Schools in their

are outdated and
obsolete.

In farming there is a
move to organic
farming. We need to
move to organic
schooling.
Politicians are only
passing through, our
schools and
commitment to
leading change is not.

Contradictions,

agile leadership is
about taking these and
using them.

Education in the
Age of Disruptive
Innovation
Disruptive innovation
changes the way we
see things and the way
we do things.
Learning and earning is
from the neck up.
Everything from the neck
down is minimum wage.

When the rate of change
outside the organisation is
faster than the rate of
change inside the
organisation, the end is in
sight.

EduTECH ignite - What we saw and what we took away

Editor's Notes

  • #2 The educational revolution will not be televised, It will be blogged, tweeted, and written collaboratively...in code.
  • #8 We will need to lead our educators to become adaptive experts who as Linda Darling Hammond states know how to continuously expand their expertise, restructuring their knowledge and competencies to meet new challenges.” Future focused leadership is about change leadership
  • #9 We will need to lead our educators to become adaptive experts who as Linda Darling Hammond states know how to continuously expand their expertise, restructuring their knowledge and competencies to meet new challenges.” Future focused leadership is about change leadership
  • #10 We will need to lead our educators to become adaptive experts who as Linda Darling Hammond states know how to continuously expand their expertise, restructuring their knowledge and competencies to meet new challenges.” Future focused leadership is about change leadership
  • #11 The future is not something that is done to us, but an ongoing process in which we can intervene.
  • #12 The future is not something that is done to us, but an ongoing process in which we can intervene.
  • #13 The future is not something that is done to us, but an ongoing process in which we can intervene.
  • #14 The future is not something that is done to us, but an ongoing process in which we can intervene.
  • #15 German economist Ludwig Lachmann there are many sources that can be used to engage in “future-forecasting”. Looking into what the future holds is overwhelming and as it is yet to be realized it is hard to separate the likely from the fanciful. That said, many themes and patterns do appear throughout a range of readings.
  • #16 In the text 21st Century Skills, Bernie Trilling and Charles Fadel look to the recent past to establish predictions for the not too distant future. They, in a sense, establish a timeline: Agrarian Age, Industrial Age and Knowledge Age. Acknowledging that whilst many cultures are still well grounded in the Agrarian and Industrial Age, the most developed are grounded in the Knowledge Age, highlighting also the “complex communication” skills that go along with it. McCain, Jukes and Crockett create a similar timeline in Living on the future Edge, showing the world as moving through Agriculture, Working, Service to Creative in the current day.
  • #17 In Living on the future edge McCain, Jukes and Crockett talk about Moore’s Law which was based on the prediction of Intel founder Gordon E Moore, that computer power, speed and performance would double every year. A prediction of increasing rate of change which remains true nearly 50 years after it was made. We are in the period of hyperchange.
  • #18 One thing we actually do know about the future is that the only constant is change
  • #19 Skills need to be developed that reach across traditional subjects and siloes
  • #20 In knowing that the only constant is change and that what we actually need to do is equip our students (and teachers) for becoming adaptive experts so as to deal with change it would also make sense that the future focused pedagogy is based around learning being:   Inquiry based Problem-based At times self-directed Personalised yet collaborative
  • #21 In knowing that the only constant is change and that what we actually need to do is equip our students (and teachers) for becoming adaptive experts so as to deal with change it would also make sense that the future focused pedagogy is based around learning being:   Inquiry based Problem-based At times self-directed Personalised yet collaborative
