Leading and Managing Educational Technology EDUC 7103

Hi everyone, Please excuse last quarters discussion section, I didn't know how a wiki worked, so I posted things on my first page. I don't really want to erase the information yet, just in case we might need it for our portfolio. ​

​​ Hi all. Welcome to our collaborative assignment wikispace. I have attached a file to my page, so everyone can access my innovation document. I decided to use digital storytelling as my innovation. I cannot wait to read everyones.

Here is my storyboard. I hope it opens.

1-7-10 Here is the Innovation-decision process update for my digital storytelling project.

1-14-10 Here is the third update on my digital storytelling project. The third page on my storyboard is the S-Curve assignment.

Great Job Krista, I'm a bit behind on my story board. I just uploaded my daughter's video, trying to experiment on how to edit. It looks like you are taking clips, already done, and making a video that way?

1/21/2010 Hi there. Here is the updated storyboard for week 7. I still don't know how to create a powerpoint or video presentation for this topic. I hope to figure it out soon. I hope that it is easy to understand. Have a great Friday. :)

Duane here is my powerpoint storyboard. I hope its not too boring. To answer the questions, I believe that both a centralized and decentrailized approach would work best for the adoption of digital storytelling. Training a group of teachers with high credentials at my school to create digital stories, and then have them implement them into their classrooms would provide a resource base for other teachers to learn from. As a decentralized approach, these teachers can teach others in the system on how to use digital stories within all content areas. The initial group of teachers can receive staff development credit for teaching other teachers how to use digital storytelling in the classroom. Therefore, we can promote digital storytelling through out the district. I will recommend several highly merited teachers from a variety of grade levels to be the change agents in this product. Once these agents implement digital storytelling lessons within their curriculum, they will be master technology teachers at the local level. Next year, these master tech teachers will teach lessons on integrating digital storytelling lessons to a specialized group of teachers from each school.
 * Do you believe a centralized or decentralized approach would work best for the adoption of the innovation you are proposing to the Board of Directors?
 * Who will you recommend as key change agents in your organization, and how can the seven roles of a change agent be used in your organization to effect positive social change?
 * Has the innovation you are proposing to the Board already met critical mass in society? If it has not met critical mass, which of the four strategies for achieving critical mass do you recommend to the Board for your innovation?

The tools to create digital stories has met and surpassed critical mass within society. However, the integration of digital storytelling within the classroom has not. Reciprocal strategies will be use to make sure this will meet critical mass. As teachers teach other teachers and share ideas, critical mass can be obtained quicker.
