A3 You literally have to teach people to problem solve. Make it a no whine zone and require people to be positive. #moedchat

@twgraham1980 Buy-in definitely isn't easy especially when it is obvious that no matter what, many operate on their own path #moedchat

A5: Leaders must get out of the office into the classrooms & lounge and take the pulse of the school; then collaboration can begin #MOedchat

cyberteacher Jan 28 @ 10:51 PM EST

A5 A leader riding on his white horse alone is NOT a change leader. A leader w/ a trailer, wagon or float in tow, are THE change. #MOedchat

A6: reflection can happen at any time you let it. It only betters the school because you find ways to improve/change. #moedchat

KeriSkeeters Jan 28 @ 10:52 PM EST

A6: Reflection should be ongoing. This helps to keep things moving in a positive and forward direction. #moedchat

A5: I truly believe involving others and having a shared vision creates that environment. There must be involvement. #moedchat

crystaslaughter Jan 28 @ 10:53 PM EST

A6 Reflection and PLN's are very important for all educators. The more we learn and reflect, the more willing we become to change. #moedchat

MsCastillosMath Jan 28 @ 10:53 PM EST

#moedchat A6: stop thinking of Ts as cogs and more of schools as a living organism!

MrRandallEdS Jan 28 @ 10:53 PM EST

#moedchat A6: Reflection should be an ongoing process for continual improvement. We are always going forward or backwards.

rgordon04 Jan 28 @ 10:53 PM EST

A6: Reflection by Ts and Ls should be as common and consistent as formative assessments are in the classroom. To guide leadership. #moedchat

marypb Jan 28 @ 10:53 PM EST

@MOedchat A6: modeling reflection for Ts is just as important as Ts modeling for students #MOedchat

A6: reflection sld be encouraged&embrace lrng ops,ppl who grow in positive direction spread & share inspiration like wildfire #moedchat

KeriSkeeters Jan 28 @ 10:54 PM EST

Reflection is tough though. I personally struggle to make the time to reflect as I should. Moving from one thing to the next #moedchat

cyberteacher Jan 28 @ 10:54 PM EST

A6 Reflection should be happening at all times, by the leader & the team. Growing & learning together make for a stronger outcome. #MOedchat

RafranzDavis Jan 28 @ 10:54 PM EST

A6 Reflection should happen as often as we breathe. Deeper learning stimulates growth. When we do that, pebbles move mountains #moedchat

TTmomTT Jan 28 @ 10:54 PM EST

A6 If Ls are willing to reflct often not just at the end, & adjust based on the reflct it will have a positive impact on everyone. #moedchat

ChantellM1 Jan 28 @ 10:54 PM EST

A6:We teach, reflection is immediate. It's sharing and synthesizing the reflection with others that has the most impact on change. #moedchat

halliesmills Jan 28 @ 10:54 PM EST

A6: Reflection should be happening constantly, both personally and with stakeholders. #moedchat

technolibrary Jan 28 @ 10:54 PM EST

A6: Also really important that district support PD for all types of leaders in district, but also all classrm teachers #moedchat

MNebel - Moderator Jan 28 @ 10:54 PM EST

A6. Reflection should occur with greater frequency than we think we really need. #moedchat

KeriSkeeters Jan 28 @ 10:55 PM EST

Yeeeeeaaahh...and that's why I feel terrible that I don't reflect enough!! :) #moedchat https://t.co/JaezrLBJzU

A6: Reflection should allow you to admit when your change needs changing, but also to celebrate successes along the way. #moedchat

RafranzDavis Jan 28 @ 10:55 PM EST

YES!!! And that leaders see professional development just as valid & valuable as we hope for teachers #moedchat https://t.co/wOfCbUhbNr

#moedchat A6: great leaders reflect in real time and R is ongoing.

MrsDesa3rdGrd Jan 28 @ 10:55 PM EST

A6 Reflection should be a constant state for the leader. When Ts see the P changing/growing, they'll be more apt to change too. #moedchat

NnealNoodle Jan 28 @ 10:55 PM EST

A6: What a powerful question. Leaders must make time for self, peer, and team-reflection. It's the true catalyst of growth. #moedchat

GeoJo22 Jan 28 @ 10:55 PM EST

A6 Carry a notebook so you can reflect on the go. Growth is change with positive direction. #moedchat

@RafranzDavis Our district does support PD for all, and it makes a huge difference. Having opportunities for growth. #moedchat

@KeriSkeeters Without reflection, I'm an empty vessel going through the motions #moedchat

TedHiff - Moderator Jan 28 @ 10:56 PM EST

A5. Allow the staff to reflect (collectively) on the state of your school's culture and climate. This will help move you forward. #moedchat

A6- reflection is constant! Reflection causes us to better ourselves, our skills, our teams, and become better for our students! !#moedchat

KeriSkeeters Jan 28 @ 10:58 PM EST

@MNebel That's exactly me - maybe I reflect more than I think. I feel like it's more active thinking than reflecting. #moedchat

MsCastillosMath Jan 28 @ 10:58 PM EST

#moedchat A6: Reflection shouldn't have to be a formal process. Don't have to write down every thought. Make mental notes and take risks!
