16:03:12 From Charles Swift : The camera on this computer faces the other direction. 16:05:10 From Alaura Carson : SLASL is a great way to begin collaborating with your school librarian and other members of your department 16:05:11 From Charles Swift : Working with people outside your curriculum specialty can really brighten and enhance what you do. 16:05:31 From Beverly Tedeschi : The resources available through OER 16:05:33 From Lisa Petrie : This collaboration is *essential*! I am in a school now where it is a bit trickier to find time to collaborate. I think STEM suffers as a result. Librarians need time to collaborate and co-teach! 16:06:27 From Charles Swift : Literacy is a great way to infuse relavence into a STEM course. 16:07:28 From lindahedrick : Working in collaboration, the librarian and the teacher really learn about what the other has to offer. 16:07:39 From Lisa Petrie : OER Commons is great, too, because it is an "idea" bank. If a librarian or teacher don't know where to start, OER gives us great ideas. 16:09:02 From Jessica Payeur : yes 16:09:05 From Lisa Petrie : A bit. 16:09:12 From Alaura Carson : yes 16:09:18 From Beverly Tedeschi : Yes 16:09:29 From lindahedrick : yes, we must create and use them in our district 16:09:59 From Charles Swift : Recently I have been hearing about them from a few different places. 16:13:33 From Lisa Petrie : Your template is great! 16:14:06 From Beverly Tedeschi : How formal does it need to be? I shared lessons and OER with members of my department, especially Biology teachers. 16:17:35 From Lisa Petrie : I think that might be Nathan! 16:17:42 From Lisa Petrie : He is trying to dial in from the road. 16:18:36 From Lisa Petrie : It lets us know if we achieved our learning objectives. 16:19:04 From Charles Swift : Reflection on the work that our students have done gives me an opportunity to make sure that we are actually meeting the goals outlined by the unit. 16:19:15 From Alaura Carson : To see if there are improvements or clarifications that can be made for students in the future and to see what the students learned. 16:20:30 From Jessica Payeur : Reflection allows us to see if students are understanding what is happening day to day. 16:20:52 From Lisa Petrie : I like the quote, "Reflection is the highest form of thought." Dewey...? If I don't reflect on something, I feel like I haven't come full circle. 16:26:58 From Lisa Petrie : Yes!! I love this! 16:30:03 From Lisa Petrie : I love the part where the librarian says that one of the teachers "participated as if she were a student." I enjoyed co-teaching this unit, but really felt luck to be a "student" in Charles and Nathan's class. They are exemplary teachers. 16:30:34 From Charles Swift : yup 16:31:04 From Beverly Tedeschi : The teacher is thinking about ways to include others and developing the unit as an interdisciplinary unit with social studies. 16:31:14 From Jessica Payeur : I really love that the teacher recognizes that the connection with the SS teacher would of enhanced the unit even more. It is really nice to be able to see that more connections would enhance the unit for the students. 16:31:17 From Alaura Carson : It is interesting to read the librarians reflection about how the two different teachers participated in the co-teaching of the anchor text. 16:32:52 From Lisa Petrie : It was really exciting to see Charles and Nathan embrace literacy standards. 16:33:02 From Charles Swift : I connected with the Math teacher mentioning "the first time", I always am excited about "the first time" because of the learning that I will expereince 16:41:02 From lindahedrick : the comments are constructive 16:41:02 From Lisa Petrie : This feedback is really specific and succinct. The second comment is also affirming, which is great. 16:41:16 From Alaura Carson : The feedback includes key words that a potential user may be looking for such as differentiated instruction and hands on. It also let the reader know that the unit is interdisciplinary. 16:41:28 From Charles Swift : They are making specific connections between the work at the comment, which I find makes the feedback more valuable. 16:46:27 From Jessica Payeur : "Alone we are smart. Together we are brilliant." -Steven Anderson 16:46:39 From Joanna Schimizzi : Ohhh Jessica!! Love that!! 16:46:48 From Lisa Petrie : Joanna, do you have one hurricane experience to share? 16:47:10 From Gail March to Amee Godwin (Privately) : How quickly can we get the video of webinar posteD? We have some teams missing tonight. 16:48:15 From Lisa Petrie : Glad all's well with you and your family! :-) 16:48:24 From Charles Swift : Bye 16:48:24 From Lisa Petrie : Thank you! 16:48:25 From lindahedrick : Thank you to Gail and Joanna for your help so far!
