4-part PD Sessions
Feedback
- Culturally Responsive
Teaching
- Reading material wasn't
followed
- Recommendation: photocopy
pages, read during meeting, discuss
- Group tended to focus more
on "safer subjects" such as gender discrimination versus race
- Math Discourse
- Group enjoyed activities in
which they played the role of the student
- General notes
- Timing was an issue
- Shorter time between PD
sessions to gain better traction
- PD aligned to school year
(ex. curriculum PD during the Fall)
- Some voiced they didn't
fully understand the rationale for these sessions
- Some sessions felt
disjointed
- Have a better developed plan
– possible use of non-purple Wednesdays to reflect, read, etc. on PD
material
- Have material that is
directly applicable to their teaching practice
- BLT Sub Committee to focus
on PD planning
