__**Strengths:**__ Enthusiasm for using RA and using Technology to implement. Collaboration

__**Weaknesses:**__ Time and implementation Getting teachers to recast the roles to focus more on the student and less on the teacher. Teacher buy in.

__**Puzzlements:**__ How do you get the ongoing support How do you get teachers to buy in to using the strategies

__**I Read/I Thought**__
 * Thinking takes time. Plan for it. How true! We don't often give teachers enough time to think, plan, and implement.
 * We must remember the importance of the big picture. We should not teach only strategies and help those teachers who just want strategies to understand the importance of the big picture.
 * Technology is the future and is very important to be used and understood in implementing RA.

Commonalities and What We Learned:
 * Teacher buy-in is difficult.
 * Teachers and administrators get the strategies but not the framework.
 * Conversations are needed to build the connections - they won't just "get" them. "Let the brain do its thing!"
 * Many teachers are reluctant to give up control of their classroom.
 * We should try to not view it as another thing to do, but as a change in delivery.

How would I apply this? What would it look like in my PD or Classroom? Modeling for teachers - Teachers modeling for students You can use a wiki for all RA strategies
