What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? Read about past #ukedchat at http://t.co/91TYFodT and get the new widget at http://t.co/F2EKhdBv It's 8pm. Over to @jamesdhobsonuk discussing 'Efficient ways of disseminating good practice & innovation of colleagues to others?' #ukedchat Its 8pm. How do we make our students' learning more effective by working together more? #ukedchat @LA_McDermott: @jamesdhobsonuk training humanities faculty 6 staff observing as I demonstrated thinking skills for staff training #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk #ukedchat use dig leaders to disseminate practice they witness and r versed on @jamesdhobsonuk #ukedchat need to increase bob contact time to include collaborative reflection time We use 'bring and brag' every fri in staff briefing for dept to share top ideas/resources with each other #ukedchat give staff opportunity to share findings/practice/innovation by getting each to run a 10 minute workshop at a whole school INSET #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk Grassroot movements like Teachmeet & Digital Leaders are a fun, awarding & effective way to spread best practice. #ukedchat #ukedchat sharing ideas via conversations and videoing #ukedchat more collaborative planning and team teaching is the way we do it. Departmental 'Bright ideas' meetings regularly help to share great ideas too #ukedchat #ukedchat teachmeet style staff meeing! :) @LA_McDermott Do all staff get a chance to coach their colleagues, or is it linked with experience/seniority #ukedchat @nickotkdIV love the idea of school teachmeet #ukedchat RT @preesyandleesy: #ukedchat more collaborative planning and team teaching is the way we do it. #ukedchat Couple of takeaways for schools from yesterdays Apple event: http://t.co/eA4CwECl #iPad #appletv #ukedchat we're about to embark on peer2peer videoing of lessons. We hope 2 have our pupils giv feedback on the lessons in the future Topic reminder: 'Efficient ways of disseminating good practice & innovation of colleagues to others?' #ukedchat @syded06 something i am thinking of suggesting :) #ukedchat #ukedchat a lot to be said for team teaching and mentoring. Very reflective business... @syded06 or one step further and kidsmeet if u have experienced Dig leaders #ukedchat #ukedchat brightest ideas are often from the newest/youngest staff #ukedchat we also use video coaching which allows you to look back and then share good parts of lesson with other RT @nickotkdIV: #ukedchat teachmeet style staff meeing! :) #ukedchat Throwing off the shackles of restrictive thinking tied to specific initiatives! @jamesdhobsonuk look at each pupils time in school as one universal journey rather than subjects competing for time and resources #ukedchat @preesyandleesy Collaborative planning is a bit time-consuming, maybe + bit bureaucratic! #ukedchat #ukedchat we have an outstanding teaching & learning group in r school driven by videoing of key staff by dig leaders that is used in INSET "@tcash:If hadto recommend book 4prof reading club,what would it be?title suggests! #elemchat #ozedchat #ukedchat kagan cooperative learning RT @syded06: #ukedchat brightest ideas are often from the newest/youngest staff @nickotkdIV sounds great, how often would you do this per year? #ukedchat Agreed.

Up to the minute practice and ideas #ukedchat Plan a lesson where variety is suggested team teach groups and compare and contrast and overlook new activities/styles #ukedchat If you are taking part in #ukedchat, remember to use the hashtag. RT @largerama: #ukedchat we have an outstanding teaching & learning group in r school driven by videoing of key staff by dig leaders that is used in INSET We've done x-curricular focus weeks with other dept to bring diff teachers together than usual... #ukedchat @syded06 agreed! I think that is very true, older staff often scoff at that idea but it seems to fit where I am. #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk #ukedchat staff were covered in humanities to observe so they could see examples of good practice @jamesdhobsonuk @preesyandleesy but 2 minds are better then one - can generate some great ideas, if there's time! #ukedchat #ukedchat coaching trios across faculties with a different focus each term RT @kristian: #ukedchat Couple of takeaways for schools from yesterdays Apple event: http://t.co/eA4CwECl #iPad #appletv Free training opportunities on good practice r a must too!

We're more and more involving the students, which helps them to feel appreciated too #ukedchat A strong pref for keeping discussion to working with teachers/ed professionals, not students input. That is a can of worms! #ukedchat @cherrylkd @syded06 Why is "up to the minute" a good thing? New ideas are not necessarily better than old. #ukedchat #ukedchat has anyone been really successful launching a very new concept/tech? @YuviLite Agreed! All each child needs to know is what they need to do to improve. levels are meaningless. #ukedchat Working with trainees s great way to develop practice #ukedchat @oldandrewuk Not necessarily, but being entrenched in your thinking is no good either. #ukedchat RT @peterweal: @jamesdhobsonuk @preesyandleesy but 2 minds are better then one - can generate some great ideas, if there's time! #ukedchat #ukedchat Where I work I've named some colleagues as unofficial "thinking consultants" as ideas thrive between enthusiastic staff. @syded06 #ukedchat defo with Prezi and to some extent Popplet i think an internal #TeachMeet might be gd i.e. meet ev so often with expectation that all staff will share gems of good practice #ukedchat @GeographyCarrie We are running a whole sch project with @Cherise_Duxbury.

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? 3 years #myschool #ukedchat #ukedchat its about giving time for both experiential and reflective learning, pndering, bouncing and wondering. @jamesdhobsonuk Agreed. #ukedchat @peterweal @jamesdhobsonuk @preesyandleesy trub with collab planning,at same time each week,is that it might not be your best time #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk we have a blended ks3 curriculum so we regularly do this it takes getting used to but I love it. #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @syded06 maybe not but new ideas may use new tech and engage ch more easily #ukedchat Lots of good ideas..some many involve cover for lessons...is that happening in the present climate? #ukedchat #ukedchat also i feel that school ethos is important. If collegues are willing to share then it works well. @syded06 Been pushing our VLE this year #ukedchat @syded06 yes, AFL following gr8 course, lots of sharing prac in staf meets #ukedchat Can't join ukedchat tonight so could someone keep me updated and let me know how it goes. #ukedchat At meetings give successes/failures and plan failure to success game plan as a department #ukedchat @peterweal @jamesdhobsonuk @preesyandleesy but agree, 2 minds much better than 1 :) #ukedchat @peter8green how do u persuade slt to roll with this? Or who should b persuading slt coaching / obs time is vital? #ukedchat @largerama secret to success :) #ukedchat @anhalf RT @syded06: @oldandrewuk @cherrylkd because the world is moving forward incredibly quickly and education should keep up #ukedchat <~ True @tim7168 #ukedchat What do you think "best practice" is, if it isn't something you want to be entrenched in? RT @bramleyapplecc #ukedchat its about giving time for both experiential and reflective learning, pndering, bouncing and wondering.< YES #ukedchat Twitter and @ukedchat are pretty good starting points for disseminating educational good practice! #ukedchat in the absence of LAs - groups of like minded SENCos/ subject leaders etc coming together seems essential RT @briankotts: Are girls really worse at maths than boys? http://t.co/nWofsYsD /via @Telegraph #edchat #ukedchat #mathchat #ukedchat is easy to underestimate skill/experience of older staff- Wiz ideas no good without skill to practice them.

How often at school CPD days do we Give time for success share? #ukedchat #ukedchat The best way to spread good practice is informally through working as a team. It can't be done bureaucratically. @oldandrewuk @tim7168 I think experience should not be undervalued. Old saying "throwing the baby out with the bath water" #ukedchat @oldandrewuk There are pros and cons of experience and inexperience. #ukedchat @JOHNSAYERS learning community style staff meetings let you share a problem (or rant) then a success, with all staff #ukedchat

RT @ePaceonline: #ukedchat Twitter and @ukedchat are pretty good starting points for disseminating educational good practice! @MissKaziW #ukedchat as training sch it was part of the commitment and continues to be supported by SLT. Major part of T&L and whoever leads @peterweal especially if from different subject areas too much good practice gets confined to departments @jameshobsonuk #ukedchat @MissKaziW coaching is so powerful, but reqres cover time...my HT v. Supportive in princple, causes probs tho. #ukedchat @ePaceonline I also find it useful to meet up with some friends of my PGCE course to discuss ideas and practice #ukedchat Is there a split out there between informal structures based on ethos + formal meetings/ bodies etc? Which works best #ukedchat RT @ePaceonline: #ukedchat Twitter and @ukedchat are pretty good starting points for disseminating educational good practice! RT @GeographyCarrie: Need to remember to collaborate with LSAs, Communicators and other specialist staff as much as other teachers #ukedchat @oldandrewuk Goodness - I agree with you. #ukedchat #shock RT @ethinking: #ukedchat you need a blog aggregator like http://t.co/moQ3QzbT.

I have 14 DL Pupils in my primary school. #ukedchat RT @ePaceonline: #ukedchat I also like the format of Teachmeets for dissemination of good practice, they are short lively and succinct presentations. @oldandrewuk @cherrylkd how they learn appears to be changing perhaps? #ukedchat @BehaviourA #ukedchat I was part of Action Zone, organised cross phase, cross curricular residential, it was great and teachers shared ideas @tim7168 Agreed - if you don't take risks you can't develop but don't take your eye off ensuring progress #ukedchat @SheliBB @jamesdhobsonuk @preesyandleesy good - that's the kind of planning I

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? like, too! #ukedchat @nojacko yes! The amount of ideas i get from Twitter!! #ukedchat w/o sounding naive, being positive&enthusiastic gets pple on brd far more effctvly than anythin els..its what we xpct from the chn #ukedchat @tim7168 Is it more about creating a culture where innovation and risk taking is valued? #ukedchat Agree @oldandrewuk @cherrylkd @syded06 Bit of a 'dinosaur' comment. New technology has changed the way we teach for the better. #ukedchat @oldandrewuk: #ukedchat The best way to spread good practice is informally through working as a team..." Group Work?!?! RT @jamesdhobsonuk: Not much tonight on "bringing in the paid expert" Does that still happen and does it work well? #ukedchat @tim7168 I definitely think so. Teachers can be so scared to take risks and nothing is going anywhere then #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk experts coming in can be great like @paulginnis but pseudo experts & patronising know it alls nothing but bad #ukedchat @SheliBB #ukedchat @oldandrewuk totally agree best things that have happened in my learning have been initially inspired by chat. #ukedchat T&L group put on demo workshops in after-school training based on requests. Students volunteered to stay for to demo cont. @davidhunter #ukedchat Good one!! #ukedchat Shared vision of school's purpose is key to staff sharing perhaps? School dev plans too often written by SLT Can anybody provide a link to more info on a) teachmeet b) Digital leaders? #ukedchat RT @GeographyCarrie: We use 'bring and brag' every fri in staff briefing for dept to share top ideas/resources with each other #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @cherrylkd @syded06 "Engage: to attract someone's interest/to involve someone." So not that vague really. Crucial. #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @cherrylkd How can you teach children, without engaging them? Quite difficult #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk stay around after #ukedchat and follow #dlchat for dig leaders chat. Teachmeets easily found by Google search RT @jamesdhobsonuk: Can anybody provide a link to more info on a) teachmeet b) Digital leaders? #ukedchat @Bectully you may well be right there #ukedchat As well as #ukedchat, specialist online forums are ideal places http://t.co/hdpdSrzN Nationwide input & cheap! #ukedchat staff choose which session to dip into, carousel of good practice over several evenings of staff training catered for staff @SurrealAnarchy #ukedchat Team work.

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? tricky but if social and enjoyable too with like minded..... @EricWareham more teachers need 2 embrace open door policy- 2much of a stigma attached 2 observations. Catch teachers being good! #ukedchat @ukedchat: The topic is 'Efficient ways of disseminating good practice & innovation of colleagues to others?' #ukedchat @tiggertheteacher RT @LA_McDermott: #ukedchat staff choose which session to dip into, carousel of good practice over several evenings of staff training catered for staff RT @FulfordDLs: Teachtheteachers meet 28/6 York http://t.co/crZSEkqj - This is disseminating practice at its best IMO #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk The pedestrian nature of planning is not conducive to innovation.

All we need is a TV for the day time and a tape at night.... #ukedchat How do you support colleagues who are genuinely too busy, but with clubs, extra support sessions etc. To go to anything more? #ukedchat #ukedchat - is there a systemic barrier to knowledge sharing because the school day is just too tight to allow it? @ben_solly @EricWareham #ukedchat I like that idea of catching teachers being good. There is a stigma to obs - perhaps more now linked to pm @syded06 #ukedchat Not for it's own sake. Bad ideas are usually recycled as "new".

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? teachers & schools. What needs changing? #ukedchat @ben_solly yep I 'caught' a guy in our dept doing a leadership lesson, so good we exchanged high fives and then I stole the idea #ukedchat Sports teachers for boys games are you one term football, one term rugby one term cricket/athletics? What works best #ukedchat @emmaannhardy also so many ideas. also good to see that we are doing so much good practise anyway!! #ukedchat RT @super_sixfive: #ukedchat by taking risks in the classroom, you must be prepared for things to go wrong. Teachers sometimes are not good with that thought @oldandrewuk i didn't have that kind of support :) #ukedchat @syded06 #ukedchat My point is that innovating for the sake of it, is the exact opposite of reflecting.

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? @oldandrewuk What about considering the flaws in what you're doing and innovating around them? Pretty reflective #ukedchat @nightzookeeper #ukedchat Absolutely agree @PeterSpencer88 not depressing imo.an opportunity.not qualified to say,but we don't behave like school in the modern world so... #ukedchat RT @tim7168: @oldandrewuk What about considering the flaws in what you're doing and innovating around them? Pretty reflective #ukedchat RT @tim7168: Is it more about creating a culture where innovation and risk taking is valued? #ukedchat @ben_solly shame no-one steals my ideas:( #ukedchat RT @SteveThursby: @super_sixfive We learn the most when things don't go as planned. Very little is learnt without failure. #ukedchat @hlmrmo @tim7168 #ukedchat Which is what I'm getting at. Risk-taking is not a good thing in itself. It may *sometimes* be good. RT @ePaceonline: RT @AndrewManson1: #ukedchat - is there a systemic barrier to knowledge sharing because the school day is just too tight to allow it? >agree @emmaannhardy @jamesdhobsonuk #ukedchat Yes, it does do that Emma. But I feel constrained by paper trail and planning proformas. @oldandrewuk You're assuming they're all going to be bad ideas. I'm talking about calculated risk not idiocy. #ukedchat Most positive feedback from INSET I've run is always about learning walks/obs or chance to chat to other teachers. #ukedchat @ePaceonline@AndrewManson1 #ukedchat You need willing parties to want to share and learn from others some are too busy or too selfish! Sad!! RT @tesMaths: An excellent PowerPoint on Women in Mathematics for International Women's Day http://t.co/za1EPrgl #mathchat #math #ukedchat @ben_solly @syded06 i think saying thanks when it works for you would be gratefully received #ukedchat @GeographyCarrie it's v adhoc! I teach through enquiry or #MantleOfTheExpert so if you overplan,you stop children leading the way #ukedchat RT @SteveThursby: @super_sixfive We learn the most when things don't go as planned.

As long as I am a teachr will be participating in Action Research #ukedchat @Educationchat @cherrylkd @syded06 #ukedchat If it's any comfort, I don't think there are many *bad* new ideas either. For me the key comes when a chance in lessons is taken but it is reflection & sharing with colleagues that spreads good practice #ukedchat #ukedchat I always like to ask pupils who's lessons inspires them and why ? They are at the coal face ! @oldandrewuk @tim7168 I agree, hence asking about weighing up risk and reward #ukedchat @super_sixfive Obviously not, and that will be happening to me at any moment! #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @tim7168 How else will there be development? Education doesn't remain static - old/new ideas looked at etc #ukedchat @SheliBB What is #mantleoftheexpert? #ukedchat RT @tim7168: @oldandrewuk What about considering the flaws in what you're doing and innovating around them?

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? For me it's about getting staff in a room together with no other agenda. Give them time & focus to discuss & step back. #ukedchat @herwith2boys click or tap on the hashtag #ukedchat follow the conversation and if minded to contribute remember to include hashtag What apps to install on class ipod touches? What about storybuilder? #ukedchat #edchat if we agree we learn from doing...and from mistakes, leaders must create a climate for this to happen, and then share successes #ukedchat Should the next step be research-based teacher #education ? #ukedchat #edchat #finnedchat #finnishlessons @oldandrewuk @Educationchat @cherrylkd @syded06 i think its whether they have been planned properly #ukedchat @oldandrewuk Without being prepared to take a risk you will never improve. #ukedchat @Educationchat @cherrylkd @syded06 #ukedchat I hate the way we justify ideas (usually bad) by labelling them "new" (usually incorrectly). RT @richards_james: #ukedchat I always like to ask pupils who's lessons inspires them and why ? They are at the coal face ! @largerama @danielleallen5 haha, I was just thinking that. Getting a bit off task here, might get in trouble! #ukedchat At what level does the drive to work together come from most often? Curriculum middle managers perhaps? #ukedchat #ukedchat think if we open our minds an accept that there's something we can learn from everyone makes big difference. RT @ben_sollyI love catching a teacher being good!I have taken photos & tweeted, or just embarrassed them in meetings with praise #ukedchat #ukedchat please welcome and follow @benstancombe88 to Twitter. Science teacher delving into new tech RT @jamesdhobsonuk: No a lot of discussion about ICT and dissemination, apart from twitter..... #ukedchat If you have joined #ukedchat this evening, remember to use the hashtag. @SteveThursby @PeterSpencer88 @cherrylkd #ukedchat Did you read my link? It depends what you mean by "engaged". #ukedchat Record keeping/ demonstrating to others beaurocratic. Planning collaboratively can be simple, creative and enjoyable. RT @tim7168: @oldandrewuk Without being prepared to take a risk you will never improve. #ukedchat @SheliBB @timsheringham @epaceonline #ukedchat I've learnt so much from 1 year on twitter. Amazing amount of tchrs collaborating & sharing @headteacher01 brilliant can I come and work for you! #ukedchat how do you do it? RT @cherrylkd: @SheliBB @timsheringham @epaceonline #ukedchat I've learnt so much from 1 year on twitter. Amazing amount of tchrs collaborating & sharing I get a lot of ideas from the great people around me! But also on the way to work, listening to the radio & singing my heart out! #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk I think new teachers are the most likely to come together and share ideas... #ukedchat Be prepared to fail in front of students. They appreciate knowing you are not infallible #ukedchat @ePaceonline @ben_sollyI Lovely idea - teachers are very good at praising chn and not good at praising each other. #ukedchat @peter8green @headteacher01 I agree #ukedchat #ukedchat Best CPD right here on Twitter! Makes me feel #PROUDtobeateacher :O) I am a member of a TLC and this has been a dynamic way to discuss techniques/ideas, then adopt the ones that suit you. #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @Educationchat @cherrylkd @syded06 Very good point #ukedchat @Educationchat @cherrylkd @syded06 #ukedchat A child can learn without being interested and interested without learning. @agarridodiez all innovations should be research driven.

Makes me feel #PROUDtobeateacher :O) @BehaviourA completely agree also revitalising #ukedchat #ukedchat perhaps students should be surveyed in what strategies work best for them & school training focus on results @jamesdhobsonuk @PeterSpencer88 @cherrylkd #ukedchat I explained in the link. It depends what you mean by "engage". @cherrylkd @SheliBB @timsheringham @epaceonline twitter is a fab resource, so many friendly teachers willing to share #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @educationchat @syded06 #ukedchat learning without interest will not usually become embedded though. @headteacher01 but coaching made easier by power of student voice IMO hence my tweets re dig leaders role #ukedchat @mrlockyer kids love that #ukedchat Do we share tips/ ideas etc or can we share principles/knowledge about how learning happens that might more more "transferable" ? #ukedchat RT @cherrylkd: @SheliBB @timsheringham @epaceonline #ukedchat I've learnt so much from 1 year on twitter. Amazing amount of tchrs collaborating & sharing @GeographyCarrie it's a drama technique where children take on the role of a company, to solve a problem #MantleOfTheExpert #ukedchat @Biolady99 @richards_james I'm going to try that on Monday period 5 - great idea #ukedchat @syded06 @cherrylkd #ukedchat No it doesn't.

It's called personalised CPD #ukedchat I have started filming myself each week to help me improve my questioning and talk time. #ukedchat @nacillimk @cherrylkd @syded06 #ukedchat Generally not, and certainly not as well as a teacher.

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? have it any other way in other industries #ukedchat Sure @tim7168 #ukedchat I'm suggesting that the type of engagement caused by shiny technology and the type needed to teach are distinct concepts. RT @GeographyCarrie: RT @syded06: Overcoming the fear of being 'judged' would help with diss of good practice perhaps #ukedchat <-- agree, but sometimes tough #ukedchat "Please make some new mistakes" needs to be the climate for learning, whilst trying to minimise repeating old mistakes!! @ICTmagic problem is a brill lesson for one may not work with other kids etc. but good idea in principal #ukedchat RT @oldandrewuk: @tim7168 #ukedchat I'm suggesting that the type of engagement caused by shiny technology and the type needed to teach are distinct concepts. As a leader I identify the practice I feel should be shared, and ask staff to lead a 10 min input in staff meeting TM style #ukedchat @MissRead10 @cherrylkd @shelibb @timsheringham @epaceonline Wonderful resource #ukedchat @SheliBB I often have it all in my head and can't work out how to write it down until I've tried it out #ukedchat #ukedchat I went to an open plan primary school. Teachers couldn't help observing each other #ukedchat perhaps a return? @mathsgeekpax Yet usually one of the 1st things to go! Pretty much everyone I've worked with is glad they made the effort. #ukedchat #ukedchat very interesting how all our grammar is correct even on twitter! #controlfreaks Management has an important role in spotting good practice & giving it a platform to be demonstrated to others e.g. staff meeting #ukedchat @davidhunter Sounds noisy. #ukedchat RT @cherrylkd: @SheliBB @timsheringham @epaceonline #ukedchat I've learnt so much from 1 year on twitter. Amazing amount of tchrs collaborating & sharing @headteacher01 the idea of a school teachmeet really appeals. Was it well received? #ukedchat #ukedchat - best CPD? = 15 min. forum. Once a week, 15 minutes for teachers to meet and share best practice. http://t.co/Ekee37GT @ICTmagic and I thank you for sharing all that you do!! #ukedchat RT @CalvinKipling: #ukedchat "Please make some new mistakes" needs to be the climate for learning, whilst trying to minimise repeating old mistakes!! @GeographyCarrie this might explain, not the first post though http://t.co/JaRdB2vQ #ukedchat #MantleOfTheExpert @emmaannhardy #ukedchat I'd go further than peer-to-peer. It should be friend -tofriend. @oldandrewuk @syded06 @cherrylkd How can you argue that with the Internet, mobile technology at our finger tips? #ukedchat @SwayGrantham True, and best lessons often more to do with teacher or teacher, but share it & let the teaching public decide. #ukedchat How do you use your visitors sign in book? To find out what your customers think? http://t.co/tI0qEEzp #ukedchat @BehaviourA developing a performance coaching partnership with another school is a great way to share best practice #ukedchat We had great staff-led inset on fortnightly basis after school. #ukedchat Wide variety of skills shared, each shared their strengths. @shaun_allison Is there time to ensure everyone contributes? How do you handle coasters? #ukedchat Checkout my latest blog idea for helping literacy across the curriculum #addcym #ukedchat and it is free eg http://t.co/LDO3i8lT RT @IDTmagic Sharing good practice costs nothing. You've prepared resources/plans, so pass on good stuff #ukedchat @BehaviourA @headteacher01 agreed,all the teachers in our school are paired to plan/teach a lesson together-it doesnt feel comfy #ukedchat @tim7168 @davidhunter #ukedchat You would all have to plan to do quiet things at the same time - nightmare.

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? @Vickycarl *blush* #ukedchat I would like to try learning rounds in my school. #ukedchat Lots of people seem to agree that a really powerful learning idea/tool can be explained in 10 minutes #ukedchat #ukedchat CPD TAs / LSAs feedback to staff they observe every lesson and have a valued insight @JOHNSAYERS @geographycarrie great for older children, difficult for 6-7 year olds ;) they do lead the way though! #ukedchat RT @oldandrewuk: @tim7168 #ukedchat I'm suggesting that the type of engagement caused by shiny technology and the type needed to teach are distinct concepts. Sessions ran twice over year, to give at least 2 members of dept opportunity to go. #ukedchat eg I did P4C and AfL, Hod Geog did visuals etc @GeekPeter @davidhunter @syded06 I have got a Twitter for Teachers CPD slot pencilled in for staff twilight training #ukedchat @ICTmagic Agreed, sharing ideas can lead to your own personal evolution of that idea which can be exciting #ukedchat @ben_solly Cool! #ukedchat @MrAColley Use a bit of 'think, pair, share' with them! #ukedchat I have done a show and tell ICT staff meeting and learnt from everyone around me! It was well received by all! #ukedchat @Educationchat @syded06 @cherrylkd #ukedchat I don't know what you do with the internet. I read it, sometimes listen to or watch it. Not new #ukedchat. we are trialling team teaching in the transition time in July! we all get to teach the whole KS over 3 days! @oldandrewuk #ukedchat the worry can be that a friend might not be honest because they don't want to upset/offend. A 'peer' is more removed. @SheliBB Thanks, will check it out after this session #ukedchat @GeographyCarrie reflective planning is better if you are going to use it again IMHO #ukedchat when I plan ahead, the plans always change Also had "Learning 3s" which were great (although some harder to sustain depending on staff because of time). #ukedchat Joint planning/obs @syded06 much more than listening to me drone on. staff who asked to give input feel great. all staff asked over the year #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @cherrylkd @syded06 Yes but that's never the best way. Children learn best if engaged. As adults do. #ukedchat @shaun_allison Touche! #ukedchat @nickotkdIV @geographycarrie definitely! And taking risks #ukedchat #ukedchat TeachMeets have raised the bar with sharing ideas and getting teachers talking/developing/passing on ideas @super_sixfive I always marvel at that too! Once a teacher always a pedant #ukedchat @SheliBB agree things never go to plan #ukedchat @syded06 @cherrylkd #ukedchat I suspect you do. Nobody's had to throw out a single psychology book because of new brains appearing. @SwayGrantham @ben_solly @GeekPeter @davidhunter @syded06 There still seems to be a fear of ICT in the classroom #ukedchat @emmaannhardy @tim7168 we also had a ginormous art area and music room.all reading done in a curtained carpet area #ukedchat @ben_solly @GeekPeter @davidhunter Great. Have you checked out @ICTEvangelist and @Learningspy for their twitter work #ukedchat This discussion will be archived at http://t.co/PZpWkoMa soon with summary to follow. #ukedchat @Vickycarl That's a great idea - I might use it for my next ICT staff meeting. thanks. #ukedchat @mooshtang No reason why you can't upload to a video & link to it on TES, but something like http://t.co/oCPNiLrn is great. #ukedchat @cherrylkd @educationchat @syded06 #ukedchat Depends what you mean by "interest". I have certainly learnt plenty of uninteresting things.

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? @flmagor Yes I agree. #ukedchat @emmaannhardy sometimes I feel as if we are so level based that we neglect everything else #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk I've never seen one of our SLT teach, they rarely do 'bring and brag' and SLT obs lack positive feedback :( #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk Senior leaders have a role to facilitate - those closest to action deliver. SLT can make time and give impetus #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @educationchat @syded06 life's too short for things I'm disinterested in. If no interest no learning #ukedchat @tim7168 #ukedchat That's not actually true though, is it? We often improve carefully and with due consideration. RT @herwith2boys: #ukedchat CPD needs to be formal and informal & both need to be given opportunities to happen. @oldandrewuk @cherrylkd @syded06 I'm sure you have. As have we all. But the point is it's not the 'best' way to learn. #ukedchat District-wide social network-style"activity stream" as default schools homepage to disseminate good practice http://t.co/pOtVo36P #ukedchat @herwith2boys i agree #ukedchat @ben_solly @SwayGrantham @GeekPeter @syded06 once you've 'fixed' the computers by plugging them in ;) #ukedchat @jamesdhobsonuk As a member of SMT, very hard. Schools are classic 10:80:10, and that top 10% are on here probably! #ukedchat Using #Kagan Coaching (realtime) allows in the moment corrections for greater and more successful #Cooplearning implementation #ukedchat @mrlockyer @cherrylkd @Educationchat @oldandrewuk @syded06 mine too #ukedchat @ben_solly @SwayGrantham @geekpeter @davidhunter I've had that with a proposed ipad trial - frustrating http://t.co/DE5AQjnn #ukedchat RT @Vickycarl: @ICTmagic and I thank you for sharing all that you do!! #ukedchat @GeographyCarrie @jameshobsonuk in our school SLT all teach - have to to keep credibility. practice developed together is best. #ukedchat @GeographyCarrie That's a real shame. SLT should be just that! #ukedchat #ukedchat In some ways we are swamped with ideas and good practice. Accessing what you need just when you want it is often a bigger problem @SwayGrantham Yes, new teachers have loads of ideas! Why I liked the L3s: varied backgrounds/exp, each took a turn. #ukedchat @GeographyCarrie @jamesdhobsonuk #ukedchat when SLT teach in our school they rarely practice what they preach @sccompton set up blog recently and thought of you. Still use lots of stuff from your CPD sessions. Do you follow #ukedchat ? You would like The power of games: How often do you allow your students to play games in class? Time for a more flexible curriculum? #ukedchat #edchat @eslweb @catmill @ICTmagic You can learn equally from bad and good. Reflecting on how you would do it better/as good. #ukedchat RT @oldandrewuk: @tim7168 #ukedchat That's not actually true though, is it? We often improve carefully and with due consideration. @emmaannhardy @tim7168 yeah, the usual gathering at the bin to sharpen pencils. We used to queue at the teachers desk for help too #ukedchat staff development will only be worth it if it can demonstrate an impact afterwards. #ukedchat I have just started a wiki at http://t.co/Jnhfstwj for all present to upload only their 1 best resource. #ukedchat @davidhunter @GeekPeter @syded06 oh no, some of ours wouldn't know they were broken :p it's never turned on in the first place #ukedchat #ukedchat How mint would a school be that was staffed by education people that use this hashtag on a Thursday? @herwith2boys Yes both formal and informal CPD that has impact for the children. #ukedchat @syded06 @Educationchat @cherrylkd #ukedchat I have never found a new idea in

What are the most efficient ways of disseminating the good practice and innovation of colleagues to others? teaching, only a few new ways to implement old ideas. Like our FREE events http://t.co/LDO3i8lT RT @herwith2boys #ukedchat CPD needs to be formal and informal & both need opportunities to happen @jamesdhobsonuk it would work best if it did... #ukedchat Just 5 minutes left of #ukedchat. Final thoughts? RT @dukkhaboy: #ukedchat if SLT didn't pretend to be OFSTED when visiting classrooms & instead looked for the positive they could oversee sharing One major success I've had with feedback is backchannelling - real-time feedback on ME from pupils using #etherpad #ukedchat @agarridodiez students really enjoy games-based learning #ukedchat I am going to talk to somebody different in school tomorrow and discuss learning #ukedchat RT @jamesdhobsonuk: I am going to talk to somebody different in school tomorrow and discuss learning #ukedchat @oldandrewuk With careful consideration eventually you will have to try something out without being certain of the outcome. #ukedchat RT @headteacher01: staff development will only be worth it if it can demonstrate an impact afterwards. #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @syded06 @cherrylkd Thinking keys, thinking hats, use of Smartboard, visualiser, OMS, whiteboards, counting sticks... #ukedchat Share good ideas by telling people what you are doing. Good and bad. See where the discussion leads #ukedchat @mrlockyer back channels are great and you dont need to do the tech.#ukedchat @BehaviourA agree - we all appreciate learning from someone who has proved they can do it the here and now tho. #ukedchat Staff interaction and being given a voice led to our most successful INSET recently #ukedchat @oldandrewuk Really? I'm finding new ways to teach concepts all the time - I'd be so bored otherwise! #ukedchat @GeekPeter: #ukedchat How mint would a school be that was staffed by education people that use this hashtag on a Thursday? I'd work there! RT @headteacher01: staff development will only be worth it if it can demonstrate an impact afterwards. #ukedchat RT @mrlockyer: @jamesdhobsonuk As a member of SMT, very hard.

Love 'em. http://t.co/N9UM6Vxj & http://t.co/eovUYJZ5 #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @syded06 @Educationchat @cherrylkd no new ideas? maybe need to look a little further #ukedchat @EricWareham @tim7168 #ukedchat Movement does not imply development. Education swings between old ideas. @jamesdhobsonuk Workload is a big factor - you can't do it all alone so need advice from others. Collaboration makes life easier! #ukedchat RT @jamesdhobsonuk: I am going to talk to somebody different in school tomorrow and discuss learning #ukedchat #ukedchat reading tonight think must be lucky at our school as we all seem to talk to each other! Unlucky as staff meeting goes on forever! Take a look at the #ukedchat widget. Updated weekly so you always know the host and topic http://t.co/F2EKhdBv @sciencelabman Absolutely. Slips of paper work just as well #ukedchat #lotech @GeographyCarrie @jamesdhobsonuk #ukedchat T&L should be the focus of all SLT - it drives data, attainment, behaviour
