Games are designed to fail and then try again, etc so building up
Flow Theory and Games?
Flow is widely accepted to be one of the fundamental reasons that people play games. It is the essence of games. For game designers, the question is not whether flow is important, but, rather how long you can keep players in flow.
How long can they keep you in the state of flow??

FLOW CHART FIRST - SO YOU DON'T LOOSE FOCUS
GAMIFICATION IN LEADERSHIP - influencing behaviours
rewards cards
free loaf after so much
new world plants
changing behaviour through gaming
different to playing games - elements that are not the same as game but still getting you to come back
class dojo - online given points for being good -
game layer - under construction
appointment dymanics
influences, open graph, mind share and game dymanics (farmville)
time dynamics -
influence and status

Game Mechanics
What game mechanics micght possibly be useful in leading your initiative
Consider Seth Priebatsch's 4 game cechanics

Design Thinking
Innovative,ll
The transformation of a business-as-usual culture into one focused on innovation and driven by design involves activities decisions and attitudes
Ideas, then refine them once consumer tried it.
Build a prototype then give back and see if it works backwards and forwards between to sets of people
need to understand as think and feel then can satisfy them.
Design thinking it Model
Empathise
Define
Ideate
Prototype
Test
Reflect
LEADERSHIP
DESIGN THINKING IN LEADERSHIP
We think we are done to quickly
the human rule - all design activity ultimately social in nature
The amibiguity rule - design thinkers much preserve etc in class notes
Design Thinking? IDEOs??
Assessment description - plan to emplement a change initiative with your main stakeholders over a period of no longer than 6 months.
Reflect on your leadership from your digital 2 activity and the insights into your leadership you
Lean
human centred, mindful of process bias towards action, radical collaberation, culture or prototyping, show dont tell.
these are your stakeholders -
Innovation Diffusion lifecycle
innovators Early Adopters Early Majority Late Majority Laggards
me target your See if it works
early adopt then I will try it
see your proof first
Only profile on first three sections above mainly the second as I am the innovator
whereas innovators are Cosmopolites, early adopters are localities, This adopter category, more than any other, has the highest degrees of opinion leadership in most systems. Potential adopters look to early adopters for advice and information about an innovation
early adopters dont care just want to try
early majority - want to know it will work first
early adopters like phrase and like to be leaders, then become the peer educators
Identify your main stakeholders. Analyse which ones are relevant for this change initiative.
How do you consciously identify your early adopters: Who do you need to lead (in different skatholder groups) so that others will follow? Mainly focus on the early adopters -

Week 13
Teaching as inquiry
the organised pursuit of curiosity
teaching as inquiry
where teachers inquire into their own practice and use evidence to make decisions about ways to change that practice for the benefit of students
inquiry learning
A process where students co-construct their learning in an authentic context
involve me and I will understand
we want to understand the world around us - ask questions
What will I learn today (a question)
Constructivest - learn ask questions, reflect - not teacher learning
Inquiry - teacher is the faciliator
plan units
develops a question or a topic to explore
designing activities to engage students
open ended questions
research and investigate
present and discuss
reflect
levels of inquiry
structured - teacher directed - question then step by step instructions
guided - students take more responsibility - teacher guides the inquiry for direction
open - students take lead in question and methods - require higher order thinking
Fertile questions
Open
undermining - makes the learner questions their basic assumptions
Rich- cannot be answered without careful and lengthy research, often able to be broken into subsidiary questions
connected relevant to the learners
chargedhas an ethical
practical
Virtual Substitute Teacher:
Introducing the concept of a classroom poxy
helping to replace the problem of the teacher being absent and the relieving teachers often not right subject, not ready, not organised. Technology can help overcome issue of teacher absence. Not replacing the teacher but helping for when human absent for whatever reason.

Scafolding - already have teacher aides assisting the teacher, although a human, could this area be taking over by the BOT
Marking would be great - already started with some programmes

WEEK 12
What is the most innovative learning space you've been in?
spacious, glass sliders, amazing furniture,
elements make a space innovative:
freedom, flexible, colour, comfortable, furniture, clean, non conventional rooming, wide open spaces, vistas,
How much does the space matter
Maker movement: inventor not we are all makers and problem solvers

Agile - Lean education
Cultural of learning in our schools. But we don't have reliable ways of creating this culture. Agile does.
www. agilemanifesto.org core is the four statements -
rewritten for education
Individuals and interactions over processes and tools
meaning learning over measurement of learning
stakeholder collaboration over constant negotiations
responding to change over following a plan
Theory
agile is fundamentally about learning, people, and change, - three things we struggle with in education and handle poorly at the present time.
Agile vs Waterfall
Waterfall approach - can not change from start to finish - can not go back up
Agile work together to proritize the next feature
Cost, scope and schedule - wait longer
-work with the team
As Steve McConnell sys, it's possible for a salmon to go back up a waterfall, but its not easy
muuda - waste
