What is a best practice?
“An innovative technique, unique to each SLG leader that tends to come up in most of their sessions.” –
Eric
“An innovative, creative idea either tried and tested or brand new that has proven especially effective in a session.” –
Travis
“A technique that is unique, innovative and provides the students with a stimulating experience.” –
PJ Slide4
Why is it important for leaders to think about their best practice?
“ Reflecting on what a leader does best gives the leader ability to move in that trajectory to make their sessions more effective.” –
Travis
“Choosing one thing that a leader does best and running with it gives each leader the confidence needed to be a successful SLG leader”
– Eric
“
Makes you realize what you are good at and when you share it with others it diversifies your experience and lends creative ideas to other leaders.”-
