Solutions please |Lightning Decision Jam (3 of 6)

We are in the middle of an online lightening decision jam. So far we have identified problems and voted on the ones we think are worth taking on, the juicy ones, if you like.

The most voted problem (Changing mindset “We have always done it that way) has now been converted into a “How might we…” challenge statement ready for you to contribute ideas, solutions we can source and vote on.

How might we change mindset for staff in school to embrace change in order to transform opportunities for learners?

Bias to Action | Lightning Decision Jam (1 of 6)

Make more effective decisions in a fraction of the time. I am pretty sure my journey to design thinking began in long pointless meetings, so here is a way to avoid them.

Discussion can slow decisions to a snail’s pace (sorry snails!). A lightning decision jam is a process for getting from problems to solutions in 30 minutes. To save you from a long blog describing it step by step, let’s do one!

We will…

• Identify problems we want to solve in the education space.
• Pick the problem to take forward,
• Converting the problem into a ‘How might we…‘ statement and generate ideas to solve it.
• Vote on the ideas to take forward
• Assess impact and effort of each idea
• Identify steps to make the ideas happen in next 2-3 weeks
