Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:06:01 teaching innovation is quite broad isnt it? Hard to define it so it fits everyone #eltchat
iPrOud82 2015-02-04T21:06:04 "@angelos_bollas: Hello #ELTchat!" Hello dearMissed today's #eltchat and sorry wont be able to catch it anymore bcoz of my job :'(
theteacherjames 2015-02-04T21:06:06 @Marisa_C now you’re going to make me jealous! Glad to hear you’re on the mend :-) #ELTchat

joannacre 2015-02-04T21:07:28 @Shaunwilden yeah! #eltchat
theteacherjames 2015-02-04T21:07:28 @SueAnnan I suppose it depends on the context. What’s innovative in one place is nothing new somewhere else. #ELTchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:07:30 @Marisa_C no. We still teach f2f, in-company. But we don't use physical books, but digital content, like PPT, video #ELTchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:07:38 RT @theteacherjames: @SueAnnan I suppose it depends on the context. What’s innovative in one place is nothing new somewhere else. #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:08:12 @theteacherjames yes. Just teaching my colleagues to use tech is innovative chez nous #eltchat
ITLegge 2015-02-04T21:08:26 @SueAnnan practice of fresh ideas to challenge or support old ones #eltchat

SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:09:06 However, the contents we teach with come from books, but in Digital version, also PPts and videos. It's not so different #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:09:27 We just started a Diploma course this week for some colleagues. Should have seen the palaver with the moodle! #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:10:02 Is there a system to follow - like identify need - try out-evaluate or should we innovate any which way? #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:10:11 @SueAnnan the fact that you're always trying what works best and motivating students with up-to-date courses. #ELTchat
theteacherjames 2015-02-04T21:10:31 @SueAnnan I imagine there are still places where the communicative approach is innovative! #ELTchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:10:36 @Marisa_C Don’t both ways work to some extent? #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:10:37 I've started teaching from National Geographic CB. The materials, including online stuff are stunning #ELTchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:10:38 I see many ppl connecting innovative teaching to technology. Is it just that? #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:11:01 RT @joannacre: I see many ppl connecting innovative teaching to technology. Is it just that? #eltchat I wouldn’t say so
ELTchat 2015-02-04T21:11:24 @joannacre no not really - it's any novel way of trying to improve methods and outcomes #eltchat
angelos_bollas 2015-02-04T21:11:37 my machine doesn’t work properly - hope to fix it soon and be back #eltchat
Ven_VVE 2015-02-04T21:11:40 Possibly private sector has more freedom 2 introduce innovations becuz of fewer constraints imposed by ministries, etc. #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:11:40 @joannacre no not really - it's any novel way of trying to improve methods and outcomes #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:11:43 @Marisa_C personally, I feel innovation comes every time we get stuck and feel some change is needed, some new and fresh idea #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:11:46 @joannacre No. I don't think so. Just being more student- centred is innovative in some schools #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:12:23 @Ven_VVE Good point #eltchat
Ven_VVE 2015-02-04T21:12:43 Hi all, lurking today. Marking exam papers. #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:12:45 @SueAnnan @joannacre agreed, can be anything that betters the learning and teaching or even the school atmosphere #eltchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:13:16 @ELTchat so even trying out sth new  Being in the shoes of the learner can lead to innovative teaching methods #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:13:17 @SueAnnan so who is this an innovation for - You or the Ss - how to prepare for innovation a question #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:13:19 @ELTwriter both. The material is really fresh. I'm learning loads from it daily :-) #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:14:23 Innovating means introducing new methods and ideas. Actually, we can innovate on a daily basis! #eltchat
ELTwriter 2015-02-04T21:14:27 @Ven_VVE True. Stakes are higher at ministries, no? Would you play safe if you were minister of ed? #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:14:29 @Marisa_C Its nice to work from something fresh, for both T and Sts #eltchat

Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:15:09 @Shaunwilden  @joannacre yes - like deciding to have a drama club is an innovation not just tech #eltchat
LaurenEHarrison 2015-02-04T21:15:14 RT @MacmillanMexico: Talk to a man in his own language...#esl #elt #LearningEnglish #languages #eltchat http://t.co/HMfVSDecbc
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:15:37 @Marisa_C @joannacre Thats exactly the idea I was thinking :) #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:15:42 @Marisa_C @Shaunwilden @joannacre or a lending library of graded readers? #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:15:55 RT @SueAnnan: @Marisa_C @Shaunwilden @joannacre or a lending library of graded readers? #eltchat
Ven_VVE 2015-02-04T21:15:57 @ELTwriter Probably. #eltchat Also maybe less risky to introduce sth new with adults as opposed to kids?
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:16:01 @SueAnnan  could you provide a link pls? Can't seem to find it on Google. #eltchat :)
ELTwriter 2015-02-04T21:17:15 Anyone switching to a BYOD environment for classes? #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:17:21 So if accept innovation can be any change (not just tech) then back to the ‘how do you support it’ bit #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:17:58 @Shaunwilden That's a good question. You need a lot of people to get onboard. #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:18:43 @SueAnnan Well you need everyone on board dont you if you’re to avoid resistance :) #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:19:03 Home | NGL Life http://t.co/zhEQhitW95 this is a great and innovative tool! #ELTchat thanks @SueAnnan
Ven_VVE 2015-02-04T21:19:06 @Shaunwilden Be open if yr staff wants 2 try out something new or do something differently. #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:19:12 @Shaunwilden you certainly need the majority #eltchat
ELTwriter 2015-02-04T21:19:34 Isn't it true that ELT only sees #edtech as a real innovation these days. Everything else is sooo yesterday :( #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:19:56 @SueAnnan So introduction or planned intro needs to follow good change management strategy #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:19:57 @ELTwriter doesn't that depends where you work? #eltchat
lexicojules 2015-02-04T21:20:22 Just providing Ts opportunities to share new ideas w colleagues can be a good source of innovation #ELTchat
ITLegge 2015-02-04T21:20:32 @Shaunwilden you need convincing facts and figures, proof that it's worth supporting? #eltchat
theteacherjames 2015-02-04T21:20:33 @ELTwriter I don’t have a choice if I want to use any tech, other than BYOD. No other facilities available in my school. #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:20:39 @Shaunwilden and good salesmanship #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:21:00 @ELTwriter No I don think, I think that idea is created by social media  #eltchat
ELTchat 2015-02-04T21:21:10 RT @lexicojules: Just providing Ts opportunities to share new ideas w colleagues can be a good source of innovation #ELTchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:21:20 RT @ITLegge: @Shaunwilden you need convincing facts and figures, proof that it's worth supporting? #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:21:35 Introducing innovation or change will be the hardest part. Sometimes teachers will need to get updated on new technologies. #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:22:10 @SusanaCBermejo many teachers cope badly with change of any kind #ELTchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:22:11 @SusanaCBermejo so bring them into the process as early as you can, before the actual change is to be made #eltchat
3ty3 2015-02-04T21:22:50 @SueAnnan Throwing out all textbooks is genuinely innovative, in my view (just one example) #ELTChat
teflwithtilly 2015-02-04T21:23:06 I think innovative teaching is having the ability to include trends in class i.e. youtube, news topics or films & characters! #eltchat
ELTwriter 2015-02-04T21:23:34 @Shaunwilden Ownership to teachers - empower them. Let them be the champions & sme of their own innovations #eltchat ;) idealist
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:23:41 @3ty3 Have to get the gang on side to try that one :-) #eltchat
Ven_VVE 2015-02-04T21:24:02 @ITLegge @Shaunwilden which I know can work well in (small) language school, not sure about larger organizations. #eltchat
JaninaW 2015-02-04T21:24:09 Innovation seems now to have a clear link to tech but so much more can be included!   #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:24:21 @ELTwriter hardly idealist, well i guess depends it might be but i’ve had success with it #eltchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:24:30 @SueAnnan @SusanaCBermejo so do some parents. I think kids are the ones who are more welcoming to sth innovative #eltchat
ELTwriter 2015-02-04T21:24:34 @SueAnnan @Shaunwilden You need champions  #eltchat to drive innovation- sell hope of a brighter future
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:24:49 Do we need to ask Ss how they feel abt new ideas and ways of doing things? #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:25:04 @Marisa_C Yes. I think so #eltchat
lexicojules 2015-02-04T21:25:32 I've seen some great ideas presented by colleagues at PD sessions that really convinced others - not imposed from 'on high' #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:26:02 @ELTwriter I get away with huge amounts- but I can't see that one flying #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:26:02 @joannacre @SueAnnan  ask ss and parents maybe for YLs as Joanna says - #eltchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:26:05 @Marisa_C yeap!! feedback. Best way to go about it #eltchat
JaninaW 2015-02-04T21:26:13 Teacher buy in and change management seems very linked to everyone having to use said 'innovation'. Isn't it also personal?  #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:26:52 In small local communities parents create the most resistance to innovation and change #eltchat
lexicojules 2015-02-04T21:26:54 @Marisa_C I often tell Ss I'm going to try out sth new, then get feedback at the end #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:27:10 @lexicojules we are going to be doing more of that this year #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:27:14 RT @Marisa_C: In small local communities parents create the most resistance to innovation and change #eltchat very true
ELTwriter 2015-02-04T21:27:31 @Marisa_C Asking the difficult questions will get you difficult answers maybe you don't want ;) #eltchat
ITLegge 2015-02-04T21:27:56 @joannacre @SueAnnan @SusanaCBermejo Pt-school communication important to avoid this: workshops etc #eltchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:28:09 RT @Marisa_C: In small local communities parents create the most resistance to innovation and change #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:28:20 @JaninaW teacher buy in very important - if we are not convinced first & foremost nothing much is going to work is it #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:28:28 RT @Marisa_C: @JaninaW teacher buy in very important - if we are not convinced first & foremost nothing much is going to work is it #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:28:58 @JaninaW but change management still a novel concept in many schools - school leaders operate by hit or myth in many cases #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:29:08 @Marisa_C  You can't sell an idea to Ts that they have rejected #eltchat
fionaljp 2015-02-04T21:29:27 @lexicojules #ELTchat Yes, I think ideally teaching support should be bottom-up from teachers to teachers encouraged from ‘on high’
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:29:47 RT @SueAnnan: @Marisa_C  You can't sell an idea to Ts that they have rejected #eltchat well you could repackage it
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:30:32 @Shaunwilden @Marisa_C that would be the only chance, I feel #eltchat
ELTwriter 2015-02-04T21:30:43 @ITLegge How does that work? If some have and others don't & CB is on device? #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:31:08 RT @ITLegge: @Marisa_C @JaninaW @SueAnnan that's why the first pitch is so important! Or why bottom up innovation works best? #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:31:25 @ITLegge nicely put :-) #eltchat
fionaljp 2015-02-04T21:32:03 RT @Ven_VVE: @Shaunwilden Be open if yr staff wants 2 try out something new or do something differently. #eltchat Yes
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:33:00 @fionaljp @Ven_VVE @Shaunwilden and give it time to test it properly. Then evaluate #eltchat
JaninaW 2015-02-04T21:33:07 Not encourage and enable teachers to innovate rather than get them to follow our (managers/leaders) innovations? #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:33:46 @SueAnnan @fionaljp @Ven_VVE  Yes which can mean a small scale experiment for an academic year #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:33:52 Please remember the #ELTchat hashtag. We are missing some super tweets
Ven_VVE 2015-02-04T21:33:57 @ITLegge @Shaunwilden True. I think maybe management will be more inflexible if there's more staff #eltchat though probably not everywhere
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:34:09 RT @Shaunwilden: @SueAnnan @fionaljp @Ven_VVE  Yes which can mean a small scale experiment for an academic year #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:34:24 RT @SusanaCBermejo: @joannacre @SueAnnan yeah. Students usually willing to introduce changes #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:34:29 start of my TT career employer  took 3-4 years to process an innovation idea #eltchat I found myself training her up eventually
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:34:34 RT @lexicojules: Sr Ts can play a role in trialling, explaining & demo-ing new ideas. If others see sth works, more likely to adopt #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:34:35 Maybe innovating with new tech is about the way you present materials to SS. I think the methodology is practically the same #ELTchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:34:41 Do you think that in some contexts innovation is better accepted than in others? GE?EAP?ESP? #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:35:13 RT @Shaunwilden: @SueAnnan @fionaljp @Ven_VVE  Yes which can mean a small scale experiment for an academic year #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:35:13 RT @dimitra_gian: @Shaunwilden @SueAnnan @Marisa_C I agree too #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:35:36 @Ven_VVE @ITLegge Maybe so but that doesn’t men they shouldn’t try, the more its imposed the less likely it is to be adopted #eltchat
theteacherjames 2015-02-04T21:35:51 Schools should also support teachers doing their own autonomous projects. Personalised innovation. #ELTchat
lexicojules 2015-02-04T21:36:01 Senior Ts can play a role in trialling, explaining & demo-ing new ideas. If others see sth works, more likely to adopt #ELTchat (oops!)

SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:37:06 RT @ITLegge: @Shaunwilden @SueAnnan @fionaljp @Ven_VVE just had a pd session on action research today from @JaninaW :) #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:37:18 So do you guys feel that more innovation is needed in your everyday teaching? #ELtchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:37:23 @theteacherjames i like that - small scale innovations being tried out and shared in staff meetings #eltchat
JaninaW 2015-02-04T21:38:01 RT @theteacherjames: Schools should also support teachers doing their own autonomous projects. Personalised innovation. #ELTchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:38:04 @SusanaCBermejo I think things need a shake up from time to time, or you could become stale #eltchat

Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:39:01 @SusanaCBermejo defintely - change is a key factor in ongoing development #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:39:05 @Marisa_C @SusanaCBermejo you mean generally speaking across the whole of ELT? #eltchat

joannacre 2015-02-04T21:39:25 @SueAnnan @SusanaCBermejo yeah- no innovative teaching going on when u r in a rut #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:40:05 @joannacre @SusanaCBermejo AS one colleague said- if you stand still, you sink #eltchat
MarianSteiner 2015-02-04T21:40:23 @Marisa_C @SusanaCBermejo definitely #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:40:25 @Shaunwilden @Marisa_C no, I meant personally, in your everyday teaching or classes in the place where u work #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:40:27 RT @SusanaCBermejo: . Like any other product or service, things are renewed, presented differently, in a more innovative way #ELTChat
ITLegge 2015-02-04T21:41:01 "@JaninaW ...I don't think it has to do with size of staff bt whether managera are still interested in/and teaching?" > ah ha! #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:41:04 @bethcagnol you might want to join the #ELTchat! Going on right now :)
theteacherjames 2015-02-04T21:41:17 @Marisa_C yes, the feedback part it’s very valuable. #ELTchat
Ven_VVE 2015-02-04T21:41:30 @JaninaW @Shaunwilden @ITLegge That too, but when u have a bigger staff it's harder to keep everything under control. #eltchat

joannacre 2015-02-04T21:44:48 @SusanaCBermejo @Marisa_C I would like to see more money spent on education. Can't think about innovation whenfreezing in class #eltchat
ariascarm 2015-02-04T21:45:15 @theteacherjames In my school tech Training is voluntary , so I guess each of us gets our own level of expertise #eltchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:45:20 @dimitra_gian in which area? Maybe introducing new technologies? Maybe the way lessons are developed or the curricula? #ELTchat

MarianSteiner 2015-02-04T21:45:52 @ariascarm @theteacherjames @ELTchat innovation ideas often met w blank stares, great to have practical exmaples of benefits #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:45:55 we made a list that Ts can add to, then they can have workshops on things they need #eltchat
ariascarm 2015-02-04T21:46:29 @SusanaCBermejo @Marisa_C I'd like to see more balanced commitment with innovation #eltchat
Ven_VVE 2015-02-04T21:47:08 @JaninaW @Shaunwilden @ITLegge I agree. It's just I think some managers place too much emphasis on control. #eltchat Could be cultural.
ITLegge 2015-02-04T21:47:18 @fionaljp @SusanaCBermejo @Marisa_C communication with Ts, Sts, parents needs overhaul with perspective of mobiles and social media #eltchat
theteacherjames 2015-02-04T21:47:31 @ariascarm True, but does that not lead to some teachers not really learning anything new? #ELTchat
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:47:45 @fionaljp yeah, sharing ideas! Teachers don't work as a team, sometimes. #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:48:14 @theteacherjames @ariascarm aren’t there always teachers who dont want to learn anything new #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:48:22 @SusanaCBermejo @fionaljp but if you want personalised innovation, the team is less important #eltchat
theteacherjames 2015-02-04T21:48:26 @MarianSteiner @ariascarm @theteacherjames especially if it comes straight from another teacher rather than a boss #ELTchat
ITLegge 2015-02-04T21:48:43 @Ven_VVE @JaninaW @Shaunwilden you're right - often like to keep others' innovation for themselves too, or not let others innovate #eltchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:48:49 @vpapage just emphasising that more money needs to be spent on education #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:49:21 @Shaunwilden Always people who resist change - back to your point - how should leaders support innovation? #eltchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:49:36 @vpapage Vicky I think you add #eltchat at the end
theteacherjames 2015-02-04T21:49:38 @Shaunwilden @ariascarm a perennial problem... #ELTchat
ariascarm 2015-02-04T21:49:39 @Shaunwilden @theteacherjames exactly , and even get upset when others try, they are afraid of change #eltchat
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:50:03 @Marisa_C @Shaunwilden first thing is to open dialogue #eltchat
ITLegge 2015-02-04T21:50:12 @Shaunwilden @theteacherjames @ariascarm if peers are innovating, they are more likely to be interested #eltchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:50:28 @ITLegge @Ven_VVE @JaninaW @Shaunwilden aw good point!! Innovation is about sharing!! #eltchat
lexicojules 2015-02-04T21:50:48 Aren't there always naturally just some self-starters, some good sharers & some who want an easy life? Can't avoid that w any group #ELTchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:51:03 RT @ITLegge: @theteacherjames @ariascarm if peers are innovating, they are more likely to be interested #eltchat Well maybe but not always
SueAnnan 2015-02-04T21:51:12 RT @SusanaCBermejo:  @fionaljp so we can say teachers can be innovative in your class in spite of the school's lack of innovation #ELTChat
ariascarm 2015-02-04T21:51:26 @theteacherjames @MarianSteiner  yeah, but I DO believe in horizontal learning, We can learn a lot from daring colleagues #eltchat
Shaunwilden 2015-02-04T21:51:33 RT @fionaljp: Where I work it’s been suggested to have workshops to feed back on recently read ELT articles of interest, etc .#eltchat
ITLegge 2015-02-04T21:51:44 @SueAnnan @SusanaCBermejo @fionaljp Ts often have similar interests when developing - sml teams innovating together? #eltchat #idealist
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:52:06 @SueAnnan @Marisa_C @Shaunwilden yes. Communication is key #eltchat
Marisa_C 2015-02-04T21:52:22 @SusanaCBermejo that would be innovation with a small i - yes def! and bigtime starts there! #eltchat
joannacre 2015-02-04T21:52:39 @vpapage i'd like to think so : ) #eltchat
ELTwriter 2015-02-04T21:52:49 @Marisa_C @Shaunwilden Not all change is right, tho #eltchat takes guts to stand up and say so sometimes
SusanaCBermejo 2015-02-04T21:52:50 “@ELTchat: @SusanaCBermejo that would be innovation with a small i - yes def! and bigtime starts there! #eltchat” So true
