Professional Learning Communities
PLC’s operate under the assumption that the key to improved learning for students is continuous, job-embedded learning for educators.
DuFour, et. al, 2006

together complementary skills and experience that exceed those of any individual on the team.

Scheduling
PLC’s will meet at AWCPA one week, and the district the following week. This will be a fluid process and the meetings
will be aligned, “Same Focus- enhance student learning and achievement”.
MS Staff will meet at the PLCC, and HS will be at various High Schools in the district.
See attached schedule.

The Four Questions
What is it we expect the students to learn? How will we know when they have learned it? How will we respond when they don’t learn? How will we respond when they already know it?
-DuFour, DuFour, Eaker 2008

Group Process Facilitator
One who contributes structure and process to interactions so groups are able to function effectively. A helper and enabler whose goal is to support others as they achieve exceptional performance.
Group Process Facilitation
A way of providing leadership without taking the reins. A facilitator’s job is to get others to assume responsibility, to take the lead, and engage in meaningful collaboration.
-Facilitation At A Glance
![Page 14: AWCPA PLC Facilitator’s Training AWCPA Leadership Team.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e8e5503460f94b9197c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Group Process Facilitators: Do not have all the answers, are not always the content experts Stay neutral, if you must move out of facilitator role and into role as participating
member of group identify that move. Are responsible for room set up that supports effective teams Listen; demonstrate that you are listening by using verbal and non verbal cues.
(Refer to norms when issues arise.) Paraphrase or clarify for the benefit of all members of the group. Watch the time (or appoint a timekeeper) Build capacity and buy-in, redirect questions by sending to others rather than
answering yourself Use humor – appropriate humor! Call and identify sidetracks, stay true to norms. Encourage all group members to acknowledge dysfunctional behaviors as they
occur. (Remember the focus and intended outcomes, improve instruction to increase achievement.)

Processes for Groups
Set the stage Focus Attention: Norms always present at the beginning of each meeting.
ONE THING: outcomes, make clear at the beginning of each meeting.Check in: Keep meetings positively focused, keep the meeting about the work, avoid negative conversations about kids.
Check the group to see where you are: Reflection on group progress, responsibility checks.
Check for agreement: Fist to Five, Thumbs Up.
Build Consensus:Look for commonalities, agreementIdentify polar points – What would it take for this to work for you?Take a break – get up and stretchMove on and come back to issueCheck to see if it can hold until the next meeting. Perhaps the group needs more information.

Reflections
What was the focus of our discussion? What did we learn about teaching our
content and lesson plans that were developed?
What did we learn about our students; growth, enrichment?
