Why are we here?


We tried something BIG as teachers, as schools, as a board.We wanted to show you what can be done when the philosophy shifts.We wanted to help connect the tools with the change in pedagogy.Throughout the hour we want to encourage people to ask questions and engage in the

discussion. You can write them on a sticky and post them, raise your hand, tweet them. Nextslide.We know we learn by taking risks, getting feedback, reflecting, and continuing withalterations. This is part of that process.Anne will be the time sergeant

If we dont model it, wecant expect it.


The success of the program was contingent on participants recognizing the power of collaboration

The positive experience teachers had working together prior to FFP made it easier to sell it students

Purposeful open minded interaction lead to a the creation of our Personal Learning Network, a concept

that we could then pass on to our students.

English

Each student earned a seperate

credit for each course.

What does cross-curricularintegration look like in

reality?


freedom to make connections between subjects subjects were complimentary, trends often emerged organically combining the subjects rather than keep them separate the challenge of careers

unconventional resources - mind shift students were not always aware of whether they were studying English/Civics/Careers
