Marybeth Hertz was kind enough to UStream Chris Lehmann's Endnote speech at ISTE yesterday. As always, Chris was incredibly empowering. He left me ready for September!
However, he used one technique that really resonated with me. First, he asked us to think of our BEST IDEA for our school. Then, he asked us to think of the WORST things that could result from that idea.
To sum it up, we examined the worst consequences of the best innovations.
I think that's a helpful framework for transforming our schools. Identify our best solutions and then prepare to implement them in the most thoughtful way possible. Confront the challenges that face us, and make positive changes for students.
