Do you know the saying, "Work Smarter, Not Harder"? Well, ..... after attending the Learning Forward PA Institute this past Thursday with Grant Wiggins encouraging districts in Pennsylvania to work collaboratively to meet our 2013-2014 goal of fully implementing the Common Core Standards, it only seems like a natural progression to keep the conversations going by creating a wiki! "Yes, a wiki!"
A wiki is a collaborative space where everyone works together to write or brainstorm ideas, and what better way is there for participants who began capacity building conversations to continue? Talk about "building community"!
Many of the participants were district leaders, whether superintendents, curriculum directors, professional developers, instructional coaches, or teacher leaders, who came together with the same goal - learning how to move forward on this journey toward implementing the Common Core Standards. I plan to contact the current president of the organization to highly suggest the creation of such a wiki. Stay tuned!
