Rachelle Wooten's insight:
If there is one area where we could really use some creativity is in the area of PD! I could really appreciate this quote, "Spurts of time riddled with interruptions aren’t conducive to creativity because each time our focus is wrecked, we struggle to get back to the point we’d reached in our creative “flow”." Time is always an issue but it's so necessary to creativity.

This is a must read for everybody who needs to be creative - that is everybody. Some tips include carving out time, making this non-negotiable, and recognizing that you have to work yourself into your creative zone are only some of the things discussed. Plus you get to watch a video on the topic from John Cleese - come one, JOHN CLEESE! Great read!! Delete the scoop?

Instructional coaches seem to be a new phenomenon in schools. Their job is to help educators become better teachers. They observe teachers teaching, go over instructional data, and model good teaching practices. As much as this may be new for schools, the core of instructional coaching has been around for a long time. Via Gust MEES

This post is part of the HBR Insight Center Making Collaboration Work. Teamwork and collaboration are critical to mission achievement in any organization that has to respond quickly to changing circumstances. Via Karen Rockhold, Mary Perfitt-Nelson
Rachelle Wooten's insight:
My favorite quote: "Conflict, when well managed and focused on a team's objectives, can generate more creative solutions than one sees in conflict-free groups." All too often conflict is avoided maybe because it is poorly managed but if it's focused on team's goal or mission can be most beneficial.

Teamwork is a frustrating as it is rewarding. Here are a few insights about how to make the most out of collaboration. 
donhornsby's curator insight,
February 14, 8:26 AM
(From the article):The hands-on activities of group leaders do make a difference. But the most powerful thing a leader can do to foster effective collaboration is to create conditions that help members competently manage themselves. The second most powerful thing is to launch the team well. And then, third, is the hands-on teaching and coaching that leaders do after the work is underway. Our research suggests that condition-creating accounts for about 60% of the variation in how well a team eventually performs; that the quality of the team launch accounts for another 30%; and that real-time coaching accounts for only about 10%. Leaders are indeed important in collaborative work, but not in the ways we usually think. Delete the scoop?

So you are coming across too many tech terms that it becomes hard for you to draw clear boundaries between what each of them refer to. Well we do share with you this confusion and that is why we deem it important to put forward a list of the major and most popular educational concepts that are technology-related.
The list below is a simple attempt to help you better capture the full picture of what all these tech terms are about by providing clear definitions to each one of them.
Via Gust MEES
Rachelle Wooten's insight:
Some of these are unfamiliar to me as an Ed Tech Specialist. I will do some investigating but "Know" (lowest level of Bloom's) may be the best we can expect from some of our classroom teachers. They may, however, become experts on one or two of these concepts. Whatever they choose.
