Afternoon+and+Independent+Resoures

**Overview**
The afternoon portion of our MoM will be highly participant driven.


 * Individually,** each of you should consider a particular focus or objective for the afternoon time.
 * As a group,** we will determine what workshops and conversations we want to have and when to have them.

The following are some POSSIBLE workshop topics or conversations to help you think. We do not need to do all (or any) of the options listed below.


 * 1. Echo Peer Feedback Tool Overview/Practice:** Our recent round of Echo updates have greatly improved the functionality of the Peer Feedback Activity. This workshop could involve a walk-through of how to use the tool and running a sample as a group to see both a teacher and student perspective. Some support resources for this below:


 * 2. Subject Specific Conversation(s)** - Is there a particular issue/topic that you would like to discuss with other teachers in your subject area? Post your ideas here and we will work them in the afternoon planning discussion/voting.


 * 4. Subject Area Critical Friends -** have something you want feedback on, interested in having a subject-specific CF?


 * 5. How's your PLN?** - in this workshop we'll discuss personal learning networks how we stay connected and up to date and remotely sane in the overwhelming world of information.

 * 6. Reverse Instruction, Flip Thinking, VODCasting** - whatever you want to call it, more and more teachers are delivering instruction via video and using their class time differently.

Have a great idea that you just need time to implement? Have a thought partner here you want some time to work with? Here's your chance! Why is it called FedEx time? Because you have to deliver on time! (If you chose this option, we just ask that you share out what you produce at the end of our time together)

 * 8. Workshops for 21st Century Skills and SWLOCs** - our AM session focused mostly on workshops in your subject areas - here we could apply some of those same ideas to providing workshops for other learning outcomes.


 * 9. Enduring Understandings for Project Planning and Crafting Driving Questions -** Here we could look at one framework for priortizing your curricular goals and explore its ramifications for project design.


 * 10. 3 Elements of Instructional Design** - this is an emerging concept/framework for me as another way of planning and supporting students through the PBL process. A work in progress...
