1) Engaging with Resources - The WHAT:
#GoOpenNC has three main opportunities to interact with the resources on the platform.
Level of Engagement | What would be your vision for WHAT your educators would do in the next 6 months? | What would be your vision for WHAT your educators would do in the next 18 months? |
Find/Use Existing Resources | SLMCs, ICs, maybe lead teachers find good resources to share with teams - show value of the resource | Introduce searching with everyone |
Collect/Curate Resources and Collections | Create collections of resources for subject/grade levels | |
Create/Upload Resources | Work with star teachers to create one rock star lesson |
2) Engaging with Platform - The HOW:
#GoOpenNC has three main ways to participate on the platform
#GoOpenNC Initiative | What would be your vision for HOW your educators would participate on the platform in the next 6 months? | What would be your vision for HOW your educators would participate on the platform in the next 18 months? |
Share/Evaluate Resources | SLMCs/ICs and lead teachers share high quality resources with teams | Encourage every teacher to share one great lesson or evaluate one resource |
