Designing Innovative Learning Experiences
Ninja 2.0 builds on the idea that our students need opportunities to gain and demonstrate their learning through innovative learning experiences. Using George Couros’s Eight Characteristics of an Innovator’s Mindset as a foundation, subject-area teachers will build an understanding of how to create transformative projects and lessons. This is not just about teacher innovation, but creating opportunities for students to be innovative.
Ninja 2.0 is about ...
Reflecting on current and past teaching practices
Integrating the 4Cs to provide students with 21st-century skills
Leveling up by pushing projects into modification and redefinition
Taking instructional risks
Building a collaborative network of subject area teachers
