How to Become a Participant in the K12 MindShift Our elementary education system is stuck. Results continue to decline. More money is being poured into a system that is obsolete, misaligned and fragmented by special interests. We think its time for a new approach, a new conversation. You have an opportunity to take a look at and join the K12 MindShift. MindShift has become an effective approach to tackling large problems and shifting the conversation. Past initiatives have resulted in two published books, winning the 2009 CoreNet Global Innovator of the Year award and a recognized catalyst for change. Participants have deepened their expertise and elevated their status as thought leaders within their industry and to their constituents. The K12 MindShift aims to break the logjam of challenges that has held back education reform for decades. The heart of the process is made up of four 2-day summits over one year. These summits are developed by a professional event designer to create breakthrough conversations and insights. Our approach uses an Inquiry Based, Project Based and Team Based approach to exploring the constraints within K12 and discovering and proving out new innovations. Participants will visit some of the most progressive learning environments and communities who have succeeded in transformation. These include Sarasota, FL, the East Lake Academy in Atlanta and Columbus, Indiana's coalition building model and the Signature Academy. The network of relationship formed and sustained during the process will provide resources and relationships that can serve in the future. The product will be a book published by Wiley and a national awareness campaign in the fall of 2016. We will also create a website to promote our work and encourage content contribution. The funding model to develop and manage the many members, secure a publisher and synthesize the research into a book is accomplished through sponsorships. The different levels of sponsorship are reflected in the level of recognition in the book and on the website.
