You have six things to get done before you leave for the evening and you\u2019re hustling to catch someone before they\u2019ve left too. You pass a colleague in the hallway and they make a comment that catches you just right. You pause and give a remark from your own experience that seems to resonate with them too. In no time flat you\u2019re both an hour into a conversation that is reshaping your practice. It happens to everyone, and often they are the most disruptive and creative milestones in a career.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5821\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5821\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5821\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kabt.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/1-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kabt.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kabt.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/1-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kabt.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/1-500x282.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.kabt.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/1.jpg 852w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-5821\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">We&#8217;re doing a business&#8230; without an office?!?!?

A basic think-pair-share-move on doesn\u2019t produce that kind of dialogue. Deadlines get missed&#8230; dinner gets postponed\u2026 but that time is so remarkably valuable and satisfying that it never seems like anyone is willing to walk away from them when they\u2019re happening.

We\u2019ve had multiple people give some excellent perspectives on some of our discussions and I have been really sad that those contributions aren\u2019t available for everyone. KABTers have done meetups periodically, so what do you all think about trying to find a way to create a forum to continue those conversations as they happen organically. We\u2019ve got the Facebook page, but that page has so much other stuff going on that I don\u2019t know it\u2019s the best place for lengthier (I hope) dialogue. This blog hasn\u2019t engendered that level of casual back and forth\u2026 So ideas? How might we get something more akin to a forum going to discuss research?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Any teacher with a year or two of experience has had one of those conversations.
