I’m convinced that we can conduct weekly staff meetings through a blog. The principal posts the topics, and the teachers post questions and discussion points in the comments.
Of course, staff members don’t have to give up meeting together. The staff can use the blog as a teaser for the next meeting, posting topics and initiating conversation. Staff members can ask questions and comments for the principal to address in the flesh and blood meeting.
I’ve been in too many 45 person conversations about adjusted lunch schedules: everyone has an opinion, but 85% never get stated. This way, staff members can comment on their own time, and every staff member speaks at the same volume: silent.
Additionally, I’m guessing 40% of comments and questions in staff meetings could be prevented if the staff members were required to write out their those statements and read them.
