Welcome to #LLLchat! It's time for introductions. Any luck agreeing to disagree? Are you a devil's advocate? https://t.co/ZFVDHx0XUt

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:31 PM EST

A0: I'm Leslie, a HS Bio Teacher and host of #LLLchat. You can follow @LLLchat to see the Qs. Disagreeing makes me nervous. Let's practice?

mrsmduke Jan 19 @ 8:32 PM EST

A0: Marie from MN, I will be comfortable with agree to disagree in 2 years when I'm tenured. Until then it's zipped lips! #lllchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:33 PM EST

A0: Clint from Bettendorf, IA joining #LLLchat. English, Tech Guy, and PLC leader. Often have to play the devil's advocate or moderator

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:33 PM EST

@mrsmduke Hahaha. No tenure in int'l school, but still get very nervous about it. Also very hard not to say what I think is right. #LLLchat

The worst thing about college basketball is the referees not letting them play.

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:34 PM EST

@CRHeitz I do enjoy learning about your POV. It makes me think! #LLLchat

mrsmduke Jan 19 @ 8:34 PM EST

@lesliefarooq think if all were not tenured, it would be different. But since majority are, they get to be the opinionated ones #lllchat

@lesliefarooq The feeling is mutual! #LLLchat

Q1: Is there enough recess (this does not have to be specific to your school). Why or why not? #LLLchat https://t.co/hByyxGqKMW

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:35 PM EST

#LLLchat don't like agreeing to disagree it seems like it is avoidance. Through critical disagreement we become better informed

mrsmduke Jan 19 @ 8:35 PM EST

I read disp. name wrong, and legit thought macguyver was here for #lllchat. @GuGuyer

A1: NOPE. More free time for exploration in 6-12 is DEF. needed! #lllchat

itsmeSpiri Jan 19 @ 8:36 PM EST

Hi #LLLchat Spiri from PA G&T, I don't agree with you @lesliefarooq, not nervous to disagree, if I truly believe in it

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:36 PM EST

@mrsmduke @GuGuyer Oh well, that would have been really cool! :) I see Clint also brought some RT spam. We must be moving up! hehe #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:37 PM EST

A1: We are disconnected from the planet that supports when we stay inside so much. How to promote environmental stewardship in Ss? #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:37 PM EST

#LLLchat surely my classes are more fun than recess? Oh, I would have enough for a break & have shorter days

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:37 PM EST

That is an interesting perspective. How to accomplish this w/o hurt feelings, for e.g., between T partners? @nic_taewa #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:38 PM EST

A1: I don't know about "recess" 6-12. However, I do see a need for time to explore interests, including physical activity. #LLLchat

TechCoachZ Jan 19 @ 8:38 PM EST

A1: Disagree. Ss need to be active to learn. Even Ts cannot sit for an hour without losing interest. #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:38 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @mrsmduke Here's hoping that's why I've been getting all this junk. #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:38 PM EST

@mrsmduke I wonder how cross-curricular approaches could help us to free up some recess time? #LLLchat

itsmeSpiri Jan 19 @ 8:38 PM EST

A1) No, never thought there was enough recess, recess is hard work too, hard to be creative, innovative, hard 2 share, be w/others #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:38 PM EST

@lesliefarooq #LLLChat great point (we can still be nice). Fortunately in a school with a culture of open to learning & challenging ideas

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:39 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri I feel emotional when people don't agree with me even when I *know* I'm right. I want to retract into my shell. #LLLchat

itsmeSpiri Jan 19 @ 8:40 PM EST

I gain SO much info. from my recess observations, so important to see the real "them" #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:40 PM EST

@TechCoachZ #lllchat take the class outside every so often. In our school most stay in for recess!

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:40 PM EST

@nic_taewa Shorter days and then everybody can do what they want, even Ts! Yes! #LLLchat hehehe

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:41 PM EST

@CRHeitz Do you think that PE classes should be a rqmt/core course every year? Mine was reqd through G10. I'm old tho. #LLLchat

JoyKirr Jan 19 @ 8:41 PM EST

@lesliefarooq So sorry! Parents just left, so now I need to get to work on school work!! Enjoy the #LLLchat!

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:42 PM EST

@TechCoachZ Active inside is as good as active outside? Is 25 min enough for eating lunch and stopping by to get help, etc? #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:42 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @itsmeSpiri It is hard & I'm the first to think I'm right. I think if you build the right interactive culture... #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:42 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri There is a lot coming out about the importance of play and we all know that sitting is bad for us now. We could improve #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:42 PM EST

@lesliefarooq PE or some sort of physical class really would be beneficial for non-sports Ss. Maybe a requirement for non-athletes? #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:42 PM EST

A2: My view on this has changed a lot. My understanding of topic teaching is that it would be cross-curricular. Sounds authentic! #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:43 PM EST

Does genius hour meet the need of "recess" for high school Ss? #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:43 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @CRHeitz #lllchat a hard sell- what about health, history ... cross-curricular may be the answer to combine

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:43 PM EST

@nic_taewa Yes, it can be very delicate work to navigate the waters if hurt feelings are going to occur. #LLLchat

TechCoachZ Jan 19 @ 8:44 PM EST

@lesliefarooq It's all about activity and unstructured time. Inside or out. #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:44 PM EST

@CRHeitz #lllchat every Wednesday our school has a day for projects in which students can follow their passions.

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:44 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @nic_taewa History and English are also a natural fit... #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:44 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri That's true. They are more like themselves when they are free to make choices. No wonder #stuchoice is a thing! #LLLchat

Q2: Is subject teaching important and necessary? Why or why not? #LLLchat https://t.co/OLJ2TvAJyL

@nic_taewa @itsmeSpiri #LeadWithGiants discussed generational divides recently. How does young new T address ideas to seasoned T? #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:46 PM EST

A2: Disagree! With true collaboration, it's not that hard to meet the standards in an engaging and innovative way. #LLLchat

itsmeSpiri Jan 19 @ 8:47 PM EST

A2) I've always seen subjects as interconnected, each one touches upon each other #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:47 PM EST

@CRHeitz Yes, anyone who is not already training daily should do something active of their choosing. I like it! Hard to enforce. #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:47 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @TechCoachZ yes, I guess that goes against our school culture to bully them outside. student empowerment & litter #lllchat

@lesliefarooq @nic_taewa Ouch, man! The devil? Quality collaborations can bring reading & writing in meaningful ways #LLLchat

@nic_taewa @CRHeitz All day long? That's amazing! How long has that been going on? Curious! #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:48 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @itsmeSpiri #lllchat all about attitude. We have a 70yo who is more innovative than most young teachers

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:49 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri Would taking away structured "subjects" make collaboration easier? Or is the differentiation between Subjs needed? #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:49 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @CRHeitz #lllchat since the school's inception it was decided. Many new schools in NZ are doing similar (but different)things

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:49 PM EST

An argument to be made for any one subject to be integrated into others. Languages. Computers. Science. Math. @CRHeitz @nic_taewa #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:50 PM EST

@CRHeitz @lesliefarooq #lllchat just being cheeky. We work in cross-curricular teams so I always have an English teacher in my community

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:50 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri So true, Spiri. I taught Ecology for seven years and all other subjects fit right into it perfectly. #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:50 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @nic_taewa AH! NZ schools on the cutting edge! #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:50 PM EST

@CRHeitz You mention standards. Do Social-Emotional/Non-Cognitive Standards get included in this? #LLLchat

TechCoachZ Jan 19 @ 8:50 PM EST

A2: Depends on grade level. 6-12 requires more specialized content knowledge; however, I am a fan of standards-based grading. #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:51 PM EST

@CRHeitz @itsmeSpiri #lllchat I reserve the right to simultaneously hold both views at the same time!

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:51 PM EST

@lesliefarooq Absolutely. I think many of the 21st Century standards actually lean in this direction. #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:51 PM EST

@nic_taewa @CRHeitz I first learned about silos here and silos are alive and well here. I wonder if it's an int'l school thing? #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:52 PM EST

@CRHeitz @itsmeSpiri #lllchat We can for most of school except the final University prep year. Most school choose not to. It can be done.

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:52 PM EST

@TechCoachZ Do you think it is possible to take a topic, like ebola, and address content knowledge effectively? Touches most subjs. #LLLchat

PMcPeake1 Jan 19 @ 8:53 PM EST

#LLLchat A2 Subjects are too compartmentalized. No wonder S's feel they're learning things they'll never use.

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:53 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri teaching classical studies I can teach Greek science, philosophy, literature, history, art history, religious studies #lllchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:53 PM EST

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:54 PM EST

@CRHeitz Does your school officially use those? We do in that we discuss them, but not sure they are written in subj docs. #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:54 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @TechCoachZ #lllchat taught it last year: did medical, humanitarian, economic, ideologies. Depends on what outcomes you want

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:54 PM EST

@TechCoachZ One T that covers both? Not likely. But eliminating subjects wouldn't have to eliminate team teaching and collaboration #LLLchat

LLLchat Jan 19 @ 8:55 PM EST

Q3: Is there still a place for textbooks? Why or why not? #LLLchat Remember there's a chat about this! #DitchBook https://t.co/yqeiBinsXA

rp_elliott Jan 19 @ 8:55 PM EST

A2: It's important to teach all curricular subjects (it's the law) but they don't have to be isolated subjects, esp in elementary. #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:55 PM EST

@PMcPeake1 Agreed. Imagine the scientific method being taught as a stand-alone unit w/o context. Love of science impossible. :( #LLLchat

PMcPeake1 Jan 19 @ 8:55 PM EST

#LLLchat If retained learning comes through making connections subjects need to be blended like they are in a normal day.

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:55 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @CRHeitz #lllchat it the same across NZ. Some subjects are even ranked: eg classics/history get you into uni-others won't

TechCoachZ Jan 19 @ 8:55 PM EST

@lesliefarooq I think it can be done, but requires a form of horizontal articulation to ensure a high level of content coverage. #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:56 PM EST

@lesliefarooq Some classes are dabbling in these. The content areas aren't b/c content standards rule right now. #LLLchat

A3: We do use our textbook when it has what we need. We are online a lot: primary literature, activities, videos, current events. #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 8:57 PM EST

@nic_taewa @TechCoachZ Unstructured time, especially with #geniushour, can result in some amazing work. #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 8:57 PM EST

itsmeSpiri Jan 19 @ 8:57 PM EST

A3) I must confess, in 18 years I've never used a textbook to teach, this year I tried #epicfail #LLLchat

@rp_elliott So glad you can join us! Jump right in! #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 8:58 PM EST

A3: Hate most textbooks-one of many resources. Prefer primary documents for history. They narrow & spoon-feed learning #lllchat

Q5: Are teachers more like a fine wine or a fresh baguette? #LLLchat https://t.co/JtJTa1LoS8

@itsmeSpiri What about #EdCamp style? What about ppl connecting with Ss sharing how? What about keeping a pulse on the community? #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:10 PM EST

@CRHeitz I get it, but also reminds me of "like a room without a roof," which seems like utter nonsense. Is room thing #eduspeak? #LLLchat

A5: I saw data on a longitudinal study that defied my belief. Can't find it. I will attempt a video clip to explain. Stay tuned! #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 9:11 PM EST

@lesliefarooq #lllchat agree. We also conduct 2 professional inquiries a year where we focus on helping students. Much more important!

itsmeSpiri Jan 19 @ 9:11 PM EST

A5) Did someone say wine?! :) #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:11 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri Yes, but it can be much more expensive. @edtechfarooq figured perhaps we were all very bad at our jobs to need it. lol #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 9:11 PM EST

A5: DISAGREE Just being older and around more does not make one a better teacher. Reflection, life-long learning, & connections do. #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 9:12 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri #lllchat I guess for us, there are so many people going out to other PD & then coming back to share. Not an either or really.

TechCoachZ Jan 19 @ 9:12 PM EST

A5: I know I'm supposed to take a stance, but it totally depends on the individuals! #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 9:13 PM EST

@lesliefarooq It's a turn of phrase. "The smartest person in the room is collaboration between all the people in the room." #LLLchat

@CRHeitz I'm not knocking in house PD, that's all good, I just prefer something fresher, I like a new perspective on things #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 9:16 PM EST

@lesliefarooq #lllchat sorry, but I can't trust poor correlative quantitative research

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:17 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri @CRHeitz Why PD at all when other vocations spend a lifetime and get none or very little? #LLLchat

@nic_taewa @itsmeSpiri @edtechfarooq This can be so frustrating, especially if attendance is taken and you have to be there! #LLLchat

rp_elliott Jan 19 @ 9:17 PM EST

@LLLchat A5: New Ts are more naive and willing to try anything BUT experience is always the best educator. We're like fine wine! 🍷#LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:17 PM EST

@CRHeitz Together we're better, but in a room. I gotcha! :) #LLLchat

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 9:17 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri @lesliefarooq @edtechfarooq Ah yes, there is that conference in Hawaii that I want to go to now that I think about it #lllchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 9:18 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @itsmeSpiri Quality professionals do engage in PD one way or the other. PLN, conferences, professional reading, etc #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:18 PM EST

@TechCoachZ That's okay. Enjoy the view from the fence! Nobody really minds at #LLLchat. Proof: Check my look in the videos! haha :)

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:19 PM EST

@nic_taewa @itsmeSpiri @edtechfarooq Exactly! lol #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:19 PM EST

@nic_taewa Yes, it's not what I wanted. I am pretty sure what I saw was something I would have to buy. First I need author names. #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:20 PM EST

@CRHeitz @itsmeSpiri I was denied PD often at my old vocation: consulting. #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:21 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri @CRHeitz Yes, that's exactly what I told @edtechfarooq when he was playing devil's advocate! #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 9:21 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @itsmeSpiri But that is denied by the boss and the red tape, not by design or the profession. #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:21 PM EST

@TechCoachZ It wasn't at all what I had expected to see. It was a lot of data, many years, and a serious downward trend. #LLLchat

LQ: Is there room for start-up chats like #LLLchat or is Twitter "full?" https://t.co/7UoB3w2OZh

rp_elliott Jan 19 @ 9:22 PM EST

@CRHeitz @lesliefarooq @itsmeSpiri Pinterest for classroom stuff. Daily quality PD, right?? #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:22 PM EST

@asanchez16 Hey, Andrea. We are winding down here too! Feel free to browse and engage! :) #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:22 PM EST

I like the idea of making Ss the focus. Sometimes I feel like we can lose sight of Ss in the details. #LLLchat https://t.co/2nTPqzoMln

nic_taewa Jan 19 @ 9:11 PM EST

@lesliefarooq #lllchat agree. We also conduct 2 professional inquiries a year where we focus on helping students. Much more important!

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 9:23 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @itsmeSpiri @rp_elliott I like Pinterest for design and ideas, but not much for content. Find what you need / like. #LLLchat

#LLLChat Resource Share About Educational Twitter Chats: https://t.co/8SsEUO3JwV Remember that new Ts might not have seen this one yet!

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:23 PM EST

@CRHeitz @itsmeSpiri It wasn't ever in the budget. No overhead. Similar at the competition too. Anyone know of PD outside of Ting? #LLLchat

rp_elliott Jan 19 @ 9:23 PM EST

@LLLchat A5: Never!! Teaching sometimes feels like a job on an island. Keep the chats coming - we need support and collaboration! #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:24 PM EST

@nic_taewa It could have been, but when I search I don't find the graph. It might be a newer publication. #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:24 PM EST

LA: I wasn't sure if I should try #LLLchat. My chat mentors, including @DavisWelcome and @smgaillard, reminded me: new teachers join daily!

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 9:24 PM EST

LA: Disagree. Someone recently told me, "There's always room in the market." Find your niche and try. #LLLchat https://t.co/pi89lY5KjH

@lesliefarooq @itsmeSpiri I know @uitechforum for tech people, sales seminars, trade shows, chefs visit other restaurants, etc #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:25 PM EST

@rp_elliott @LLLchat A job on an island. I love it! hahaha Thanks for making me chuckle on an otherwise long, hard day! #LLLchat

TechCoachZ Jan 19 @ 9:25 PM EST

LA: This has been an amazing chat! You are all fantastic and this has been fun. Hope to chat with you all again soon! #LLLchat

@itsmeSpiri @rp_elliott @CRHeitz Pinterest is very cute, isn't it? I do maintain a board for edumemes there though. Good use for it #LLLchat

itsmeSpiri Jan 19 @ 9:27 PM EST

LQ) Yes, some that really challenge my thinking are on west coast time Grrrrr #nosleep #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:27 PM EST

@TechCoachZ Likewise, Larry! We appreciated chatting with you. Loved your perspective! #LLLchat

TechCoachZ Jan 19 @ 9:27 PM EST

@lesliefarooq @DavisWelcome @smgaillard Sean is an inspiration to many! Glad you were #fearless and started #LLLchat. Great work!

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:28 PM EST

@itsmeSpiri I know, or on the other side of the world, like #INZPirED! #LLLchat

CRHeitz Jan 19 @ 9:28 PM EST

Thanks for another great #LLLchat, @lesliefarooq / @LLLchat. I hope we get as good of a turnout for next week's session on at-risk Ss

TechCoachZ Jan 19 @ 9:29 PM EST

@CRHeitz Same here Clint! Looking forward to continuing to share and learn with you. #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:29 PM EST

@TechCoachZ @DavisWelcome @smgaillard Next week Clint (@CRHeitz) will host. Check him out too! #LLLchat

lesliefarooq - Moderator Jan 19 @ 9:29 PM EST

@CRHeitz @LLLchat I will set up a bunch of invites. If you do too it should be enough for a nice convo! :) #LLLchat
