Good Work?

Posted by Atsumori. Category:

What is good work today?

Good work today includes the following steps:
  • Tight focus.  This is our aim.
  • Timely, transparent research and rationale. This is why we are choosing this learning path.
  • Drafts and Proposals: This is the research-based, plan or design.
  • Crowdshare and Face-to-Face Choice and Voice.  What do you think?  What would you choose? Why?
  • Decisions and Direction. Here's where we're heading.  This is what we've decided. 
  • Reflection, Revision and Communication. How's it going? How can we make it better?  Here are some examples.
  • Assessment. Quantifying effect. Creating next steps.
Good work today includes positive relationships too.
  • Time to meet, talk, collaborate. 
  • Optimal teams in numbers, intent, focus. (not too big, not too small)
  • Regular communication.
  • Protocols, norms.
  • Empathy, compassion, care, and respect. 
  • Commitment, investment. 
The complexity in schools is mainly due to numbers--numbers of daily interactions, numbers of daily transitions, numbers of initiatives and goals, numbers of new ideas, and limitless potential.

Thinking about what it takes to do good work as a member of a learning community is daunting as there's always room for improvement and growth.
