Reality - change is difficult 

What is a relevant teacher doing - 
  • flipping their classroom and allowing for the role of the students to be the teacher
EasyBib - app   Write smart

  • not afraid of access to information. - students can use voice apps. Allowing use of technology in exams is real.
  • not making students do what adults don’t do.
  • meeting students where they are at. - personalise programs    -   The End of Average - by Todd Rose, book.    
  • portfolio’s showing your work, authentic, reflecting on it.
  • Daniel Pink - key     Autonomy Mastery Purpose         
  •  the ‘shoulder shrug' video
  • iTime       Alison White    individual approach
  • TRi time  Imagine investigate iterate
  • Have to think about ways to ‘Make Room’ 
  • find ways to not follow instructions
  • doing it the way Mr Green says is not 21st century skills. - developing innovators, inspiring creativity, connecting to their lives.

  • Contrast , repetition, 
  • Super powers -‘fruit ninja’ video
  • Ultimate goal - stay relevant, Be a learner - growth and change to improve your practice.
  • Teachers - Be a learner and be relevant. 

So What, What Next?
Have to think about ways to ‘Make Room’.  That statement leaps out to me. How do we achieve this? Our timetable is overcrowded with requirements. Where do we go next? We need to move from the structured timetable to allow for the personalized learning and creativity we want for our students.
