13 Dialogue Structures
Whether you are planning your next presentation, workshop, or classroom experience, these 13 Dialogue Structures will support engagement and high levels of dialogue for the content learned.
If you are leading a workshop, using these structures can surface new ideas and questions. For those leading meetings, these structures are a great way to generate thinking and make connections. And if you’re leading in the classroom, these tools can amplify student voice.
Take a look at these dialogue structures from Unmistakable Impact and prepare your next learning experience with these protocols.
Asynchronous Learning: Radical Learners
Video is Rocket Fuel for Learning
Real learning doesn’t start until you start using video to watch yourself. We are convinced that if you make video a part of your own learning, coaching, or evaluation process it will dramatically improve the quality of professional development and as a result teachers will learn more and, consequently, students will learn more.
In this asynchronous course, Jim Knight explains different ways video can be used as rocket fuel for learning by coaches, by teachers to improve their own practice, by teams, or by principals as part of the teacher evaluation process.
