Most PLCs don't measure whether their meetings actually improve student outcomes. Start with specific growth goals, collect data on progress, then adjust your meeting structure and focus areas if the numbers aren't moving.
How do you know if your professional learning community meetings and teacher-based team meetings are effective? If you already know, or if you think you know, you should still listen in to a couple of these pointers. Number 1, impact. What impact are your meetings having on student outcomes as well as growth? Have you identified some specific growth targets and areas that you are striving toward? If so, then measure that impact. If not, it's now time to take a closer look at your focus areas and how you can shift them to make those positive growth and gain points that you are seeking. If you have a positive and effective meeting, then that means that you should keep going. If it's not effective, now it's time to take a closer look, make some revisions to your meeting structures, as well as the growth targets and goals that you've established.
