MINDFRAMES FOR LEADERS FROM A DISTANCE
1. I am an evaluator of my impact on teacher and student learning.
2. I see assessment as informing my impact and next steps.
3. I collaborate with my peers and my teachers about my conceptions of progress and my impact.
4. I am a change agent and I believe all teachers and students can improve.
5. I strive for challenge rather than merely doing my best.
6. I give and help students and teachers understand feedback and I interpret and act on feedback given to me.
7. I engage as much in dialogue as in monologue.
8. I explicitly inform teachers and students what successful impact looks like from the outset.
9. I build relationships and trust so that learning can occur in a place where it is safe to make mistakes and learn from others.
10. I focus on learning and the language of learning.
