My fellow citizens, today we celebrate the mystery of American renewal. This ceremony is held in the depth of winter, but by the words we speak and the faces we show the world, we force the spring. -William Jefferson Clinton First Inaugural AMONG the vicissitudes incident to life no event could have filled me with greater anxieties than that of which the notification was transmitted by your order, and received on the 14th day of the present month. On the one hand, I was summoned by my country, whose voice I can never hear but with veneration and love, from a retreat which I had chosen with the fondest predilection, and, in my flattering hopes, with an immutable decision, as the asylum of my declining years—a retreat which was rendered every day more necessary as well as more dear to me by the addition of habit to inclination, and of frequent interruptions in my health to the gradual waste committed on it by time. -George Washington’s First Inaugural

Changing Students

Andy Warhol, Liberace, Jackie Gleason, and Lee Marvin have always been dead. They don't remember when "cut and paste" involved scissors. Wayne Gretzky never played for Edmonton. Boston has been working on "The Big Dig" all their lives. Pay-Per-View television has always been an option. They never had the fun of being thrown into the back of a station wagon with six others. Voice mail has always been available. "Whatever" is not part of a question but an expression of sullen rebuke. For daily caffeine emergencies, Starbucks has always been around the corner. Bill Gates has always been worth at least a billion dollars. Aretha Franklin has always been in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Snowboarding has always been a popular winter pastime. The Hubble Telescope has always been focused on new frontiers. They never saw Pat Sajak or Arsenio Hall host a late night television show. Digital cameras have always existed. They never saw a Howard Johnson's with 28 ice cream flavors.

50
Refocus our priorities Our decision filter: Kids Learning Technology
51
Planning Planning is a chance to step back and take stock of where you are and what is possible in the future.
52
Planning Consensual “reality” can get in the way. Before an idea can come to fruition people in the system often kill it.
53
Planning It’s all about “beliefs” and “beliefs” are opinions.
54
Planning If something is worth doing, then do it. “Yes!” first, “How” later
55
Planning The plan serves as a map to get us where we want to go.
56
Planning Planning is a tool to educate, garner support, and inspire change. It’s an opportunity to tell create a new narrative about education and technology.
57
Planning Great leaders help us achieve what we thought was impossible. MLK didn’t say, “I have a strategic plan!” He had a dream. He also knew it was not an easy road. He didn’t have all the “How’s”
58
Planning Some say, “I’ll believe it when I see it.”
59
Planning But the truth is, “You will see it when you believe it.”
