The PLC meeting discussed building instructional capacity through staff development focusing on pedagogical content knowledge, lesson tuning, and instructional rounds. A proposal was made to integrate the four areas of instructional capacity by utilizing common planning time with an instructional lens on a "big idea" each month, emphasizing it through lesson tuning and rounds. Questions were raised about organizing events to preserve time, adjusting potential "big ideas," and whether any other changes should be made to the proposed plan.
