Welcome to Johnston County Public Schools IGNITE2018 Symposium! We are excited to embark on this journey with you. This year’s event is designed around 4 Quests. Our hope is that if you follow a Quest over the 2 days your understanding will be deepened and you will find more relevance to your practice. There are 3 kinds of sessions: Connect (Edcamp style sessions) Learn (content delivery sessions) Innovate (implementation planning sessions). Begin by selecting one of 4 Quest Options:
SBTL (Standards Based Teaching and Learning)
CORE (CORE Instruction)
Learner Agency
Learner Centered Practices
Here is a link to the Quest Cards that might be helpful in seeing the specific sessions by Quest.
To begin crafting your quest you will need to follow these steps.
Step 1: Select all your required sessions (filter by "All Quests" to see these options) - Opening, Lunch, Toolbox, Innovate and Closing Sessions
Step 2: Select your Learn sessions, please use the "filter by type" option on the right hand side to help you plan the remainder of your quest by topic.
IMPORTANT NOTE: some options are in multiple quests - they are denoted on the quest cards, but to see those in sched you will need to use the filter that says "Multiple Quests." Pick from those first, they will fill up fast.
Step 3: In order to earn the 1.5 Digital Learning Competencies, your schedule should include 1 Connect, 5 Learn Sessions and 1 Innovate session (Note: you must also submit an artifact of implementation and a brief reflection after the symposium)
Description: This session will challenge the tenants of a traditional math class by challenging teachers to be less helpful, allowing their students call the shots in the using the 3 Act Approach. Participants will immerse themselves in a 3-Act Task as a learner, then dive deeper into the structures and supports of a successful 3-Act Task. They will explore how 3-Act Tasks provide all students with access to mathematics in a way that is highly engaging and develops their agency and curiosity as learners. Rationale: The session aims to increase teacher's understanding of and comfort with: *Implementing engaging tasks that promote reasoning and problem solving. *Providing low floor, high ceiling tasks to promote equity and access. *Building relationships through the facilitation of meaningful discourse. *Increasing student voice and ownership in the problems they solve and strategies they use. *Posing purposeful questions. *Supporting productive struggle. *Transitioning from teacher centered to student centered instruction.
