Looking For Learning In 21st Century Classrooms – Questions from leaders for leaders
Over the past year I have been working with my leadership team on re-connecting them with the teaching and learning going on within our 1:1 program. Our laptop program is over 10 years old however they felt it was time to re-educate themselves on the opportunities and best practices that they should be looking for during their classroom visits and conversations with teachers. From these meetings sprung our “pilot classroom project” where we took two classrooms, gutted them and tried to optimize them for 1:1 teaching & learning. Power is distributed around the edges of the room, all furniture is mobile and easily re-configured for different learning environments and lessons.
I finally put all these conversations, ideas and reflections down into one presentation that I will be giving today at the LCC “ReThink IT” conference in Montreal. As new and old school leaders struggle with feeling out of touch as “users” of all these new tools because they are no longer in the classroom I try to provide “guiding questions” that will help lead to deeper teacher mentoring, professional development and teacher reflection on practice in the classroom.
I would be remiss if I did mention that this presentation has actually been re-mixed from a presentation that former college and partner in crime Dennis Harter (@dharter) did for the EARCOS Leadership conference last year.Β This presentation would not have been possible without his ideas and words.
