ReinQuestion? appears every Thursday and is an open thread for members of the HW and CCC community to post questions about the ongoing Reinvention. Any and all questions are invited, and anyone who knows an answer to any question posted is encouraged to answer it in the threads below.
Nary a question last week. Perhaps this week’s revelations, mentioned at the meeting with FC4 and Local FC Presidents about the direction and developments in regard to nascent Faculty Professional Development Task Force Recommendations among other things will lead to some questions this week. Hopefully? Anyone?
You want questions? Here’s a couple:
1. Have the task force members had direct contact with our chancellor? (I don’t care if it’s been formal or informal. So long as there’s been communication, I’d like to know how much and how often.)
2. Any word on what the reinvention task forces have concluded about a district-wide faculty development week? (I’d like to avoid the disaster that was forced upon us last year.)
Bonus question: Actually this is more of a meta-question:
1. Why aren’t we responding to the questions to question reinvention? Is this related to low moral and lack of confidence? Do we think that it don’t matter anyway cause decisions are comin’ from the top and those at the top ain’t listenin’ to those down below? I’m serious here. Do we care? What up?
