Did you know that 2/3 of children aged 5 to 11 today will land jobs that haven't been invented yet? I recently came across this great TedTalk by Erica Farmer about the digital-first mindset, and I completely agree with this approach. This mindset is not only good for students, but it can also be great for teachers. In the whirlwind of education, teachers tirelessly navigate through a sea of paperwork and time management challenges, dedicating their hearts and souls to nurturing young minds. Yet, this noble pursuit often comes at the cost of their well-being, trapping them in a toxic cycle of stress and burnout. It's time to break this cycle and give back to those who give so much. By leveraging innovative solutions and technology, we can lift the burden off our educators' shoulders, giving them the gift of time. Imagine a world where teachers can focus more on inspiring curiosity and less on administrative tasks—a world where education is not just about managing time but about making every moment count for our future generations. Let's empower our teachers, giving them the tools to thrive and the freedom to inspire. Together, we can redefine the landscape of education, making it a journey of joy and discovery for both teachers and students alike. https://lnkd.in/eeCJXF4V

Wow.  Wow. Wow. The wows multiplied as we listened to the speaker relaying a fascinating story. In the Q&A that followed, someone piped up with “we’ve used up today’s ‘wow’ quota …” It’s true, we might notice when the wows are flowing thick and fast, as generally speaking, we’re not accustomed to sharing our wonder and curiosity so openly. Often, in workplaces especially, the predominant expectation is to know and do, rather than wonder and learn. Wow, of course, is not a finite resource. Our level of wow doesn’t diminish as we use up wows. If anything, when our own wows flow, our collective wow grows. In a more technical description, a group of life-long learners makes for a learning team and organisation. And, learning organisations are the ones who discover, adapt, innovate and grow. Which makes me wonder how we might increase our daily wow quota as we learn and grow together.   #MakingChangeHappen #2024Goals #LearningAndGrowth #SelfLeadership Written by Leanne Gordon - Changing Futures.
