Stories of innovation

[Shawn Callahan]

As part of the Innovation Showcase we are planning to share a range of specific stories of how educators have created, adapted, or borrowed ideas, implemented them at their school and seen a significant impact as a result.

For example, check out this story by Anne Mirtschin where she explains how she used twitter to create a bevy of teachable moments.

Your stories could be small innovations or momentous changes. It doesn't matter as long as we get to hear what happened. How did it all come about? What changed?

We would like to collect as many stories as we can before the Showcase, so please add your experiences in this discussion forum of how you or your school has innovated.
