As a school leader during these times of rapid transition and change, you have undoubtedly been working alongside faculty and staff to help them navigate their new roles as distance educators. And yet, as a Folio school leader, you know that it’s not enough to provide emotional support and pedagogical guidance to teachers - that in order for real learning to occur, we also push teachers to pause, reflect, and make sense of the experience.

You might be wondering:

• How can I make the case to teachers for taking time to reflect when their plates are already so full?
• What sorts of questions should I ask that would encourage my teachers to reflect more holistically about the year? More narrowly about the past 8 weeks?
• How can we use these reflection processes to help us emerge from this experience as more resilient and nimble educators?

We’ll work together to address these questions and more during this 90 minute small group workshop. Participants will:

• Review adult learning principles to understand the elements of effective reflection practices and make the case for why reflection is vital for educators;
• Brainstorm potential reflection practices in small groups;
• Create and receive feedback on a draft framework for leading end-of-year reflection with your faculty and staff.
