Shawn Greencastle CSC HELLO!
R1: Empowering others means supporting them with resources and information to make informed decisions about their learning

R1: Building up those around you and allowing them to feel competent enough to complete tasks on their own and in their own way
Good evening Pam! So awesome you are with us!
R1: It means to have confidence in their abilities, to give them freedom to do, grow, learn

Jacqueline, NJ, joining the chat a few minutes late.
R1 Empowering others is stepping aside once they have the tools to do the job
R1-Empowerment is built from trust, building capacity in others to create their own journey.
Showing passion is contagious!
This is huge can't empower and then turn your backs and say you did your job. https://t.co/XKeGZgxJ5j

R1 Lance Yoder
Check out this quote: "You’ll learn that to truly empower people,…" - "The Innovator's…" https://t.co/mDsbGCoG7p
R1: Empowering learners is to give choice, make lrng relevant, listen, & allow them to explore passions (Allyson, elem p from MI)
Awesome Allyson is HERE!!! Great to have you with us!
Just like we should do the in the classroom. Facilitate the learning rather than force it. https://t.co/t4daRXyBtS
R1: Allowing others to lead the way and taking a facilitator role
Yes, this sounds so much more professional than "getting out of their way." Reason no. 117 you moderate !
Thanks! I am glad to be here.
You are too sweet, thanks for the warm welcome!
R1: Create an environment that creates both successes and failures.
The key to empowering others isn't telling--it's listening & providing opportunities for success. https://t.co/X56xynjIqf
R1: Lance Yoder

You bet! I was reading it before. The book club will encouragement to finish it. :)
So many folks want to do more...I am the cheerleader on the sidelines! Ann from Angola
It is like we've had this conversation before. :)
R2: Engagement is behavioral, empowerment is cognitive and personal.
Empowering someone else can bring out the strength of encouragement which is contagious
I believe empowerment is about building others to lead, trusting, & knowing they can lead!
R2--engagement is following. Giving the keys to the classroom is empowerment. Give Ss and Ts the power to make decisions.
R2: By sharing successful practices, networking and connecting. We need to share so that we may grow.
A2 Beyond Engagement - What M. Green said about "stepping aside once they have the tools" really speaks to this transition
Engagement is short term, empowering is long term
R2: Engagement is making learning interesting. Empowerment fosters self-driven learning to continue.
Empowering Ss is showing them possibilities beyond the content & letting them take the driver's seat to explore & apply
A2: Empowerment ensures it will continue when you are not around.
You need to excite ,becoming engaged, then it plants the seed for them to question and crave more, empowering them to want more
R2-Empowerment gets more on board, spreads the message, the love
R2: You have to have the engagement to get the long term goal of empowerment!
Trust is key. When people trust you, they are more willing to take action.
Empowerment is making the activity uncomfortable for Ss. I have that happening on a project now. I say "make a decision..."
R2: Once everyone understands the common goals, objective, and mission it is about allowing for creativity and lifelong learning
Empower so that it becomes what we do. https://t.co/8wY0rGW2LF
A2: Empowerment ensures it will continue when you are not around.
R2-Creates more leaders to get more people engaged
R2 Agreeing with you: empowerment gives someone else freedom to make decisions
Empowerment is critical thinking and teaching these skills
R2 Engaged Ss & Ts can reach mastery on a given task. Empowered Ss & Ts can take the skills learned and apply them to new tasks.
BOOM! https://t.co/YhctlKssjY
R2 Engaged Ss & Ts can reach mastery on a given task. Empowered Ss & Ts can take the skills learned and apply them to new tasks.
Exactly, . If we think of change or learning as a process, it's the next stage
R1: engagement is interest in what is being taught, empowerment is when students take control of their own learning.
R2 w/ engagement you are still in the lead & the focus is on you, reaching empowerment you step back & let others, Ss shine
R2: engagement is interest in what is being taught, empowerment is when students take control of their own learning.
I like this. https://t.co/UMotL2DthQ
R2: Engagement is making learning interesting. Empowerment fosters self-driven learning to continue.
Great visual ! It really speaks to the Sage on the Stage versus educator as facilitator
Yes! Empowering others removes the need to be front and center. We can accomplish more when we allow others to lead.
R3 I was encouraged to reflect by blogging.Terrified, fear, anxiety. Once I started I found it to be a release. Thanks
A2:Moving from engagement to empowerment allows them to empower others, making it a chain reaction fostering a sense of community
R3--I changed how I graded in my classroom. I went to an Exemplary, Proficient, or Needs Improvement mentality. Admin blessing
Yes! Important for teams of Ss & Ts https://t.co/qPaQK1GAbq
R2 w/ engagement you are still in the lead & the focus is on you, reaching empowerment you step back & let others, Ss shine
R3- starting twitter chats ;) @
R3: empowered me to participate on twitter more and it has changed my professional life.
A3 - I''ve been empowered by others trusting me to do something and also sharing out something I did.
So awesome you are sharing your journey through your blog! Awesome!!!
When kids knew expectations, they changed their attitude toward school. Allowed learning to happen
that is one of my focuses for this year, step back & be more Ss centered
R3: Helps: Allowing me to pursue passions, listening to me, trusting me. Hurts: Micro-managing, asking ques w/out wanting answers
R3Ts empowering other Ts sets a bar for Ts to empower Ss. We need to empower each other more. That takes the fear from the unknown
has that affect on people! Great example!
R3: 1st time my corp sent me to . Also, when they hired me as tech integrationist.
You are a Rockstar and your district is lucky to have you!! Thank you!
So true! https://t.co/KqcGc0ITmL
R3Ts empowering other Ts sets a bar for Ts to empower Ss. We need to empower each other more. That takes the fear from the unknown
R3:My 1st coteacher 10 years ago gave me confidence the try anything once & that was empowering for me Confidence is key
Surrounding myself with likeminded educators. When others are self driven, we empower each other. https://t.co/fMyyTtqBUU
A3: I was empowered to stop lurking and to join in on chats!
R3: Encouragement to network both within district, through Twitter, making connections where each person values another's voice

Same here ! https://t.co/YUQNw1LzXY
R3 I was encouraged to reflect by blogging.Terrified, fear, anxiety. Once I started I found it to be a release. Thanks

R3 I felt empowered by to try new district. She helped me believe I could do the job.
A2: "it's not what you do for your children, but what you have taught them to do for themselves that will make them successful"
Love this! https://t.co/Hue8ypRXnG
A2: "it's not what you do for your children, but what you have taught them to do for themselves that will make them successful"
R3-I've offered myself to other Ts, demonstrating, leading, being a sounding board
R3 I’ve felt empowered when superiors allowed student centered innovation that broke local traditions/routines. I was TRUSTED!
- I agree. These groups are made up of creative, solution-driven people who help each other out.
R3: Others have empowered me by presenting a challenge that moves me beyond my comfort zone.
R3 My 1st principal set the bar high for others. She was all abt empowerment. I thought all new Ts were supposed to dare greatly
R3 I've been empower through my Twitter PLN! This chat every week & getting involved w/ others to moderate. Helped me grow
R3: Empowered to be a mentor, but allowed to figure out my own way to empower mentee
R3: I agree that the more we learn from each other, the more empowered we are.
YES! My amazing PLN empowers me every day!
not cool. Enjoy the rest of your trip. I'll be watching the shared learning!
yes! I think we forget the power of mentors for us & ultimately the power we have to empower as mentors
R3: Fortunate to have many supportive, knowledgeable networks for librarians; have learned so much from them.
R3: help quiet voices be heard. build confidence in those not in the "rockstar" category.
So glad we have you in our district!! https://t.co/1iW8l2KtLJ
R3 I felt empowered by to try new district. She helped me believe I could do the job.
R4: Giving opportunities for teachers to lead initiatives in their school
A4: Empower Ts & Ss but providing them resources & giving them choice on how to use/apply them.
R4: Co-teaching has provided many opportunities to empower another.
R4-Through our new makerspace, we are empowering Ts & Ss to take risks, create, & try something new!
R4 Intentionally inviting including Ss, Ps, & Ts that have traditionally not been connected or involved empowers them greatly!
R4: I empower people by calling them out on Twitter to join chats because I know they have much to offer
R4 Persistence. Not giving up on when we went thru dry spells. So glad we reached this point where the network matters
R4 Persistence. Not giving up on when we went thru dry spells. So glad we reached this point where the network matters

R3: I am very fortunate to be working amongst great educators
I'm a CMT for UIndy, support student teachers, love watching them grow into wonderful educators, they teach me too!
R4: Helping Ss and Ts feel more comfortable utilizing and integrating tech in the classroom. Now they are applying and creating
R4: I love to encourage Ts to share and present their ideas. Might be at conferences or after school PD. Give opportunities.
Yes You DO!! THANKS https://t.co/FpD7ixwCnR
R4: I empower people by calling them out on Twitter to join chats because I know they have much to offer
R4: Share, help out, and have an open door policy. No problem to big, no question to small
R4: Asking rather than assuming
knowing the good intentions they have
focus on strengths
meet them where they are & then progress
R4I have a team that was terrified of virtual anything, now they bring ideas to me, that blow my mind! I am asking them now
A4: You empower others by allowing them to choice the method & path to get to the desired result.
That is so critical - celebrating successes is SO empowering!
I like that. "No question too small." Make others feel that all questions are worth your time.
R4: Sometimes empowerment starts by simply listening.
YES! I’ve learned this the hard way at times! https://t.co/NV9bcIPSWO
R4: Asking rather than assuming
knowing the good intentions they have
focus on strengths
meet them where they are & then progress
Absolutely! We learn & are empowered by it all!
That's the most important part!
R4 I am beyond excited abt the new project-student Ignite speeches. Hoping more appl come in https://t.co/NOPNGaTKhF
R4: By showing them a different perspective, provide the tools to transform practice.
R4 I like to think it is empowering when we share our failures and learn from one another.
A4: Empowering my student teacher to be a leader and encouraging her to get invovled in her school community!
Trust me, I have taken the hard path at times too. Real-life learning, right?
YES you ARE!!! A great model indeed!
Yes! Being vulnerable builds a culture of trust.
R4--when you give Ss flexibility to do a task that has suggestions but not firm guidelines is empowering
A4: giving people the opportunities to show what you know they are already capable of, so that they see it in themselves
R5: Fear of failure/taking chances.
A4:Stepping into our Makers Space in the morning is empowering and engaging! I love the energy and creativity that is happening
Empower after last HSDLead conf by showing Ss they have the power 2make social media a positive/encouraging place
This opens a door, suggest we are not above mistakes and learning
My PLN, thank God they are there !
R4 Yes, freedom to take approach not provided by teacher can be a struggle but a productive one.
R5: Can be difficult to empower others if you haven't been given that opportunity yourself.
A5--micromanaging upper administrators
R5 Fear of failure, or being put down. Realizing that everyone may not be where we are and having to pull back. Embarrassment
YES! I just love to be involved, but I need to get out of the way!
R5- Personally, the lack of confidence in myself. Or is it that I'm lacking being empowered? https://t.co/zHwO1wef85
R5 Pride, Assumptions, Antiquated School/Community traditions that don’t improve student achievement
https://t.co/b6NJTVr5ZW
R5: Emotions can be barrier..sometimes we want power. Have to learn art of empowering yourself through empowering others.
R5 Empowering others might not seem time efficient. Ss have to adjust to thinking for themselves instead of Ts directing
A5--sometimes our students are resistant to empowerment because it is uncomfortable.
Great point. It does pull us out of our comfort zones.
A5:Barriers include being able to let go of the wheel and let the Ss take the lead.
R5 What if Ss never tried for the reasons we don't. We create an atmosphere in classroom of safety shouldn't we for fellow Ts?
Differentiation ! Love it ! https://t.co/7wtdQo0tAQ
A4: You empower others by allowing them to choice the method & path to get to the desired result.
R5-It is uncomfortable to give up "control". But, if we want to grow, we must.
I hope that the team can come to the spring conference. Any chance they may want to present? https://t.co/NOPNGaTKhF
Thanks! It is always important to remind ourselves that what we do can be done by others.
A5 - barriers - fear of failure and also the myth that we are competing against each instead of part of the same effort.
Hi from Orlando Kevin! Running the Disney Princess 1/2 marathon this weekend!
R5: I'll say it-fear of going "off the test" It's a true struggle 4 Ts I hear a lot. I would love to --- but it's not on the test
R5: teachers need extra dose of patience w/Ss who don't want responsibility of empowerment
R5: Crawling up on table with idea can be barrier to empowering others...resistance to change can be too
R5 There are barriers imposed on us and barriers we create Thinking no one cares is the worst one we create.
I'm glad you said this . I'm a competitive junkie. I have to tell myself to let it go. :) https://t.co/GNPhUOBKCQ
A5 - barriers - fear of failure and also the myth that we are competing against each instead of part of the same effort.
R5: Barriers are created when it is difficult to discover what motivates various individuals.
ABSOLUTELY! https://t.co/IsyHNGs1T2
A5 - barriers - fear of failure and also the myth that we are competing against each instead of part of the same effort.
Have I mentioned that I feel so empowered to share ideas every Thursday? Empowerment leads to growth
Q6 How do we overcome these barriers so that more educators are empowered in their journey? https://t.co/uRuMHQNHwX
It's a balancing act. When to nudge forward, and when to step back. We need to know/feel the pulse/vibe of the group
R6: the more we read and learn, the more confidence we will have to push forward
R6 We step out and be brave to be different, defy the norm, forget the scores and look at what matters, the Ss.In the end I teach!
Yes! comparing ourselves can be barrier. We all have different strengths & things are never as they seem https://t.co/8HslMU7KZf
A5 - barriers - fear of failure and also the myth that we are competing against each instead of part of the same effort.

R6-It is all about leading by example. Modeling. Take a risk, share it, grow from it, repeat.
R6: Patience, but be a constant voice
A6--Its important to have support from admins. Sometimes it is taking charge and see what happens is important.
R6: I think we try to develop a collaborative environment that embraces those barriers.
BAM! https://t.co/Qj6jOb1dTr
R6 We step out and be brave to be different, defy the norm, forget the scores and look at what matters, the Ss.In the end I teach!
R6 How to overcome barriers: We ask ourselves the tough questions. We reflect. We start again with new information.
R6: We show that creating is learning & critical thinking is critical thinking & if Ss r engaged they learn way more!
R6: We reframe, find ways around barriers and empower ON!
and hear others repeat the message!
Love it, live it. https://t.co/hNOxHrtRsa
R6-It is all about leading by example. Modeling. Take a risk, share it, grow from it, repeat.
A gentle nudge from supportive admins:
Such a great point! Building the culture of empowerment is key.
R6: Celebrate the successes--no matter how small. Experience the successes with Ts and Ss.
A5--sometime our admins want to micromanage us. We have to push the envelope to make empowerment happen. It's hard but can work
R6: We overcome barriers by encouraging others to learn with us. Join in book clubs, Twitterchats, etc.
R6: Ts and Ss need to hear that a struggle is likely and natural.
RT R6: We overcome barriers by encouraging others to learn with us. Join in book clubs, Twitterchats, etc.
Sorry to all the admins here. Just speaking from my former life as one.
A6: Finding, building, and growning your PLN and contiuing to encourage others, modeling, supporting, and SHARING
R6 Confront the brutal facts in love. Start with the educator in the mirror No pink elephants.
https://t.co/vy63lyvI2X
Q6 How do we overcome these barriers so that more educators are empowered in their journey? https://t.co/uRuMHQNHwX
A6: Be collaborative, build relationships on trust, say "yes" often & "no" rarely.
Thanks for the great chat everyone, gotta run !
R6- just keep swimming, swimming!
Last reflective question coming up! Wow, this hour is going fast!
A6 - Overcome - keep connecting, be purposeful, reflect, encourage, persist, share
Can only speak for myself, but if any tchrs felt me micro-managing, please tell me. Not my goal ever! https://t.co/dv369yVjhL
A5--sometime our admins want to micromanage us. We have to push the envelope to make empowerment happen. It's hard but can work
Q7 Final “aha’s” to share? Another tidbit of advice you might share about your empowered journey? https://t.co/6ksWPL3P6J
Q6: Understand that empowerment does not have to stem from only major successes...celebrate the small victories consistently too!
Reflection isn't new, but it does the trick. Make time for it.
A6 - pictures of students doing new things - creating things - who are smiling/excited to learn - those pics break down barriers
Thank you for joining us! It was great having your voice, sharing your thoughts & ideas!
Enjoyed my first Twitter chat!

A7--empowerment can lead to a tremendous amount of growth from our stakeholders. Empowerment is knowledge and application of that
is for teachers to get out of the way of learning. a soapbox I climb up on often ~Cicero
