ICOT 2013

I was lucky enough to spend the week before starting school in 2013 in Wellington with all of the NPS staff at ICOT.
What a fantastic experience, not only for the conference but also getting to know new staff.
Some of the key ideas that I came away from the conference are:

  • Giving students the Independence to solve, know how and where to go to help solve
  • When you teach, you are modelling, what it means to be an inspiring adult.
  • Live who you really want to be.
  • We need to light a fire with passion not with anger.  We need to ignite, not burn.
  • Independence in students
Very thought provoking week, makes me want to better myself as a teacher, learner, facilitator to be the best that I can be and see my students be the best that they can be.
2013 'live it'!
