What are your three most critical discoveries for this course? How will the learning you have gained serve you in your role as an educational technology leader?
My three most critical discoveries for this course:
1) Communication and collaboration is more crucial than I even realized when it comes to a business. One cannot just simply count on the leaders of the business to take care of it all. There were so many areas regarding decision making that I never realized I should know about as a stakeholder. Our school does an amazing job at keeping us in the loop, but when thinking about other schools, I worry about their communication and how much or little those teachers understand about their school.
2) More goes into choosing a tool for technology than I realized. Collaboration with nearby and distant schools can save your school money and a lot of hassle. Do not forget the mission and vision of your business when choosing these tools.
3) If you want true feedback, and to encourage any use of technology or further growth in general, support as well as continuous communication are crucial. For success of anything new, one must feel comfortable that they are not doing this on their own and be reminded of the many learning curves.
