Purpose

This transition prepares participants for a set of asynchronous activities, providing them with information about the assignment, their role, and the support available to them.

Objectives

  • Participants have developed a run-of-show and tech plan for their lesson.
  • Participants have developed contingency plans for short extensions or questions for deeper thinking if their lesson goes more quickly than anticipated.
  • Participants have a plan for formative assessment during the lesson.
  • Participants make sure everyone in the teaching group has a role
  • See the big picture of Unit 1
  • Share gots and needs for the day and take the daily survey

Remarks

In addition to the Unit 1 Wrap-up Video and Module 1 surveys that we just saw in the PLACE, this asynchronous session has 55 minutes of time for you to finish lesson planning. You should create a detailed agenda for teaching your lesson.

Using slides, review the outline of TLO proces

  • When they will teach their lesson
  • 40 minutes to teach part of the lesson
  • Lesson Tips (Activity Packet Pages 11-14)
  • Try a new teaching practice
  • Everyone needs to have an equal role in the teaching of the lesson. Be aware that sometimes the most engaging lessons might not have much for teachers to do besides circle the room as support. That is ok!
  • Be ready to share with the group your Insights, Advice, Perspective, and Practice

Facilitator Tip

During the asynchronous session, you will likely want to initially keep the web conference open so participants can work together and get help and also offer a later office hours for participants who want to work together later. You should be supporting participants and creating breakout rooms as necessary.

Producer Tip

During the asynchronous break, make certain to assign host privileges to the facilitator or producer who will be online. This is necessary to create breakout rooms for groups wishing to work together.

(3 minutes) Give the Assignment

Remarks

In a moment, we are going to release you for asynchronous work. During this time, you will work with your group to design a 40 minute TLO lesson. As you plan, you should be filling in steps 2,3, and 4 on pages 11-14 of the Activity Packet.

You should also consider what directions you would like to give the producer for your lesson. For instance, decide when you will need breakout rooms, for how long you will need them for, and how many people you will place in them.

In a moment, we will put you in breakout rooms to either plan, or discuss when this evening you will meet to plan. We (the facilitators) will stay on to assist you for the next two hours. We will also be on later tonight from 6-8 to help.

If your group chooses to meet at a different time, make sure that you discuss what platform you will use, and exchange contact information so that you can meet. We cannot leave this call open for you to go use breakout rooms while we are not here.

Turn on your camera and give a thumb's up so we know everyone is on board and knows what they are doing. Once all thumbs are up, we will put you in breakout rooms to plan with your groups. If you need assistance, just reach out by calling for help.

When you are done or if you decide to work together later, you can simply leave the call.

Asynchronous (70 minutes)

(55 minutes) Lesson Planning

Teachers should work in their lesson groups to design a 40 minute TLO lesson.

Do This

  • As you plan, fill out steps 2, 3, and 4 on page 11 - 14 of Activity Packet
  • Fill out your Producer Needs Form.

(10 minutes) Unit 1 Wrap-Up and Discussion

Overview

In this activity, you will watch a video that provides insight into the lessons from Unit 1 that you will not experience in this program. As Unit 1 contains a variety of types of activities, you will also reflect on how these variants will impact your class and adjustments you may want to consider.

Do This

  • Watch the Unit 1 Wrap-Up video (3:42).
  • Consider the discussion prompts below and add your reflections to the discussion forum. We encourage you to add to the discussion by also replying to other participant posts when appropriate.

Discussion Prompts:

  • What about Unit 1 will be most engaging for your students?
  • Are your students expecting to come into a course that has a mostly unplugged first unit? How will you address those expectations? What modifications might you need to make to meet your local needs?

(5 minutes) Module 1 Wrap-Up

Overview

In order to maximize your experience in the professional learning program, it is important that you provide timely, ongoing feedback.

Do This

  • Complete the Gots and Needs request as described by your facilitator(s). The facilitator(s) will respond to them throughout the workshop.
