Here is my V4.0 question<\/p>\n

How might we drive more meaningful learning for our students?<\/h3>\n

Thanks to @nblair<\/a> @jweening<\/a> and @jmedved<\/a> for your input.<\/p>\n

After a morning of deep thinking and active listening, my final question took shape and with<\/p>\n

the five why’s I realized what the urgency of my plan was.<\/p>\n

I want students to be passionate about their own learning.<\/h3>\n

My question and my urgency perfectly align with Crestwood’s mission statement which is to<\/p>\n

“Provide a secure, customized, total learning environment and community that helps each Crestwood student optimize their current and future academic and personal success as confident, accomplished, well-rounded individuals who can take their place successfully in the world.”<\/p>\n

For this year my professional goals were the following<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. To create a system where I can share my observations with my students and they can comment on them.<\/li>\n
  2. To change the name of my units from a name to a proper guiding question.<\/li>\n
  3. To start adding Project Based Units in my courses.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Thanks to Cohort 21 I was able to\u00a0link my professional\u00a0goals to my Action Plan, so I have divided my Action Plan into three different areas.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Create meaningful conversations\u00a0with my students and have them comment on them.<\/li>\n
    2. Create PBL units for some of my courses. I want to create one PBL based unit for each of my courses for the rest or the year<\/li>\n
    3. I want to share this process with the faculty of my school and create a group of teachers interested in adapting their units.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      I will be blogging throughout\u00a0the process and all your feedback is appreciated and needed.<\/p>\n
