How do you learn alongside with staff OR get out of the way! teacher collaborative inquiry ---> sharing stories ---> f2f or online

coaching questions / reflective prompts ---> questions that dig deeper

spontaneous 1:1 ---> “got a minute” and the response is always “how can I help

small group ---> must be meaningful and purposeful

DIY ---> allow, recognize & celebrate LET IT GO! LET IT FLOW!

learn with kids differently & make it visible --->student bloggers, GAFE

twitter ---> at mention staff via my twitter, school twitter

power of play ---> muddle, wonder & explore ---> LET IT GO! LET IT FLOW!

edcamp style learning ---> UNstaff meeting - LET IT GO! LET IT FLOW!

FLIP IT ---> do this first individually & then together

wondering out loud & alone ---> in many ways ---> EMBRACE MISTAKES

book or blog talks ---> blend f2f & online

technology is a must not an option ---> still have a focus --->GAFE, blog & so, so much more!

smackdown ---> Sharing of a website, tech tool or resource!

learning protocols - online and onground ---> chalk talk, give one, get one, where do you stand

In our GDoc, let’s list together how to create a “no opt out – engage everybody focus”.

You had me at choice.

Relationships Matter Most● teacher to student● student to student● staff to staff

Knowing each other:

interestsstrengths

needs

ALWAYS ASK: Lisa’s Burning Questions

How do I as your principal and co-learner know about and support the team and individual teacher collaborative inquiries that are happening throughout the school year?

How do I become an active participant that supports the learning needs of teacher teams and individual staff?

How do we create structures and processes that open up the collaborative teacher inquiries for all to share, learn from and celebrate?

Where are the barriers? What gets in the way?

How do you show your "connectedness"?

Are you intentional and consistent about what you do?Do you role model in visible ways?Do you intentionally position things for change?Where do you lean: towards anchors or change?Are you reflective?Do you engage with wider collaboration?

Cultivate Your Being Online

Building a Collaborative Learning Culture ● learn alongside with each other - LEARNING FIRST ● instrument learning spaces - TECHNOLOGY - GIVE TEACHER TECH! ● no opt out - ENGAGE EVERYBODY● pick one or two - Google Docs focus● f2f learning sessions ● learn in groups that make sense continuous learning mode● informal 1:1 sessions ● be sure to play - tinker different points of entry● personal check-ins with each other ● celebrate growth● stay the course; welcome the resistance - it takes time - be there for them● integrate in meaningful & purposeful ways - real-life problem-solving that

make a difference in the learning & working ● learn first, lead second - learner, coach & then a leader
