Wait...let me clarify. I love our Secondary Collaborative meetings. Even though this one started with a wake-up call that hearkened back to the hot topic at our last meeting about how others perceive their roles, it was possibly one of my favorite meetings yet! Every other month, our Collaborative meets face-to-face. The meetings are three hours long, but they fly by! This month, I shared iorad and genially (which I wrote about last month) and dipped into the survey data from the beginning of the year. The data about each of the member of the group. I asked each person to tell me their top two all-time favorite movies. One of the social learning tasks was for them to analyze their choices - connecting themes and other similarities. I brought it tools that analyzed their choices to see what their "personality profile" might be based on their movies. Then I had them flip over the card they had where there were two MORE movies. I had them repeat the analysis - and then try to guess who in the room chose those movies. It was fun and got them talking to folks that they may not communicate with regularly. In true Jeannie fashion, it was also a way to create groups for the next activity. They examined resources, they played a gif game to talk to share ideas and strategies for "appsmashing" Google tools, and - based on the meeting evaluation data - they left feeling supported and with a renewed sense of unity in their purpose.
