EduCon 2024

To make change part of the culture of our schools, we have to change the way adults work at school. Are we making the best use of faculty meeting time? Are we clear and efficient in our communications? How can we best use the time we have together in the schoolhouse to learn in ways that are engaging and dare we say it, fun? In our team-based approach to innovation, we have reimagined existing roles and carved out time, space, and resources to turn teachers’ ideas into action. We have focused on innovative pedagogies and created opportunities for teachers to engage in personalized professional development.

Flipping faculty meetings, introducing new communication and productivity tools for collaboration, and creating teams where the leadership is distributed, not hierarchical, are all ways of moving the needle towards innovative teaching and learning practices. We will host a conversation for educators to share methods that have been successful, and have a chance to workshop new ideas for supporting and sustaining innovation in our schools.
