REGIONAL EDUCATOR HUDDLES
We are teams of educators that partner with students. We innovate to expand student ownership. We scale collective expertise to make a difference for all students.
2023 First Meeting
October 13 at Pendleton High School- during the IMESD State-Wide Inservice Day
Content leaders, IMESD instructional services staff, and administrators attended Impact Team training with Katie Smith from Core Collaborative Team.
What are Educator Huddles?
The content-specific educator huddles are a joint project by the Oregon Trail Regional Educator Network (OT-REN)and Intermountain Education Service District. Huddles met throughout the 2022-23 school year.
Our team is working with Core Collaborative to provide in-person training and virtual support, rooted in John Hattie’s research of the Visible Learning influences which have the greatest effect size:
Empowered/Assessment Capable Learners = 1.02
Collective Teacher Efficacy = 1.36
The Focus of Impact Teams for 2023-2024 school year is Collaborative Inquiry. Teacher teams plan an Inquiry Cycle of Learning that focuses on one major learning goal and meet together to analyze student work and develop teacher actions to move students along a learning progression. Teachers engage students in self and peer assessment so they ensure they are on track to meet their learning goals.
