The Blur Between Leading and Teaching - 0 views

  • Anything that we do with technology has to be focused on learning first.
  • We need to always focus on “why” we are doing something before we focus on what and how.  We also need to clearly be able to articulate that to those we work with.
  • Any plans that we create must help to build capacity within schools so that all stakeholders benefit.

  • I saw a distinct parallel between the characteristics of great teaching and great leadership.
  • Give trust, gain trust. As soon as you show that you trust people to do great things, they are more likely to do them.
  • Provide some clear goals and objectives to the work you are doing.  With those in mind, ensure there is flexibility in the way people achieve those goals.
  • Let people build and share their strengths and interests.
  • We can learn much more from a group than we ever could from only one.  Do your best to bring people together and empower them to be leaders.
  • If you look at the list above, there should be no distinction between what falls under leadership or teaching; they clearly work in both areas.

    Very nicely worded blog post about teaching and leadership and how they are interconnected.

SpeEdChange: If school isn't for collaborating, why does anyone come? - 0 views

  • If students want to learn in isolation; if they want to sit at a desk and work on their own stuff, occasionally checking in with an "expert," they have no reason to come to school.
  • For years we've talked about (or we may have even been) kids who've only come to school because of team sports, or music groups, or theatre, or even hanging out at lunch.
  • If school isn't about doing things together, just about everyone has better places to spend their day.

  • The world of work has moved on, but the educational structure, despite the efforts of many individual teachers and administrators, crawls along
  • Bill Gates favorite boy Salman Khan, believe that kids sitting alone, working by themselves, with canned, inflexible data in front of them, is the best preparation for life in the present and future.
  • So here is what your classroom, and your school, needs to offer kids:
  • 1. A learning environment in which students make most decisions.
  • 2. A time environment in which students learn and work along a schedule which makes sense to them
  • 3. A technological environment which supports collaboration across every barrier.
  • 4. A social environment where adults do not rank students according to their oppressive standards.
  •  
    If students want to learn in isolation; if they want to sit at a desk and work on their own stuff, occasionally checking in with an "expert," they have no reason to come to school. They can do a lot better at home, or at their local coffee shop or even the public library, where both the coffee and the WiFi connection will be better.
