del 5 al 8 de November del 2013

Lexington, KY

It is time to review the schedule for the placement of your session in the AAACE Agenda. This is the final draft of the Schedule. When you look up your name, use the detail listing to check what days/times you asked to be placed. This is a huge program and we can accommodate necessary changes in day and time now, but may not be able to do so after September 1, 2013 except in emergencies. Please carefully check your placement and send any requests to Ginger Phillips, AAACE Conference Planner with AAACE Session Change Request in the subject line. We will respond to your email, but it may take us up to a week to do so. Thanks for your help in "fine tuning" this agenda!

The Friday Roundtables: A Grassroots Model of Professional Learning and Democratic Practice

jueves, el 7 de noviembre de 2013 a las 16:30–17:45 EST
Franklin
Type of Presentation

Workshop (60-75 minutes)

Session Abstract

We present the experiences of teachers in rural Ohio who organized a grassroots learning community. Participants will engage in this democratic model of teacher learning and reflective practice.

Target Audience

Faculty development professionals and teacher educators as well as practicing teachers will be interested in this session as we will be discussing and presenting the potential impacts of a self-directed model of professional learning.

Learning Outcomes

• Participants will discuss and engage in a self-directed model of professional learning.
• Participants will discuss the educative impact of this model of learning and consider implications for their practice.

Session Description

The educators in this study came together and engaged in the hard work of any democracy: listening, arguing, debating, in a meaningful, focused and democratic learning experience they called the Friday Roundtable. This workshop presents the impact this self-directed model of professional learning had on a group of educators who were willing to allow the experience to help shape their teaching philosophy, practice and in some cases, life outlook. We will present the model and findings and then engage the participants in the model to discuss the implications for their practice. This model can serve as a vehicle for learning in other formal and informal settings.

Efforts are made to try to schedule sessions on the day preferred by the Primary Presenter, though this cannot be guaranteed. Please check your preference.
