Maintain the Momentum: Making Professional Learning Stick

Sarah Valter3 Comments

When attending conferences and workshops, we retain only a fraction of what we see and hear from the presenters, no matter how amazing they are. It is only through a process of intentional reflection and sharing that we can leverage and expand our new learning to impact our entire school system.

Who is the star of your slice today? Is it a person? A pet? An event?

I’ve used crowdsourcing in writing instruction here and there, but this was the first project I designed and taught using the strategy as a foundation for our work. The verdict? Crowdsourcing improves writing and engages students. In this post, I’ll share our process, and I hope others will find ideas and inspiration.
