21st Century Leadership for 21st Century Learners-
In this half day session we looked at addressing vision building, initiative implementation, strategic planning, short term and long goal setting and resource allocation.Outline
Students today require a new set of skills to compete in the global economy, to meet this challenge educational leaders require a new set of competencies and abilities to meet the realities of today’s digital leadership landscape.
Education must also be about our long-term goals, education is about more than just identifying skills and knowledge, and habits of mind beyond being able to do well on a bubble test and beyond being able to do well on a written exam. It is the 21st Century Fluencies that all of our students will need in order to be ready to succeed after they leave our schools.
So what are the 21st Century skills that our school leaders and students will need once they graduate and how do we address both the short and long terms at the same time.
This presentation is about a shift in leadership - educational leadership in the Digital Age. How do we ensure that educational leaders move beyond the traditional assumptions about leadership, decision-making, collaboration, communication, professional development, teaching, learning and assessment?
