Question 1
Describe a specific initiative where you drove instructional change across an entire department, school, or district.
What was the scale of this work and the outcomes? How did you specifically navigate resistance from adult learners, and what evidence do you have that the change impacted student learning?
Question 2
Share one piece of work you've created for adult learners — a PD agenda, slide deck, coaching protocol, recorded session, conference proposal, published writing, anything.
Paste a link or briefly describe it, including who the audience was, roughly how many people, and what teacher practice you were trying to shift. What features or characteristics of this artifact speak to best practices for supporting adult learners? If you facilitated this PD again, what might you do differently and why?
Question 3
Think about traditional adult learning or professional development. What is one common practice that you strongly disagree with or find detrimental, and what do you do instead?
Question 4
Name three educators — by name and role — who have shaped how you think about adult learning.
Briefly share what you took from each and how this shows up concretely in your work with teachers or leaders.
