In honor of International Podcast Day, Jared and Dani kick off season three of UEN Homeroom with a discussion on innovation during COVID. They discuss topics such as: the innovative ways in which Utah teachers are instructing students, what innovation looks like in our current classrooms, and how to help struggling teachers to adapt the "new now" they are facing in schools.
Innovation in Schools shows how innovative leaders leverage technology to develop learning, teaching, and their school environment. It outlines the stages of innovation we see schools go through when they introduce, integrate, then innovate with new technology. The book includes real stories and examples from our Apple Distinguished Schools that demonstrate not only innovative practices, but also what schools can do to grow and evolve the use of technology. Interactive widgets allow readers to explore concepts more deeply. And two downloadable tools—the School Snapshot Tool and the Stages of Innovation Overview—help leadership teams make observations, identify where they are, and consider where they want to go.
