    Today, we finished the second week of an interpersonal communications course. The students in the course are first term college students, a few fresh out of high school.

    The concept of homework as we have known it in the past is changing rapidly, since it often distorts the overall picture of learning.

  • The PLN is a mindset, not the outcome of a workshop or the PD offered annually by many school districts. It is not a one-shot fix.
  • We must remember that lifelong learning requires effort. We expect this commitment from students. We should accept no less from ourselves.

    " A PLN is a tool that uses social media and technology to collect, communicate, collaborate and create with connected colleagues anywhere at any time. Participating educators, worldwide, make requests and share resources."

    During one of my workshops last year in Boston, Brad Ovenell-Carter (@braddo) put his visual notetaking skills to action. I took his lovely summary drawing and used ThingLink to add layers of information and elaboration. In the future I am keen to share more about my experiences of design thinking with school leaders, teachers and other organisations in blog posts here.

    A collaboration of central Ohio school districts, businesses and community groups will give more high-school students a jump-start on college and work skills. Starting this fall, students in several local districts can enroll in career pathway programs that will focus on health care, information technology, robotics and logistics.
