Keynote: Leading in the 21st Century, Lynn Ochs

 The following framework was designed by Karl Fisch, Author of the Fischbowl blog.  Feel free to use this framework to capture notes during Lynn's presentation. See Web 2.0: A Leadership Perspective for more information.

Capture Everything:

What's worth capturing in my classrooms? My building? My district? Audio? Video? Text-based assignments? Student work? Writing?

• Capture photos of school events.

Share Everything:

Where can I share it? With whom? What audiences is our organization working to serve? How will they benefit from these shared items? Who needs to see what’s going on?

Open Everything:

What are the closed silos of information in our schools that shouldn't be? What things outside of our schools have we closed (blocked)? What can we do to open both of those up?

Only Connect:

How can I help my students and teachers connect with content, with each other, and with others outside the classroom (students, teachers, experts, mentors, the community, etc.) in a meaningful way?
