Submitted by Denise Litke, Instructional Coach from PLC Institute Conference
Early
in October, I had the unexpected opportunity to attend the PLC Institute in Edmonton. Along with many of the administrators from
Foothills, I heard some amazing speakers
from Solution Tree deliver some invigorating and transforming messages around
professional learning communities.
Focused around
the three big ideas of PLCs:
focus on
learning
work collaboratively
be results oriented
the audience was
presented a variety of topics on how to develop and maintain
collaborative
teams so that we (as educators), can have a positive impact on student
learning
and close the achievement gaps in our schools.
I took the many
thoughts I had from the institute and created a modified concept map around
some key messages. I have included the
map with my understandings on the following page. How do they fit with your beliefs around
PLCs?
