  • Blended learning, including “flipped” classrooms, continue to spread across the country. Many teacher and principal bloggers tout how they have integrated the use of new devices into daily lessons, including lessons for Common Core standards
  • With all of the above occurring, one would think that by 2025, age-graded schools and the familiar teaching and learning that occurs today in K-12 and universities  would have exited the rear door. Not so.
  • etting access to powerful electronic devices for all students and teachers is surely a victory for those who believe in better technologies solving teaching and learning problems. But access does not dictate use, especially the kind of use that vendors and  technophiles ardently seek
  • In the past four years, I have predicted that textbooks will be digitized, online learning will spread, and the onset of computer testing will create more access to devices across schools and accelerate classroom usage. These developments will occur incrementally over the next decade and will be obvious to observers but hardly dominant in K-12 age-graded schools.
  • While higher education textbooks  have shifted markedly to e-books and less expensive ways of getting content into students’ devices, the K-12 market remains a proprietary domain of a handful of publishers (e.g. Pearson, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, and McGraw-Hill Education) in part due to the mechanics of  certain states (e.g.Florida, California, and Texas) dominating which texts get chosen.
  • 12 online learning will also spread slowly, very slowly, as blended learning and “flipped” classrooms gain traction. Both of these innovative twists on traditional classroom teaching, however, will reinforce the age-graded school, not dismantle it.

A Review of Leadership Theories, Principles and Styles and Their Relevance to Education... - 3 views

  • This study was motivated by the premise that no nation grows further than the quality of its educational leaders.
  • The
  • purpose of this theoretical debate is to examine the wider context of leadership and its effectiveness towards improving school management.

  • To many, leaders are not born, but made. It is increasingly accepted, however, that in order to be a good leader, one must have the experience, knowledge, commitment, patience, and most importantly the skill to negotiate and work with others to achieve goals.
  • Good leaders are thus made, not born
  • Great man theories assume that the capacity for leadership is inherent, that great leaders are born, not made
  • the trait theory assumes that people inherit certain qualities or traits make them better suited to leadership.
  • Contingency theories of leadership focus on particular variables related to the environment that might determine which style of leadership is best suited for a particular work situation.
  • Situational theory proposes that leaders choose the best course of action based upon situational conditions or circumstances.
  • Behavioural theories of leadership are based on the belief that great leaders are made, not born.
  • articipative leadership theories suggest that the ideal leadership style is one that takes the input of others into account.
  • P
  • Transactional theories, also known as management theories, focus on the role of supervision, organization and group performance and the exchanges that take place between leaders and followers. These theories base leadership on a system of rewards and punishments (Charry, 2012).
  • Relationship theories, also known as transformational theories, focus on the connections formed between leaders and followers. In these theories, leadership is the process by which a person engages with others and is able to “create a connection” that results in increased motivationand morality in both followers and leaders. 
  • This theory states that learned knowledge and acquired skills/abilities are significant factors in the practice of effective leadership. Skills theory by no means refuses to acknowledge the connection between inherited traits and the capacity to lead effectively, but argues that learned skills, a developed style, and acquired knowledge, are the real keys to leadership performance.
  • Autocratic leadership is an extreme form of transactional leadership, where leaders have complete power over staff. Staff and team members have little opportunity to make suggestions, even if these are in the best interest of the team or organization
  • Bureaucratic leaders follow rules rigorously, and ensure that their staff also follow procedures precisely.
  • Charismatic leadership theory describes what to expect from both leaders and followers. Charismatic leadership i
  • a leadership style that is identifiable bu
  • may be perceived with less tangibility than other leadership styles
  • Democratic leaders make the final decisions, but include team members in the decision-making process. They encourage creativity, and team members are often highly engaged in projects and decisions.
  • Laissez-faire leadership may be the best or the worst of leadership styles (Goodnight, 2011). Laissez-faire, this French phrase for “let it be,” when applied to leadership describes leaders who allow people to work on their own. Laissez-faire leaders abdicate responsibilities and avoid making decisions, they may give teams complete freedom to do their work and set their own deadlines.
  • This leadership style starts with the idea that team members agree to obey their leader when they accept a job.
  •  
    This really lays it all out. Leadership traits versus styles and how they all relate.

      Worth the 7min of your time...
  • Right now there is an aspiring teacher who is working on a 60-page paper based on some age-old education theory developed by some dead education professor wondering to herself what this task that she's engaging in has to do with what she wants to do with her life
  • Right now there is an aspiring teacher in a graduate school of education who is watching a professor babble on and on about engagement in the most disengaging way possible
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • "Don't smile till November," because that's what she was taught in her teacher education program.
  • make better teachers
  • So why does teacher education only give you theory and theory and tell you about standards and tell you about all of these things that have nothing to do with the basic skills, that magic that you need to engage an audience, to engage a student?
  • content and theories with the absence of the magic of teaching and learning means nothing.
  • And if we could transform teacher education to focus on teaching teachers how to create that magic then poof! we could make dead classes come alive, we could reignite imaginations, and we can change education.
  •  
    " What do rap shows, barbershop banter and Sunday services have in common? As Christopher Emdin says, they all hold the secret magic to enthrall and teach at the same time - and it's a skill we often don't teach to educators. A longtime teacher himself, now a science advocate and cofounder of Science Genius B.A.T.T.L.E.S. with the GZA of the Wu-Tang Clan, Emdin offers a vision to make the classroom come alive. "
  •  
    I love that he sees teachers as magic makers, people who "reignite imaginations." Teaching is so much more than memorization of facts and meeting standards. We must excite our students as future life long learners...

  • you now have the ability to not only view the document, but to make revisions or comments along the way.
  • Instead of emailing documents back and forth (which is a huge pain with many opportunities for confusion) teachers can go quickly to Drive, find and open the student’s paper in the Drive table of contents, and make “live” comments and corrections on the student’s paper.
  • To make a comment simply highlight a section with your cursor and click the “comment” button.
  • Just select File > See Revision history and click on any date/time.
  • If it’s too much detail, click on Show less detailed revisions.
  •  File > Download as… or simply choosing File > Print.
  • You can explore many tools for teachers at the Chrome store.
  • By using the freeLearnly Voice Comments tool, you can incorporate your own spoken comments into any Google Drive document.

Information Literacy and Librarian-Faculty Collaboration in Academic Library for Sustai... - 0 views

  • The ultimate goal is to make information literacy an integral part of the academic curriculum, thus helping students to succeed not only during their years in college but also for their lifelong career choices.
  • discussion about librarian-faculty collaboration for developing information literacy skills among the students are considered briefly.
  • ACRL further describes information literacy as abilities to: a. Determine the extent of information needed b. Access the needed information effectively and efficiently c. Evaluate information and its sources critically d. Incorporate selected information into one’s knowledge base e. Use information effectively to accomplish a specific purpose f. Understand the economic, legal, and social issues surrounding the use of information, and access and use information ethically and legally.

  • That solution has two fundamental underpinnings: the first is that information literacy is an issue for every college and university; and the second is that librarians should occupy a position in attempts to define and achieve campus-wide information literacy.
  • While it is legitimate to use some of the information available on the web, students need to learn how to evaluate that information.
  • A study conducted by two researchers at the Manchester Metropolitan University in the United Kingdom found that 75% of the students surveyed used Google as their first port of call when locating information, with the university library catalogue used by only 10%.
  • In general, faculty members involved in the process were willing to collaborate with librarians who served as consultants, as instructors, and as team players in designing, teaching and implementing course assignmen
  • One particular model which has proven to be effective is course integrated instruction. With this model, librarians and teaching faculty co-design a course, and make sure that information literacy is incorporated in the course.
  • They not only sought to build short-term programmatic partnerships but more importantly, formal long-term working relationships with campus units, groups, departments and administrators.
  • “Integrating Literacy into the Liberal Arts College Curriculum.
  • launched a campaign to recruit faculty as partners in the process
  • took advantage of the liaison system already in place
  • Symposiums were organized for faculty and librarians to focus on assessment and science disciplines.
  • offered a workshop
  • More and more course-related or integrated instruction sessions have come to play a bigger role in making students more information literate.
  • Changing fee structures, student experience and access to digitized information on the internet, librarians have had to rethink their approach to teaching IL skills
  • McGuinness (2007) argues that librarians tend to act in a reactive manner to the needs of academics, rather than proactively to promote IL skills.
  • eads to ad hoc, short-term solutions designed only to address one or two issues.
  • dds that librarians should align their own goals of incorporating IL skills into the curriculum with the goals of academics and institutions to influence the power structures within institutions and help shape educational content.
  • highlights both the ambiguity around how IL should be taught, and the important role faculty awareness of IL and integration of library staff plays in integrating IL
  • unpack the “culture clash” between librarians and academics
  • cGuinness (2006) found that academics expected students to “learn by doing” through collaborative projects with peers and dissertation reports with occasional support from staff, without a clear sense of how students would develop critical and analytical IL skills
  • aculty also tended to believe that a student’s ability to gain IL skills were driven by the student’s own motivation, interests and innate abilities, rather than the quality and format of the available instructional opportunities
  • Multiple literacies, including digital, visual, textual, and technological, have now joined information literacy as crucial skills for this century”
  • These collaborative efforts have enabled librarians to encourage and support faculty in establishing learning priorities which will ensure that students be equipped with the competencies to become effective lifelong learners.
  • Only by establishing a successful partnership between librarians and faculty, can the goal of mastery of information literacy by students be accomplished.
  • The goal of librarian-faculty collaboration in integrating information literacy into the curriculum is to enable students to learn the skills and competencies needed for success during their life time
  • To make sure that everyone is able to become an educated, skilled, and information-literate person, librarians and faculty at institutions of higher education throughout the world will need to work together as partners to provide the education

  • The need for the curriculum to be embedded into the academic curriculum was mentioned by almost all experts. The idea that information literacy could or should be taught in isolation from an academic discipline was not advocated.
  • Collaboration between academics, teachers, learning developers and librarians, not only in terms of drawing up the curriculum but also teaching it, was suggested.
  • Academics are involved in developing a curriculum to meet the University’s learning and teaching strategy, assisted by librarians and educational developers. The academics are embedding it in the curriculum with advice from the librarians. This means that students don’t see something separately labeled “information literacy” as opposed to academic learning.

  • I believe information literacy has to be context‐sensitive both in subject but also individual experience.
  • he need to build on knowledge over time and to ‘scaffold’ the learner with greater levels of support in their first year or at critical points in their career was highlighted. However,it was important for the curriculum to be coherent and to ‘fit together’ and as one expert said:
  • No longer should the library be trying to sell its resources as part of information literacy instruction. Rather than focusing on resources, IL instruction should be focusing on habits of mind. Librarians’ role as a guide through the information landscape should not be touted but demonstrated.
  • The IL curriculum needs to consider the whole students information experience – skills are just one aspect.
  • Collaboration between different groups of staff was considered to be extremely important in terms of the successful implementation of any information literacy strategy or curriculum.
  • student‐centred approach’.
  • experts were clear that information literacy should be timed to happen at the point of need, but also that it should extend beyond simple induction.
  • Effort needs to be made to embed IL into the curriculum at later stages as well.
  • scalable approach.
  • Collaboration between library staff and academics was widely advocated, with many experts recognizing the role that learning developers, IT staff and also students could play.
  • work together to integrate it into the learning experience.
  • Many experts felt it was critical to the success of a programme that an audit of student abilities was carried out at the outset, to help better understand the needs of the students and any gaps in their knowledge. It would also help in planning more meaningful sessions, as otherwise itwas very easy to make assumptions about what students might know
  • the concerns of the different stakeholders were considered.
  • For students the key is to make them see that IL expertise will improve their grades. Students will respond to this most of all. There is some evidence that the term ‘information literacy’ has no currency with students (maybe not academics either), so while we can use it to coordinate efforts within the library, avoid using it externally. We need to show how the library adds value ‐ and increases marks.
  • Librarians are no longer seen simply as gatekeepers of information, but partners with faculty helping to facilitate learning.
  • The experts talked about a reluctance by some librarians to regard teaching as part of their role and a lack of confidence around more discursive teaching techniques
  • there is a danger ofconfusing IT awareness with information literacy.
  • the digital natives literature has vastly over‐rated info skills of young people, and also they may think they have better skills than they do. At the same time you have to appreciate that some students will be highly skilled online and any introduction that begins at too basic a level will put them off.
  • Experts agreed that independent learning and information literacy were closely linked: Information literacy creates an independent learning style which can become a self sustainable habit thorough life which must surely be considered as a desirable graduate attribute.
  • Experts were unanimous in the need to include evaluation skills in the information literacy curriculum.
  • Rather, it emphasises the need for students to appreciate a wide range of resources used by researchers in their field, although some of those described below might be valuable for students in a variety of different academic disciplines.
  • intense, deep research skills are lacking. Being able to find not just "good enough" sources but the best sources is critical.
  • Many librarians might traditionally regard managing information as being solely about bibliographic management, but file management, management of web resources and also developing an understanding of how to keep up to date, should form a fundamental part of the curriculum.
  • Traditionally this might include an understanding of plagiarism, and citation and referencing techniques.
  • Sharing information appropriately also forms part of the ethical use of information.
  • The need to present like someone on TED talks. Is presentation an information literacy skill? It's a digital literacy skill. Being literate in the tools, modes and reach of your presentations (slideshare, podcast, recording and rights.)
  • I don’t know howyou get across to people that it’s not simply about finding the answer, it’s finding your voice to make a valid answer.
  • Managing your online identity, web presence or ‘digital footprint’
  • rodusage ‐ not a consumer but not a producer either ‐ ideas of production and consumption are pre‐internet concepts. Forces of publication/dissemination now much more wide‐spread, democratized. “Produsers” produce and use at the same time. IL is beginning to sound a bit stale
  • I suppose the idea of synthesising information from different sources – students really struggle with this ‐ the ideasof looking at two different sources and evaluate them – even if its not evaluating for quality, they might both have different opinions about something. Compare and contrast – that idea.
  • Part of it is developing citizens that are aware and socially conscious ... being an information conscious person and an IL person when it comes to elections and major issues like a referendum.... It’s ina much broader sense we are talking about when we talk about IL.

What Kind of Leader Are You? Traits, Skills and Styles - 4 views

  • The autocratic style is one in which a single person takes control and makes decisions, directing others in his or her chosen course of action. Lewin’s team found that this was the most unsatisfactory leadership style with the youth groups. In a democratic leadership style, one person takes control but is open to group input, often allowing the group to make decisions and collectively assign tasks. This leader guides rather than directs. This was the most popular leadership style in the youth groups and garnered the greatest positive response. With the laissez-faire approach, the person in charge stepped back and did nothing. He or she provided no direction or guidance. The group was disorganized and unproductive.
  • Modern leadership traits and skills Since the advancement of situational leadership, a number of other leadership styles have been identified. Peter Economy, also known as "The Leadership Guy," recently listed the qualities of today's best leadership in an Inc.com article. He encourages embodiment of these merits at all times to achieve phenomenal results. They are: Decisiveness Awareness Focus Accountability Empathy Confidence Optimism Honesty Inspiration
