Apr 04 2021 MICHAEL E. HILL, PRESIDE CHAUTAUQUA INSTITUTION and KAREN SEGGI, of the FOOD BANK

On this Punk Rock Reflection, Josh shares a letter he recently got from a former student and how even the little things we do as a teacher, the ones we don't ever think about again might be the thing that has an impact on a student. We don't always get to see the fruits of our work but when we do...it can be pretty awesome.

So dig out that pile of letters and messages from former students and remember why you do what you do.

Key Thoughts from Our Interview with Jennie Magiera

Understanding the Diffusion of Innovation Curve and how it applies to people and their adoption of innovation is profound for educational leaders who are transforming classrooms into innovation hubs. Don’t miss our discussion about Crossing the Chasm. 

You have to hear how Jennie shifted her approach as an instructional coach to enable people to see how technology can radically improve student achievement and solve their unique problems as teachers.

Her insight into how educators define and see themselves provides an excellent window into why change can be so difficult.

Listen to how she is “double clicking” on the humanity of change and who she would love to have pizza with.

Her time blocking suggestion is powerful for go-getters who are looking for more space in their day.

You can’t miss why she wants to learn Korean.

She articulates how she accomplishes an enormous amount in a day, yet also knows when enough has been done. 

Don’t miss Jennie’s protractor story and how she describes that technology is a tool, only to be used for the right reasons.

One Thing Series Summary

Jennie’s interview is a powerful blend of technology and human performance. She eloquently describes that a people-first mentality is needed to successfully lead an innovation revolution in our schools. We are grateful that she discussed how she was not always an innovator but sought disruption to improve the student experience.
