Student Reflections and comments
ISAS- Independent Schools Association of the Southwest - is comprised of 85 schools in 6 states, and including one school in Mexico City. We are a regional association and part of NAIS—National Association of Independent Schools. The primary responsibility of ISAS is school accreditation; however, we also provide numerous professional development opportunities for our member schools throughout the year.When a group of our Technology Directors joined forces and initiated the idea of participating in the TEDxYouth Day, we were pleased to serve as a support and framework or context for their efforts.The participating schools that are pictured here are the ones who did the work under the guidance and direction of their individual technology directors. They are the ones who made this pilot project so successful. We chose to brand our group TEDxYouth ISAS in order to identify our community of schools and also to serve as a model for other associations who might choose to participate in the future thereby providing their students to perform on a global stage.We are pleased to be able to continue to provide support and do a better job this second year with marketing and publicity. TEDx will be featured on our website in a more visible and user-friendly manner, rather than buried in our calendar pages. We have time to do things a bit differently this year and we also know more about what we are actually doing. . .both are helpful in moving forward.As an Association, we are quite proud of the work our Technology Directors have done to make TEDxYouthISAS such a success and are thrilled to continue our support. The amount of time and the selfless amount of energy this group is willing to lend this project is such a testament to their professionalism and dedication to what is best in 21st century education.
