Top 10 components to leadership in technology-traction to move forward!
1. Equity of access-we can solve the equity issue in between 8-3:30. Every kid needs the access, not just the students who receive it as a reward. Unacceptable.
2. Understanding and using data- What are our trends? Offer the professional development based on data to make connections to the information and to take ownership in the data. Need to dig into data so we don't make decisions based on superficial data.
3. Effective professional development- plan, but individualize by school, grade level team, or individual teacher.
4. Walk the walk, talk the talk- model, coach,we must be able to do what we expect of others. If we believe in initiatives enough to have expectations for others, then it must be important enough for you to know how to do it too.
5. Vision: collaborative and authentic- what are our priorities? Can use wordle to develop the vision priorities.
6. Reward growth- generate small wins.
7. Genuine reflection - most critical piece of professional development. What is applicable and do-able?
8. Student driven technology -tap our students' talents. Give students techie responsibilities.
9. Pln-personal learning network- Twitter, blogging, etc. Use tweet deck or hoot suite to filter your tweets.
10. Leverage your rockstar teachers, observations, peer mentoring, etc.
