With Annette and Peta at Lyman T Johnson Middle School. Learning Rounds an opportunity to see Kentucky teachers and students in the classroom #COSlead

Collaboration to produce a Theory of action #iroundsnsw at Villawood North PS

Hosting a recent Twitter Chat #COSLead was hectic, confusing, a challenge to my fledgling Twitter skills and a totally brilliant experience! It is a powerful tool for self reflection and articulating purpose. Highly recommended.

Thanks everyone for sharing tonight @COSLead

A6 Ramifications are that as a system we will.need to change the way teachers are trained, attitudes to what the community believes constitutes learning and the view teachers have of themselves #@COSLead

A4 Be flexible to change ready to adapt or reject. Be willing to try new things.. we successgully did science experiments, studied contemporary artists (Ken Done liked our study of his work!), and programmed robots #@COSLead

A5 Plan plan plan and then plan. Expect failure and setbacks. #@COSLead

A4 Authentic use of technology is a tool to facilitate teaching and learning not replace pedagogy. @COSLead

A4 Authentic use of technology is when it becomes the means by which students engage with and express THEIR learning not just reflecting our teaching. @COSLead

A4 e.g. Remote conferencing, voice to text, visionhearing and mobility support @COSLead

A4 This is using technology to facilitate learning opportunities that would not otherwise be accessible @COSLead

A3 teaching students with disability in a support class already has the framework of FF pedagogy. Small numbers, individual programs and ability based progression @cosleader

Q3 yes. Yes it is. I was totally skeptical. We did the research applied the principles and had some great successes.Also some epic fails 😁 @COSlead

@annbasel I agree Mathew.

Yes, I know as we are in the present... what is a better term? #COSLead

A2. Discovery and self discovery. More questions than answers. Authentic and meaningful use of technology Always asking Why? Involvement of multiple stakeholders. Ability based progression. Meaningful feedback. @COSLead

A1 By definition all learning is future focused however in our context it really defines an approach for how we believe we can best prepare our students for an inconceivable future @COSLead

A1. Future focused learning is a title that encompasses and describes a wide range of trending strategies, research and theories for the provision of teaching and learning.
