The ActivClassroom is a 360-degree, classroom technology-enabled learning environment comprising interactive white boards, Learner Response Systems, software, training, professional development and resources all proven to improve educational results.
Research - What were their findings?
The Marzano’s Research concluded that the Promethean Board actively engaged all learners. The innovation built lessons that were aligned to the curriculum and the needs of the students.
It enhanced a collaborative teaching system that increased student participation.
The Smartboard was the first innovation that was followed by the Promethean Board. Tony Cann was the founder and chairman of the Promethean Group that was interested in addressing educators for this innovation.
The Innovators & Early Adopters
Academic Supervisor Lead Teachers New Teachers
Strategies› Trialability› Observability› Training
The Laggards
Faculty with five plus years Managers
Strategies to help move them toward adoption › Training› Observability› Trialability› Peer Buddy
Meeting the Critical Mass
Which combination of perceived attributes would be best for helping your innovation meet critical mass in your industry:› Complexability› Trialability
Centralized or Decentralized
Do you believe a centralized or decentralized approach would work best for the adoption of the innovation you are proposing to the Board of Directors? › A decentralized approach would work best
for the Board of Directors’ adoption of the Promethean Board. The stakeholders (teachers) would manage the foundational leg work and decision making then share with others.
Centralized or Decentralized
Who will you recommend as key change agents in your organization, and how can the seven roles of a change agent be used in your organization to effect positive social change?
› The key agents in our organization will be the lead teachers, the academic supervisor, the secretary and myself. The lead teachers, academic supervisor and myself will be key in providing information, training and finding funding to obtain the technology. The secretary will be key in maintaining notes, orders and in spreading the word to others.
Seven Roles of Change Agents
Develop a need for change Establish an information exchange
relationship Diagnose problem Create an intent to change in the client Translate an intent into action Stabilize adoption and prevent
discontinuance Achieve a terminal relationship
Centralized or Decentralized
Has the innovation you are proposing to the Board already met critical mass in society? If it has not met critical mass, which of the four strategies for achieving critical mass do you recommend to the Board for your innovation?
› Yes! The technology bug has hit our department like a stomach virus after drinking the water in Mexico. The Promethean Board has met critical mass. The lead teachers came to me asking for assistance in getting technology in our building, especially the Promethean Board. They have already went to the web site and studied the dynamics and benefits of the Promethean as well as all the resources that are available.
Need for Innovation
Defining the need for your innovation:› Finding a new way to present lessons that
would appeal to the different learning styles of the learners.
› Diagnostic date from the TABE test shows areas of deficiency in the following areas: Interpreting Graphic Information Recall Information Clues in Content Construct Meaning Evaluate/Extending Meanings
Need for innovation
Matching your innovation to that need.› The Promethean Board and the CPS
system (clicker system) will allow for immediate feedback as well as interaction between the students and instructors.
› The interactive feature of the Promethean Board will address the different learning styles of the students.
› Access to other resources will assist in enhancing the lessons and comprehension of the students
Organizational innovation adoption: “Collective Decision”
Data driven instruction to document and facilitate teaching strategies and methods
Ongoing assessment and training Champions: Teachers and Students –
Provide training and support
