This is collaborative ownership arouond learning. So good. I’m wondering how we can incorporate this more into our professional learning experiences…

Education is the greatest civil rights issue of our time. It will take solutions around the HOW, not words around the WHAT.

Quick Starter for a Team Meeting:
If you struggle coming up with ideas on how to keep your meetings fresh, fun and focused, stay tuned to Urban Learning.
Here is one way to jump start your meeting…
Have every team member take 3-5 minutes to independently identify their major accomplishments from the past week, their main priorities for the following week, and any requests for support from the rest of the team.
Then, do a whiparound where each team member shares their 3 buckets. Engage in quick exchanges and respond when appropriate.
Record the priorities or requests for the team to come back to at the next meeting.
If you are looking to build high levels of accountability and trust within a small team, particularly a leadership team, this might be a good tool to put into practice.
Send me questions or requests.
