learning and sharing from all: book groups, choices within PD, apply new to their situation in PD, choices of topics
Yes! I found you and there...changed me as a coach forever.
If Twitter earned me credits, I'd have a couple doctorates by now! ;) https://t.co/Ghfa9kqP4U
I saw someone Tweet that her school gave credit for Twitter chat. Made me tear up a little with joy
A6) At 1 of my schools, my main focus is with new Ts (20). Support & building the growth-mindset, coaching, collaborative culture
That's great advice. Appreciate it. Giving Ts common ground, & letting them choose it helps so much with PD
It's so important to support our new Ts so they STAY in the profession!
I love to ask teachers what they want feedback in when we schedule the formal observation.
A6 make collaborative as well; choice doesn't need to be isolated to be personalized
I recently coached a principal about doing this & it was such a foreign concept for him.
I think with a limited audience an ongoing # would work best - tough to do it in 1 hr window
A6: Leaders in schools can open the way or lead the way for Encourage risk & give TIME
will B Tweeting learning w/ NT's 2morrow 4 an article study about the brain Hope they see benefits of Twitter 4 learning
Awesome!!!! Capacity comes from them expressing alignment b/twn goals and feedback, etc. https://t.co/LxQ5GhSiQB
I love to ask teachers what they want feedback in when we schedule the formal observation.
I'm seeing involvement from I learned from colleague. Trying to get that interaction.
Q7: How might we help educators personalize their learning with flipped or blended learning models?
I think more progress when peer is providing feedback more than taking own learning (taking is a bonus) https://t.co/EdTcil2yC3
That's great advice. Appreciate it. Giving Ts common ground, & letting them choose it helps so much with PD
Will have to check out what is
A7: I think blended PD is valuable- we need face-to-face for relationships & then online to look beyond our 4 walls
A6: Create a PD plan that allows Ts choice in how they grow, an expectation of working w/IC and a menu of coaching options
A6: Leaders can help change the culture to growth mindset & facilitate & exploration
I bet!!! It's is new territory for some, but can be full of just right amount of rigor. https://t.co/GizCkjKXTH
I recently coached a principal about doing this & it was such a foreign concept for him.
Question 7 https://t.co/HRts3uumRA
Q7: How might we help educators personalize their learning with flipped or blended learning models?
A7: I have shared videos to watch before a meeting, so our time together is on discussion.
Wow. What great things to hear Knikole. You rock.
A7 Flipping allows all to start with same foundation; then personalize responses/applications during face-to-face sessions
Well said Embed CHOICE CHOICE CHOICE.
A6 coach teachers' N the dev. of goals, then see how 2 support their growth towards those goals and develop action plans 2gether
A7: This also ties to our discussions with Better Conversations-get Ts to see what it is they need through video
A7 are all tools I use to help personalize PD for Ts. https://t.co/o3NGQLN7Sf
Q7: How might we help educators personalize their learning with flipped or blended learning models?
A7: Take larger initiative & allow Ts to choose one piece of the puzzle. Let them own that piece & give them support when needed
Q8: What take-aways do you bring with you from tonight’s chat?
Great analogy- we are all building a common puzzle, but it will not look the same!
Well, I am kind of glad the problem may not be on my end.
I saw all the ones fine and then I go to search another chat and I can't view anything! :(
A8: I want to remind myself & my colleagues to keep in mind- adults need voice, choice & reflection.
BTW...I'm getting to our last 2 questions early due to so many having twitter issues tonight.
A8) Support and resources from other amazing (es)! Will put this chat in my calendar. :)
Had a school share they used High Impact instruction & allowed Ts to choose what part they needed work on
A8 Continue giving Ts opportunity to ID what/when they learn and grow https://t.co/8m7wjG8aku
Q8: What take-aways do you bring with you from tonight’s chat?
A8 We need choice and voice with guidance to find the right PD for each individual. https://t.co/d3w3XAt5Va
Q8: What take-aways do you bring with you from tonight’s chat?
A8 continued emphasis on choice; differentiation of for Ts as we differentiate for Ss
OOh yes...I did that last year! Excellent book and divides up nicely into 3 groups.
Exactly! Teacher goal setting for student achievement should drive teacher PD https://t.co/tIJNrsNoRC
A6 coach teachers' N the dev. of goals, then see how 2 support their growth towards those goals and develop action plans 2gether
That's a great way to launch a book study, but yet make it personal. Awesome! https://t.co/fFJNHXgVAd
Had a school share they used High Impact instruction & allowed Ts to choose what part they needed work on
Just a reminder: we will be discussing Chapter 2-3 of Better Conversations by on February 10.Happy Reading!
I think you deserve at least 1 masters degree per 10,000 tweets & a Doctoral for every 10,000 followers
Then I'm almost to my 2nd doctorate!
PLC question that drives PD: What do the kids need us to learn?
A8: Take away will be to consider pushing administrators harder about how they can provide PPD for Ts
Thank you & for tonight's chat!
Q9: What future topics would you like to discuss here at ?
