The document discusses the concept of a learning organization as popularized by Peter Senge in his 1990 book "The Fifth Discipline." It provides information on several key aspects of learning organizations, including that members are continually learning and the organization is highly adaptable. It also discusses the five disciplines of learning organizations according to Senge: building a shared vision, personal mastery, mental models, team learning, and systems thinking. The document aims to provide guidance for school administrators on how to create a learning organization culture in their schools.
The document summarizes the organizational structure of the Philippine education system. It outlines that the Department of Education (DepEd) is organized into a central office that administers basic education nationally and field offices that administer regionally and locally. It also describes the management structure from the regional director level down to school heads. Key parts of the structure include 16 regional offices, 157 schools divisions, 2,227 school districts, and over 48,000 public and private schools. The Governance of Basic Education Act of 2001 transformed DECS into DepEd and redefined the roles of field offices.
Leading educational change is complex and context specific. It requires leadership that considers the emotional impact of change on teachers and gains their trust and buy-in. Leaders must support and nurture new practices for change to take hold. While technology offers potential to develop student skills, large-scale change depends on building capacity through collaboration guided by supportive leadership.
The document outlines rules and regulations for implementing the ARMM Basic Education Act of 2010 in the autonomous region of Muslim Mindanao in the Philippines. It discusses the role and responsibilities of school heads for public elementary and high schools. School heads are to act as both instructional leaders and administrative managers. They are responsible for setting school vision, managing resources, developing educational programs, and encouraging community involvement to deliver quality education programs.
The DepEd Order provides guidelines for daily lesson preparation through the use of a Daily Lesson Log or Detailed Lesson Plan for teachers in K to 12. The guidelines aim to support teachers in effectively organizing instruction and ensuring learning outcomes are achieved. Daily lesson preparation is important as it helps teachers reflect on their instructional practices and student needs. The guidelines define key terms and outline the elements that should be included in a high-quality lesson plan such as objectives, content, learning activities, and assessment strategies. Adherence to the guidelines will help teachers uphold standards of quality education and facilitate successful teaching and learning.
The document discusses the history of education in America during the colonial period from 1642-1776. It explains that the earliest schools in Massachusetts colonies were started by Puritan settlers and focused on religious education, with the main goal being to teach children to read passages from the Bible. The schools emphasized Puritan church doctrines and religious discipline. This established the foundation for the early history of education in America during the colonial period.
This document provides an introduction to the course EDA 811: Concept and Theories of Educational Administration and Planning offered by the National Open University of Nigeria. The course is a core 2-credit course for students pursuing a M.Ed in Administration and Planning. The course aims to expose students to key concepts and theories in educational administration and planning to help them better perform administrative roles in educational settings. The 19 units will cover topics such as the nature of administration, organizational principles and theories, decision making, school administration, educational planning approaches, and the administration of education in Nigeria. Upon completing the course, students should have an understanding of important concepts and theories and be able to apply them to practice administrative tasks and roles in education.
Teaching and Learning Challenges in the 21st CenturyShama Javed
This document discusses challenges and strategies for teaching and learning in the 21st century. It outlines the evolving nature of jobs and skills needed by modern learners, including digital literacy. Key strategies recommended for teachers include blended learning, cross-curricular teaching, flipped classrooms, differentiated instruction, cooperative learning, and integrating technology. The document emphasizes that technology should be used as a tool to bring students and teachers together for enriched learning, and that teachers must also continue developing their skills as lifelong learners.
This document discusses the social foundations of curriculum. It explains that curriculum is influenced by issues in society including groups, institutions, culture, and their contributions to education. Some key aspects that need consideration in curriculum making are changes in societal structures, transmission of culture, social problems, and economic issues. The document also discusses how curriculum aims to develop social feelings and qualities in students, prepare them for society, and transmit cultural heritage while being flexible and responsive to social needs. Teachers are expected to possess social behaviors and attitudes that can transmit democratic values to students. The school environment should reflect and simplify society while developing skills like problem solving and social adjustment in students.
The document discusses trends, issues, and policies in the Philippine education system. It provides a history of the Philippine education system from pre-Spanish era to present. It identifies problems in access to basic education, quality of basic education, and weaknesses in the public school system such as low budgets, teacher shortages, and classroom shortages. It also outlines policies to improve access and quality such as establishing schools in underserved areas, creating teaching positions, and implementing a Social Reform Agenda.
The document discusses the future of education and work. It notes how the world and skills needed for work are rapidly changing. It emphasizes that education must adapt to these changes by developing skills for the future, making sense of new opportunities, and addressing industry needs. The goals of education 4.0 are suggested to include a millennial approach for learners, enabling new possibilities, and blueprinting future learning to create lifelong learners and better roles in society. The future of education is discussed as needing to be exciting by learning new things in different ways from each other and not trying to learn everything.
This document outlines an in-service training for teachers from March 15-19, 2021 on localizing and indigenizing intervention materials for least mastered competencies. It defines localization as relating learning content to local information and materials, and indigenization as enhancing curriculum competencies in relation to the learners' socio-cultural context. Examples are given of how to localize and indigenize specific math and science competencies using local community references. Least mastered competencies are defined as those not mastered by over half the class, not taught, or too difficult for learners. Teachers are tasked with identifying the least mastered competencies from the second quarter.
The Rennie Center for Education Research & Policy will present findings from their recent research report, A New Era of School Reform: Preparing All Students for Success in College, Career and Life, that highlights the strategies Massachusetts superintendents, charter school leaders, principals and teachers are using to incorporate 21st century skills into teaching and learning in order to better prepare their students for postsecondary success. Presenters will provide examples that illustrate what the integration of 21st century skills looks like at the district, school and classroom levels.
Instructional leadership focuses on improving teaching and learning, while administrative leadership deals more with managerial tasks. Principals wear many hats and must balance these roles. However, principals often spend little time on instructional leadership due to other duties and a lack of training in this area. Good instructional leadership involves setting goals, monitoring lessons, allocating resources to support instruction, and understanding the classroom perspective. It transforms a school by articulating a vision, being supportive and empowering, and promoting change to benefit students. The characteristics of good instructional leadership include knowledge of change management, confidence, communication skills, and enthusiasm for bringing stakeholders together to improve outcomes.
The document discusses different educational philosophies including perennialism, essentialism, progressivism, existentialism, and behaviorism. Perennialism focuses on teaching classic works and developing students' rational and moral powers through Socratic dialogue. Essentialism emphasizes acquiring basic skills and transmitting traditional values through mastery of core subjects. Progressivism aims to develop citizens through experience-based, problem-solving education tied to students' lives. Existentialism encourages self-reflection and personal responsibility through flexible, self-paced learning. Behaviorism views learning as the modification of observable behaviors using reinforcement and incentives.
This document outlines the characteristics of 21st century teachers, students, and learning. It identifies teachers as needing to fulfill roles like resource provider, instructional specialist, and learning facilitator. Teachers must also possess skills like being well-versed in language, stimulating critical thinking, and being tech-savvy. 21st century students are described as needing to analyze, synthesize and apply knowledge to address new needs rather than just acquire information. Compared to 20th century students, 21st century students are more visual, hands-on, personal, and tech-savvy in their learning approach.
The document discusses the history and development of curriculum in the Philippines. It outlines the motives and influences that have shaped curriculum over time, including religious, political, utilitarian, and mass education factors. The document also details the major curriculum approaches used in the Philippines, including the K-12 Basic Education Curriculum currently implemented. It describes the standards, assessment methods, grading system, and reporting process of the Philippine curriculum.
The document discusses several problems with the Philippine educational system, including a decline in education quality, poor performance on national and international assessments, lack of affordability resulting in high dropout rates among disadvantaged students, low budget allocation to education relative to other ASEAN countries, and a mismatch between the skills taught and actual job requirements. Specific issues covered include outdated textbooks, lack of research in higher education, high pupil-teacher ratios, difficulties disciplining and engaging male students, and over-reliance on rote memorization teaching methods.
Telecom operators are central to the French digital ecosystem, accounting for around 60% of revenues, 75% of employment, and around 90% of investments and taxes. As digital demand grows in France, there is a need for highly performing networks that can ensure network security, high connection speeds, reliable service, and sufficient network capacity to support innovative new digital services. However, declining revenues in the telecom sector in Europe are starting to reduce investments, posing a challenge for developing networks to meet future needs. Proposals are needed to strengthen telecom operators and develop a strong digital offering in France and Europe.
NHRDN Virtual Learning Session on Encouraging an environment of innovationNational HRD Network
The document discusses the important role of frontline leaders in encouraging innovation. It emphasizes that creativity drives innovation and outlines three key leader behaviors needed to promote innovation: building trust to take risks, helping employees through risks, and facilitating purposeful change. Frontline leaders must inspire curiosity, challenge assumptions, and think differently to overcome innovation challenges and drive meaningful change.

What makes a Good Leader. Lessons, tips, Insights & more.
A crisp summary of the book "Strategies for Taking Charge" : Warren Bennis & Burt Nanus by D Shivakumar, Chairman & CEO - India Region, PepsiCo
The document outlines three keys to innovative leadership presented by Dr. Bobby Gilstrap. Key #1 discusses five intangibles of innovative leaders: they lead with drive, insight, personal connection, are contemplative, and lead with passion. Key #2 discusses seven principles: know yourself, let go of the past, learn your purpose, live with openness to change, learn teamwork, share leadership, and let creativity flourish. Key #3 discusses seven practices: listen to God, listen to people, help others succeed, speak truth in love, build networks, pursue excellence, and model stability.
The document discusses principles for innovation management. It argues that traditional management focuses on stability and efficiency through standardized processes, while innovation requires experimentation and flexibility to address uncertainty. Effective innovation management requires an entrepreneurial approach of building new advantages through cross-functional teams, frequent testing of ideas, and viewing failures as learning opportunities rather than risks to avoid. The role of leadership is to guide experimentation by setting challenges, providing resources, and acting as a "chief experimenter" who learns through testing new approaches.
In today’s business environment, there is constant need to look for new opportunities. The risk of doing business as usual means failure. How can we take advantage of new emerging technologies? We get overload of new products and services, but it is not easy to see the real trends.
In this lecture we look at how to spot trends and how to recognize shift in people’s behaviour. We also explore some tactics we can apply to find new business models and introduce the Innovator's Method, a framework for starting a business in a lean way.

The Jewish Trinity : Sabbath,Shekinah and Sanctuary 4.pdfJackieSparrow3
we may assume that God created the cosmos to be his great temple, in which he rested after his creative work. Nevertheless, his special revelatory presence did not fill the entire earth yet, since it was his intention that his human vice-regent, whom he installed in the garden sanctuary, would extend worldwide the boundaries of that sanctuary and of God’s presence. Adam, of course, disobeyed this mandate, so that humanity no longer enjoyed God’s presence in the little localized garden. Consequently, the entire earth became infected with sin and idolatry in a way it had not been previously before the fall, while yet in its still imperfect newly created state. Therefore, the various expressions about God being unable to inhabit earthly structures are best understood, at least in part, by realizing that the old order and sanctuary have been tainted with sin and must be cleansed and recreated before God’s Shekinah presence, formerly limited to heaven and the holy of holies, can dwell universally throughout creation

Introduction
Leadership, Innovation and
Why Educational Innovation?
7 Steps to becoming an Innovative Leader
18 Steps to Better Educational
Innovation Leadership
(Advice from Christensen’s Innovator’s DNA)
3. Innovative Leadership and its formal preparation is the most
recent focus in education reform to improve schools to serve
all children well.
In recent years, schools have
charted new direction in their
graduate leadership
preparation programs using
innovative approaches to
student selection, content,
instructional strategies and
field experiences to address
new priorities for leadership.
Inter-institutional collaborations in program delivery and
evaluation drives these new directions and forms of innovation.
4. Example:
To be the center of excellence,
renown internationally for
Innovative Educational
Leadership
exceeding expectation of 21st
Century National Standards put
forward By the Teacher
Training Agency
5. Leadership Definition
Leadership : described as “a process of social influence
in which one person can enlist the aid and support of
others in
the accomplishment of a common task”.
Good leaders- made not born.
Effective leader- desire and will power
through a never ending process of selfstudy, education, training, and experience
(Jago, 1982).
To inspire your workers into higher levels of
teamwork, you must:- -be, know and, do.
These do not come naturally, but are
acquired through continual work and study.
Good leaders continually improve their
leadership skills; they are NOT resting on
their laurels.
6. Innovation means first different,
then better. That is, innovating is a
fundamentally different way of
doing things that result in
considerably better, and perhaps
different, outcomes.
Both the 'different' and the 'better'
must be significant and
substantial.
7. ‘‘But if you define innovation as doing things radically
differently rather than just doing them well, right now many
of the best charters are triumphs of execution rather than
Innovation’’. Washor's piece for The Huffington Post,
published in October, 2009:
8. When it comes to
education, what
does the word
innovation mean
to you?
9. Innovation in Education
“Personally I feel that innovation in education
should be defined as making it easier for
teachers and students to do the things THEY
want to do. These are the innovations that
succeed, scale and sustain.”
– Rob Abel, USA
10. Innovation in Education
Educators need to think of innovating as those
actions that significantly challenge key assumptions
about schools and the way they operate.
Therefore, to innovate is to question the 'box' in
which we operate and to innovate outside of it as
well as within.”
11. If
we redesign schools to get better
results on 20th-century outcomes,
our students will be poorly served.
Innovation requires risk and it
requires patience -most inventions
that are commonplace today are the
results of thousands of iterations
based both on success and failure.
12. While many of the charter schools and charter
organizations are making huge improvements in
traditional outcomes for students, most are not
new or different.
Many of the proposed improvements in teacher
education and evaluation, student assessment, and
school design in traditional public schools do not
seem to be novel.
Yet the challenges that we face in improving
learning and life outcomes require true innovation.
As Washor states,
We need solutions that are both different and better.
13. Driving Innovation and Collaboration
Innovations are commonly thought of as new and game
changing. However, many innovations are improvements
on something that already exists. It is important to
create
a culture of innovation within your
organization, which means supporting productive failure.
The stages Cycle of Innovation
will help your organization
become successful in
identifying new ideas,
implementing and integrating
them into your operations.
You must engrain this cycle
into the DNA of your
14. Blink! . . ten years pass by. It’s now end of
2013!.
A brand new generation of
institutional leaders is taking the
reins. The world has continued to
shrink and is much smaller.
Technology continued an unabated,
unchecked progression; what is
now futuristic has become
commonplace.
Complexity is the daily norm, and
CHANGE the only constant.
Opportunities, problems and grand
challenges abound.
15. Will this new generation of leaders be innovators,
or followers?..., strong, resilient problem solvers,
or servants of the status quo?
The answer has everything
to do with education . . .
or how education is
adapted to the realities and
wonderful opportunities of
the not-too-distant future.
16. What do educators need to provide for the next
generation of positive, innovative leaders?
If core competencies are
assumed (engineers need to
engineer, accountants need
to account, writers need to
write and so on…)
What will be the key elements
of an education that might
help students become lifelong learners, successful in
multiple, varied career paths?
19. Is it better for students to be involved in
innovative practices than participate in highly
effective traditional programs?
or, Should we play it safe and have them attend
schools that look like the schools we attended
30 years ago and our parents 60 years ago and
grandparents, 90 years ago?
Currently, most schools are not much
different than the one our grandparents
attended in the
1920s!.
21. Innovation Leadership is……….
synthesizing different leadership styles in
organizations to influence to produce creative
ideas, products, services and solutions.
Dr. David Gliddon (2006) developed the competency model of innovation leaders and
established the concept of innovation leadership at Penn State University.
The key role in the
practice of innovation
leadership is the…
Innovation Leader.
22. Innovation Leadership
As an approach to
organization development,
innovation
leadership can be used to
support the achievement of
the mission or vision of an
organization or school.
In an ever changing world with new technologies and
processes, it is becoming necessary to think innovatively in
order to ensure their continued success and stay competitive.
23. Adapting to new changes in Leadership
“the need for innovation in
organizations has resulted in
a new focus on the role of
leaders in shaping the nature
and success of creative
efforts” in order to adapt to
new changes.
Without innovation leadership,
organizations are likely to
struggle.
24. The 21st century shift, Innovative Thinking
This new call for innovation, a
shift from 20th century traditional
view of organizational practices,
which discouraged employee
innovative behaviors, to the
21st century view of valuing
innovative thinking as a
“potentially powerful influence
on organizational performance”.
25. 21st Century Teaching & Learning
Our students are waiting for 21st century learning,
and our world is awaiting graduates who can

32. The new “3 C’s” of Education
21st Century Teaching & Learning
Communicate Collaborate
Create
To live and succeed in the
present world, students will
need for an increased focus
on communication,
collaboration, and
creativity and
an emphasis
on teaching them to use
technology in order to
learn how to learn, solve
problems, and think
creatively.
33. 21st Century Skills
Students must be taught how to use technology efficiently and
effectively, ethically and appropriately, safely and respectfully to
learn how to learn, solve problems, and think creatively.
35. Seven steps to becoming an Innovative Leader.
-shared by Cheryl Lemke on
Innovative Leadership.
President and CEO of the education
technology consulting firm Metiri Group
36. Step1.
Embrace the challenge
Innovative leaders do not
delegate creativity and
innovation; they lead it.
And innovative leaders
cultivate a culture of critical and
creative thinking that takes on
challenges.
By the way, creativity topped the
list of the most important
leadership qualities needed over
the next five years, according to a
2010 IBM poll of 1,500 CEOs.
37. Step1.
Embrace the challenge
At High Tech in the San Diego area,
leaders challenged the concept that
they had to move students from class
to class throughout the day. They
presented the staff with the challenge
and asked them to come up with a
creative solution. As a result, the
teachers created a new schedule. In
the morning, one educator teaches
language arts and social studies. And
in the afternoon, another educator
teaches math and science.
38. Step2.
Drive change through collective creativity and
knowledge
Innovative leaders
show creativity and
seek knowledge.
When they drive
change, they both
tolerate and criticize
digital technology —
and the way kids use
it.
39. Step3.
Shape the culture
Innovative leaders create a
culture of risk, change, critical
and creative thinking.
They think for themselves, and
not just follow rules blindly. A
shift from rules to principles.
Schools are open to different
ideas and break established rules
when they no longer make sense.
They ask hard questions and expect the school community to
grapple with the questions alongside them. And they
really listen to what educators say.
40. Step 3.
Shape the culture
"As a leader, if you’re in a
meeting, you should be
talking the least of anyone
else in that meeting,”
Lemke said.
A number of years ago, a new
principal in Illinois met with
his staff and said they had
one year to turn their school
around. If they didn't, the
Illinois State Board of
Education would shut it down.
41. Step 3.
Shape the culture
The principal didn't change any of
the staff members in the school
when he arrived. Instead, he asked
for their ideas on how to meet the
challenge. He said they had to
break some rules and wanted to
know what they really wanted to do.
"By the end of the year, they had a
plan in place, and the following year
they were off probation," Lemke
said. "It was really astounding.”
42. Step 4.
Establish a Professional Learning System
Innovative leaders create
professional learning communities
in their schools. According to
Professional Learning in the
Learning Profession:,
effective professional learning is:
sustained over time, content-based
embedded in professional learning
communities focused on concrete
tasks in teaching, assessment,
observation and reflection modeled
in authentic settings
43. Step 5.
Decide and systematize
Innovative leaders
create a blueprint of
principles, professional
development,
strategies, approaches
and resources. Then
they get out of the way
and let their staff figure
out the details.
44. Step 6.
Ensure digital access and infrastructure
Innovative leaders will build the
capacity for teachers and
students to learn through
blogs, wikis and virtual
environments by laying a solid
infrastructure foundation.
"Without that, you’re not going
to be able to orchestrate a lot
of the things that they’re
doing,” Lemke said.
45. Step 7.
Demand accountability
Innovative leaders delegate
responsibility but put accountability
in place. In the beginning, they set
low stakes so that people become
comfortable with taking risks, failing
and learning by experience.
"The people that you have in your
system right now are capable of
doing the kind of innovation we want
to happen," she said. "Many of them
just don’t have the opportunity.”
In conclusion, she said that
Innovative leaders need to give
them that opportunity!.
46. Successful schools have a clear sense
of direction through Vision Statement.
–shared & derived through a visioning
process involving all members of the
school.
Once affirmed, it needs to be able to be
articulated by all.
-when achieved, everyone can then align
their efforts behind the vision and by a
process of self-reference and
professional development the school will
reach.
Translation into reality by means of a
Teaching Framework or belief system.

49. Five Core Skills of Innovators Framework
Associating,
Questioning,
Observing,
Networking,
Experimenting.
50. School leadership
The focus of above five traits, particularly for teaching
and learning is upon School Leadership concluding
three chapters,
People,
Processes, and
Philosophies
to draw and to offer 15 takeaways for Principals and
School Leaders:
51. Heidi Hayes Jacobs:
”If you’re not updating your curriculum,
you are saying that nothing is changing.”
“Nearly two-thirds (63 percent)
of school administrators who
responded to a recent survey
said 1:1 computing classrooms
where teachers act as a coach
for students are the future of
education.” (T.H.E Journal)
52. “Innovative teaching supports students’ development
of the skills that will help them thrive in future life and
work.” (IT Research)
53. The pressure to adapt is the need to innovate.
But how?
When faced with confusion or a
problem, our instinct is to repair
it with order.
We examine and analyze the
situation, looking for logic.
Unfortunately, the rapid analysis
and rational decision-making
used has serious limitations.
Current problems and
circumstances become so
complex, they don’t fit previous
patterns. We don’t recognize the
situation. We can’t automatically
know what to do.
54. The pressure to adapt is the need to innovate.
But how?
What worked before doesn’t
work today.
To make effective sense of
unfamiliar situations and
complex challenges, we must
have a grasp of the whole
situation, its variables,
unknowns and mysterious
forces.
This requires skills beyond
everyday analysis. It requires
Innovation Leadership.
55. Adapted from Christensen’s
Innovator’s DNA, a fine
resource for thinking about
practical and inspirational
steps we can all take as
school-leaders to advance
educational innovation within
our schools.
Seeking to facilitate our students’ development of more
innovative mindsets from Clayton Christensen (et.al)
56. 1. Own as Principal the role of Innovator-in-Chief:
You can’t delegate innovation:
“Innovation distinguishes between a leader
and a follower’’
Steve Jobs.
57. 2. Make your practice of “active innovation” visible
-such that “everyone sees or hears about it.”
It is not just practice
innovation ourselves, but
find ways to demonstrate it
publicly to model it for our
communities and inspire
those with whom we work.
In faculty meetings, student assemblies, or online via
blogging and social media, find ways to showcase your
innovation leadership.
58. 3.Create complementary teams…
…in school leadership, balancing innovation to discover
strengths at the top with delivery skills very nearby.
”Delivery skills”
analyzing
planning
self-disciplined
detail oriented
implementing
59. Take initiative as Principal to observe closely what other
schools are doing, from across many educational sectors:
K-12 and post-secondary, private, public, charter, etc.
My own most powerful
learning and innovativemind developing activity
has been, visiting other
schools shadowing
students, and blogging
my observations.
60. 5.”Arrange for employee swaps”
-with other schools and organizations. This is something
almost never heard of in education, but what a great
Idea!
Swap elementary and
high school teachers for
a week, swap admin and
teachers inside the same
school or better with
schools with sharply
different methodologies
or philosophies.
61. 5.”Arrange for employee swaps”
At our school we are
embarking on teacher
swaps with our two new
“sister” schools in
Hermosillo, Mexico, and
believe the result will be
greater innovation in both
schools.
62. 6. Ask Why?
Use this method as school-leader with your team and
with your constituencies:
”When confronted
with a problem, ask
yourself why at least
5 times to unravel
causal chains and
spark ideas for
innovative solutions.”
63. 7. Seek people who “had invented something”
-when hiring….,
“seek people who held deep expertise in a particular
knowledge area, and demonstrated a passion to change
the world through excellent products and services.”
”Clearly if companies
want innovative ideas
from employees, they
should screen for
innovation potential in
the hiring process.”
64. 8.”Innovators want to work with, and for other
innovators.”
With each innovation hire,
and each positive step
modeling and positively
reinforcing innovation, you
are turning the flywheel in
your school for increased
momentum towards
becoming an innovation
hub.
65. 9. Embed innovation as an “explicit”, consistent
element of performance reviews
Ask every teacher every year
in self-evaluation and
performance review to
identify and reflect upon
their innovative practices,
risks taken, and lessons
learned. Hold everyone
accountable for the practice
of innovation.
66. 10. ”Develop formal and informal processes to facilitate
knowledge exchanges.” to help our fine people
We need
share more than they do at present
in our schools; we need to lift
them up out of classroom silos
and into collaborative exchanges.
Is there more we can do to help
teachers and administrators have
lunch together?
Can we set up online sharing
networks for people to contribute
to from across the organization?
67. 10. ”Develop formal and informal processes to facilitate
knowledge exchanges.”
Are we doing enough to
generate PLC’s?
”It’s totally possible for you
to be sitting by someone
who has been working in an
area that you were not
interested in.
And then suddenly a
discussion with that person
may trigger some new ideas
for both of you.”
68. 11. Network externally.
Our silos are not only within our
schools, but our schools themselves are
too often silos, isolated from strong
networks. “Over the last few years,
companies have increasingly looked
outside their own walls for new ideas.”
One example I have seen of
highlighting
this kind of external networking comes
from New York’s Riverdale Country
School, which has a web-page celebrating all its many external organization
connections, a page they are regularly seeking to add to and strengthen.
To quote: “Riverdale is a great school, but great institutions are measured
by their collaboration with other great organizations.
69. 12. Practice Beta testing and Prototyping.
It is not enough to come up with
ideas; as Principals we have to put
them in place and see what happens.
The book quotes leading innovators:
“How do I do this now?” ”Screw it.
Let’s do it.”
As at Google, “Institutionalize experiments by using “beta” labels
to release products early and often for public trials, allowing
Google to quickly get direct customer feedback.
It pursues innovation by having hundreds of small teams persue
and pilot new projects simultaneously.”
70. 12. Practice Beta testing and Prototyping.
My favorite word in
educational leadership is
“pilot.”
I regularly attach it to
experiments underway,
letting people know there
is room here for multiple
iterations, and if it doesn’t
end up being effective,
we’ll take it down and try
another approach.
71. 13. Build many small, diverse teams for projects.
At Google, “engineers typically
work in teams of only three to
six people. ‘We try to keep it
small.
You just don’t get productivity
out of large groups.’
The result is an empowered,
flexible organization with small
teams pursuing hundreds of
projects, an approach that
Schmidt claims ‘lets a thousand
flowers bloom.’”
72. 13. Build many small, diverse teams for projects.
Remember Margaret Mead:
”Never doubt that a
small group of
thoughtful, committed
citizens can change the
world. Indeed, it is the
only thing that ever
has.”
73. 14. Communicate and reinforce that Innovation is
everyone’s job. To read and realize that “the Think
Different campaign at Apple “targeted
Apple’s employees as much as its
customers.”
Steve Jobs explained:
“The whole purpose of the Think
Different campaign was that people
had forgotten what Apple stood for,
including its employees.”
What are we doing to convey
effectively that “innovation is
everyone’s job”
74. 15. Make innovation an explicit core value of your
school
”Companies incorporate
innovation, creativity, and
curiosity into their core
values, in word and deed.”
At my current school, we
embedded the importance of
“innovation” in our mission
and our slogan: “Creating
Leaders and Innovators.”
75. 16. “Give more time for innovation.”
”Innovative leaders know that
innovation doesn’t just happen but
requires a significant time
commitment… budget more human
and financial resources to innovation
activities.” One of our greatest
opportunities as school leaders is
also one of our most challenging, but
let’s not yield in the face of the
difficulty: Find, carve out, insist upon
more time for collaboration, more
time for shared reflective practice,
and more time for innovation.
76. 17. Create “a safe space for others to innovate.”
Encourage questions,
especially tough ones, and
watch and listen. Encourage
everybody to ask why on a
daily basis.
”Researchers call this
psychological safety in which
team members willingly express
opinions, take risks, run
experiments, and acknowledge
mistakes without punishment.”
77. 18. Model your risk taking and your learning from
failure.
Principals can make more visible
their risks, their failures, and
their learning from failure, to
better model these practices.
”The most essential part of
creativity is not being afraid to
Fall.
For innovators and innovative companies alike mistakes are
nothing to be ashamed of. They are an expected cost of doing
business. ‘You do enough new things and you’re going to bet
wrong,’ says Jeff Bezos.”
78. Innovative learning - inside or outside of school walls?
Sitting in a classroom
learning information is
rapidly disappearing.
Innovative ways to become
engaged in the learning
process and to increase
content knowledge ,
- occurs in the community,
working on projects or to
sustain the school itself.
79. Field-Based Learning
◦ Practice skills in a realistic setting, more likely to see the big
picture behind what they are learning. Field-based learning
provides that opportunity. An innovative program gives
student a chance to perform work in a real-life setting.
For example, students
who are learning
about ancient history
might spend time
working on an
archeological dig in
the area.
80. Mentoring
- an innovative practice being implemented in schools
across the nation. Often, mentoring consists of experienced
teachers assisting teachers who are new to the field.
◦ Mentoring programs train
students to mentor other
students are on the rise - helping
new students to integrate into
the school, assist in conflict
resolution and do peer tutoring.
Mentoring provides opportunity
to be leaders and can help unify
a student body.
81. Project-Based Learning
Projects can show students how disciplines as diverse as
English, science and math are interrelated - can be
developed to accommodate almost any curriculum.
For example,
A science teacher builds an
Electrolyzer with the students to
demonstrate Electrolysis of water with
soda to its gases form , who learned all
of the skills that accompany the built
and implementation and were engaged
in the process.
The students enjoyed the recognition
the project and gained confidence in
their abilities.
