I've already mentioned
this to some of you, but plans are set in stone now for a new type of PD /
Academy at the Curriculum Mapping Institute this summer.

I am excited about the
opportunity to be a live presenter at the 2012 Curriculum Mapping
Institute LEAD 21 Academy on July 10 and 11, 2012 in Saratoga Springs, New
York. I'll be joined by several
colleagues that I'm really looking forward to working with, including Bill Sheskey, Silvia Tolisano, Angela Maiers, Richard Byrne, Adam Bellow, Daniel Newman, and Cathleen Richardson. This 2 day academy
brings together some of the top education bloggers and network leaders in the
United States. These hands on work sessions will guide you in creating a
vision of who a school network leader must be, why the school leader must lead
the network, and how you can design diverse social network connections infused
with knowledge and powered by passion. As a school leader or teacher you will have the opportunity
to design your own personalized social network that will connect your local and
global learning communities.
This
Academy is just the seed for all that will bloom AFTER the Academy is over.
This Academy is creating a true 21st Century "Lifelong Learning"
moment for all participants, leading by engagement, by participation, by
passion, and by leveraging popular social technologies!

Also of note: This is our
third year in Saratoga Springs.
If you've never been there, it's definitely a hidden treasure. In the past
we've enjoyed the warm evenings with collegial conversations at world class
restaurants, Southern Style Porch Socials, Sidewalk Astronomy, Film Screenings,
and more. I look forward to seeing you in July and can't wait to bring this new
form of Professional Development to the Academy!
