ronaldfisher Jan 11 @ 11:08 PM EST

I'm here, 4th G teacher #utedchat

jamesballif Jan 11 @ 11:08 PM EST

GAFE Summit last summer. So many great tools to share and use with my teachers!#utedchat

BaggaleyMr Jan 11 @ 11:08 PM EST

Best PD is SHIFT Filmmaking #utedchat

NUES_Utah Jan 11 @ 11:08 PM EST

A1: I love a great presentation where I'm engaged and motivated. #utedchat

Gandersen07 Jan 11 @ 11:08 PM EST

A1: PD we did as a team was the best. Found what we needed. Used what we learned. #utedchat

qhenderson Jan 11 @ 11:09 PM EST

@gandersen07 I agree some of the best PD is when you get to work as a team. #UTEDCHAT

In reply to @Gandersen07

misterlarsen Jan 11 @ 11:09 PM EST

I was going to say this one too. It was a tough choice. I loved the hands-on experiential learning at SHIFT. #UTedChat

BaggaleyMr Jan 11 @ 11:08 PM EST

Best PD is SHIFT Filmmaking #utedchat

bwe545 Jan 11 @ 11:09 PM EST

A1 yeah, the best have always been ones that I got to choose. #utedchat

Gandersen07 Jan 11 @ 11:09 PM EST

In reply to @BaggaleyMr

DaniKSloan Jan 11 @ 11:09 PM EST

the best PD is when you can learn just one thing and then actually have time to try it. #utedchat

ronaldfisher Jan 11 @ 11:15 PM EST

A1 It has been a while since I benefited from a real PD in my school, but I got a lot out of @edcampUT learn from everybody #UTEDCHAT

A2 The purpose and the reason for being at PD, if it doesn't benefit my Ss why am I there? #utedchat

And_B_Clark Jan 11 @ 11:16 PM EST

A2: Good PD is entertaining and enjoyable. Inspires me to improve. #UTEDCHAT

mrlewisyoung Jan 11 @ 11:16 PM EST

A2: great PD engages learners, has sound theoretical underpinnings, and is sustainable throughout the year. #utedchat

Gandersen07 Jan 11 @ 11:17 PM EST

That is one reason we went #rogue with our PD. Same ol PD got boring and did not help. #utedchat

ronaldfisher Jan 11 @ 11:15 PM EST

A1 It has been a while since I benefited from a real PD in my school, but I got a lot out of @edcampUT learn from everybody #UTEDCHAT

Hey, thanks! We love teaching that class! #utedchat

In reply to @BaggaleyMr, @covili

ronaldfisher Jan 11 @ 11:17 PM EST

A2 Bad PD is when you chuck the notes into the garbage on your way out the door. #utedchat

NUES_Utah Jan 11 @ 11:17 PM EST

A2: Good PD is when you know your audience and can present material that is applicable. #UTEDCHAT

missplott Jan 11 @ 11:18 PM EST

A2: good: fun, relevant, engaging, transformative, new, exciting. Bad: boring, not applicable/practical, not organized #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Jan 11 @ 11:18 PM EST

Worst when you're excited for a GAFE PD and they start off explaining how to share a doc. Needed for some, but not all. #utedchat

In reply to @bwe545

misterlarsen Jan 11 @ 11:18 PM EST

A2: Good PD: Needs-based, hands-on, practical, relevant, differentiated, accessible for ongoing learning, challenging. #utedchat

DaniKSloan Jan 11 @ 11:19 PM EST

A2: Good PD gives you something you can do in class the next week and guide/adapt your planning well through the next year. #utedchat

missplott Jan 11 @ 11:19 PM EST

or when you don't take notes in the first place #utedchat

In reply to @ronaldfisher

qhenderson Jan 11 @ 11:19 PM EST

Been through plenty were it is techno babble to the max and it's difficult to keep up. Individualized to T's is important! #utedchat

In reply to @bwe545

jamesballif Jan 11 @ 11:19 PM EST

A2 So I shouldn't say this but the presenter makes a big difference to me! I need someone exciter to share, but not over the top.#utedchat

Gandersen07 Jan 11 @ 11:19 PM EST

A2: Can I use it tomorrow in my class. Does it work with what I am trying to accomplish. Do I think it will work. #utedchat

ronaldfisher Jan 11 @ 11:20 PM EST

There is PD and then there is presentation. PD involves bringing the audience into and becoming apart of a specific movement #utedchat

qhenderson Jan 11 @ 11:20 PM EST

Great way to get feedback next time I deliver PD. Thanks for the tip. Love it! #UTEDCHAT

In reply to @ronaldfisher

And_B_Clark Jan 11 @ 11:20 PM EST

bad PD is when you fall asleep and so does everyone else at your table. #UTEDCHAT

misterlarsen Jan 11 @ 11:20 PM EST

A2: Bad PD: Cookie-cutter, inflexible, sit and get, long… #utedchat

BaggaleyMr Jan 11 @ 11:20 PM EST

I'm totally with you on that! #utedchat

In reply to @jamesballif

bwe545 Jan 11 @ 11:20 PM EST

been there...It's frustrating #utedchat

In reply to @mrlewisyoung

mrlewisyoung Jan 11 @ 11:22 PM EST

A2: If PD centers around tech, let's collaborate on how to modify and redefine tasks, not just digitize old ones. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Jan 11 @ 11:23 PM EST

A2 Great #ProDev allows you to stretch yourself while also showing you success is possible. #UTedChat

ronaldfisher Jan 11 @ 11:23 PM EST

or spend the whole time getting everyone logged in, done that before, Ugh! #utedchat

In reply to @mrlewisyoung

qhenderson Jan 11 @ 11:24 PM EST

Q3: What PD do you feel you need right now? Why? #utedchat

misterlarsen Jan 11 @ 11:24 PM EST

THIS. Also, let’s not just teach tools. Teach how tools can be used in an authentic context to help students learn. #utedchat

mrlewisyoung Jan 11 @ 11:22 PM EST

A2: If PD centers around tech, let's collaborate on how to modify and redefine tasks, not just digitize old ones. #utedchat

lars3eb - Moderator Jan 11 @ 11:25 PM EST

Or when you don't even take notes. #UTedChat

In reply to @ronaldfisher

mrlewisyoung Jan 11 @ 11:25 PM EST

That's why SHIFT is so successful. Filmmaking is modifying writing to deepen Ss understanding of the process in a new way #utedchat

DaniKSloan Jan 11 @ 11:25 PM EST

A3: I'd love some meditation and mindfulness/productivity PD. #utedchat

misterlarsen Jan 11 @ 11:25 PM EST

A3: We are adding 6th grade, and I'm moving up! I need 6th grade Math PD! #utedchat

A3: Great tools that Ts can't live without #UTEDCHAT

mrlewisyoung Jan 11 @ 11:27 PM EST

A3: For PD already done, I need time. Time to collaborate, time to plan. Time to implement. Then time to try, reflect, and debug. #UTEDCHAT

jamesballif Jan 11 @ 11:27 PM EST

A3 I would like something with coding like using raspberries or ozmo or the tiny bots. It is very relavent for our students. #utedchat

I have a pet peeve with PD that doesn't follow up, doesn't allow time to reflect, and then see it through, so I agree TIME !!! #utedchat

A3: For PD already done, I need time. Time to collaborate, time to plan. Time to implement. Then time to try, reflect, and debug. #UTEDCHAT

Q5: How do feel about EdTech endorsements and certifications? #utedchat

qhenderson Jan 11 @ 11:42 PM EST

I love to read books not directly related to what I do and see if there is something I take into my work. I love the challenge! #UTEDCHAT

ronaldfisher Jan 11 @ 11:43 PM EST

A5 endorsements are only as good as the paper they are on, unless there is a PLN community behind it. #utedchat

NUES_Utah Jan 11 @ 11:43 PM EST

A5: We've got an endorsement here for our region that we use to get teachers to engage with tech and create with it. It's great! #UTEDCHAT
