hange is the new constant -the new status quo.Yet, while we thrive on technological advances, we worry that our social systems can't keep pace with the accelerating rate of change.We have witnessed the rise and collapse of businesses and organizations, large and small, unable to evolve quickly enough to avoid extinction, and wonder how could that happen.We can't imagine living without iPods, Internet, and cell phones, yet we still reminisce about the good old days.But that was then.This is now.More than ever, improvements in technology and changes in social infrastructures require that all organizations, whether they operate for profit or not for profit, implement thoughtful improvements in how they provide services or create products.Public schools aren't exempt.For educators, this means identifying more efficient and effective approaches to helping all students learn.
