EP#82 | Align the Science of Research With the Artistry of Classroom Teaching with Jon Corippo

In the digital age, it’s important to teach students how to use technology as a tool in order to learn and not be left behind. When applied in tandem with design thinking, we can start to teach students how to solve problems in a new and innovative way. Jon Corippo co-founded and developed a series of instructional lesson frames called EduProtocols that are designed to engage students in learning through the 4 C's:   1. Critical thinking 2. Collaboration 3. Communication 4. Creativity   EduProtocols were created to address the need for students to engage in deeper learning using technology as a tool instead of an automation device. Since then, hundreds of classrooms have been converted to Four Cs centered instruction.   Jon is the brains behind the extremely popular Eduprotocols. He has been recognised as a County Teacher of the Year, a National School Boards Association 20 to Watch Educator, an Apple Distinguished Educator, a Google Certified Innovator, and a Microsoft Innovative Educator. Jon has a decade of experience in K-8 education, including building a 1-1 project-based high school and serving in two county offices as Assistant Superintendent and IT Director. Jon is very pleased with his work as CUE's Chief Learning Officer and Executive Director. Jon has trained over 60,000 educators through CUE professional learning.   0:00 Introduction 0:51 Introducing Jon Corippo 3:55 Jon's experience travelling around the world as an educator 5:51 The problem with the idea of " real teaching" 12:40 The innovation gap analysis model 15:02 Jon's career as an educator and what changes he implemented over the years 26:35 How Jon's experience as a student motivated him as an educator 29:43 Discussing the relationship between assessment and mental health 35:52 What are some short term changes schools should adopt in assessment? 40:59 Jon's advice for educators who want to transition to a new system   Leading Teams That Work Better Together Workshop: https://designingschools.org/workshops   Connect with Jon Corippo:   Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joncorippo/ Website: https://www.eduprotocols.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/jcorippo   Connect with me, Dr. Sabba Quidwai:   Website: https://designingschools.org/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sabba-quidwai/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/askMsQ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/designing_schools/
