If you could speak openly and honestly to a principal or

superintendent, what would you say? What

would you tell him or her about technology, classrooms, and change?


Hopefully, you have multiple opportunities to do this in an

ongoing professional dialogue about what is best for students. This is one of those opportunities.  What

can I learn from you about how to make a difference in my school regarding

these issues? What can I pass on to my

colleagues in my district and around the country? Someday when I am a superintendent, what can

I do to make a difference in a dozen schools?

There are many criticisms out there about public school

administrators, and many of them are fair, but we also need people to come

forward with ideas and solutions. The

comment on yesterday’s post by Scott Floyd is a great place to start. I’d like to hear from others. Please contribute.
