- 1. The Global Learning Hub 1 Interactive: Teachers and students create their own content (producers vs consumers) and interact with social media to express their identity and creativity. 2 Student-Centered: Shifts the learning responsibility to the student (who owns the learning?) 3 Authentic: Use of social media/technology should be connected to specific learning goals and activities (relevance) 4 Collaborative: Learning is a social activity, and many students learn best through working with a group of peers. (virtual or face to face environment) 5 On-Demand: Course content should be made available “on-demand” (like everything else in today’s world) so students and staff can learn when, where, and how they want from a computer, mobile phone or other handheld devices. 6 Global Competencies/Networking: The world is indeed flat...we must run our schools that way.

- 17. Educational Purgatory- Knowing a Change is Needed but Waiting...and Waiting...and... ‘Risk taking’ is among the qualities found in exemplary leaders identified by Howard Gardner. He writes: ‘The capacity to take risks speaks to a confidence that one will at least sometimes attain success.’ They must also accept the fact that they might fail. This is why heads are possibly reluctant to take risks. They are accountable to so many stakeholders, who do not readily accept failure.
