Q1 #OKLAED RR: “A topic should gain clarity through the use of different genres to broaden the reader’s understanding of the issue” (Kittle, 2008, p. 172).

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

#oklaed A1) Depends on who it is with…Tragedy, Comedy, Adventure, abd Horror… There isn’t a one size fits all. https://t.co/g8ccXpo8Pv

— Becki Maldonado M.Ed (@BeckiLaoshi) March 5, 2018

A1: Adventure/Tragedy there’s never enough productive time for this! #oklaed pic.twitter.com/M1oJUZPqI8

Q2 #OKLAED RR: Although we recognize personal and professional growth through reading together, our reading process is a blending of growth and fixed notions, and we need to understand both for our collaborative goals to succeed (Hattie & Zierer, 2018).

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

Q2 #OKLAED RR: Comparing (and overthinking) our Myers-Briggs results with a focus on our reading habits= #readingrules shows the main differences between how our attention is wired and how we make decisions.

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

A2 I can collab on the fly but I prefer dedicated time and space, freedom to move and stand, snacks, breaks, access to WiFi and electricity. Clear goals and action a good also a plus. #oklaed

— Vanessa Perez (@vperezy) March 5, 2018

A2: You give me digital, professional, public, and coffee, and we will rock it I can promise you.

And I alternate between pen and pencil dependant upon the situation. I'm not a heathen. #oklaed

Q3 #OKLAED RR: #EffectSizeMatters– Hattie’s Visible Learning Effect Sizes (see Barometer of Influence= .40+)=

Teaching Test Taking and Coaching = 0.3; Practice Testing = 0.54; Cooperative Learning = 0.4; Cooperative Learning compared to Competitive Learning = 0.53; Cooperative Learning compared to Individual Learning = 0.55; Collaborative Learning = 0.34

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

A3)????. I’m old, slow and confused…. #Oklaed

— Craig McVay (@mcvay51) March 5, 2018

A3. Most of the time, my time spent collaborating with others is about what would work best for the students in different scenarios and how to adapt my own teaching to those needs. #OklaEd

A4 Ambush…I mean, present F2F, talk, email #oklaed

— Vanessa Perez (@vperezy) March 5, 2018

A4B) For 27 years it went like this; “Can you believe we wasted an entire day doing that PD built for PK teachers? WTH did that have to do with HS History?” #Oklaed

Q5 #OKLAED RR: According to the 2007 National Endowment of the Arts Report, “nearly half of all Americans ages 18 to 24 read no books for pleasure” and surprisingly, “teachers don’t read any more often than adults in the general population” (Kittle, 2013, p. 147).

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

A5 I read 45min to an hour a day that is professional in nature. More on Sunday’s bc of #oklaed 😍 https://t.co/fSMCsqqy5N

— Fund #OklaEd—OK’s future depends on it! (@CathyBenge1) March 5, 2018

A5. Define "professional reading?" I'm learning more from places like #oklaed chats, collaborative talks with the homies, FB group discussions, etc. than I am from those educational journals?#realtalk

Q6 #OKLAED RR: The purpose of using apps like these is to practice what you teach or, rather, become familiar with technologies and multimodal literacies your students can (and should) use regularly as a tool for their learning when reading and writing.

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

Q6 #OKLAED RR: As consumers, creators, and analyzers of print and digital media, adolescents need powerful and purposeful instruction that conveys a sense of urgency about learning” (Fisher, et al, 2017, p. 16).

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

Q6 #OKLAED RR: Grow relationships, not networks. “The demands of our society on students are such that they need to be able to understand and respond to a variety of media in an endless array of situations.

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

#oklaed A6) Networking is overrated??? Networking is the first step to collaborating… You can’t collaborate unless you network. https://t.co/6JF3w9c4MT

— Becki Maldonado M.Ed (@BeckiLaoshi) March 5, 2018

A6) My fear of missing out factor just skyrocketed. What are these other collaboration vessels you speak of? I want to learn them all! #oklaed

Q7 #OKLAED RR: #EffectSizeMatters– Hattie’s Visible Learning Effect Sizes (see Barometer of Influence= .40+)= Exposure to Reading = 0.43; Teacher Credibility = 0.9; Evaluation and Reflection = 0.75; Elaboration and Organisation = 0.75

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

A7: #PDis an opportunity to be reminded of what it’s like to be learners in a classroom. It’s a chance to identify with our kids and see how we can make their learning experiences better. #oklaed

— Lauren Peña (@lauren_pena16) March 5, 2018

Q7: #PDis getting to work with a small group and usually focused around tech/apps. Just really getting to talk through ideas helps me get the most out of any PD, regardless of the topic. #EIPT3043 #oklaed

Q8 #OKLAED RR: Teachers need to read a lot (two words). We need to live the reader life to be reading role models; to grow, we need to invest in our reading process: knowing who we are (our personality= MBTI and our #readingrules) and where we read best (our environment).

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

Q8 #OKLAED RR: We need to have accountability. We learn by reading, so as we seek to promote the development of our students as lifelong readers,we need to also promoting our development as teachers of reading& teachers who read. Reading a lot is our professional responsibility.

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

A8: Book study: Transforming School Culture; Reading solo, The Coaching Habit #oklaed

#OKLAED RR: #EffectSizeMatters– Hattie’s Visible Learning Effect Sizes (see Barometer of Influence= .40+)= Lastly, it’s important to note that Collective Teacher Efficacy = 1.57 is THE MOST important impact on student achievement.

— Lara Searcy, M.Ed-NBCT (@MrsSearcy112) March 5, 2018

Demonstrate for Ss how a “reading/writing experience becomes a catalyst for change in their lives” (Beers & Probst, 2017).
Inspire others to practice what they teach and to find a #PDpartner to help you align practices with passions. Become a #collaboratED power team! #okaled pic.twitter.com/dMX3UAXUIZ
