At the end of each day, have participants share what teaching technique they saw/did. challenge them after each day to ‘fill the paper’ up.(Thanks Jens)

Giving participants an option of what they wanted on D3
We had super engaged participants and we challenged ourselves to change our D3 lessons to what they wanted (or we gave Jens the challenge!)

Debriefing with your fellow facilitators
Super rewarding and helpful to think about new approaches and techniques – i.e. facilitators giving ideas about what you could do next time/etc.

Feedback forms
On day 3, we added an additional feedback sheet in additional to the CTLT ones. As a result, instructors for the large group session received feedback.

Dot-mocracy
Having that online BUT asking participants to email us their votes. This gave us the opportunity to combine sessions together if some sessions were super close.

Next time
Having a meaningful feedback session online:
Enables individuals to think ahead of time how they want to give/receive feedback. We did that for our ISW and participants in the large group agreement session already discussed these points.

New ideas!
We emailed our participants well ahead of time and set the deadline for online participation three days prior to the ISW. We had amazing success with all participants submitting on time and commenting on their peers comments. This translated into great mini-lessons starting from Day 1.

Rowshan introduced the “dynamic schedule” to us. This is a very simple but great idea of having an excel sheet where times are automatically calculated. You only have to change the time of your session and everything gets updated. We did that throughout the day to accommodate changes in the schedule. Great idea!
New ideas!
We have co-planned all sessions for day one and made sure that none of the active learning techniques overlap. It went great and we got to model a huge variety of techniques. We also set aside around 5 minutes meta-time to discuss the techniques that we modeled.
