WIGs and COVA and Growth Mindset...Oh My!

I left a PLC meeting just a couple of hours ago where a coworker brought up that we needed to make our school wide WIG more clear - that she needed a concrete goal to work towards.  Yes, definitely.  From A to B by When.  Check.  However, she went on to talk about expectations in general and how much anxiety her students feel when they don’t know exactly what to do and how she is that same way and how ‘everyone’ feels better knowing what the end result should look like.   I kinda giggled inwardly and  thought to myself,  “She would not appreciate Dr. H’s methods.”  Then I matured a little and started thinking about my metamorphosis from ‘everyone’ to someone that sees the value in the learning process, not just the end product.  
The contradiction here is that we are creating WIGs for our organization - clear goals and a clear set of steps to accomplish those goals, but we are also embracing authentic learning environments which as we have all experienced don’t provide us with anything resembling clarity - we achieve that clarity through our own interpretations of what the product should be (choice and ownership).   I find this dichotomy both thought-provoking and challenging.
My e-portfolio is a definite reflection of me as an educator, but also as a human outside of my profession.  I didn’t really struggle with the elements of COVA in the creation of the website since I felt comfortable with the design and organization aspect - that’s my wheelhouse.   Blogging is my Achilles heel, though.  I’m a math/science person who likes knowing the RIGHT ANSWER, so writing in general makes me break out in hives - too subjective!  I’m definitely having to work to find that Voice and take that Ownership, because at the moment my Choice is to not blog as often as I should.....YET!
