5. “Traditionally, libraries also suffer from an
image problem. Hordes of books coupled with
the 'sshhhh' factor doesn't make for a very cool
environment. By installing colorful interiors
such as oversized book sleeves, a learning
space such as the library is transformed into an
area which kids see as cool, and therefore are
inspired to read and learn.”

6. Generational change
“…is radical change that occurs in an
organisation or a population as a
result of its members being
replaced over time by other
individuals with different values or
other characteristics.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generational_change

7. Generational change
“…generally presents both a real and a
perceived crisis.
In an organisation, the unspoken cultural
values held by the longer serving members
may be challenged, threatened or
abandoned by newer members. In an
ecological system, generational change of
the representatives of one species may
threaten the survival of other species.”

“The Softbridge will house
a lecture theatre and the
library, taking pressure off
the old, bursting-at-the-
seams facilities. Other
goals are to provide a
better research
environment for students
and to connect
the academic and public
functions of the institute.”

26. iCentre - Form
 information-technology-learning hub
 high-end multimedia production facility
 technology engine of a networked school
 large, flexible learning space based on fluid
design principles
 layout will look different on a daily basis
 technical-admin aspects of technology are
secondary to learning agenda
 information, technology & curriculum staff
are ‘blended’
 convergence allows strategic conversations

27. http://bit.ly/bMwwxv

28. iCentre – Function
 inquiry learning, immersive learning,
explicit instruction
 information fluency transliteracy
 pedagogical fusion – integrating & aligning
information, technology, people, instruction
 customised ‘i’ support for all
 learning innovation & information leadership
 development of independent, informed
digital citizens
 research, EBP & data-driven policy informs
sustainability and continuous improvement

30. iCentre – Brand
 ‘the brand’ can help us re-engineer
what we do
 iCentre brand = a dynamic, responsive,
fluid ‘instructional zone’ within & beyond
the school
 a learning centre of information, inquiry,
innovation, immersion & instructional
intervention
 supports connectivity & collaboration,
critical engagement & creativity,
construction & consolidation

31. iCentre – Brand
 strengthens the home–
school nexus
 pedagogy fuses the work of
information, technology &
learning specialists across
the curriculum
 where key information,
technology & learning
leaders within a school
combine to consolidate
their efforts http://edu.blogs.com/.a/6a00d83451f00f69e20133

Branding starts with goals; all
successful brands are aspirational.
They aspire to be something.
To begin building your brand, you
need to have clearly developed
objectives for what you want
your company [or school] to look
like in the next year, five years,
and ten years.
