By continually revisiting "suggested" work at the beginning of each month in your Taskstream portfolio, you will set yourself up for success with meeting ODE and District requirements for your Residency Program. This reflective way of working seeks to move beyond a traditional "this is how we do things..." style of mentoring that is focused on the "logistics" of teaching toward independent reflection on teaching practice, intentional instructional design and delivery, authentic assessment, analysis of student learning and increased knowledge of content in order to improve student achievement.

It is a requirement to complete 2-4 Collaborative logs or Interactive Journal entries per month
If using the provided Collaborative Log as your main source of documentation:
The first shared Collaborative Log (Standard, Monthly Log) is the primary Collaborative log. The Standard Monthly Collaborative Logs are interactive and can be completed electronically. The additional, alternate logs can be used as needed in place of the Standard, Monthly logs at any time. The alternate logs are not currently interactive, but can be completed manually and scanned into Taskstream. It is recommended (but not required) for each Resident Educator to explore at least one of the Alternate Collaborative Logs throughout the course of completing their Year 1 requirements.
