The Learning Innovation Cycle How Disruption Creates Lasting Change - 2 views

  •  
    "In education, most of the talk around disruptive innovation revolves around education technology, owing to the potential scale of these technologies, and desperation of education to revise itself. But innovation doesn't necessarily have to be a matter of economics, as Christensen originally thought of the term, nor of technology, which is the most tempting angle. It can, but there are other disruptors that can lead to innovation that have little to do with either. What might be more interesting than the disruptors, then, might be the process itself. "

    "Mobile learning is seen by many as a disruptive technology. This is because it has been identified as a technology which holds great potential to transform the learning and teaching within a classroom.

      "innovation is life blood of businesses. We need to celebrate those pioneers who can see what others don't, who are willing to invest their time and money where others don't dare to." Paul Papadimitriou  How do we disrupt public education to imbibe a learning that allows for all possibilities and reward uniqueness of each rather than conformity of the many? Should we do away with rewards even? How? What disruptions are already mitigating this innovation engine in other fields?

  •

MediaShift . Teaching Innovation Is About More Than iPads in the Classroom | PBS - 2 views

  •  
    Learning environments of the future are in incubation. And therein lies the challenge: Learning environments that don't exist can't be analyzed. Moving into the unknown requires a pioneering spirit. Helen Keller reminds us that is the truth of not only our age, but of all ages: "Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing."
