This document summarizes a panel discussion on participatory approaches to professional development in education. The panel explored how to design professional development (PD) experiences for teachers that are participatory and involve co-learning. Some key principles discussed were making PD participatory by modeling participatory learning techniques, building community among educators, ensuring relevance through contextualization, and creating sustainable models of engagement. The panel also presented several case studies of participatory PD approaches using tools like games, media creation and scientific research to actively engage teachers and promote flexible, iterative learning experiences.

- 2. Introduction: Participatory Learning Participatory Learning Opportunities for exercising creativity by using a variety of media, tools, and practices Co-learning, where educators and students pool their skills and knowledge, and share in the tasks of teaching and learning Heightened motivation and new forms of engagement through meaningful play and experimentation Learning that feels relevant to the learners’ identities and interests An integrated learning system - or learning ecosystem - where connections between home, school, community, and world are enabled and encouraged. http://dmlcentral.net/resources/5135
- 3. The Working Group on Participatory PD Genesis and membership Goals Principal questions and issues raised: Objectives of PD Engagement of teachers in PD Context and relevance Role of media Sustainability Assessment Key insights: values and design principles http://dmlcentral.net/resources/5135
- 4. Participatory PD: The Values 1. Participation, not indoctrination 2. Exploration, not prescription 3. Contextualization, not abstraction 4. Iteration, not repetition http://dmlcentral.net/resources/5135
- 5. Participatory PD: The Design Principles 1. Make the design of PD participatory 2. Model participatory learning in PD 3. Build community 4. Engage the “whole teacher” 5. Be relevant while still innovating 6. PD must be flexible 7. PD must be sustainable http://dmlcentral.net/resources/5135

Notas do Editor
- ERIN (can also pull more stuff about participatory learning from the intro to the publication – pp. 5-6.) BUT keep it short because last time this slide took really long Also mention participation gap, as it relates to both students AND teachers
- IOANA Genesis: mention DML 2011, diversity of WG members Goals: Provide a common forum for professional development conversations centered around participatory learning Foster interdisciplinary dialogue among vested audiences in participatory learning Identify synergy among members and facilitate learning from each other Construct a common framework for participatory models of professional development Extract best practices and lingering challenges in the field Build a collection of case studies exemplifying these best practices and share them with the larger community of stakeholders in participatory learning Questions raised: Goals: What do teachers want from a PD experience, as opposed to what is required of them? What are (or should be) the goals of PD? Participatory learning: What is the current role of teachers in the PD design process? How can we make this process more participatory so that it recognizes ownership, co-design and relevance? How do we transition from PD for to PD with? Context and relevance: How do we properly account for various disciplines and different age groups while crafting versatile PD programs? What is the impact of short- vs. long-term investments in professional development? Media: What is the role of media and digital technologies in PD? Sustainability: How do we create an environment which sustains ongoing learning that teachers themselves can direct? Assessment: How do we best assess PD initiatives? Key insights: Beyond the rich examples and lessons learned from each of the case studies, one of the core take-aways from this project is the design guide on participatory models of professional development. This design guide had the double benefit of being useful to our wide audience (which includes a vast number of practitioners) and in the same time providing us with a common framework for the analysis and discussion of the case studies. Specifically, inspired by Barry Fishman’s work on design-based research, our framework suggests two levels of consideration: values and design principles
- IOANA: Explain values based on descriptions in the publication
- ERIN: Explain design principles based on descriptions in the publication
- Introduce case studies, and give authors a few minutes to talk about their work (max 5 minutes)
- IOANA and ERIN: Emphasize that even though it centers on individually-authored case studies, the working group and the resulting publication is a quintessentially collective effort, which all the group members helped shape
