#valinchat #A3 I think innovation as the train engine. You have to feed it to move the train forward and honor those who take chances to apply creativity in their daily work


Daniel Smith from Fairfax Co. and @FCPSLBSS joining late but happy to be here! #VaLINchat


A2: I am...perhaps not doing a great job of taking care of me right now. But I am acknowledging it so I can change it. I do try to celebrate the positive with others, see the bright spots, & really importantly, connect w/ my kids and exercise their bodies and brains. #VaLINchat


A4. I've been asking that of my students a lot the last couple weeks. "Working when I want. Stopping when I am frustrated and coming back to it later. Working Outside. Working in Bed. Taking a day off and working harder the next day. Planning my own week." #VaLINchat


These are some great conversation starters,please join us. #VaLINchat

Yes, yes, yes! We need to remember that people learn because they want to gain knowledge and skill - it shouldn’t be to get a good grade! #valinchat

A5: Our mindset on grading must continue to evolve and not go back to what it was. @jvanheukelum and @Tinkhani keep that top of mind. Less is more, feedback over grades, and focus on knowledge, skills and dispositions. #Valinchat #ALPlearn



A6: lessons learned; we are in learning mode with high creativity; what do folks find works and bombs in this new landscape? #Valinchat


A4: Mass distribution of high quality learning materials on paper when the real issue is inequitable access to tech (long title). #valinchat


#valinchat helps when you use the right hashtag

#VaILNchat A5:I want to see PBL continue to engage students in authentic learning where they can see and understand the relevance



#valinchat Sidebar: It's actually my wife's birthday today and we're just waiting on the food to arrive but this has been a swell way to spend an hour. Thank you @lorimcewen and team once again.


A3 - Participate in virtual PD, do the things we have talked about doing but never have time, try not to spend too much time worrying about the what if’s and prepare high impact resources & instruction #VaLINchat


Intro Q: My name is Suyi and I serve Loudoun County Public Schools in Professional Learning. I learned that I REALLY love my work and I thrive on collaborating with others #valinchat


It begins with us not seeing schools as babysitting services. #valinchat

#VaLINchat Q6: Students are telling us they are using time differently. What might be the design implications for the school day/week/year this fall?

A4: A wondering: how are others navigating seeing artifacts of student learning and offering feedback in a way that does not utilize technology? #VaLINchat


A3: My amazing team has taken on a new project of providing learning packets to Ss PreK- 8. This is a result of inequitable distribution of tech; we want to ensure all Ss have access to a variety of learning materials. My new go-to resources are about distribution. #valinchat


I keep looking for bright spots that offer different paths and considerations for what school might be despite the pandemic -a new vid series Diverse by Design from @samchaltain @le180studio “future of school” medium.com/@samchaltain/t… @scl_va #valinchat @VA_Partners4Edu


RT @Amos_ALP: A5: Learning that happens outside of 'school' is available. The @ysc_sjc #STEM Fair was supposed to be hosted in #Edmonton. It was rapidly shifted to a virtual event available to all. #VALINchat #ALPlearn

If you haven't already, go to makeprojects.com/ysc to upload your project for the YSC Online STEM Fair. The registration period ends at 11:59 pm on May 18 – the eve of the start of the online fair.

Q1: More than ever, student choice and needs (both learning and human needs) must be honored. When students have ongoing opportunities to choose their own pathways, they are more engaged, empowered and respected. That's a pretty good recipe for innovation! #VaLINchat


#valinchat John Hendron, Director of Innovation and Strategy in @glndschools and I’d make a shout out of thanks to my parents for funding opportunities to code when it wasn’t really yet offered in schools


CASEL is updating its definition and framework to pay close attention to how SEL affirms the identities, strengths and experiences of all children, including those who have been marginalized in our education systems @caselorg @The74 the74million.org/article/niemi-… #SEL #valinchat

Final Q: I would say to “enjoy the journey” and then I would say 👇🏽 #VaLINchat

LaurenMilburn31's tweet image. Final Q: I would say to “enjoy the journey” and then I would say 👇🏽 #VaLINchat

Q6: as plans are mostly being made at the division level right now, they are the ones considering student/family/community engagement right now...I think our division is doing a great job communicating with the public - shout out to @TaraEDU #VaLINchat


Q5: I am over the phrase “the new normal”...I don’t want any of this to be the new normal. I guess I am looking at this more as a really long tunnel that we will find some light out of at some point #VaLINchat


Q4: the prospect of starting school virtually...we just have so many kids who struggle to succeed if not with our educators in person #VaLINchat


Q3: read and learn as much as I can...try to get my dissertation done so I don’t have to have it weighing on me going into this school year...help develop our master schedule in a way that is student-centered and flexible...help my boss and friend @LHSEAGLESMRCOX #valinchat


Q2: This is a great question lol. Not sure how much relaxation we will get. I hope to go to the beach for a week. Other than that I hope to exercise and practice some of my new hobbies. I’ve learned that I really enjoy learning and practicing new things. #VaLINchat


IQ: Lauren Milburn, AP at @LHSEAGLESVA , when ALL restrictions are lifted I will probably go to a big sporting event #valinchat


@lorimcewen @foss_j12 @teachlearntech thanks for a great few weeks of learning together. When do we fire #Valinchat up again?

Thanks #valinchat for coming together these past many Thursday nights to learn, share, and laugh a bit. It's been swell! Looking forward to seeing you all soon--one way or another.

Thank you so much for a spirited last #VaLINchat of the school year! Be sure to follow the learners whose insights inspired you today, as well as to thank @lorimcewen @foss_j12 @teachlearntech for moderating this spring. Learn with you soon!

FA: To the Class of 2020: You didn't cause this & you didn't ask for this, but you've shown yourselves to be adaptable & socially connected learners, friends, sons, daughters, & community members. We trust you to take care of future generations. We love and honor you. #VaLINchat

#VaLINchat Final Question (FQ) for SY 19-20: What’s one key message you want to share with the Class of 2020? Or for your students?

To the class of 2020, your resiliency during this time is so inspiring. You partnered with each other and your teachers so that your concerts, senior traditions, final shows, celebrations etc still went on. That's some pretty rad innovation! #VaLINchat


I like @shareski approach giving educators a voice via a podcast. We need to hear real stories from the communities. #valinchat

Overemphasis of teaching over learning. Makes me think of The Karate Kid... at least Mr. Miyagi was the kind of teacher who really put Daniel to work... and he learned. #vaLINchat


One of the few songs that chokes me up every time.. #valinchat

IA: Welcome to our final #Valinchat of the school year. Lori from @ALPlearn with the always thoughtful @teachlearntech and @foss_j12 What I'm really looking forward to is the big party my in-laws will host for our entire extended family. After that, Paris? :)

A6 This one is tricky. Feedback can be skewed based on who elects to speak up and their motivation (anger? add to the echo chamber? sincerity?) The key is to provide equitable access to the platform soliciting feedback. #VaLINchat

A2: This little guy is what keeps me sane in this crazy time. I think the best thing we can do for those around us is be compassionate and patient as we all adjust to the "new normal." #VALINchat

A3 #Grace is a word I'm hearing at every turn. If accountability (grades & other measures) is removed, then meet those students who show up. It doesn't feel right to stop all learning opportunities for fear that some will miss out. #VaLINchat
