Will and I are excited to announce the inaugural Powerful Learning Practice Visioning Boot Camp for Educational Leaders to be held at the Science Leadership Academy in Philadelphia this summer.
You can get all of the details here, but the bottom line is we’ve put together a three-day event for a limited number (25) of participants that we think will help school principals and superintendents get a deep understanding of how the world is shifting, identify and articulate the challenges that we face, begin some serious conversations about long term change in personal and classroom practice, and create a foundation for long range planning.
We’re really pleased that Chris Lehmann will be our host for the three days and that he will be among a group of forward thinking leaders who will share their experiences and expertise with us. We hope you (or your school leader) will join us!
Hi Cheryl.
Thanks for sharing this! We met briefly at the Midwest Tech Forum last year (I spoke on the panel about literacy and technology) and I've been following your blog since. I am now in Dubai and have founded an ed tech consulting company (Bon Education) to take on projects in the region at the intersection of ed, tech and social media. One of the organizations I am currently working with is Curriki...
I am sure you are familiar with Curriki--an online education community of teachers, students and other education stakeholders committed to using and sharing free, open-source K-12 instructional materials with others around the globe.
This summer, Curriki is sponsoring its annual "Summer of Content" initiative. This is an opportunity for teachers to share their own curricula units online with a Curriki audience of several hundred thousand educators.
Select applicants will receive a stipend for their work and with have their content featured on the homepage of Curriki. To learn more, click here.
I suspect you and/or your colleagues and teacher friends have awesome content to contribute. So, feel free to pass this info along!
Thanks!
Anna
