Learning2 is a professional development conference run by international school teachers for international school teachers. It is an “innovative, engaging and constantly evolving face-to-face conference with a focus on leveraging technology to support learning globally,” and it is considered to be one of the leading annual technology conferences held in over four continents.

Their upcoming conference in Manilla (October 2015) titled: DISRUPT – RETHINK – CHANGE started with some interesting provocations which could be used just for school-wide professional development or just individually by educators to be reflective about their teaching thoughts and practices.

• If you were starting a school from scratch, what are two things you would insist on?

• In education… what would you die to keep and kill to change?

• Have you seen Sir Ken Robinson’s “Do schools kill creativity TED Talk?”. Has anything changed since then?

• What traditional moulds are holding education back?

• How does the school experience need to change for students?

• What untapped power could schools have and how could they get it?

• What is one idea that could create major change?
  

• What is one new system that could create change?

• Who are the people that can create change and how do we get the best out of them?
