#personalizedPD chat. A fast-paced, fun chat to discuss personalized professional development for educators. We discuss what it is, why it's better than traditional PD, how to create personalized PD opportunities, how to scale it from individuals to districts, and how to inspire it from individuals to districts to want more and more of it. Hosted each week by Jason Bretzmann @jbretzmann and Kenny Bosch @KennyBosch and moderated each week by a guest moderator. 8pm Central each Tuesday.

Hi. I'm Jason. Author, teacher, innovation integrator, & co-host of this wonderful #personalizedPD chat. Thankful for all you amazing people. Thanks for being here.
Hello everyone. Kenny Bosch, high school history teacher in WI. Looking forward to #Thanksgiving break and kicking it off with this #personalizedPD chat is a great start.
.A1: It’s hard to include everyone-even with the increase to 280 characters, so I will just tag @KarlyMoura who has always been there whenever I need anything. She is my rock. #personalizedPD
A1: I’m #Grateful for a motivated faculty and an amazing team of life-long learners in central office and our team of administrators... #personalized PD
A2: I can fill my plate many times w/ PD that is all about CHOICE. Constant progress, Honors professionals, Ongoing, Individualized, Collaborative, Energizing.
#personalizedPD
A2: Honestly, I still love a good face to face conference...love the networking, love choosing sessions, finding great pieces to bring back to my tribe. #personalizedPD
A2: I like PD that is directly applicable to the work I am doing. Books, asking people I trust, reading blogs, Voxer, Twitter, edcamps. Love playlists, too! #personalizedPD
A2: I sometimes don't even take 1sts, but PD that I always come back for give me CHOICE, love #patioPD and #firesidePD and PD days at school where I am involved in the decisions of the process.

A2: The type of PD that is hands-on, engaging, exciting, beneficial for me and my students, teacher-friendly yet challenging, and meets the criteria for a growth mindset!#personalizedPD
A2: I could play the #personalizedPD "Game of Stories" all day to hear the stories of what teachers and other educators do in their classrooms & schools. Fun & energizing! https://t.co/VnlvSJ7Zm8
Well said. Challenges our thinking is essential. Let’s not stay in our comfort zones. Push ourselves, connect with ppl with diff POVs, & challenge status quo #personalizedPD
Agree. Game of Stories is a lot of fun. It is great to hear real stories from educators sharing their ideas they used in their classroom. #personalizedPD

A3: Some of my favorite share sessions this year have had a social/emotional focus...these sessions center on conversation and discussing real Ss scenarios #personalizedPD
A3 Teaching about the fav tools of Ss for being creative, collaborating, #pbl and the ways that we have connected globally with other classrooms and the benefits #personalizedpd
A3 I realized today I need to spend more time teaching my staff and students #infosec to help them be safe with computers and online. Just look at today: https://t.co/nqYo49FPAs#personalizedpd
.A3: The power of video. This isn’t a new concept or tool but a powerful practice. Record yourself, your Ss, your PD, ... & watch the playback to reflect and continue to refine your practice. #personalizedPD
I'd bring something for colleagues to mess with. Something hands-on #makered . Tinkering and conversation can lead to meaningful learning. #personalizedPD
A4 I would have to go with #SwimUpPD - nothing cultivates better conversations than sitting in a lukewarm tub of water with other educators #personalizedPD
You and Josh are doing great work. Having a hard time waiting for Tuesdays to hear the next episode. So much awesome is in store for us. Check out the #StoriesinEDU podcast at https://t.co/rZSYqkmMFr#personalizedPD
A3 I think I bring to the PD table the idea that we can have fun with what we are doing. Don't take yourself too seriously. Professional does not mean boring. #personalizedPD

A4 Have had the privilege of helping coordinate an annual Technology Summit #peqsummit for the last 3 years with @RichHayzler & others. Offered over 50 sessions each year w/ choice for staff - Great feedback! #personalizedpd
It's time for the #Lurker shoutout! We love our Lurkers at #personalizedPD
It's gravy, baby! Add some extra flavor to our group by joining in the discussion, or not, it's cool.
A2 I'll come back for seconds of PD that I develop for myself for what I need when I need it. When it comes down to it, we are responsible for our own learning #personalizedPD
A3 I would teach my colleagues strategies for being reflective to discover what they need and then subsequently find learning opportunities for themselves with support. #personalizedPD
Reminds me that I need to be OK sometimes with not winning. We have yet to play an entire game of Game of Stories. The conversation gets so good, the game takes a back seat. :) #personalizedPD

Hello, Paula. #patioPD & #firesidePD is PD that people host either in their home or at some public location. They work w/all educators to get exactly what everyone needs.

A5 I know they're required but I hate compliance meetings. We're moving more to online content platforms, but some are unavoidable and torturous. #personalizedpd
We put #personalizedPD learning in the teacher bathrooms for our Intermittent Bathroom Series (IBS) to take sit and get to a whole new level! #ButtsGoNumb
A6: I wish that everyone would take initiative for their own learning...there are so many amazing opportunities...our Ss need us to continually improve #personalizedpd
A6 I would love to connect, record, and credit all of the PD teachers do on their own time. We work so hard to be better, build our PLN, and bring new ideas- would be great if that counted toward our PD requirements! #personalizedpd
A5: I'm kind of living my #personalizedPD wish- connecting with others, growing together, now I just need to be able to pay for all the f2f conferences!

A6 my PD wish list is to have PD CHOICE every time, to have the opportunity to continue to work on that PD until I think it is time work on the next phase. #personalizedPD
Last year (my rookie year as principal) I literally lost every sign in sheet that mattered to my Central Office. There has got to be a better way?!!!
CRAP!
