the "positive contagion." Leaders matter less for the ideas that they possess and more for their ability to connect ideas (sometimes controversial) and people across their organizations.

I'm a little partial to this video because it includes a segment on the importance of librarians in implementing change. "Trust is about empowerment and creating permission for people to take risks in such a way that enables them to innovate, to iterate." "...have realistic expectations for what's going to happen. As much as there's a learning curve for students, there is very much for adults, too..."

When Teachers and Administrators Collaborate | Edutopia - 0 views

See what it looks like when a district that has a strong collaborative culture undertakes a major initiative like implementing the Common Core.

A great article that is about the importance of teacher/administrator collaboration. I like that it addressed that the biggest reason collaboration doesn't happen in schools is because there is a lack of time but we need to make time to collaborate for our students.
Teachers Need a Growth Mindset Too | Edutopia - 0 views

Focus on the hard stuff. I remember early on in my teaching career realizing that while I was doing a pretty good job getting students to read and discuss literature, I was not really teaching them writing. So I decided to schedule the block day in our week as a writing day. Ten years and thousands of pages of creative writing later, I still had not successfully taught my students to write a research paper, so I blocked out three full weeks in our schedule to work through the process from beginning to end. Rather than focus on what I know is humming along fine, I look for the weaknesses. Usually, these are the areas that don’t come naturally, or that I don’t like very much myself. (And I still sort of despise research papers.) But when I focus on the hard stuff, I am a providing a much better learning experience for my students.

have tried some crazy things as a teacher. Some I realized were flops immediately, while some I pushed through for months before admitting that they weren’t working out. But some of those innovations have saved my sanity, and I would never have tried them if I had been afraid to fail

Understand trait theory of leadership is and how you can adopt some of the required cha... - 0 views
-
Trait theory of leadership is one of the first academic theories of leadership and attempts to answer why some people are good leaders and others are not.
-
Proponents to this theory, which is now considered largely out of date, believe that leadership development consists of identifying and measuring leadership qualities, screening potential leaders from non-leaders, and then training those with potential.
-
As a result, it is prudent to first understand these ‘traits’ and then develop areas of weakness, in order to become a great leader yourself.

but today, reading is no longer the number one skill students need to take from school to succeed. Technology is.
-
In these digital times, is it still worthwhile to teach students how to write by hand, calculate in their heads, read, and define words and concepts—that is, most of the elementary school curriculum? Or is that like teaching kids how to hunt for their food? That was useful—once. We say we want kids to think, act, and relate effectively in their future. But many of the "new" Common Core State Standards serve only the needs of the 19th and 20th centuries.
