A6 Supporting a great cohort of awesome seniors and MAT students through student teaching and internships (in-person and virtual) during a pandemic. And, they are all still EXCITED to enter the profession. 👍 😊 They are going to make a difference. 👏 #Motivation #ADVANCEChat

A4 Reminding teachers and future teachers that they are doing a great job. And... saying “It will be okay. We’ll just figure it out.” #ADVANCEChat

[Rebekah Ralph @TeachitRalph]

@DRescigno Thanks. 100% true. And...Love Baby Yoda. He makes his way into my courses every now and then, too!

A3 Using video helps if you haven’t figured out how to clone yourself 😂 It also allows for multiple opportunities to reflect on different aspects of teaching. And...you make teacher and student growth visible when you rewatch old videos #ADVANCEChat

[Rebekah Ralph @TeachitRalph]

A2 Be intentional. Focus on one agreed upon goal at a time. Celebrate successes. #ADVANCEChat

@DrBuning @DrBuning You know I love some growth mindset. :) Hope you are doing well.

[Rebekah Ralph @TeachitRalph]

Biggest obstacle...The plan is fluid. Flexibility will be key.

Biggest way to overcome this obstacle #GrowthMindset #ADVANCEchat

[Rebekah Ralph @TeachitRalph]

A4: Not necessarily a resource, but a thought... We want back to normal, but normal had challenges and issues, too. Let's embrace the "new normal" and seek innovative ways to support students and teachers. Is this our chance to re-imagine education? #ADVANCEchat #blendedlearning

[Rebekah Ralph @TeachitRalph]

@DRescigno As one of my colleagues says, "Blessed are the flexible for they shall bend and not break." I feel like I might need a t-shirt and 500 post it notes to remind myself of that this year!

[Rebekah Ralph @TeachitRalph]

A2: We will use video to support pre-service teachers who may have more limited interactions in the field this year. Planning on using videos to discuss instructional strategies and to teach skills of reflection #ADVANCEchat

[Rebekah Ralph @TeachitRalph]

A1: Leader = Listening Learner. Collaboration and on time support will be critical this year. Given the nature of the pandemic, needs will be evolving and changing. We need to be able to shift and support in this uncharted territory #AlwaysLearning #LeadersListen #ADVANCEchat

Blessed to have these little Ralphinators. They teach me so much everyday. ❤️

[Rebekah Ralph @TeachitRalph]

Watching yourself on video can be hard at first, but 🙋‍♀️ if you’ve grown because of it! Shout out to all of our teacher candidates @LaGrangeCollege who grew with video reflection and feedback this year! #futureteachers #TeacherAppreciationWeek

[Insight ADVANCE @InsightADVANCE]

When teachers see themselves grow on video, it makes the initial stress and scare of being recorded all worth it.
