Innovative School Models and Resolve Revisited in·no·va·tion (noun) 1: the introduction of something new; 2: a new idea, method, or device Merriam-Webster online The term innovation is becoming more and more prevalent in education-related discussions. Schools from coast to coast are adopting "innovative" models to address educational needs in local communities. The range of practice associated with these models is wide. Some models are prescribed programs with detailed requirements for professional development and implementation. Other models are more tailored to an individual community and somewhat less specific in structure and delivery. The development of these K-12 programs has been accompanied by university programs designed to facilitate growth, increase successful outcomes, and analyze results.

converging on Wordpress multi-user Published by sinclair at 3:32 pm under blogging, web2.0 With the decision to stop using Edublogs, I am left with the question of what to use instead. This isn't just a decision for hosting of my own blog, that's done and dusted now. The problem is that I am not sure where to point others who are looking for a blogging solution. In particular, I've been charged with providing blogging training after Easter for staff at my own school and will need to have something for these practical sessions

Impoverishment of the Educational Imagination Posted on | January 22, 2009 | Stand after stand at the BETT Show this year seemed to bear witness to a concept of schooling that is just about as far away from the joy of learning as it appears possible to get - it could really only get worse if we were to go back to thrashing kids. Everywhere I wandered I came across little gaggles of people listening intently to someone demonstrating yet another ticky-boxy piece of junk designed to rank and grade kids, to label them, to monitor them and to 'protect' them.
