Don’t miss Heidi’s day-long masterclass on June 4th where she will guide participants on how to map “innovation” directly into K-12 curriculum plans with an eye to designing learning experiences which integrate digital, media, and global literacies. Eric Mazur Physicist and educator Harvard University The award-winning inventor of the teaching method peer instruction, Eric’s thought provoking opening keynote in the K-12 congresses will challenge you to rethink your approach to assessments in teaching and learning. For fans of project based learning, you cannot afford to miss Eric’s masterclass on June 4th where we explore in a group setting how pedagogy and assessment can be adjusted to help students take ownership of their learning. Jennie Magiera Digital Learning Coordinator Academy for Urban School Leadership, Chicago (USA) George Couros Division Principal Innovative Teaching and Learning Parkland School Division (CANADA) Named a White House Champion for Change, Jennie works to redefine education through digital learning and effective technology use. In Jennie’s session in the K-12 Ed Leaders congress, participants will explore the “transformation trap” and examine how closely aligned new devices and pedagogies actually are to the real objective of student growth in schools. George has worked with all levels of school from K-12 as a teacher, technology facilitator, and principal. In his session, George will address some of the pushback that educational leaders go through in moving technology forward in their schools. With many personal stories of how technology can improve learning and relationships, his session will be a great opportunity for participants to encourage those who are reluctant to move forward in their thinking and adopt a growth mindset. Eric Sheninger Senior Fellow International Center for Leadership in Education (ICLE) Dr. Larry Johnson Chief Executive Officer New Media Consortium Shannon Miller Teacher librarian and technology integration specialist Larry is the founder of the Horizon Project, which produces the acclaimed series of Horizon Reports that are diligently used and referenced by well over a million educators in more than 150 countries. Delegates will take a peek into the future as Larry’s keynote defines and explores new ways of thinking about and using technology, and examine emerging trends and issues. Shannon is the author of the award winning The Library Voice blog and is an expert in librarianship, technology and social media. Her keynote in the K-12 Library Managers congress will shine a light on the term “Student Voice” as she explores the various ways we can hand agency back to students. In 2014, Shannon was named a Library Journal Mover & Shaker. Under his leadership as principal at New Milford High School, Eric revolutionized the learning environment and oversaw the successful implementation of sustainable change initiatives that made the school a globally recognised model for innovative practices. For school leaders interested in transitioning to a better school culture, Eric’s masterclass on June 4th will address specific initiatives and programs that can be implemented to improve school culture in ways that better meet the academic, social, and emotional wellbeing of students.
