No Quick Fix

Will Richardson, Weblogg-ed, Oct 04, 2011

This one made me actually want to call out, "Right!" Here's Will Richardson: "It’s always interesting to me how many people in education, once they start waking up to the big shifts that are afoot, immediately jump to the 'ok, so how do we change our schools?' question without addressing the 'How do we change ourselves?' question first. It’s as if they’re looking to buy the off-the-shelf 'EduChange' software program and install it on top of their current school operating system." I advise people: change you you learn first. Once you change, you won't be able to go back to teaching the same old way.
