A CALL TO ACTION
The best way to create a solid innovation plan is to learn from what others have done. This can give us a clear idea of what has worked, what could be done better, and guide us in how we will approach and deal with challenges that may arise. As I learn about what how others schools and school districts have implemented the use of iPads in their schools, there are ideas that resonate throughout. I hope those ideas are well portrayed in my call to action.
