Creating a Spirit of Inquiry through the 7 Norms of Collaboration

● Pausing for Thinking - Pause after a question is asked and after someone speaks.
● Paraphrasing - Communicate value and an intent to understand. Use “you” and “we” instead of “I.”
● Probing – Explore thinking and seek specificity. Please say more…, I’m curious about…, I’d like to hear more about...
● Putting Ideas on the Table – I’m putting this on the table…, Here is an idea for consideration…, One possible approach
might be…; Know when to pull ideas off the table - This idea seems to be blocking us...
● Providing Data - Center dialogue on data. The data…, This information…, That chart…, The article…, The student
work…
● Paying Attention to Self and Others - Pay attention to what you say, how you say it, and how others react to it.
● Presuming Positive Intentions - Believe that others mean well.

Professional Professional learning results in equitable and excellent outcomes for all students when educators
Learning engage in continuous improvement, build collaboration skills and capacity, and share
Standard responsibility for improving learning for all students.
