No notes for slide. Your name please….. Lets see… 5. 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? These are the innovations that succeed, scale and sustain. Educators need to think of innovation as those actions that significantly challenge key assumptions about schools and the way they operate.

Innovation in Education What ideas have you pick up from above Video of Launching Innovation in Schools? Participation Certificate Question? Bringing People together around ideas they care about. Refining a Vision and getting to work. 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.

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. Huge improvements made by charter schools and organizations in traditional outcomes for students, most are not new or different.

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

Effective school leaders need to consciously support innovation and keep a focus on 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.

Before Is it better for students to be involved in innovative practices and participate in highly effective programs? Currently, most schools are not much different than the one our grandparents attended in the s!. Recent Trends in K 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..

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.

Recent Trends in K Education Rip van Winkle has just woken up from his 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. Recent Trends in K Education …. When Rip van Winkle went to a classroom, he recognized immediately that it was a classroom because….. So, What is Innovation in Education? These form the ingly the norm. There is also a clear trend towards basic method for teaching and learning as well as the use of pluralist statistics.

At the same time, the guiding principles of this method. Some 2, classes m so that pupils are interested and motivated. This 28 provinces and cities throughout the country method is more powerful and more concentrated have taken part in the experiment. Its effectiveness is par- ticularly clear in terms of retentior of material Research on educational psychology learned, improvement of creativ thinking, in the teaching of language, scholastic achievement, improvement of self-learn- chiefly focused on teaching character ing aptitude and transference of learning to other recognition and reading ability academic subjects.

The research also deals with pupil typology with The teaching of Chinese characters in primary regard to learning. According to the author, the school is the subject of a long-standing conflict pupils who reap the greatest benefit from 'guided between two teaching methods: the 'decentralized' self-learning' are those who are 'steady rather method and the 'concentrated' method.

According than quick'; the 'quick rather than steady' types to the findings of previous psychological research, get less out of this method.

In the posts, an experiment research. The first stage consisted of the development pattern of mathematics cognition intensive study of the Chinese phonetic system in primary-school children. They draw on Piaget's Hanyu Pinyin. This phonetic system was then theories on the development pattern of thinking used as a tool to get through great volumes of in children, as well as on materialist dialectics.

Rather, it The theory of 'structured-directive education' is is in the most difficult aspects of thinking that the result of ten years of educational experiments these differences are most striking for example, thoroughly exploring the basic areas of teaching, creative thought and numerical analogical reason- learning, aptitude and instinctive moral charac- ing.

At present, experiments in joy education impact on primary and secondary education and have been extended to a number of primary teaching methods.

The first of these trends is emphasis on the har- monious development of the whole personality.

Indeed, to the extent things that they know something as opposed to that we already have knowledge in an area, it is nothing about.
