The table napkin test - Cognitive Edge - 1 views

  • One of the golden rules of sense-making is that any framework or model that can’t be drawn on a table napkin from memory has little utility. The reason for this is pretty clear, if people can use something without the need for prompts or guides then there are more likely to use it and as importantly adapt it. Models with multiple aspects, more than five aspects (its a memory limit guys live with it) or which require esoteric knowledge are inherently dependency models.
  • So apply the table napkin test before you take up any new method, model or framework

Powerful Learning Practice | Connected Educators - 0 views

  •  
    This excerpt from an interview with Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach, PLP founder, captures critical points for PD online. "Will and I agreed that we would only work with teams of school-based educators because the research made it clear that it was collaborative teams within in a school, working together, that really brought about sustainable improvement. That would give us what we needed to anchor the virtual experience in a local context. We also wanted participants to experience a global community of practice-to be able to have conversations with people very different than themselves, with fresh perspectives. Our thinking was that if we put teams of educators who had different ideologies, different geography, different purposes and challenges, all together in the same space, then they could each bring what they did well to the table and people could learn from that. Ultimately that would mean public, private, Catholic, and other kinds of schools; educators teaching well-to-do, middle-class, and poor kids; educators in different states and nations, at different grade levels, and in different content areas and roles. What ultimately grew out of our brainstorming was a three-pronged model of professional development that emphasizes (1) local learning communities at the school/district level; (2) an online community of practice that's both global and deep; and (3) a third prong that is more personal-the idea of a personal learning network that each educator develops as a mega-resource for ideas and information about their particular interests and areas of practice. (These three prongs are described in depth in a new book, The Connected Educator, where PLP community leader Lani Ritter Hall and I tell the story of the evolution of our model and the very solid research base behind it.)

Women Turn Tables on Online Harassers - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  •  
    Women using online dating services "out" men who are harassing them with explicit, ugly messages, especially on Tinder and OKCupid. They post the messages on either instagram, twitter, their dating site profile, or other places and not only stop or greatly reduce harassment, but attract men who want to get to know them better. A new problem for the modern age.

Capacity building for communities of color: The paradigm must shift (and why I'm leavin... - 0 views

  • funders do not invest sufficient funds in our organizations to build capacity because we don’t have enough capacity.
  • Yet we are constantly asked to do stuff, to sit at various tables, to help with outreach, to rally our community members to attend various summits and support various policies.
  • Because we don’t have capacity, we can’t get support to develop capacity.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • funders provide small grants to nonprofits of color so they can do things like hire a consultant to facilitate a strategic planning retreat, or to send them to workshops on board development, fundraising, personnel policies, or myriad other capacity building topics.
  • critical missing element. Staffing.
  • If we value the voice of our diverse communities, we must build the capacity of organizations led by those communities. But we must do it differently than how we’ve been doing it. We must invest strategically and sufficiently.
  • Capacity Paradox.
  • capacity of immigrant/refugee-led nonprofits by providing this critical missing element of staffing.
  • The gap in leadership among the immigrant/refugee communities will widen further because kids are not entering the nonprofit field. Most immigrant/refugee kids are pressured by their families to go into jobs with higher pay and prestige
