@rsehji @DJCE57 @KSThakral Is #InZpired happening tonight?
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 10:51 PM EDT

Welcome to #INZPirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 10:52 PM EDT

@JenaiaMorane Just started - Internet issues in Delhi so bit of a delayed start. #INZPirED
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 10:55 PM EDT

@KSThakral #INZpired There you are :-)
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 10:56 PM EDT

Is imagination more important than knowledge? If so, how do we let our Ss imagine in lessons. #INZPirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 10:58 PM EDT

@JenaiaMorane Morning Jena. Teething issues with setting up in Delhi. #INZPirED
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 10:59 PM EDT

@KSThakral #INZpired Imagination=what let's us take knowledge & shape it into something bigger-connect dots 2 form ideas, dreams, projects
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 10:59 PM EDT

@KSThakral #INZpired LOL why am I not surprised? How are you liking your new digs?
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:01 PM EDT

#INZpired As 4 how, U know what I'll say :-) Story-driven projects that consciously applied to real-world situations & by taking down walls.
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:02 PM EDT

@JenaiaMorane Without imagination there might not be new knowledge. The power to dream is so vital #INZPirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:03 PM EDT

@JenaiaMorane Hot and humid at the moment but the school is amazing #INZPirED
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:03 PM EDT

@KSThakral #INZpired SO happy to hear. I want to hear all about it.
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:04 PM EDT

@KSThakral #INZpired Agree. It's our job (I believe) to serve as catalysts and guides. Also willing students who can let our Ss teach US.
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:04 PM EDT

@JenaiaMorane My thinking is the time and an environment needs to be built where children can imagine. #INZPirED
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:05 PM EDT

@KSThakral #INZpired I agree. Believe it's an approach and an attitude as well. If it's assumed that we want to hear Ss' ideas then no fear.
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:06 PM EDT

@JenaiaMorane There is often a struggle that I see, where most think it is a good idea but often end up not implementing it. #INZPirED
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:09 PM EDT

@KSThakral #INZpired This=new big goal 4 NPHC. IMost Ts were raised in current closed system & need practice. Want 2 provide support & tools
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:10 PM EDT

We are developing an Innovation lounge where children can pop in and think without any pressure. Play a game, read a book, write #INZPirED
lesliefarooq Aug 5 @ 11:11 PM EDT

@KSThakral This sounds like the best thing since sliced bread! How did it all start? #INZpirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:12 PM EDT

@JenaiaMorane Initiatives like NPHC are def. needed and in a greater frequency perhaps even localised in different languages #INZPirED
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:12 PM EDT

@KSThakral #INZpired Perhaps your school's NPHC could live there as well? Ss need a place, space & tools 2 collaborate w/each other globally
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:13 PM EDT

@lesliefarooq @KSThakral #INZpired HI Leslie! We're talking about how to implement both in classroom and out.
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:13 PM EDT

@KSThakral #INZpired Agree. I want virtual space for the kids to meet and collaborate as well.
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:14 PM EDT

@lesliefarooq Lead taken by our primary principal at #TBSDelhi to build the space. I joined at a perfect time to develop it :) :) #INZPirED
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:15 PM EDT

@KSThakral @lesliefarooq #INZpired Ahhh how nice of the universe to give you the nudge :-)
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:15 PM EDT

@JenaiaMorane At the moment the space is being built and I will def get back to you when the lounge is completed. #INZPirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:16 PM EDT

@JenaiaMorane We are thinking on the same lines. A portal to the world outside the school. #INZPirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:18 PM EDT
It will be when it is ready in a month. Powered by the ideas generated here by our PLN on #INZPirED and #Twitter https://t.co/DUybdXzefX

@JenaiaMorane @lesliefarooq Sometimes you end up at the right place at the right time, others you have to make it the right place #INZPirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:21 PM EDT

@leticarino @lesliefarooq Def..Envisage them to walk in. Pick something of interest and explore #INZPirED
cvarsalona Aug 5 @ 11:24 PM EDT

@KSThakral Innovation Lounge-What a great title for an area where Ss can be inspired. #INZpirED
cvarsalona Aug 5 @ 11:25 PM EDT

Carol from Long Island popping into #INZpirED. Hi friends.
cvarsalona Aug 5 @ 11:25 PM EDT

@KSThakral Exciting that the ideas for Innovation Lounge were seeded during #INZpirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:25 PM EDT

@cvarsalona Hi Carol, Envisage creative poetry to be part of it #INZPirED by you. A lot of ideas from our PLN are going to be visible there.
JenaiaMorane Aug 5 @ 11:27 PM EDT

#inzpired Calling it quits 4 the night fabulous folks. It's 11:30 here & have an early day tomorrow. Thanks for the inspiration, as always.
cvarsalona Aug 5 @ 11:27 PM EDT

@KSThakral I am thrilled that your students will visit Innovation Lounge to create #digipoetry so Voice can fly. #INZpirED
cvarsalona Aug 5 @ 11:28 PM EDT

@KSThakral Would love to collaborate with your students one day to create their #digital #inspirations. Exciting. #INZpirED
KSThakral - Moderator Aug 5 @ 11:29 PM EDT

@cvarsalona At our new parentinduction, I heard the most amazing Slam poetry by a student who discovered her love for it in school #INZPirED
