As part of their recent “10 Big Ideas” Benjamin Herold wrote about “Education has an Innovation Problem” - <a href="https://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2019/01/09/education-has-an-innovation-problem.html" target="_blank">https://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2019/01/09/education-has-an-innovation-problem.html</a>. Lee and I wrote a short essay that accompanied Herold’s piece. And there’s also an infographic that reports on an innovation survey, <a href="https://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2019/01/09/what-educators-really-think-about-innovation-infographic.html" target="_blank">What Educators Really Think About Innovation</a> - on that page there’s also a link to the <a href="https://www.edweek.org/media/innovation-survey-report-education-week.pdf" target="_blank">full survey results</a>. I found the infographic to be a good exercise/conversation starter for a student leadership retreat.<div><br></div><div>Good luck, and please know you’ve got an invitation to report back about what you use and how the course/discussions go.</div><div><br></div><div>Andy</div><div><br><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On Feb 20, 2019, at 12:51 PM, Tom Okie <<a href="mailto:wtokie@gmail.com" target="_blank">wtokie@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="gmail-m_136774367305175051Apple-interchange-newline"><div><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi all, <br></div><div>Apologies if I've missed an earlier discussion of educational technology on this list, but I'm in the process of developing a list of readings/viewings for a course I teach called "Technology for Historians and History Educators," mostly to practicing teachers. I take a broad view of technology in the course (we talk about blackboards and codices as well as digital tech), and we'll be reading Larry Cuban's <i>Oversold and Underused: Computers in the Classroom</i>, and some of Audrey Watters' writing on edtech. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, I'd be eager to hear if anyone has other suggestions for pieces that might teach well, including pieces that praise edtech, promise innovation and disruption, or address maintenance problems in education. <br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Tom Okie</div><div>Kennesaw State University<br> </div></div>
