I wonder if we could find a way to do it - what could move to an email before/after in order to have time to share a few mins #novaedchat

In reply to @acuteteacher, @PHES_ITC

Also, building that in to our PD sessions has been priceless. Time to share how it works in your content/classes #novaedchat

A4 I like chatting with other Ts, sometimes that's when you get gems of information #Novaedchat

PHES_ITC May 10 @ 8:41 PM EDT

I completely agree. I feel like reflection/share used to be the 1st thing that used to get dropped...now i don't let it go! #novaedchat

In reply to @Techy_Margaret, @acuteteacher

Techy_Margaret May 10 @ 8:42 PM EDT

We've done learning walks this year - spend 3-5 mins in 4 colleagues rooms to see what you can learn. Sparks great conversation! #NOVAedchat

Right. If people don't get time to think and/or talk about what they're learning, it's often not going to stick. #Novaedchat

It's been discussed w/a few but I've never seen it generated. I like the idea! #NoVAedchat

A5: Positive feedback and reflection questions to help me reflect. #novaedchat

techinteaching - Moderator May 10 @ 8:45 PM EDT

I have instructions & feedback options (to share with host teacher if you're interested. We asked our Ts to do it on their own. #Novaedchat

A5 I wish there was a way to connect better across schools. Sometimes you need someone new to bounce an idea off #NoVAedchat

CHSSraHale May 10 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A5 I want to hear if they do it/what worked for them/didn't work/what the added/took away. I am dependent on others to learn. #NoVAedchat

Techy_Margaret May 10 @ 8:47 PM EDT

We've been going to see other classes in other schools and it's SO POWERFUL to ask the why and how ?s #novaedchat

techinteaching - Moderator May 10 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A5 I want to hear what I'm missing. Devil's advocate me! Ultimately, I want to improve (my already good idea). @technerdlb #novaedchat

PHES_ITC May 10 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A5: feedback about what worked or didn't, or ideas in how to take a good idea and make it better? Also, chance to reflect (4 me) #novaedchat

SeckKimberly May 10 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A5 also thinking from classroom lens helps me present ideas to teachers that stick #NoVAedchat

JTillman1999 May 10 @ 8:48 PM EDT

A5 Connections to what they already know or do. How it changes their thinking about a topic.Learn from my colleagues experieces #novaedchat

Perhaps we should make a giant #Novaedchat Google #Hangouts chat.

A5 I think I just need a support voice. With a go 4it- try it. Then after, someone I can come back to and go over MY bad & good #Novaedchat

Arrgghh Pens score! it's funny. I grew up cheering for the Pens but I'm rooting against them now #Novaedchat

A5 I think I need a little tougher skin. Feedback is good, but I tend to be a perfectionist and feel like I did something wrong. #NoVAedchat

scigates May 10 @ 8:52 PM EDT

A5 I agree about connecting with other schools. The day at Edison with our colleagues was awesome @scholarcation #novaedchat

mcarlson110 May 10 @ 8:53 PM EDT

Getting feedback from other Ts as well as admin is so helpful #novaedchat

acuteteacher May 10 @ 8:53 PM EDT

I'm curious about how principals find the $. W all the cuts and so many issues finding subs this yr it's getting so hard #novaedchat

In reply to @scigates, @scholarcation

CHSSraHale May 10 @ 8:54 PM EDT

& I need to be less direct with people & realize not everyone a) is on hyperdrive & b) doesn't want all of the feedback at once #NoVAedchat

We had sub money as part of PD plan for #FCPSon this year. I think it's going to be something we commit to moving forward tho #novaedchat
