6. General Thoughts

7. The primary aim of education is not to enable students to do well in school, but to help them do well in the lives they lead outside of school.

8. Basic Knowledge/Skills English Language (spoken) Reading Comprehension (in English) Writing in English (grammar, spelling, etc.) Mathematics Science Government/Economics Humanities/Arts Foreign Languages History/Geography Are They Really Ready To Work? Applied Skills Critical Thinking/Problem Solving Oral Communication Written Communication Teamwork/Collaboration Diversity Information Technology Application Leadership Creativity/Innovation Lifelong Learning/Self Direction Professionalism/Work Ethic Ethics/Social Responsibility

9. Weve created false proxies for learning… Finishing a course or textbook has come to mean achievement Listening to lecture has come to mean understanding Getting a high score on a standardized test has come to mean proficiency

10. Learning should have its roots in.. Meaning, not just memory Engagement, not simply transmission Inquiry, not only compliance Exploration, not just acquisition Personalization, not simply uniformity Collaboration, not only competition Trust, not fear

11. Leadership is about action, not position.

12. Educators need to become the agents of change.

13. This is the story about the big public conversation the nation is not having about public education… whether an entire generation of kids will fail to make the grade in the Global Economy because they cant think their way through abstract problems, work in teams, distinguish good information from bad, or speak a language other than English. Time Magazine Dec. 18, 2006

14. A few years ago, we got a wake up call when the 1999 PISA results were published.

83. 21 st Century Skills

84. Agricultural Age… Farmers Industrial Age… Factory Worker Informational Age… Knowledge Worker Conceptual Age… Creator / Empathizer

85. Three reasons for this… Abundance Asia Automation

86. #1 Abundance Malls, Target, PetsMart, Best Buy, Homes, Cars Self Storage Trash …. USA spends more on trash bags than 90 countries spend on everything

87. Abundance has produced an ironic result… Lessened the significance of things because you can get it anywhere. (no longer enough to create a product thats reasonably priced and functional) Products must be more R – Directed beautiful, unique, meaningful, aesthetic imperative

88. Abundance Elevates R – Directed Thinking Electric lighting was rare a century ago… Today it is commonplace and abundant. Yet…. Candles who needs them anymore? $2.4 billion business a year

89. #2 ASIA Knowledge workers new competition.. India, Philippines, China Programmers 70k – 80k are paid what a Taco Bell worker makes Chip designers 7k in USA …..1K in India Aerospace Engineers USA 6K… $650 in Russia Accountant USA 5K… $300 in Philippines

90. #3 Automation Last century machines proved they could replace human backs This century new technologies are proving they can replace human left brains Any job that depends on routines is at risk. Automation is changing even doctors work. Outsource.com

91. Left hemisphere is sequential, logical and analytical. The Left powered the Information Age. Still necessary, but no longer sufficient. Right hemisphere is non linear, intuitive and holistic. The Right qualities of inventiveness, empathy, joyfulness and meaning will power the Conceptual Age.

92. A new age valuing…. High Concept: the capacity to detect patterns / opportunities to create, to be artistic / emotional beauty and to combine seemingly unrelated ideas into something new. High Touch: involves the ability to empathize with others, understand the subtleties of human interaction to find joy and elicit it in others

93. High Concept / High Touch GMs top leader… I see us being in the art business. MBAs becoming the blue collar workers for the conceptual age. Graphic designers have increased ten fold in the last decade. Since 1970, 30% more people are earning a living as writers. More Americans today work in art, entertainment and design than as lawyers, accountants and auditors.

94. The future belongs to a very different kind of mind.. Creators and empathizers Pattern recognizers Meaning makers And more……….

123. It is virtually impossible to make things relevant for, or expect personal excellence from a student you dont know. Carol Ann Tomlinson

124. You cant teach kids you dont know….

128. Achievement Gap Participation Gap

129. Participation Gap Self-Worth: Self-Worth occurs when students know they are valued members of the community; have a person they can trust; believe they can achieve. Active Engagement: Active Engagement happens when students are deeply involved in the learning process. Purpose: Purpose exits when students take responsibility for who and what they want to become.

130. The Aspirations Profile: Understanding our students better

131. Aspirations: the ability to dream and set goals for the future, while being inspired in the present to reach those dreams.

140. Made to Stick by Chip and Dan Heath Made to Stick by Chip and Dan Heath

141. Six Principles Simplicity Unexpectedness Concreteness Credibility Emotions Stories

142. Focus On Simplicity Finding the essential core of our ideas? COMMANDERS INTENT.. No Plan survives contact with the enemy! …Like writing a plan to have your friend play chess for you……. Southwest Airlines Commanders Intent We Are the Low-Fare Airline

143. The Curse of Knowledge It can feel unnatural to speak concretely about a subject matter we know so much about…… Tappers and Listeners

144. Arizonia Commanders Intent Develop and implement school plans to support and enhance 21 st Century Teaching & Learning

145. How do you want learning evaluated?

146. The video of the movie Star Wars earned $193,500,000 in rental fees during its first year. Expressed in scientific notation, the number of dollars earned is: (1)1935 x 10 8 (3) 1.935 x 10 6 (2) 193.5 x 10 6 (4) 1.935 x 10 8

147. (4) 1.935 x 10 8

148. The Learning Criteria helps you put into action what you believe about learning.

149. Evaluation Systems Many of our systems are incomplete because we over measure some things and not measure enough of others.
