Changemakers Eric Sheninger and Nicki Slaugh take this episode into a deep dive into the transformative power of leadership in education. As seasoned change-makers, they discuss the critical importance of initiating and sustaining change that leads to real, tangible results in schools.   One of the most compelling parts of the discussion is their exploration of a student-centered approach. In an era where one-size-fits-all education is increasingly outdated, Eric and Nicki advocate for a system that prioritizes individual needs, fosters a culture of trust, and encourages collaboration. They share insights on how leaders can cultivate a culture where empathy and trust become the foundation for a positive school environment.   But the road to change isn't always smooth. Eric and Nicki acknowledge the challenges of getting everyone on board with new initiatives and the tough decisions that sometimes need to be made. Yet, they offer practical advice for navigating these obstacles, stressing the importance of storytelling in showcasing the reality of what happens in schools.   Takeaways: Leaders need to ask the right questions and challenge conventional wisdom to initiate and sustain change in education. Change in education requires courage, risk-taking, and a willingness to challenge the status quo. Empathy and trust are essential elements of effective leadership. Not everyone will be on board with change, but it's important to create conditions that empower the majority. Difficult decisions may need to be made to ensure the best outcomes for students. Educators should tell their own stories and showcase the reality of what happens in schools.     Eric works with schools throughout the world, helping educators meet and exceed their potential to improve outcomes for learners.

Eric Sheninger @E_Sheninger challenges us to move to the next level with digital technologies. We can't use tech because it is "cool and new." It must improve learning. If it doesn't improve learning, why are we spending the money? In today's show, Eric challenges us to think about: The evidence that learning is improving Shifting assessment strategies that help students show what they understand Arguments for student (and teacher) portfolios of learning Why curriculum is no longer a valid argument against technology Encouragement for teachers who feel like an island of innovation with technology.

EdTech NOW is a ten-minute podcast about education technology and how it's used in the classroom. It is hosted by Lee Schneider of Red Cup Agency and Noah Geisel, education director at Stackup. Our guest today is Eric Sheninger, a thought leader in innovative education practices and award-winning principal of New Milford High School. The school became a global model for innovation and achievement in secondary schooling under Eric's leadership. Eric is a Senior Fellow and Thought Leader on Digital Leadership with the International Center for Leadership in Education. Prior to this he was the award-winning Principal at New Milford High School. Under his leadership his school became a globally recognized model for innovative practices. Eric oversaw the successful implementation of several sustainable change initiatives that radically transformed the learning culture at his school while increasing achievement. His work focuses on leading and learning in the digital age as a model for moving schools and districts forward. This has led to the formation of the Pillars of Digital Leadership, a framework for all educators to initiate sustainable change to transform school cultures. Key Takeaways: “As schools change, leadership must change as well.” (at 0:37) Among the seven pillars of digital leadership are communications, PR, and branding. ( at 1:12) Professional development has always been done to us. “We are gravitating toward the term professional learning.”( at 2:47) How do we hold ourselves accountable for effective professional learning? (at 4:25) Our fidelity has to be our loyalty and faithfulness to our students (at 6:08) What advice do you have for those teachers might want to coach up their professional leadership? (at 7:03) Leadership is leadership, with or without technology (at 8:30) Digital gives us a great lens to look at our core practice (at 8:54) The culture of learning must motivate and inspire students while proving the value in what they’re learning ( at 9:30) Jump to any clip by clicking on the timeline.

How closely do you monitor your own mindset? To what degree are you self-aware in regards to your own tendencies to be either fixed or growth mindset in nature? How have you taken action to transform yourself both personally and professionally? In today’s episode, Eric Sheninger, a Senior Fellow at the International Center For Leadership in Education, opens up about the transformation of his own mindset a few years back when he was the principal at New Milford High School in New Jersey. As a result of this transformation, Eric and the great team that he surrounded himself with all played a pivotal part in re-creating the culture of the school by getting all stakeholders to embrace and embed the use of social media and technology as major tools in the learning process. One must wonder and be curious about the steps that Eric took in re-inventing the school and its’ culture. In our conversation, Eric deconstructs the success that he had by identifying specific strategies that he and his team put into action. It is these exact strategies that any educator can apply to their own work if they open themselves up to the possibilities that exist within their day-to-day teaching and leadership. Regardless of your role in education, there is no question you will leave this episode feeling inspired and motivated to be a change maker in your own work space.   Eric’s belief is that gratitude is about ‘paying it forward’. Everything that we do in education is about paying it forward in a way that honors the potential that we have to be genuine difference-makers in the world. When paying it forward, not only do we benefit both personally and professionally, but we also have the ability to change the lives of those who matter most — the students in our schools. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Eric Sheninger.

It's a relatively new phenomenon: educators sharing their successes on social media. For some this is a major breach of the humility many educators feel is required of those in the profession. But a new generation of educators is pushing back on this notion and using PR and marketing strategies to brand their schools and tell their stories. We invited five educators on the leading edge of this issue to talk with uncommon candor about the culture clash between traditional educator values and those of the social media culture.
