4-1 Staff Development

While we're not quite all the way through the book yet... the chapter presentations have been very well done! So at this point we would like you to answer the two questions below AND comment on at least two postings. You will have until the end of April to complete this assignment.

Through the first eight chapters of How to Grade for Learning:

What have you learned?

What needs to change?

3-18 staff development

Assignment:

1. Find a blog, article, source of information, or something out there relative to your content area and add it to your "reader" -- Google, Pageflakes, etc...
2. Post a comment on the EC Perspective blog about what you've found of interest. Feel free to add a referenced quote, link, picture, or whatever.
   

TQ Session 1

Teacher Quality Professional Development Assignment (2/25/09):

1. read chapters 1 & 2
2. post 1 question or comment -- first come, first served (no duplications and that means you'll have to read through all the posts)
   
3. respond to at least 3 postings -- to a question, comment or response to your post(s)

Rules:

• think "professional development"
• (simply) agreeing or disagreeing does not a post make
• have fun
• staff will vote and be awarded for "best post" at the next session
