What's "Good"? What's "Bad?" - Visions Worth Working Toward,
or Avoiding
A "Vision Worth Working Toward" is more
than an expectation and less than a prediction.
It must be an inspiring but plausible goal
that participants can work toward and make visible progress
- soon.
"Why Bother?"
and "Visions Worth Working Toward"
(VWWT) by
Steven W. Gilbert, are essays and related Web-based resources
that - in the context of information technology's potential
to be both excuse and means for improving education - help
people:
i)
decide what needs to be transformed and what needs to be
preserved
ii) identify their own most important educational
goals, and
iii) develop shared Visions Worth Working Toward and
institutional missions.
Most institutions benefit from revisiting individual and
institutional goals every few years in response to
recurring pressures to justify investing so much time, money
and effort to take advantage of new, apparently valuable
educational uses of technology. Exemplary
visions are described and activities useful for constructive
discussion and effective collaboration for these purposes
are offered.
