During the ideation party, I had several “ah-ha moments.” The first was that I need to come up with a singular solution. My original solution was to have a short PD session (I named “Starting the Change”) on each PD day and do an activity that will better support, encourage, teach, or influence educators for technology usage in the classroom. That being said, I think I will go back to the drawing board, as this will require more than one session and much more planning if I wanted to actually “test” this sort of prototype. The wrong theory thinking also reminded me of what I greatly resent as an educator from those above me. It also reminded me to be sensitive to all levels of innovation that my audience could potentially be at. After the question about the term “connotation,” I also plan to do some research on this topic and think of ways to simultaneously help change this while providing a skill set, as well as peer/PLC support. I think I need to change my thinking to a more narrowed lens for the solution, as I only need one. This does not mean there can’t be ample solutions, but I need to choose a simple and effective solution as of now and worry about bigger things later.

Am I on the right track?
