Hyperbole or Happening?

Posted on 16:40 by shohan bella
     In a recent NAIS Heads' Listserve exchange, one head of school offered this library of videos.  Most are short and can help instigate discussion for faculty meetings.  Also, the likes of Pink, Dweck, Robinson, Heath, and others can lend perspective to what is presented.


"A Vision of K – 12 Students Today" - 4:08


"Learning to Change – Changing to Learn" - 5:37


"Pay Attention" - 7:42


"Did you Know? 4.0" – 4:46


"Did you know; Shift Happens-Globalization; Information Age" – 6:07


"Shift Happens" – 7:38 (6:11 in actual running time) 6/21/10   similar to above but better graphics, more intrusive music (Both mention job changes . . .)


"It’s Not on the Test"  (Tom Chapin song) - 2:08


Sir Ken Robinson - 19:00 (TED presentation on Creativity, similar to his NAIS presentation)



Sir Ken TED presentation long program about “The Element” (Divided into segments)


"A Vision of Students Today" -  4:35
