Sometimes, it&#8217;s hard to send individuals to workshops, but at the same time, I want our new faculty to feel confident with the IB programme. I&#8217;ve worked with several colleagues on a series of 5 MYP 101 sessions to model collaboration, but I wonder if this is the best way to facilitate PD. When delivering these sessions, I still feel like the work needs to be more job-embedded rather than theoretical.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Today&#8217;s cohort session really helped me to understand the <\/span><b>&#8220;why&#8221; <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">and identify the challenges.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I&#8217;m incredibly passionate about the IB, especially teaching through inquiry, and I believe that strong collaboration only makes us better teachers. Some of the challenges that I&#8217;m facing is ensuring that the sessions are responsive to the needs of our faculty and that they add value. I&#8217;m also thinking about how to measure the efficacy\/impact of the sessions and what I can improve upon for next year.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Here are a few links to the\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/presentation\/d\/1l-Cm2Hn4EQzVA1Rw7Io781eRWV0rY7PIrIDdopJUDZQ\/edit#slide=id.g248a3bab212_0_119\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">MYP Learning Session 1 &#8211; MYP Overview<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/presentation\/d\/1YGCNOhA2JnnO1FPmucFPSldFt88_lWSkJ_EJiNJig2c\/edit#slide=id.g261d23ae8b4_0_36\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">MYP Learning Session 2 &#8211; Inquiry<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/presentation\/d\/1qAnOwX6lJn3LrUg_GbUF7hi4N04i04kkvAPiGQaqZdY\/edit#slide=id.g248a3bab212_0_119\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">MYP Learning Session 3 &#8211; Approaches to Learning<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The next two topics I will be developing are assessment and reflection.
