The Facilitator:Professional Learning in Mathematics Breakout 3
Breakout 3 Rational Objective: • To identify underpinnings of effective facilitation of professional learning in mathematics Experiential Aim: • To increase efficacy as a facilitator of professional learning in mathematics
Activity 1: Hidden Highlights • Secretly record one highlight from the plenary on a yellow sticky. • Then give it to another participant to stick it on their forehead – no peeking! • Each participant will have one unknown highlight on their forehead.
Activity 1: Hidden Highlights • You may ask any other participant two yes/no questions. • Once you have correctly identified your head highlight, post it on the Highlight Poster.
Activity 2: Reflection • Reflect on the plenary messages. • Identify things that support effective facilitation of professional learning in mathematics, specifically. • Write one thing per card. • Try to use fewer than 5 words.
Activity 3: Math Moves • While viewing the video, think about what identifies this learning experience as facilitation rather than presentation. • Did you notice any math moves? • Add any new statements to the blue sticky notes.
Activity 4: Intriguing? • As a group, select one card with something that intrigues you.
Activity 4: Daunting? • Now select one that is daunting.
Activity 5: Pairs • Select a pair that might go together.
Activity 6: Naming You’re going to call me WHAT!?
Activity 7: Dotmocracy • Put a green dot on the stack that is the most relevant and important for your situation. • Put a red dot on the stack that is the least relevant and important for your situation.
Activity 8: Dialogue Participation Guidelines: • Everyone has wisdom. • We need wisdom for the wisest results. • There are no wrong answers. • The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. • Each person will hear others and be heard.
Activity 9: Reflection • Think about a time when you were a facilitator of professional learning of mathematics. • Consider our “stacks” and reflect on what you might have done differently. Why?
Moving Forward • What needs to take place to increase the frequency of the use of these practices? • How will this dialogue and your reflections affect what you do in the coming year? • How can we support each other?
