    • He was great. I am so glad folk who missed the live Daggett can see his presentation.

    • Thanks for posting Bill Daggett’s presentation. His message remains consistent and is perhaps even more relevant today. I’m interested in your thoughts about his reference to the Common Core as “outdated?”

      • Daggett spoke about that… The Common Core was initially developed in 2008. It is now 2015 and the world has changed so much during that time. The Common Core standards were written to address skills needed in 2008… not in 2015 and beyond.

        • Yes….he explained his reasoning….I would just like to see more evidence for the basis of his statement in addition to dates.

          • Hey Linda… your comments are definitely thought provoking. I have attached below an article that Daggett wrote they addresses some your question. As far as for Common Core… I think we have all said it ourselves… the CCS are the basement, and we must be looking to expand and go beyond them. I took Daggett’s comments as a statement that the world is changing much faster than we are in education. Even with the new standards… we are not keeping pace. I would like to believe the work that groups like the UK NEXGEN and KVEC is doing will help to get us in front and train our students for the future.

            • I agree, Paul. This publication is a great companion piece for Dr. Daggett’s comments. I especially liked this Point:
              “While dealing with the wide array of issues that challenge school leaders daily, exemplary leaders keep a careful eye
              on emerging and “disruptively transformative” trends that may impact their schools, teachers, and
              students in the next one to three years. By doing so, they avoid making short-term decisions that will
              haunt them in the near future as the disruptive trends change the dynamics in and around schools.”
