Agenda


 * Goal of VC: ** If the catalyst for change leaves, what happens to the //change//?

How can we support administrators and help them understand instructional coaching and how to build capacity in their buildings?

Here is the link to the recording of our virtual mentor meeting: [] Only the intro and the closing (2:47:45) seem to work correctly. However, for those of you who weren’t able to attend, the intro will be particularly valuable as you explore the documents. There are a few places where the audio works. The audio and video are not in sync. So, the time signature is a bit off. Here's the best I could do. Audio starts up for a report out or conversation -
 * Intro at 0:00:00
 * around 1:36:45
 * around 1:56:49
 * around 2:29:14 (When Cindy breaks off, be patient because it picks up again and continues for about 30 minutes.)

||

 * **10:50 – 11:20** ||  ||   || ====Whole group (10 min per group): Each group shares plan, e.g., content, topics, and materials, to be used in their meetings==== ||
 * **11:20 – 11:45** ||  ||   || ====F2F in small groups: Using data from all three groups, now what is the process you suggest for implementation of plan,====

Each group has data on all three topics… how will you help the coaches facilitate these meetings?
||
 * **11:45 – 12:00** ||  ||   || ====Whole group: Work session 2 – share what you will do; what challenges might you experience in delivering this content?==== ||
 * **12:00 – 12:15** ||  ||   || ====Debrief process of VC==== ||


 * Specific tasks: **
 * The group will define a recorder, a timekeeper, and a facilitator. The facilitator will ensure that all voices are heard. **
 * 1) Each location is assigned one topic
 * 2) Each group of mentors will discuss the topic and identify what administrators need to know about the topic
 * 3) Mentors will develop materials, templates, essential questions, etc., pertaining to topic focusing on the administrative lens… how can we help administrators understand building capacity in their buildings?


 * Process: **
 * 1) Whole group review of agenda and individual tasks per location
 * 2) Define //building capacity//
 * 3) Work session 1: within groups, mentors and RMC meet F2F to work on defined task (adult learning, educator effectiveness, literacy)
 * 4) Whole group “meets” virtually to share discussions and suggestions for assigned task (adult learning, educator effectiveness, literacy)
 * 5) Work session 2: within groups, synthesize shared discussions and suggestions for implementation
 * 6) Debrief


 * Questions to guide your thinking: **

> a. Steps to initiating the conversation > b. Facts, ideas, concepts administrators need to know related to the topic > c. How can guiding questions be used to help administrators understand the process and details in building capacity?
 * 1) What do administrators need to know about building capacity?
 * 2) What does building capacity look like in your building?
 * 1) How will mentors engage in conversation with coaches to help them build their own capacity while helping administrators understand the importance of capacity building?
 * 2) How will mentors help the IUs advocate for building capacity in buildings?
