Description

The "Flag Person Framework", structuring collaborative reflection on practice, was introduced in a national network of Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) to support physics teachers implementing “Deliberation Labs” to increase students’ agency in the lab. We examined how PLC leaders perceived, as teachers and as leaders, the affordances and limitations of the "Flag Person” framework. The analysis showed that the framework allowed them to redefine lab goals and collaboratively examine ways to reorient instruction to achieve them. While the "Flag Person” framework was useful in fostering change, it placed a high workload on the PLC participants and leaders.
