Individual and collective growth are direct byproducts of the community dynamic: diverse groups of teachers that can support, challenge and inspire one another in a spirit of exploration and discovery.<\/p>\n<p>FLCs allow for focus and continuity to work on one teaching-related topic with similarly interested people over the course of an entire academic year. They are designed to be able to fit easily into a full-time teacher\u2019s workload, and to provide much-needed moments of collegiality and intellectual stimulation. In short, FLCs are a way to increase career satisfaction and efficiency by being part of a community, while developing techniques and materials that can have a tangible benefit to the students\u2019 success and well-being.<\/p>\n<p>FLC topics are driven by teacher interest and student needs. Each year there is a call for Facilitators who can propose topics. Topics could be related to any aspect of teaching: assessment, learning activities, grading, feedback, AI, Active Learning, writing, critical thinking, creativity, student engagement, etc. FLC topics and Facilitators are selected in close consultation with the steering committee, who provide support and guidance throughout the application process. \u00a0Once the Facilitators and topics are selected for the following year, there is a call for faculty, professionals, and staff to participate in each FLC.<\/p>\n<p>The recommended duration of an FLC is two semesters, with get-togethers typically occurring 3-5 times per semester. The frequency, length, curriculum, and format of gatherings will be determined by each group. The focus throughout will be on building and nourishing a community that can support and inspire one another. These get-togethers will also allow each member to identify and work through specific challenges in their classrooms. Each FLC will work toward developing pedagogical approaches and creating artifacts that will be shared with the larger Dawson community. These artifacts could be created collectively or individually and can take various forms: assignments, assessments, rubrics, toolkits, web sites, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Each FLC culminates in an end-of-year presentation (e.g. Ped Day, or other similar event), which details the group\u2019s learning journey, the questions or problems they wrestled with, and some of the artifacts that were created.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Want more information?
