#IMMOOC2

How do you move from “pockets of innovation” to a “culture of innovation”?

How do we start to innovate inside of the box?

What does innovation mean for education, and should every educator be an innovator?

These are questions that I have addressed in my book, “The Innovator’s Mindset”, and will continue to dig deeper into with the second “Innovator’s Mindset Massive Open Online Course” that will be starting again on February 27, 2017.

The brilliant Katie Martin will be joining again to help host this experience,  but alumni from the first course will also be taking part to lead in this experience as well.  Not only is this a great way to dig deeper into the content of the book, it is an amazing opportunity to create your own learning, while networking with passionate educators around the world.  We have also confirmed guests that will be joining us not only for a YouTube Live, but as well as a Twitter chat every Wednesday night at 9pm EST (6pm PST).  

We are also extremely excited to bring on some awesome guests for this experience that will share their own experiences and work, to open up the learning past the book.

The guests and the times are as follows:

Actual Date Topic Guests Twitter Chat
February 27, 8pm EST Introduction AJ Juliani and John Spencer March 1, 9pm EST
March 5, 8pm EST Part 1: Innovation in Education Sarah Thomas March 8, 9pm EST
March 12, 8pm EST Part 2:  Laying the Groundwork Amber Teamann and Matt Arend March 15, 9pm EST
March 20, 8pm EST Part 3: Unleashing Talent Jennifer Casa-Todd March 22, 9pm EST
March 26, 8pm EST Part 4: Concluding Thoughts To be announced March 29,

9pm EST


If you miss the original YouTube Live session, you will be able to watch the recorded version or listen to the podcast.

If you are interested in joining, please do the following:

  1. Buy a copy of “The Innovator’s Mindset“. We will have a “selfie challenge” coming soon so get your book as soon as you can so you can win a prize for our draw.
  2. Sign up for the course (also listed below).
  3. Get your blog ready to go! (I suggest either edublogs.org or wordpress.com)
  4. Share that you are joining to the #IMMOOC hashtag on Twitter and share this link for others to sign up.
  5. Join the Facebook group.

The great thing about the first IMMOOC, was participants created their own spaces to share as well. This is not limited to the groups that we are using above, so if you are interested in making your own spaces, please feel free to do so.

We look forward to having so many great people join this process and delving deeper into the importance of innovation in education.

#IMMOOC2 #InnovatorsMindsetMOOC

Due to the popularity of the first “Innovator’s MindsetMOOC (MOOC stands for “Massive Open Online Course”), we are running this free course again (you will just need a copy of the book to participate).  The approximate dates will be from February 27, 2017, until April 3, 2017 and here are some of the logistics of this free course.

Focused on the book, “The Innovator’s Mindset“, participants will join a global book study (the last group had over 2000 people sign up…check out the last schedule if you are interested), where they will not only have the chance to read the book together but also create and share their own learning with a global community through their own blog and social media accounts.  Weekly, we will have a Google Hangout discussing the book with special guests, as well as taking in participant questions while providing prompts for your blog.  The biggest benefit of this course is what you create, so you determine how much you want to create versus how much you consume.  The power of this process is not just in the book, but the ability to share and further your own learning through a global network.

To join here is what you need to do:

  1. Buy a copy of “The Innovator’s Mindset“. We will have a “selfie challenge” coming soon so get your book as soon as you can so you can win a prize for our draw.
  2. Sign up for the course (also listed below).
  3. Get your blog ready to go! (I suggest either edublogs.org or wordpress.com)
  4. Share that you are joining to the #IMMOOC hashtag on Twitter and share this link for others to sign up.
  5. Join the Facebook group.

Once you sign up, you will start getting updates as more information comes out including guests, blog prompts, and google hangout dates.  All of the information will come directly to your email.

We look forward to learning from you and having an awesome experience with new IMMOOC participants, while other IMMOOC alumni join us from the first round!
