Public Sticky notes
a “technology purchasing frenzy” is simply NOT the correct response to the realization that our schools are not doing enough to prepare students for their futures. This is really about changing adult perspectives and adult behaviors
Highlighted by ctscho
Expensive tech in the hands of educators who haven't made changes to their behaviors and instructional practice are no better than the good old chalk board, pencil, and paper.

begin discussions on your campus about how to transform your school into a place
where teachers see themselves first as LEARNERS who are invested in
improving their instructional practice through reflection and inquiry,
and where students are more globally connected in a way that enhances and
supports their individual learning.

Change adult behaviors and practices first... Change the way you work together, the way you speak with each other... Change your vocabulary... Begin by redefining yourselves as learners rather than educators...
Highlighted by ctscho
Commit to the belief that being “technophobic” or “technology illiterate” is no
longer an option for 21st Century learners (and after you've redefined
yourselves as learners, understand what that means for professional learning on
your campus)... Be firm about this -- it should NOT be okay on
your campus for ANYONE to say “I don't like technology” or “I'm just not very
techie... can you do this for me?”

change needed to happen yesterday...
Highlighted by mrkimmi
Give your teachers time to “play” with Web 2.0 -- to explore
the use of Web 2.0 (blogs, wikis, Twitter, etc.) for THEIR professional
learning BEFORE they attempt to use the same tools in the classroom
with students

reading and writing and connecting with other edublogging educators...
Highlighted by mrkimmi
Campus leaders should model the professional learning use of Web 2.0
tools through transparent blogging and wiki use with the faculty on a
weekly basis

the most important thing is a change in behaviors and practices -- a change in pedagogy --
Highlighted by ctscho
make system, process, and structural changes so that your school looks,
feels, and functions less like a factory and more like a globally connected
communications and learning center...

provide training that is a model of effective instruction and learning
practices... create cheerleaders who will coach other
professional learners and promote continual learning
