Nine Things That Will Change

Innovation
 Innovation means first different,
then better.
 It is a fundamentally different
way of doing things with better,
and different outcomes.
 Both the 'different' and the
'better' must be significant and
substantial.

Washor's piece for The
Huffington Post, published in
October, 2009:
… right now many of
the best charters are
just triumphs of
execution rather than
Innovation’’.

Innovation
Therefore, to innovate is to question the 'box' in which we
operate and to innovate without it as well as within.”

When it comes to education,
what does the word Innovation
means to you?

“Innovation in education should be defined as
making it easier for teachers and students to
do the things THEY want to do.
These are the innovations that succeed, scale and sustain.”
– Rob Abel, USA
Innovation in Education

Educators need to think of innovation as those
actions that significantly challenge key
assumptions about schools and the way they
operate.
Innovation in Education

“a process of intentional influence with the ability to
motivate others to gain support to achieve a common goal ”
Good leaders…made or born?
Good leaders are made.
Effective Leader- desire and will
power through a never ending
process of self-study, education,
training, and experience .
(Jago, 1982).
To inspire…., you must:- be, know
and, do.
Leadership

… and its formal
preparation, is the most recent focus in education reform
to improve schools to serve all students well.
 Inter-institutional
collaborations in program
delivery and
 evaluation
drives these new directions
and forms of innovation.

Goal;
to develop, implement and
evaluate inter professional
learning experiences in
simulation-based environments.
How;
align with the institutional and
instructional reforms of
Professional Education for the
21st century.

In recent years, schools have charted new direction in
their graduate leadership preparation programs using
innovative approaches to:
student selection,
content,
instructional strategies
and
 field experiences
to address new
priorities for leadership.

Driving Innovation and Collaboration
-helps your organization
become
- successful in identifying new
ideas, implementing and
integrating them into
operations.
You must engrain this cycle into the DNA of your
organization.

Innovations – commonly thought of as new and game
changing. However many innovations are merely
improvements on something that already exists.
Its important to create a
culture of innovation
within your organization,
- which means,
supporting productive
failure.

Principals, make more visible
their risks, failures and their
learning from failure, to better
model these practices.
“The most essential part of
creativity is not being afraid to
Fall”.
Model your risk taking and your learning from failure.
Mistakes are nothing to be ashamed of for Innovators and
Innovative Organization. Its an expected cost of doing
business.
‘You do enough new things and you’re going to bet wrong,’
says Jeff Bezos.”

Huge improvements made by charter schools and
organizations in traditional outcomes for students,
most are not new or different.
Many of the proposed
improvements in
teacher education &
evaluation, student
assessment, and
school design in
traditional public
schools do not seem
to be novel.

‘We need
solutions that
are both
different and
better.’
Yet the challenges in improving learning and life
outcomes require true Innovation.
As Washor states,

If we redesign schools to get better results on
20th-century outcomes, our students will be poorly
served.

most
inventions
commonplace
today are
results of
thousands of
iterations
based both on
success and
failure.

Blink . . ten years pass by. It’s now 2019 end!.
Complexity is the daily norm, and CHANGE the only constant.
Opportunities, problems and grand challenges abound.
A brand new generation of
institutional leaders is taking the
reins. The world has continued to
shrink and is much smaller.
Technology continued an
unabated, unchecked progression;
what is now futuristic has become
commonplace.

The answer has everything
to do with Education . . . or
how education is adapted
to the realities and
wonderful opportunities of
the not-too-distant future.
QUESTION;
Will this new generation of leaders be innovators,
or followers?..., strong, resilient problem solvers,
or servants of the status quo?

The reason for education
is simple and straight
forward that is:
Education
- process of facilitating learning, transferring
knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and habits to
others, through….. storytelling, discussion,
teaching, training, or research.
- to prepare students,
predominantly young
adults, for future
success.

If core competencies are assumed
(engineers need to engineer,
accountants need to account, writers
need to write and so on…)
QUESTION
1. What do educators need to provide for the next
generation of positive, innovative leaders?
2. What will be the key elements
of an education that might help
students become life-long
learners, successful in multiple
and varied career paths?

Effective school leaders need to consciously
support innovation and keep a focus on ever
changing education landscape as it moves into
the future. The focus is not on improving
existing educational systems but on
changing them altogether.
Its focus is not on doing things
better, but on doing better things;
not on doing things right, but on
doing the right things to prepare
students for a fast changing
interdependent world.

or, Should we play it safe and have them
attend schools that look like the schools we
attended 30 years ago and our parents 60 years
ago and grandparents, 90 years ago?
Is it better for students to be involved in innovative
practices than participate in highly effective
traditional programs?
Currently, most schools are not much
different than the one our grandparents
attended in the 1920s!.

Recent Trends in K-12 Education
Some say that this change has been a
long time coming.
There is an analogy that uses fairy
tale character Rip van Winkle to
describe this;

Near to the town, in a small cottage, lived Rip
Van Winkle, known to all as a harmless,
drinking, shiftless lout, who never would work..,
but roamed about,
always ready with
jest and song-Idling,
tippling all day long.

He was a character in
a Washington Irving
short story who went to
sleep before the
American War of
Independence.
He went to sleep to run away from his nagging
wife, and woke up to find that his wife had
died,...

He woke up twenty years later, after the
war and found himself in an independent
USA.

Rip van Winkle has just woken up from his 100
year slumber and stares in amazement about
how much everything has changed in the time
that he was asleep,
He almost did
not recognize
anything, until he
went into a
classroom.

…. nothing much
has changed in
the K-12
educational system
since he fell asleep
in 1906.
When Rip van Winkle went to a classroom,
he recognized immediately that it was a
classroom because…..

So, What is
Innovation
Leadership in
Education?

Innovation Leadership in Education
A technique that combines different leadership styles to
influence to produce creative ideas, innovative products
and services.
In recent years, schools have
charted new approaches in leading
Innovation by transforming :
Yourself, your Students and your
School to cultivate the habits and
mindsets of innovators, to open
the floodgates of creativity and
generate ideas that you can take
with confidence.
Dr. David Gliddon (2006) developed the competency model of innovation leaders and
established the concept of innovation leadership at Penn State University.

As an approach to
organization development,
innovation leadership can
be used to support the
achievement of the mission
or vision of an organization
or school.
Innovation Leadership
In an ever changing world with new technologies and
processes, it is becoming necessary to think innovatively in
order to ensure their continued success and stay competitive.

To be the center of excellence,
renown internationally for
Innovative Educational
Leadership leading CHANGE,
implementing latest trends in
21st Century Professional
Education for Students.

Once affirmed, it needs to be
able to be articulated by all.
- when this is achieved, all can
then align their efforts behind
the vision and through self-
reference and development the
school will reach.
This is translated into reality by
means of a Teaching
Framework or belief system.
This is shared & derived through a visioning process
involving all members of the school.

What makes some individuals, and organizations
they lead, more innovative than others?
They ask provocative
questions that
challenge the status
quo.
They observe the
world like
anthropologists to
detect new ways of
doing things.

Three key elements that consistently drive
innovation in Leadership (what we call the 3Ps)
are;
People,
Processes, and
Philosophies
Innovative School leadership
that makes some individuals, and the people they
lead, more innovative than others.

Entrepreneurs, inventors, and other innovators
around the world created and sustained high-
performing cultures of innovation by;
building their;
 people,
 processes and
 philosophies
around five fundamental
“discovery skills”- Five
Core Skills of Innovators

Five Core Skills of Innovators

“Nearly two-thirds (63 percent)
of school administrators who
responded to a recent survey
said 1:1 computing classrooms
where teachers act as a coach
for students are the future of
education.” (T.H.E Journal)
Heidi Hayes Jacobs:
”If you’re not updating your curriculum,
you are saying that nothing is changing.”

“Innovative teaching supports students’ development
of the skills that will help them thrive in future life and
work.” (IT Research)

Current problems and circumstances are so complex,
they don’t ﬁt previous patterns now.
We don’t
recognize the
situation and
can’t
automatically
know what to
do.

We examine and analyze
the situation, looking for
logic.
Unfortunately, this
analysis and rational
decision-making has
serious limitations.
The pressure to adapt is the need to innovate.
But how? When faced with confusion or a problem,
our instinct is to repair it with order.

Consider the 5C's.

Innovation Leadership: Change How You Interact
Here’s an
innovation
leadership
checklist to
make it easier!
 Requires a new way of thinking.
 Leadership and commitment at all
levels.
 Training in current 21st Century Skills
& methods.
 Incorporating 21st Century skills in the
Classroom.
 Upgrade your Lessons to 21st Century
Skill & Literacy
 Implementation of 21st Century in
Resource Management
 Just do it! - Need to do more than talk.

1. Elevate your self-confidence and park your
ego.
Trust that your position as leader is strengthened
when you exhibit innovation leadership — the
welcoming of ideas.
If you are insecure
when others’ talents
shine, you will
squash the spirit of
innovation.
Innovation Checklist

The biggest mistake in innovation leadership,
is lack of empowerment.
Leaders delegate and think that will engage
employees.
It won’t. Delegation is
not empowerment.
Delegation
communicates, stay in
line.

2. Empower! . Don’t delegate
To get people to complain less and innovate
more, share power. People complain when they
feel helpless to change things.
Delegation tells them that
you are still in power.
Empowerment gives them
a true voice and
accountability for results.

3. Educate them on the true organization picture.
Un-empowered people see and verbalize what
they are feeling. Share the bigger picture.
Example: a technical
support dept. in a
School system had
uninspired staffs who
complained about
the work load, the
students’ attitudes,
and the stress.

The leader began rotating the tech support staffs out into the
school and classes to see the impact that broken technology
has on students. This transformed the staffs’ attitudes and
actions on;
leading change,
 staff engagement,
teamwork, and
 delivering the ultimate customer
service.
It turns interaction obstacles into
interpersonal success.

4. Make it safe to innovate.
Are you a harsh realist that slams ideas that seem
odd? If you want people to suggest ideas, welcome
the ideas.
It doesn’t mean
each idea will
work.
It doesn’t mean
each idea will be
implemented.

4. Make it safe to innovate.
Encourage ideas and applaud the courage the
employees show in suggestions.
True innovators know
that innovation is not
pretty at the start.

5. Check your beliefs.
One leadership team realized that they believed employees had
to earn the right to innovate and make suggestions.
They reached out only to top performers, not to
everyone.
As we worked
through their beliefs,
they realized that
employee
engagement is not
an award you give
to top performers.

Employee engagement and empowerment are
how you foster top performance.
It’s how you get less
complaints and more
actionable ideas.
Empower and engage!

Imagine an 'Education Nation,' a learning society
where the education of children and adults is the
highest national priority, on par with a strong
economy, high employment, and national security,
-where learners also take
advantage of informal
experiences offered
through museums,
libraries, churches, youth
groups, and parks as well
as via the media.

Latest Trends in leading Innovation in K-12
Education
Thankfully, educators are starting to change with
the times.
The trend in K-12
education these days is
that learning institutions
should try their best to
keep up with the recent
advances in technology to
better teach their students.

The computer and the internet's evolution these
past few years have been staggeringly fast..
A computer that
used to fill an entire
building in 1965 has
about the same
computing power as
a modern-day smart
phone.

Most of the popular forms of media like TV, radio,
and print are slowly being nudged from their
pedestal by the internet.
Everything seems to
have changed
drastically these
years, and this
includes the K-12
education system.

Question on Innovation Leadership

As technology is rapidly changing the world
around us, many people worry that
technology will replace human intelligence.
Some educators worry that
there will be no students to
teach anymore in the near
future as technology might
take over a lot of tasks and
abilities that we have been
teaching our students for
decades.

Here are 9 things that will shape the future
of education during the next 20 years.
The thing is: Education will never disappear. It will
just take up different forms.
1. Diverse time and place.
2. Personalized learning.
3. Free choice.
4. Project based.
5. Field experience.
6. Data interpretation.
7. Exams will change completely.
8. Student ownership.
9. Mentoring will become more
important.

Students will have more opportunities to learn
at different times in different places.
eLearning tools facilitate opportunities for
remote, self-paced learning.
1.Diverse time and place.
Classrooms will be flipped,
which means the
theoretical part is learned
outside the classroom,
whereas the practical part
shall be taught face to face,
interactively.

Students will learn with study tools that adapt to
the capabilities of a student.
This means above
average students shall
be challenged with
harder tasks and
questions when a
certain level is
achieved.

This can result in to positive learning experiences
and will diminish the amount of students losing
confidence about their academic abilities.
Furthermore, teachers
will be able to see clearly
which students need
help in which areas.

Students who experience difficulties with a subject
will get the opportunity to practice more until they
reach the required level.
Students will be
positively reinforced
during their individual
learning processes.

3.Free choice.
Though every subject that is taught aims for the
same destination, the road leading towards that
destination can vary per student.
Similarly to the
personalized learning
experience, students will
be able to modify their
learning process with
tools they feel are
necessary for them.

3.Free choice.
Students will learn with different devices, different
programs and techniques based on their own
preference.
Blended learning,
flipped classrooms
and BYOD (Bring Your
Own Device) form
important terminology
within this change.

4. Project based.
As careers are adapting to the future freelance
economy, students of today will adapt to project
based learning and working.
This means they
have to learn how
to apply their skills
in shorter terms to a
variety of situations.

4. Project based.
Students should already get acquainted with
project based learning in high school.
This is when
organizational,
collaborative, and time
management skills can
be taught as basics
that every student can
use in their further
academic careers.

Projects can show students how diverse disciplines as
English, Science and Math are interrelated - can be
developed to accommodate almost any curriculum.
For example,
A science teacher builds an
Electrolyzer with the students to
demonstrate Electrolysis of water to
its gases form. They learned all the
skills of the built they were engaged
in the process.
They enjoyed the build of the project and gained confidence in
their abilities.
PBL: Leading Innovation in Schools

Application of PBL leading Innovation in
everyday life going Green.
PBL: Leading Innovation in Schools

Because technology can facilitate more efficiency
in certain domains, curricula will make room for
skills that solely require human knowledge and
face-to-face interaction. Thus,
experience in
‘the field’ will be
emphasized
within courses.

Schools will provide more opportunities for students
to obtain real-world skills that are representative to
their jobs.
This means curricula will
create more room for
students to fulfill
internships, mentoring
projects and
collaboration projects
(e.g.).

Computers will soon take care of every statistical
analysis, and describe and analyze data and
predict future trends.
Therefore, the human
interpretation of these
data will become a
much more important
part of the future
curricula.

Though mathematics is considered one of three
literacy, it is without a
doubt that the
manual part of
this literacy will
become
irrelevant in the
near future.

Applying the theoretical
knowledge to numbers,
and using human
reasoning to infer logic
and trends from these
data will be the norm.
Data interpretation will become a fundamental new
aspect of this literacy.

As courseware platforms will assess students
capabilities at each step, measuring their
competencies through Q&A might become irrelevant,
or might not suffice.
Many argue that exams
are now designed in
such a way, that
students cram their
materials, and forget the
next day.

Educators worry that exams might not validly
measure what students should be capable of when
they enter their first job.
As the factual
knowledge of a student
can be measured during
their learning process,
the application of their
knowledge is best tested
when they work on
projects in the field.

Students will become more and more involved in
forming their curricula.
Maintaining a curriculum
that is contemporary, up-
to-date and useful is only
realistic when
professionals as well as
‘youngsters’ are involved.

Critical input
from students
on the content
and durability of
their courses is
a must for an
all-embracing
study program.

9. Mentoring will become more important.
In 20 years, students will incorporate so much
independence into their learning process,
that mentoring
will become
fundamental to
student success.

9. Mentoring will become more important.
Though the future of
education seems
remote, the teacher
and educational
institution are vital to
academic
performance.
Teachers will form a central point in the jungle of
information that our students will be paving their
way through performance.
