Go deeper with innovation: #InnovatorsMindset MOOC

2/18/2017

George Couros, author of The Innovator's Mindset, is one of my inspirations in the world of educational philosophy. I was recently thrilled to discover that Couros has offered yet another way to engage educators in a discussion about the concepts presented in his book--the #InnovatorsMindset MOOC (or #IMMOOC for short.) 

Built around a series of YouTube live presentations and Twitter conversations, this five-week opportunity to further explore ways to create a "culture of innovation in education" looks to offer fantastic professional development and connections with educators from all over. As icing on that cake, participants will be urged to blog as a way to reflect and share their ideas. Kuddos to Couros for offering such a unique opportunity for meaningful online learning!

I can't wait to participate--and I hope you will too! Check it out at http://georgecouros.ca/blog/archives/7070.

Enlightening to read these two blogs together. What I liked best was your own ability to learn, which went beyond criticism from an unexpected source. Pretty cool to be your own best example!
