Since the dawn of the computer revolution, the promise of PERSONAL Computing has been ever present. Yet, when we simply leave students to their own devices, technology can serve to depersonalize their experiences. This is especially true of their educational experiences. Meanwhile, as teachers we struggle to effectively manage truly differentiated learning environments. However, this need not be the case. Together, we will explore the possibilities and potential afforded by today’s technology and empower you to utilize technology resources to make learning personal, meaningful, and differentiated for today’s connected students.

the art of creativity: asking provocative questionsJoyce Hostyn
Since we live in the world our questions create, "the most interesting thing you can do in life... is to call into question the rules of the game.” Questions make the impossible possible, help the unknown become known, and transform paradigms. To transform yourself, transform your organization, or transform the world learn the art of asking provocative questions.
Leaders need to help people challenge the sacred, challenge the typical ways of thinking. This is a slide show from a talk I gave at Tamarack's Poverty Reduction Summit in May 2015 in Ottawa.

The First Order of Business - Garden Center Fall Event 2016Tim Miles
In addition to being the subject of Tim Miles' obsession over the last four years, The First Order of Business is a framework that categorizes and prioritizes communication, branding, and marketing for any family business or non-profit organization.
It’s also the baseline we use to analyze, diagnose and treat problem areas in our clients’ companies.
But, more than that, it shows our clients what deserves the greatest priority in their marketing, and in fact, what’s got to come first, second, third, fourth, and fifth for any business to be successful.

The Generation Gap is Getting Old - Why Older Generations Need to Build Bridg...Brian Solis
As a digital analyst and anthropologist, Brian Solis has studied the effects of technology on markets and societies. In his work, he observed consistent, preconceived opinions about Millennials and Centennials that are not based on reason or actual experience. Brian developed this Slideshare to give a voice to Millennials and Centennials among audiences who are quick to judge younger generations. When it comes to leadership, there is much work to be done. After all, it's not about "us vs. them." It's about "us" and how "we" pave a more productive, collaborative and rewarding future for all.

Excerpts from Who Are You? - Wizard AcademyTim Miles
I showed the students *why* most mission and vision statements were so terrible, and also *why* they never needed one but needed something much, much deeper if they wanted to get and keep clients and customers. With the exception of two, the questions I gave them to begin this journey didn’t come from business leaders. Many of them, they’ve heard before, but never for this purpose or this context. Isn’t that what creativity is: Looking at old things in new ways? In a moment, I’m going to share a few of those questions with you, too. What you do with them is entirely up to you. WARNING: It might seem kinda weird to you.
Excerpts from "Daddy, I have a question." - Wizard AcademyTim Miles
A simple story about a complicated journey that led me to understanding everything I thought I knew about communication was wrong. It took a young man with a communications “disorder” (normies call it that) to open our eyes, ears, hearts, and minds to true connection. I showed our students there are many different kinds of minds and what a wonderful thing that is. Here’s what I shared with them. WARNING: It might seem kinda weird to you.

2. ME?40Years of Curiosity
20Years of Getting Paid to be Curious
Hundreds of business owners
Hundreds of non-profit leaders
Hundreds of mentors, instructors, and leaders.
11. For it to be effective, curiosity has to be
harnessed to at least two other key traits.
First, the ability to pay attention to
the answers to your questions—
you have to actually absorb whatever it
is you’re being curious about. Second
is the ability to act.

36. Human relationships are rich and they’re
messy and they’re demanding. And we
clean them up with technology.
And when we do, one of the things that
can happen is that we sacrifice
conversation for mere connection.
We short-change ourselves. And over
time, we seem to forget this, or we seem
to stop caring.

42. There's no question whatsoever that
multitasking, especially among those who do it
the most, is at the very least ineffective and at
the worst, harmful.
Basically, they are worse at most of the kinds
of thinking not only required for multitasking
but what we generally think of as involving
deep thought.

Walker, was born October 27, 1951 in Houston, Texas.
She departed this life on Friday, June 28, 2013.
Most recently she was recognized for sharing her
expertise on the PBS production of TED Talks. The
ABC television news magazine, 20/20 reported,
"Educator Rita F. Pierson talks about the bond that is
missing between educators and students". It was viewed
and modeled for educators as far away as New
Zealand. Over one million online viewers watched the
2013 TED Talks. [It’s now over seven million.]
Rita possessed a keen sense of observation and rare
ability to accept and respect people for who they were.
She never met a stranger and her infectious humor
touched all with whom she came in contact.

52. Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
Old Time is still a-flying;
And this same flower that smiles today
To-morrow will be dying.
The glorious lamp of heaven, the sun,
The higher he's a-getting,
The sooner will his race be run,
And nearer he's to setting.
That age is best which is the first,
When youth and blood are warmer;
But being spent, the worse, and worst
Times still succeed the former.
Then be not coy, but use your time,
And, while ye may, go marry:
For having lost but once your prime,
You may forever tarry.
