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: Are you looking for alternatives to the traditional ways in which we engage writers in the classroom? Well then...we can't wait for you to join us!

Whether it's using magic to narrow down a topic, weeding your writing of overused words or challenging your colleagues to a verb boxing match, we have something for everyone! In addition, we will take a look at how various digital tools can provide equity in writing for ALL our students.
Rationale: Learning Outcomes:
    * Identify the changes made to the writing standards
    * Utilize learning targets and proficiency scales to drive our instruction

          - focusing on one topic
          - organizing ideas 
          - developing ways to START and END 
          - utilizing transitions
          - writing for various audiences
          - adding vivid descriptions 
     * Support data from learner profiles with digital tools aimed at providing
