Week 4 Presentation by Dena Richardson






My presentation is named Techniques for Motivating and Engaging Students. My objective is to allow my audience to explore the various tools available in web 2.0 that will assist them with their instruction.  I can present to educators at the Bermuda Union of Teachers annual conference.  This will allow me to reach a wide range of educators.  The grades will vary from Pre-K to Grade 12.  I think it would be a wonderful opportunity because web 2.0 is very new for us in Bermuda and most people have not heard of it.  This is why I think Techniques for Motivating and Engaging Students would be the workshop to take to allow educators to bring something new and innovative to their personal settings.  My presentation will give them some examples of web 2.0 but the audience will be given time to explore and try tools of their choice.

Wk 4 - The Art of Posibility (Chapters 9-12)

In reading through the final chapters of The Art of Possibility, it was something written in the final pages that seemed to sum up everything for me. The authors wrote "choose the practices that express yourself." This seems to incorporate each aspect of the book, each chapter, and combine it into one simple answer. An answer that many of us probably already know. That we need to chose what works for us.

That simple statement can be true in many different instances. We have to find the theory, the plan, the style that works for us. We cannot do things simply because someone else has done it that way. We can not be held accountable to something that may work for you, because it just might not be what is best for me. In those simple lines, "choose the practices that express yourself," I have been given the freedom to take and use what I can. The author seems to recognize the individuality in each of us. In removing the stress of having to try everything, I have been given the power to know and understand myself.

I agree with your comments Alicia. I also remember reading something at the end of the book about this is not a book of answers it is a book of tools. This may not be the exact words but I think that is why you have had the opportunity to look within yourself. I also think that this book was good to help us make connections to us and reflect on situations. Good Job Alicia.
Dena Richardson said...
I liked how you interpreted these chapters. I agree with you. The board is a tool that is a work in progress. You continually have to work on the board. I also agree with your statement on framework. There are opportunities every day but it depends on whether we want to use them or not. Good job. Reflections on both Mike Mankins and Alicia Welch blog.

Week 4 - Art of Possibilities

A Spark

Passion rather than fear is the igniting force.  Abundance rather than scarcity is the context.  Enrollment is about giving yourself as a posibility to others and being ready in turn, to catch their spark.  These are all powerful statements.  I think the message was : Believe in yourself and go for the park.  Afford yourself the opportunity of possibilities if you have the passion.   Don't fear what might happen.

The word"no" can be daunting but if we look at it differently it may provide another opportunity.  It was mentioned that education is important and we shouldn't just focus on the academic person.  I agree fully with this statement because not everyone is academic but I do believe that everyone has the gift of opportunity.  I also believe that everyone has something to offer if given the opportunity.

Being the Board
It does't make sense to pass the blame because it isn't going to fix things.  It is a difficult task and I think it comes with maturity.  Somethings you may have made a fuss over ten years ago wouldn't be worth your time and energy today because as individuals you would have grown. Fussing, complaining and arguing are not going to solve the problem.

Creating Frameworks
This section reminds me of the book Chrysenthemum  by Kevin Henkes.  Chrysenthemum was teased because she was named after a flower.  Her music teacher was named after a flower as well and when the teacher told the students that she was named after a flower as well their attitude changed.
We need to use the framework of possibilities  to  opportunities and offering a new way of doing or seeing things.

Telling the We Story
This basically tells the story of  "we" not "me".  How can we fix the problem.  What is  best for us.  Not I want or it is all about me.  That does not provide opportunities.  This section suggest that we offer suggestions and work things out.  Often in a disagreement it is about me or I and the tension is still there.  If the situation is approached differently with the "we" approach the outcome would be more positive.

I have really enjoyed these readings.

Week 3 Art of Possibilty Chp 5- 8 by Rosamund Stone Zander & Benjamin Zander

Chapter 5 Leading from any chair
Photo by Nele's



The author has a very profound perspective of leadership. The author says we should look for passion and commitment. The silent conductor the person who leads is one who recognizes the opportunity to lead from where they are. How can we have teachers arrive at this perspective of leadership from any chair? I believe exploring the 21st Century skill collaboration could easily help are students discover and model the silent conductor, wouldn’t this be nice?

Chapter 6 “Rule Number 6”.
I needed this chapter. I love to laugh and tend to do this quite often at work but more with the students that the teachers. As an administrator, I am going to practice taking myself less serious. I have a good relationship with the teachers but believe their perception of me is getter done. I want to enjoy the process more. I like the question, what would have to change for me to be fulfilled? (pg. 87) I know, me? No one else or anything has this power. I am rediscovering my Central Self and scaring the hell out of people around me.

Chapter 7 “The Way Things Are”
Own the reality your in, what I am doing that. No you’re in denial. I once learned a valuable lesson 2 + 2 = 4. I use this mathematical statement like the authors use the way things are. I use to live in the world of “should”, “should of”, and “could of,” what if”. The reality of 2+2=4 means, if you add all of the realities around you up the product is your reality. When you deal with what is real you can then begin to perceive the real options offered in the reality.

Chapter 8 “Giving Way to Passion”
BYTFI (pg.121) yes, I love this book. Sometimes we allow systems to systematically take passion from us. This is so tragic, the lost of passion. Passion is a driving force for creativity and living authentically. When passion is lost we are lost. Two suggestions appear on pg. 114. Discover where you are holding back and participate fully. I want to use these suggestions as it relates to technologies possible impact on learning. Let’s go big or stay home.

Les, I so enjoyed reading your posts. I found it interesting that your thoughts mirrored my own in many respects. For me I tend to get bogged down by the stresses of not setting limits for what I can do. I am the type of person that takes on too much. In doing so, I forget to let others lead, I take myself way to serious at times, I sometimes forget to embrace the idea the way things are is reality and because I am so overwhelmed I often don't participate. Like you I love this book and will be embracing BTFI (pg. 121).
Dena Richardson said...
Les I like your perspective on these chapters. It is a little different from mine but I agree with your view. Especially the part about our passion. I think we allow the system or systems to interfer with our passion. I also love Rule Number 6. I think if we take it on we will have health problems so I believe in rule #6. I love to laugh at well and I surely know how to lighten up. I don't take on unnecessary STUFF.

Wk 3 Response to Reading: The Art of Possiblity


Remember Rule 6
Image downloaded from
Microsoft ClipArt Gallery


As a teacher we are always “leading from a chair”.  I can’t make my students learn, I can’t make them succeed.  My goal is to guide them, engage them, and help them create that inner desire to succeed on their own.  I understand the idea of asking what is wrong with me if they are not succeeding, but I also think that this can take away some of the personal responsibility of the students.  Students need to also participate for the relationship to work.

I love, love, LOVE Remember Rule #6.  I totally live by this!  I vow to never take myself too seriously and try to lighten up the mood with humor whenever possible.  I have found that this helps to ease tense situations…also defusing a situation with humor often times allows both parties to leave with their dignity (save face).  I am also not opposed to their Have the best ______ ever scenario ::wink, wink::

I also found the inner battle between the calculating self and central self very intriguing.  After reading this, it was easy to ascertain which self tries to be dominant in certain situations.  While I usually stay in the central self, there are time where I find my calculating self trying to rear it’s ugly head.

The way things are is such a difficult concept sometimes.  There are times when you just want to vent, cry, scream and not accept the injustice of certain things.  However, in the end, there usually isn’t much you can do to change the situation, only your reaction to that situation.  I try to highlight this with students when we talk about childhoods and the situations in which we were raised.  I was raised in a difficult situation, where I was always in that survival mode with a drug-addicted parent until I entered the 6th grade.  I told my students that I could have held onto this difficult background and let it guide my adult life.  Instead I chose to realize that this was the situation and that I could rise above it…I didn’t let my inability to change my past alter my future.

Heather, I absolutely agree with your post. In particular Rule #6 and "The way things are" concept. I truly admire your ability to not take yourself so seriously. There are times I can do this but for me it is something I have to work at. "The way things are" concept is one that also takes work. And unfortunately one that seems to elude many people. I commend you on knowing that you had the ability to rise above your childhood difficulties and chose to not let them "guide" your adult life. As you may know too many adults use their childhood experiences as justification for their poor choices or inability to take responsibility for their issues. ( Oops! I really do need to work on Rule #6). In any event, your post was great!
Dena Richardson said...
I love your graphic. I agree as teachers we lead and I also agree that you can't make students learn but could that student be the silent conductor and one day the gray sky will turn blue. You may not see it in your class but as the student develops into a young adult you may see where all your hard work went. I also agree on Rule #6. I am like you. I don't take it on. I know how to live it up or just let it go. I also agree with your last paragraph. Good for you. You chose to take another direction and that is what life is all about choices. We have to choose whether we are going to make good or bad choices. Well done Heather.

Week 3 - Think Out Loud


I think I went over and beyond in my introduction therefore this part is a little difficult for me.  I am not quite sure of the expectation but I think I am suppose to say where I will present.  My project will be a presentation and I would like to share the Web 2.0 tools with educators.  My workshop would be called Techniques for Motivating and Engaging Students.  I would like to present to all grade levels as web 2.0 tools are for all grade levels. I would also like to introduce the communication tools such as schoology, blogging, twiducate just to name a few.  I have already done a small presentation for seven educators ranging from grades 1-4 and they have spread the word because they really enjoyed it and found it to be very effective.  This was part of my phase 1 and 2 cbr project.  As I am not in the United States I have chosen a place in Bermuda that I could do this presentation.  The Bermuda Union of Teachers provide professional development for teachers and I could do the professional development at their annual conference or I could do sometime throughout the year.  As educators in Bermuda we have to have some many credit hours of professional development a year in order to keep our teacher license.  So the opportunity will be there for me to do a presentation as a professional development workshop.  It would be really great if administrators and principals could attend.   This would allow them to see how there teachers will benefit from this workshop and they will also benefit.  This could be a stepping stone to change in our thinking or a shift in paradigm.

Week 3 Art of Possibilities




Any Chair
 Leaders sit in all types of chairs.  We have leaders of our country, of our schools, of our communities, and of our organizations, just to name a few.  So the concept of any chair does apply.  As educators our job is to lead our students in the right direction to prosper into life long learners.  Some types of leaders were mentioned in this chapter that stood out and one was the insensitive management type leader.  These types of leaders may take us further down in the reading when we meet the wall.  It also brings to mind the two types of self.  The calculating and the central.  The calculating is the more dominant one and I think that is where the insensitive mangement leader fits in.  I thought the statement, " A leader does not need a podium, she can be sitting quietly.  The leader maybe anyone of us."  I thought that was powerful.  People in higher positions can just supply the tools and allow the work to be done.  It would lmake the work environment a bit more pleasurable to work in.  There are leaders in everyone, it just needs to be brought out of the individual.  
Rule #6
I love this rule.  Lighten up and have a sense of humor, that helps to alleviate the stresses of life.  Enjoy life while you have it because no one is promised tomorrow.   I also agree that it is important to look at yourself in the situation and ask is it me.  It may not be you but at least you have explored the possibilities.  I also got the message that you should take the opportunity to explore your inner self.

The Way
 This concept should have a balance.  I agree that sometimes it is easier to accept things as they are rather than fuss over everything. On the other hand right is right and wrong is wrong, therefore you have to be careful of what you accept.  There were a few statements that I withdrew from the text.  " When we dislike a situation we tend to put all our attention on how things should be rather than how they are."  "A storm sweeps overhead showers and thunder only to be followed by clear patches of blue."  "Nature makes no judgement. Humans do."  These statements are so true.

The Wall
The wall is not a good place to be because communication has shut down.  If you can not communicate, you will not be able to resolve anything.  " The practice of being with the way things are allows us to alight in a place of openness where the truth readies us for the next step and the sky opens up."  I agree with this statement.

Giving Way to Passion
The message I received was get on with things that matter to us.  There were two ways:
1.  Release those barriers of self that keep you separate and in control.
2.    Allow yourself to be a channel to shape the stream of passion into a new expression for the world.

Week 2 - Art of Possibilities







Wow!  I really enjoyed the reading.  I made so many connections, it was great.

It's All Invented


The first paragraph told me a lot.  It's amazing how we can do or look at the same thing but perceive it differently.  That's what makes individuals unique.  I believe there is possibilities in every situation.  It is like students in our class.  We create possibilities for them regardless of their academic ability, race or gender.  How we perceive things makes the difference.  It also reminds me of how Bermudians complain about traveling from one end of the island to the other.  The island is only 21 square miles long.  It takes an hour at the most to drive from one end of the island to other end.  On the other hand we would travel overseas and drive for hours without complaining.  It is was how you perceive the situation.  


Stepping into the Universe- Possibilities


The way we look at possibilities depend on our situation.  In some instances it a can cause people to be selfish because they want to get as much as they can.  On the other hand they may not even see the possibilities awaiting them. 


Giving


This section of the reading really perked my interest.  Verbal or written feedback is more rewarding and meaningful compared to a grade.  I agree with Michaelangelo's statement, "inside every step of stone or marble dwells a beautiful statue; one needs only to remove the excess material to reveal the work of art within."  Everyone has strengths but we just need to find them.  I enjoyed the letters written to Mr. Zander.  They were great!  It is ok  to make mistakes as long as you learn from them.  Grades are invented.  I found that interesting.  I never looked at it that way but I agree with that statement.  That is the same as attaining degrees.  If you can't do your job effectively, your degree is useless.  It just means that you are paper smart and this has been a big issue here.  People can talk the talk and they get away with things.  Reading this chapter had me reflect on many situations in life.  In Bermuda the focus is on young black males.  It seems to be a connection with this chapter.  It was mentioned that people did not feel valued therefore negative things happened. This could be the same situation with some of the black males.  They may not feel valued therefore negative things happen.  This does not only apply to this situation but that is what I connected with immediately.  


Contribution


Society has programmed us therefore it may seem as if you don't know who you really are because you have to live up to others expectations.  They infringe on you and have you questioning yourself.  Even if you have contributed you are still asking, was that ok etc.  I have done that throughout this course if I am uncertain of the expectation.  I think that is a normal reaction because you want to be successful.  To see yourself as a contibutor is much more rewarding and it seems to alleviate some stress. I think I need to pay more attention to trying to make myself and my students think of ourselves as contributors.







The Art of Possibility talks about things that most adults know already but fail to put into action because we are trying to measure up. Measure up to the things mentioned in the first chapter.  We often think that the things we believe that are possible for us will happen only after we have accomplished certain things in life. It could be a job advancement, money, joining any number of organizations, improved education that will make us measure up to whatever standard we have set for our selves.
The chapters also discuss the things we as teachers try to instill in our students. In addition to the academics we try hard to instill in them the importance of character, helping others and not being selfish. These are things that middle school students have to practice to make it something they do without being encouraged to do so.
Every level of growing up that a child does sets a new standard to measure them selves by. Hopefully what they learn as a result of trying to measure up helps them to free themselves to develop natural abilities not measured by peers or any other standards.
 
Dena Richardson said:
I agree with your statements made in the first paragraph. As I stated in my blog, the way we perceive things make a difference. This will refer to the comment about some people don’t feel as if their possibilities are for-filled unless certain things are done. This is how we are conditioned to think. I think that Art of Possibilities mentioned that as well in their writing. They talked about how the brain works.

Wk2 - Reading - It's All Invented

I have really enjoyed reading the first four chapters of this book, and I can undoubtedly say that I have learned more about life from those pages than in any other book I have ever read.

While all of the practices in these first four chapters were eye-opening, my favorite was "it's all invented". What a truly remarkable notion, that life is just a game to be played and that I should create possibility myself and others around me. This hit me hard, and I sat at my desk for awhile after reading it to think about how I could do this in my life to help myself and my family and friends. My first thoughts went to finance, and some budgeting difficulties I had been having that were beginning to affect my marriage. It was a bit difficult because it was my first try seeing it in a new light, but it wasn't too long before I came up with quite a few ways to erase my hardships in this area. After this I turned to some other things that had been bothering me (finding time for hobbies and time to help and visit with family, becoming a better teacher), and I tried my new thinking on them as well. In such a relatively short time, I had created so many new possibilities for all of them. It really works! I thought that I had a good grip on reality before, but it turns out I didn't even know what reality was. I wish I had learned this so much earlier on.

What an eye opening experience. How empowering it most of felt to feel like you had control, or that the ball was back in your court. I also had some similar thought while reading that chapter. I hope that when I need to use it I am able to step back and analyze how to make things look brighter.
Dena Richardson said...
Yes, I have to agree with you, the first four chapters have been great reading. I see that you made connections from the reading and that is great because it allows you not only to digest the material but understand it easier. I made connections as well and I must agree it was a learning experience for me as well.


Week 2 - Think Out Loud

This video presentation is an introduction to various tools that can be used when you are teaching. As educators we are not always aware of what’s available to us.  Up until I started this degree with Full Sail University, I was unaware of the tools that I have experienced throughout my journey in EMDT.  Therefore I decided to do a presentation on Professional Development for educators.  I am more of a behind the scenes worker but I am learning to speak out more.  I think that I can do a presentation as I have already presented for seven of my colleagues.  That was a start.  I thought that it was a great idea to she it with my peers because this will help benefit our society and our communities that we live in if we offer opportunities for growth.  After reading Art of Possibilities , I thought of myself as a contributor.

Week 1- Copyright Laws


The ins and outs about copyright.



Wow copyright.  This can be a very sticky law.  In viewing all three of the copyright assignments, I found it to be repetitive.  I also found it to be confusing in some of them.  What I understood from all of this is that books, plays, films, movies, dance and music can be copyright.  I also understood that there are myths out there about copyright and some people think it is ok to copyright.  I guess they feel they would not be caught.  I am not sure how often people are caught for copyrighting but you don’t seem to hear about it often. 

The Good Copy Bad Copy I found it a little difficult to understand, however I did obtain some information  from it.  I understood that digital technology allows people to copyright.  Piracy won’t be stopped but we have to try to enforce the law. Laws may need to be changed.  Piracy needs something as a deterrent. People know copyright is illegal but people don’t want to take a negative spin on it.  No one is enforcing copyright and we can dwell on the negativity or encourage the creativity.  People use parts of other peoples work to help create their own.  Technology has opened the door for creativity.  I also agree that copyright can be confusing and complicated to understand.  These were some of the statements that stood out to me in Good Copy Bad Copy.

It is important to give credit were credit is due.  This is a part of Fair Use.  Fair Use allows filmmakers the right to use some copyright material.  There are 4 reasons for Fair Use:  Teaching, news reporting, parody and critical comment under the conditions of nature, amount, and commercial effect.  Fair use is about reasoning , logic etc.  You can not claim fair use unless you are called into a court of law. 

Creative Commons is copyright at Internet Speeds.  With the growing use of technology people download music, movies etc.  There are four symbols under creative commons that apply to the use of internet material.  1. Man- give attribution where you got it from. 2. = - others can use the work but it can’t be changed.  3.  $ - non commercial use- you can not use it in a book.  4.  @ You can’t make changes.  Creative commons carries the weight of law.

These are some facts that I understood from the reading about copyright.

Comments on Mike Mankin’s Blog for Week 1.

Week 1 Reading: Copyright Issues, Fair Use, and Creative Commons


Although copyright, to me, seems pretty “cut and dry,” there are still a lot of things that must not be overlooked. The more I think about copyright issues, the more I become angry at the people who use this as a way to simply get richer. Who in their right mind would want to copyright a calendar?

What a clever way to introduce the topic of fair use. I must admit, I was not absolutely sure as to what fair use was before I watched that. But now, it is very clear. Here is the way I translate fair use. If I wish to use a small certain a copyrighted work, for specific things, such education or news, for a certain time period, I will be protected, as long as: it does not change the original work or it’s value. That’s fair enough! Now when it comes to fair use and free speech in documentary films, I am a little lost. I understand, vaguely, the rationale behind documentary films, but when it comes to the regulations pertaining to speech within a documentary film, that’s where I get lost. I will have to do some more digging to find out. So let me summarize fair use this way (help me if I’m wrong). I wish to use something that is copyrighted, then I need to make sure that it is not too large or too long, I need to make sure that I use that in positive manner, and I need to be certain that I give credit to the original creator.

There are several reasons why I like the Creative Commons is the fact that you can share your ideas with the entire world and don’t have to worry about all of the many restrictions built in with copyright. Yes. There are some restrictions with the Creative Commons but they are far friendlier than those that are associated with copyrights. Using these parameters, you are allowed to be creative and share your thoughts and ideas with the world. And, in my opinion, that is the one thing that can break all the fetters that bind creativity. When a person is allowed to express themselves in whatever way they choose for the betterment of society, then why not let them share their ideas with other, as long as they receive the credit they so deserve. When I down load something from creative commons, I am free to use it as long as I: 1) Give credit where credit is due, 2) Use it in a non – commercial manner, 3) Allow others to use the work without changing it, and 4) Share this resources with others in the same manner in which I used it.

In summary, I believe that copyrights are an integral part of the preservation of our culture. There have been many people that have contribute their work to our society and it has caused major change. I believe that those people need to receive the credit they deserve for their contribution. However, in other cases, I believe that people are just being selfish or greedy and want to take advantage of others who are trying to contribute something positive to society. In this instance, I believe the efforts of those working to create something should be recognized and their creations be protected so they can share in the value of what they have contributed to society.

Mike you seem to have a good understanding of copy right. It also seems as if you may have experience someone who has gotten away with copyright. I agree with you on the Fair Use and Creative Commons however the general concept of copyright could be a little fuzzy for me. You did a good job of demonstrating your thoughts and understanding of copyright.

Media Asset Creation - Month 11

This blog was created to showcase the brilliant things that we are doing at Full Sail University in the EMDT Program.  All post for month 11 will appear on this blog.  The  course is Media Asset Creation.
