  So, I’m tired. In the last 21 days I’ve traveled about 8,000 miles, near as I can figure, and given 11 presentations, four of them on “opening days” in front of a total of about 3,000 teachers in about a half dozen states and provinces. It’s a fun time wh

  But, I’ll say it again, what these condensed travels remind me is just how small the scope of all of this talk continues to be. The vast majority of those who I’ve been in rooms with the last three weeks have little idea of what is happening in the world and have given nary a thought to what this means for teaching and learning.

  Great discussion on the complexities of educational renewal, change agents, and educational reform.

  Interesting how Richardson is pointing out how our educators are unaware of what is going on in the lives of our students and how important it is that we get this message out in order to "enter this discussion of change"

  • For most educators, “back to school” means “back to teaching.” And that can be good work, but it remains obvious to me that very few see it as “back to learning.” For themselves, that is, along with their students. I’m not seeing much change since I wrote this two years ago.

     

    I hate to generalize, but the thing that seems to be missing from most of my conversations with classroom teachers and administrators is a willingness to even try to re-envision their own learning, not just their students.

  @Christian I have to (have to, I say!) disagree with one thing you said - that you weren't hired to be a change agent. I think that's exactly what you were hired to be.

  Thought provoking question on how few teachers getting back to teaching are also getting back to their own learning.
