Reminder - read the Human Development Discourse and Academic Development Discourse for Saturday's class, we will divide into two groups to debate these points of view.
Don't forget to bring in one demographic fact (make it one that gets your attention) about the future of our nation or our educational system for class on Saturday too. If we find the people doing the Demographics group have them covered, we will let them educate us to conserve time.
Most of you are out of school now, I went in today at 7:30 AM and managed to make it home, but kinda tired now. I am having to retype a lot of this message.
Our teams from my notes are as follows:
1) Allan, George and Anthony Fullan Good to Great
2) Kris, Tonia and Tomica Spillane Brain Research
3) Bernadine, Sallie and Nicole Bennis Technology
4) Suwana, Alyce and Kathleen Deming Demographics
5) Travis, Kendra and Travis Collins Closing the Gap
6) Nicole, Crystal and Judi Covey Poverty
7) Tarri, Linda and Cathy Elmore Challenges
8) Randall, John and Mike Brock Leadership
I hope I have these right. If I don't it was not because Sallie did not do her best to keep me straight, thank you Sallie. Remember the first four theorists will be presented Saturday PM, all other presentations will be on Sunday.
Looking forward to hearing from you. Ask good, thought provoking interview questions of your subject, unless they can fire you, make them squirm in their seat. Make them think.
All for now. Sam

What thread(s) of connection exists and joins together the work and the theories of Spillane, Block, Fullan, Bennis, Deming, Collins, Covey, and Elmore? Is there only connection the too often overused terms "change," "educational transformation," "transformational leadership," "educational leadership," "transactional leadership," "organizational change," and "community"?
