Systemic Approach to Technology-Based School Innovation

A recent report published by OECD's Center for Educational Research and Innovation (CERI) is well worth a read:

OECD. (2010). Inspired by Technology, Driven by Pedagogy: A Systemic Approach To Technology-Based School Innovations. A Report by OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation (CERI); Educational Research and Innovation Division. Online: http://www.oecd.org/document/60/0,3343,en_2649_35845581_46156604_1_1_1_1,00.html


My thoughts: 

  1. Systemic innovation: Our Education system must put wireless technology into the hands of every student and classroom teacher
  2. Systemic Innovation: Our Education system must invest in high quality, continuous professional learning for leaders and teachers - we won't be able to stop! 
  3. Systemic Innovation: Our Education system must reduce firewalls/filters between students and teachers and the vast online world of resources
