The primary aim of education is not to enable students to do well in school, but to help them do well in the lives they lead outside of school.

Making a better “20th Century School”
is not the answer.

We are getting better at things that do not matter
as much anymore.
![Page 7: Best to Next Practices - Challenges in Education Raymond J. McNulty, President @ray_mcnulty](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081414/55145b87550346b0158b4632/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Unless we unlearn some of our
traditional practices, we will never get
beyond an improvement
mindset.

First Different - Then Better

“The future is not some place
we are going to, but one we are creating.
The paths are not found, but made, and the activity of
making them changes both the maker and the
destination.”--John Schaar

I believe the future is not about the latest gadgets,
it is about something more than gadgets, it’s
about …LEARNING

The Adult Learning Year!
2011

Systems are challenged today like never before.
The key challenge that we face
is results.
![Page 13: Best to Next Practices - Challenges in Education Raymond J. McNulty, President @ray_mcnulty](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081414/55145b87550346b0158b4632/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
In an environment driven by results, the best
strategy is to “DEVELOP YOUR PEOPLE.”
Broaden the definition of learning in your system to include adults.
![Page 14: Best to Next Practices - Challenges in Education Raymond J. McNulty, President @ray_mcnulty](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081414/55145b87550346b0158b4632/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The focus must be on the way we work.
• Cooperation is what was valued in the past. It is about efficiency: “You do this and I will do that.”
• Collaboration is where we should focus. It is about shared creation, in which the focus is not on the process but on the specific results.

WE need to become the AGENTS of change.

Many people -- both inside and outside of education – seem to be afraid (generally) of three things:
• The Future• Technology• Social Skills

Best practices allow you to do what you are
currently doing a little better.
Next practices increase your organization’s capability
to do things it has never done before.

Expertise (“the way we do things around here”) can be a road block to problem solving
and to the development of Next Practices.

embrace “sustaining
innovations” but struggle with “disruptive
innovations.”

“In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities; in the

then policy.

The Fundamental Attribution Error
When looking at our own behavior, we tend to view the situation in the environment that surrounds our action.
When looking at the behavior of others, we make assumptions about their personal qualities.

Social Skills1. We are very good at content skills,
rules, regulations, strategies. We are terrible at discussing and coaching on social skills.

understanding social skills, but are void in recognizing their value when making policy.

3 Mis-Conceptions on Rigor
• That rigor means ‘ more’
• Raising a grade is not ‘rigor’
• Being stricter and enforcing tighter policies

Why it is so hard to change?
![Page 83: Best to Next Practices - Challenges in Education Raymond J. McNulty, President @ray_mcnulty](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081414/55145b87550346b0158b4632/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
Why is it so hard to change?
• The more successful a system is, the more difficult it is to recognize when it must change. By example, market leaders are the last ones to transform.
• The American Education System, “The market leader during the industrial era!”

Mental Locks
• We don’t need to be creative for most of what we do (driving, shopping, business of living). So staying on routine thought paths enables us to do many things without having to think about it.
• Our training in school has taught us that there is one right answer.
