"This I Believe..."
//What are your core values as you consider your new role as an instructional coach?// I believe that failure is an integral part of learning. I believe that real learning is difficult and sometimes painful. I believe that no one wants to learn something that isn't useful to their existence. I believe that learning is a state of mind, not something you passively receive. I believe that life is confusing and learning how to probelm solve is integral to manuevering through life's complexities. I believe that teachers have far more power than they realize. I believe that all teachers can learn. I believe that learning how to work together is integral for teachers and students.

Our Group's Memoirs

Me, As A Learner
The usefulness of the information or it's direct connection to my interests. If it is not applicable or something I can use, I will check out.
 * What motivates you to learn?

I must be able to communicate with others and bounce ideas off of others. I also must be able to apply the information to something in order to remember it.
 * What must you have in order for your learning to be successful?

If I am required to produce something or am part of a community effort I will pay attention.
 * What causes you to pay attention, even if the topic you’re studying is not your favorite?

I learn by doing, so if doing isn't a part of the learning I will shut down. I also will eventually shut down if my questions are not answered or tend to be vague and unclear.
 * What makes you shut down?

Keep students engaged, really engaged, in meaningful conversations and activities.
 * How can we create or avoid these conditions in our learning community?
