  • in true motion leader style, motivated me (ok I was already motivated, but supported me) to shift my perspectives on the role of teacher and by extension the role of principal from facilitator of learning to activator of learning.
  • Alternatively, there is a .84 effect size on student learning when teachers serve as activators of learning through offering feedback, accessing thinking, supporting challenging goals, and monitoring learning. It does not take extensive training in statistical analysis to find this research compelling.
  • Offer respect to others before it is earned Engage in impressive empathy, meaning empathy even for those who stand in your way Invest in capacity building – human capital and social capital Build social contagion Eliminate non-essentials Focus on a small number of ambitious goals.

    "Greg Green is the principal at Clintondale High School in Clinton Township, Michigan. His guest post on this blog titled "My View: Flipped classrooms give every student a chance to succeed" generated more than 500 comments and was shared thousands of times on social media. In this post, Green offers answers to some of the questions you asked the most. The response to my guest post last week about flipping the classroom on CNN's Schools of Thought blog was overwhelming and thought-provoking. While I appreciate that there are varying opinions, I would like to respond to some of the topics that were frequently brought up in the comments section,"

  • Why are principals spending time blogging when that time could be better devoted to doing other things in their schools?  Are administrators blogging because they find true value in the practice, or because they’re trying to make a name for themselves? Where do administrators find the time to do this?
  • I enjoy blogging about educational issues. It helps me reflect on my practice. If I read a book, a blog post, or a tweet, writing about the ideas shared helps me make connections with my own work and that of our students and teachers.
  • I maintain the staff blog to provide updates about school happenings and share links/ideas I find in my online reading. I’m trying to connect my teachers with those ideas and model how I use social media to enhance my practice.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • A commitment to blogging or tweeting honestly requires you to take a really careful look at how you are spending your time, setting priorities for what you want to achieve for your school, deciding if blogging as a reflective practice will help enhance learning for your teachers, students, and self, and then make a plan to get it done.
  • I blog because it helps me reflect on my practice. I choose to share the benefits of social media with others because if they can find one effective use of the tools to help their own professional growth and/or that of their schools, then I have helped to make a difference.
  • If wanting to reflect so I can better my practice, and reading to learn more so I can strengthen my ability to serve students is self-indulgent, then add another scoop of ice cream to that dish. And don’t forget the cherry on top!
  • It is strange that it’s even a topic of conversation, as you explained. I have learned a great deal since I began tweeting and reading others blogs, and it’s free! The use of social media to grow professionally can revolutionize the craft of education as long as we are fnot ighting amongst ourselves about who should or shouldn’t blog, tweet, or otherwise.

  • Typically they come to see buildings, spaces and furniture. They leave seeing the possibility for reconstructing their own learning spaces, pedagogy, teams and thinking.
  • I am witnessing teachers experiencing a new role – no longer the managers of behavior, but now the creative directors of curriculum delivery.
  • Someone who can sit down with a child and guide them in the applied use of a mobile device for learning and employment, provisioned with wireless Internet access, and at the right time of confidence and relational development, gift them with that device, remaining as their mentor and coach.
