1. PLP PROJECT YEAR 2 Ken Hakstol and Patrick Bohnet

2. “ How can we design problem/passion-based professional learning to engage our teachers for 21st century learners?”

3. No time for professional learning – sessions recorded and archived Don’t like to be out of the classroom so sessions are short about an hour - arrange for one sub to float to interested teachers classes Rationale for the Project This approach addresses the common concerns expressed by educators.

4. Ongoing – because the learning continues throughout the year teachers are supported in their learning over time. Reflective practice – use a Moodle LMS to build an online community to support Professional Learning

5. Having to travel to PLO sites – the online environment allows flexibility in time and location PD must be meaningful, focused yet flexible, use classroom teachers as presenters Personalizing learning for students/teachers

6. Techno phobic – have to experience it before they adopt it Environment and understanding at senior admin level-firewalls, foip, patriot act, Canadian version SOPA, copyright, digital citizenship. Change in pedagogy – moving from expert to facilitator and co-learner

7. “ON” Conference” Tune IN ON Line ON your topic ON your terms

8. Goals Provide teachers with a PLO that is delivered by teacher for teachers in a distributed learning mode. Accommodate the time and location constraints of busy professionals. Professional learning driven by personal learning needs. Learning is sustained. Support guided reflection
