Video is a powerful tool for communication. Although I didn't create the video linked here, myself and a colleague did dream it up, set up the experience, and had the vision to create the video and are currently utilizing it as a powerful messaging tool to our staff and greater community!

We are utilizing it to demonstrate collaboration, community partnerships, and as a relationship building tool!

The Evolving Educational Landscape

How does a shifting multi-media, technology focused landscape impact teaching? Sheninger explores this topic and more in, The Evolving Educational Landscape. Students and society in general are becoming more active users in technology, so how does or should this impact educational practice? How do educational leaders keep up with these changes? Society (including teachers and students) are engaged with the Internet, how do we utilize this to enhance classroom instruction and student learning rather than shy away from it. The internet can become a leverage for instruction if it's properly embraced. How can school be transformed to capitalize on a digital world?

Educational technology comes in many forms. As a building leader and lead learner, I must model the utilization of technology into practice. We're teaching students that are wired differently and in an effort to fully capture our audience and maximize student learning and achievement we need to shift our approach to instruction. A technological approach will get us there!
