Exciting times ahead in 2024 as I transition to a new role with a greater focus on technology implementation and digital pedagogy coaching. 🚀 Currently diving into "Spacemaker" by Daniel Sih, and these excerpts caught my attention. 🤔 Reflecting on why technology exists, the problems it solves, and potential drawbacks is key. As I embark on this journey, I'm pausing to align our tech initiatives with deep values and school ethos. 📚 "Spacemaker" urges us to ask critical questions: - Why was this technology invented? - What problems does it solve? - What new problems might arise? Excited to approach this role with a thoughtful philosophy of technology, ensuring it aligns with our greater goals and serves our community effectively. Let's make space for intentional and meaningful tech integration! 🌐💡 #TechIntegration #NewBeginnings #EducationLeadership

11moMatt Jensen - so thankful that you're finding the book to be helpful. Congratulations on your new role - we need more people in the DigiTech space who are thinking deeply and intentionally about the wonders and challenges of technology, recognising that it's not a matter of 'good' and 'bad' but rather, that we need a nuanced approach -- to think deeper and intentionally around the tools we use, what problems they are solving, how they will create new problems, and how they will shift our head, heart and habits. Best of luck as you wrestle with these wonderfully important questions in the quest for a healthy, balanced digital pedagogy!
