Teaching EDU 672 for SUNY Buffalo State. Preparing teachers for the world yet to be imagined.

ID what issues have the impact with the most people, helps to address what needs to be addressed first. #edFutureDigital @21cli @watnunu @shobbsmr

Objectives, not tools. #edFutureDigital @21cli @watnunu @shobbsmr

Coaching those in the survival/mastery stage to move them up will have impact. #edFutureDigital @21cli @feetetweet

Staff still need tool help. Disconnect with digital literacy needs. Time is an issue for Professional Learning and Coaching for teachers to engage. Parents -- may help to push digital literacy engagement by staff. #edFutureDigital @21cli @jmikton

Non-academic/non-classroom PD -- bridging from personal experience may be an approach for making change. Highlight the successes! #edFutureDigital @21cli @jmikton

Informal assessments, formal engagements (1 time a month), walking about, and supporting beyond the classroom. Be there for where people want to go. #edFutureDigital @21cli @jmikton

Building systems to help to make the change. #edFutureDigital @ewanmcintosh @21cli

1. Clear the decks - 2. Know what matters -- Understand what matters to them & not what matters to you. 3. Build Relationships 4. Prototyping Culture 5. Learn how to Create Shared Impact 6. Understand Strategy and their role. #edFutureDigital @ewanmcintosh @21cli

1. Remind and Refine - the long term vision and strategy. 2. Teams work together - Defend vision. 3. Seek/Retain Talent - comes - stays - impact 4. Empower Leading - Beyond the Urgent 5. Engage the Community 6. Be the example #edFutureDigital @ewanmcintosh @21cli

If you can't get 4 people to get on board with your idea, you might want to work on your idea. #edFutureDigital @ewanmcintosh @21cli

What matters is not making big change, but it is making small change in the area that you have influence. #edFutureDigital @ewanmcintosh @21cli
