This document discusses complexity and the practice of school psychology. It addresses two key questions people try to answer: purpose and systems. School psychology aims to understand different perspectives and influences on behavior. Frameworks like Cynefin help evaluate programs and policies using both traditional and complexity-informed methods. The document advocates collaborative dialogue over technical solutions and experimenting with promising ideas to continuously learn and adapt. Overall, it presents complexity theory as a "new lens" for approaching change work in school psychology.

Open Space Session notes: Mapping the Systems of Science and TechnologyKennan Salinero
'Mapping the Systems of Science and Technology: Assessing Tools for Teamwork' represents the next stage in convening critical conversations for the future of science via Yámana Science and Technology's Science 'UnSummit' working conferences. The first were held during the USA Science and Engineering Festival - in 2010 looking at the topic of 'Shifting the Effort/Reward Ratio in Science' and in 2012 'Innovation - a Global Conversation.' We explore current data, successful initiatives and emergent trends from various science and technology oriented domains, in a cross-functional/cross-sector setting. We utilize Open Space sessions, where participants convene discussions around topic areas of greatest interest and urgency to them.

Let's Talk About It: Ovarian Cancer - Leaving a Legacybkling
A legacy is not just what you leave behind. It is also the connections you make and the ways you live that create a lasting impact on your relationships and the world around you. Sometimes people are planting the seeds of their long-lasting legacy without even knowing it. Other times it is taking a moment to step back and consider what is important to you and the values that guide your day-to-day; this can be an important exercise. Join us on Wednesday, May 10th as we share our thoughts and experiences, and discuss this topic together.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

1. COMPLEXITY & THE PRACTICE
OF SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY
BRUCE WALTUCK, M.A., C, C, & C, RHB
Revised May 2018
2. THE 2 QS
•What two questions are every person trying to
answer at every moment of their lives?
3. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF
SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY?
•How did you reach this
understanding?
•Do others agree with your
understanding?
•What explains the differences in
responses?
4. WHAT ARE THE SYSTEMS YOU INTERACT
WITH, OR THAT YOU ARE AWARE OF,
THAT OTHERS ARE INTERACTING WITH?
18. LIBERATING STRUCTURES
TRANSFORM COLLABORATION
• Easy to learn
• Enhance relational coordination and
trust
• Foster lively participation
• Include and unleash everyone
• Individual brilliance and collective
wisdom
• Simple design criteria
• Free to learn and use
• www.liberatingstructures.com
Unwittingly, the conventional
structures used to organize how
people routinely work together stifle
inclusion and engagement.
19. CARL ROGERS GOT IT (FROM “THE
ART OF FACILITATION” BY DALE
HUNTER)
• Free of desire to impose ready-made
truths or control outcomes
• Respectful hearing of all attitudes and
feelings
• Members of a group free to choose
collectively and individually, their own
processes, and work towards their own
goals
20. SEYMOUR GOT IT TOO!
• “We are imperfect people in an
imperfect world.” (pg 361)
• “We expect there will be discernible
variation.” (in the results of schooling)
• [our classrooms are] “far from being
chaotic” [respecting where and what
students are] (pg 364)
• “Power transfers to students and
teachers.” (pg 369)
• “If we started over, would we design the
same thing?” (pg 367)
• “CHANGE THE ASKER-ANSWERER
RELATIONSHIP” (pg 367)
• “TEACHERS, PARENTS, AND
ADMINISTRATORS COOPERATIVELY
PLANNED AND IMPLEMENTED
ACTION FOR CHANGE.” (PG 368)
21. SEYMOUR REALLY GOT IT!
Sarason notes how he was influenced by his
studies with anthropologist Tom Gladwin. . .
“WHO TAUGHT ME A GREAT DEAL ABOUT
CULTURE AND THE COMPLEXITIES
ENGENDERED BY TRYING TO CHANGE IT.” . .
. Footnote pg. 374
22. AND SO. . .
• We must approach the work of
change through the “new lens” of
complexity
• Work with others in collaborative
dialogue
• STOP the “AS IF…” thinking and
behavior. Do not treat truly complex
situations as if they were
technical/complicated
• Recognize there is no “single best”
solution
• Recognize no expert has a solution
• Try multiple “safe to fail” experiments of
promising ideas, and
learn/adapt/improve continuously
23. THANK YOU!
