    A1) Innovation in teaching means using techniques that are future-oriented. #bcedchat

    In reply to @bcedchat

    Hi everyone my name is Catherine and I'm an education major from the University of Oklahoma. I hope to learn a lot tonight #bcedchat
  • dramaqueen4 Nov 13 @ 10:08 PM EST
    #bcedchat A1: I think innovation is literally turning an idea on its head or inside out. Creativity is tweaking, spicing.
  • CarrieFroese Nov 13 @ 10:08 PM EST
    This feels like test question of did we read @gcouros Innovator's Mindset Great book #bcedchat
    In reply to @gcouros
  • brynmw Nov 13 @ 10:08 PM EST
    A1: Innovation is changing direction; creativity is directional change (or something like that) #bcedchat
  • Keithrispin Nov 13 @ 10:08 PM EST
    A1: innovation means asking for forgiveness not permission. #innovation #bcedchat
    In reply to @bcedchat
  • k_timms Nov 13 @ 10:08 PM EST
    Innovation is anything new or a new combination of old ideas that has value #bcedchat
  • perfinker Nov 13 @ 10:08 PM EST
    A1 I'm not sure we can tease those apart...both need "the possible"--imagination, inspiration, confidence, risk-taking, curiosity #bcedchat
    • bcedchat Nov 13 @ 10:06 PM EST
      Q1: What does innovation mean to you? How is it different from creativity? What mindset do we need? #bcedchat

    Interesting definition! #bcedchat
    In reply to @rpledet
  • MsVictoriaOlson Nov 13 @ 10:08 PM EST
    A1) Creative pedagogy is when we design, move, shift, and change techniques to solve problems that arise. #bcedchat

    A1: Innovation = flexible & new. In order to innovate must have growth mindset (both Ss and Ts) #bcedchat

    Just a thought to get the ball rolling. #bcedchat
    In reply to @CraigMah
  • AlexVKluge Nov 13 @ 10:09 PM EST
    A1 I am not sure if creative approaches wouldn't necessarily be innovative. #BCEdChat
  • amboe_k Nov 13 @ 10:09 PM EST
    So true. Asking for permission often gets a no answer. Showing what works after its innovated gets forgiven #bcedchat
    In reply to @Keithrispin, @bcedchat
  • Teach4AbEd Nov 13 @ 10:09 PM EST
    A1: Innovation= changing status quo. We need a #growthmindset @growthmindset1 #bcedchat
    In reply to @growthmindset1
  • MsVictoriaOlson Nov 13 @ 10:09 PM EST
    This. And we need to be okay with that from ourselves, our colleagues, and our students. #bcedchat

  • MsVictoriaOlson Nov 13 @ 10:10 PM EST
    I want to push on the idea of innovation vs creativity a bit here. Has me thinking. #bcedchat

  • hoffmanteambret Nov 13 @ 10:11 PM EST
    Creativity is a diff way of looking at the box. Innovation is ditching the box altogether. #bcedchat
  • Gbraun41 Nov 13 @ 10:11 PM EST
    Q1 A1-for me it's finding different approaches to the norm. For instance-- looking at different timetables to meet learner needs #bcedchat
  • CraigMah - Moderator Nov 13 @ 10:11 PM EST
    Q2 is on the way from @kennethheadley! #bcedchat is ON FIRE tonight!!!! :)
    In reply to @KennethHeadley
  • AlexVKluge Nov 13 @ 10:11 PM EST
    A1 Innovation though, might include copying an approach into a different setting. This isn't quite so creative. :) #BCEdChat
  • CarrieAntoniazz Nov 13 @ 10:11 PM EST
    A1: Creativity is a prerequisite to innovation, you need to be able to think differently to grow + challenge what's around you #bcedchat
  • nathan_stevens Nov 13 @ 10:11 PM EST
    @bcedchat we also need to allow students to personalize projects to create real innovation #bcedchat
    In reply to @MsVictoriaOlson, @bcedchat
  • MsVictoriaOlson Nov 13 @ 10:11 PM EST
    If innovation is "creating something new," most of what I do isn't innovative. #bcedchat
  • PegGrafwallner Nov 13 @ 10:11 PM EST
    Peg, Instruc coach/Reading Spec from MKE. A1 Innovation means Ts have opportunity 2 do what makes sense & what keeps Ss engaged #bcedchat
  • MrBrownPE Nov 13 @ 10:11 PM EST
    A1: Innovation is the freedom to try new things in learning knowing full well you might make mistakes. #bcedchat

    Oftentimes people differentiate imagination and creativity that way--the "thinking" and the "doing" I'm not convinced... #bcedchat

  • amboe_k Nov 13 @ 10:12 PM EST
    A1 I would also say innovation is less active and creativity is more likely to be seen daily in schools #bcedchat
  • Keithrispin Nov 13 @ 10:12 PM EST
    permission is a time waster. involves committees, other people's input... By the time U do it, it is no longer innovative #bcedchat
    In reply to @amboe_k
  • nathan_stevens Nov 13 @ 10:12 PM EST
    We need to remember that innovation does not always need to be center on technology. #bcedchat
  • CraigMah - Moderator Nov 13 @ 10:12 PM EST
    They are connected and sometimes they appear appart. Innovation is the actionable piece to creatively. #bcedchat

  • Gbraun41 Nov 13 @ 10:12 PM EST
    Q1 A2 or perhaps introducing voice and choice to teachers on what is happening at school... Or to students in my classes #bcedchat
  • perfinker Nov 13 @ 10:12 PM EST
    Ok #bcedchat ers...where does "imagination" fit in?
    • DCulberhouse Nov 13 @ 10:10 PM EST
      Creativity is in ideas. Innovation is putting those ideas into action. Innovation must be based in value & adoption of that value @bcedchat
      In reply to @bcedchat
  • MsVictoriaOlson Nov 13 @ 10:12 PM EST
    Much of this suggests we need to let go of the control, too. Co-learning ensures this. #bcedchat
    In reply to @nathan_stevens
  • rchids Nov 13 @ 10:13 PM EST
    but I bet what you are effective - even if you are not innovating #bcedchat
    In reply to @MsVictoriaOlson
  • DCulberhouse Nov 13 @ 10:13 PM EST
    Innovation isn’t always grounded in novel and new…sometimes it is putting together what already exists in profoundly unique ways. #bcedchat
  • amboe_k Nov 13 @ 10:13 PM EST
    Innovation is rarely about technology. If anything it is often about how we use a technology creatively #bcedchat

    Most of the time innovation happens around a taco truck #bcedchat
  • dramaqueen4 Nov 13 @ 10:13 PM EST
    A1: Innovation is change so our mindset must be and should be open. You cannot have one w/o the other #bcedchat
  • brynmw Nov 13 @ 10:13 PM EST
    Good question. Imagination is the creative spark to allow us to move towards innovation. #bcedchat
    In reply to @perfinker
  • MrBrownPE Nov 13 @ 10:13 PM EST
    A1: innovation is slow-moving and must be change for the better, not just change for the sake of change. #bcedchat
  • CraigMah - Moderator Nov 13 @ 10:13 PM EST
    It's also looking at things differently. Can be contextual. What's innovative to me, may have been before. #bcedchat
