Today’s goals:

- Build common problem of practice into SIP for 2016-17 that grows an idea based on where your community is and how you can continue to nudge them forward.
From Creativity, Inc.
Key question: What’s actually going on here? Figuring out the heart of the braintrust.
Key question: What does the metaphor mean? How does that translate to the idea of personalized learning?
Homework for May: Draft no more than 1 page about a design idea you are trying to grow OR identify a problem of implementation in your practice for consultation. This can be a build off of the same idea or a new idea.
This time, please provide clickable links that illustrate examples, research, policies that are relevant to your design idea. Take a look at what’s happening outside of the State of CT. We will be repeating the same critical friends/consultancy protocols like we did on March 14th.
