FTT Description (Team)Facilitated Team Time (FTT) has been a favorite of Summer Institute participants for the last two years. This time is reserved and protected for RttT teams to develop a plan to share Summer Institute information with all LEA and Charter stakeholders, outline action steps for delivering appropriate professional development, and share the plan with other LEAs and Charters.

Facilitated Team Time is scheduled from 1:00-4:00 pm on day two of the 2013 Summer Institute. A NCDPI facilitator will open the session with a brief overview to guide and focus the work of each team. Participants will have access to resources that will support the development of their implementation plan and will have the opportunity to share and collaborate with other LEAs and Charters throughout the entire three-hour work session with the help of Twitter. Twitter is an online social networking service and microblogging service that enables its users to send and read text-based messages of up to 140 characters, known as "tweets". The NCDPI facilitator will remain in the room to serve as a resource, a note-taker, an idea generator, a “tweet” expert or other roles as requested by each team.
