Learning from SETT

SETT, the Scottish Learning Festival, proved a rich source of ideas for Exc-el. I'm helping support Glow, and was there to start on mentor training. That left plenty time to attend other events. I went for those I thought might help with Exc-el:

• All about Glow G1A

• Ministerial Address Peter Peacock

• Everything is Miscellaneous David Weinberger

• Success and Sustainability; By, With and Across Our Schools - Andy Hargreaves KA
• New Approaches to Engaging Learners Frank Pignatelli
• To Blog or not to Blog? Fiona Andrew
• Web 2.0 (or what was Web 1.0?) Ewan McIntosh
• Turning Good Teachers into Great Leaders Terry Dozier
• Unlocking Creativity: Teaching Creative Thinking and Learning Brian Boyd
• The Powerful Effects of Teaching Thinking Explicitly as a Skill Edward de Bono

I'll do some more posts with thoughts on each.
