Bluewater Administrative Retreat

Canadian Flag over Georgian BayI am sitting in the Blue Mountain Resort, overlooking Nottawasaga Bay about two hours north of Toronto. It is a beautiful, if confusing place. Today I’ll be working with administrators from the schools and systems that comprise the Bluewater District School Board. The workshop is called Teaching & Learning on the Edge of Change. We’ll be exploring how the world is changing, especially how the information landscape has changed, how our children have changed, and what it all means in terms of how and what we teach. We’ll also be exploring some new stories that are emerging out of this time of rapid change, stories that we can use to help us retool teaching and learning.

The online wiki handouts for The Edge of Change can be found here.

The second day of the retreat will be devoted to the new Web 2.0 applications and their potential impact on education.
