Educated Visions

Let's Talk About the "How."

I heard about this awesome private school group called "Waldorf."  Check them out at http://www.awsna.org/.  As I read their website, I noticed that they speak to many conceptss of Coaching.  So, I gained information about a school that embraces Coaching concepts.  Now what?!!

Communities of Learning

What would our schools look and feel like today if they were truly communities of learning? Imagine if all the stakeholders in the school community truly identified themselves as learners. All of us, administrators, parents, teachers, board members, and of course our students, acknowledging that what we don’t yet know is a more powerful motivator in our lives than what we claim to know. What would the conversation sound like in our staff meetings and our board meetings? What approach would we take to a phone call with a dissatisfied parent or a child who has been sent to the Principal’s office? How would we present our ideas in our professional associations? How would we respond to the ideas of other?
