  1. Hello, my name is Isabella Bartman.
  2. And for book circle number one, I will be covering
  3. chapters 1, 36 of the innovators mindset.
  4. The image to the side shows innovation in itself.
  5. It's changing, moving around and having ideas to become successful
  6. in the outcome that you're wanting to achieve.
  7. Yeah. In Chapter one, we discussed what innovation is and
  8. what it isn't.
  9. When learning about this, we understood that it was key
  10. to learn how to manage change, whether change in any
  11. daily task or just change in life.
  12. Learning how to manage that is key to success.
  13. We also talked about including innovative leadership.
  14. So for those people that are in a leadership position,
  15. learning how to innovate and create others ideas into the
  16. outcome. We also talked about how understanding our surroundings is
  17. very important as anything that's going on around you is
  18. going to affect or impact what you are partaking in
  19. on the inside.
  20. We also talked about looking at both sides of possible
  21. outcomes just because you can be innovative and it's what
  22. the book is suggesting doing doesn't mean that every innovative
  23. idea will have a positive outcome.
  24. You have to weigh the pros and cons of any
  25. given situation.
  26. In Chapter two, we talked about the innovators mindset in
  27. general. This was built upon the foundation of education and
  28. looking at the history of previous education and how it
  29. impacted where we are now.
  30. We also had appealing benefits of innovation because it plays
  31. with that growth first, fixed mindset and allows creativity to
  32. grow out of any student or any persons individual mind
  33. and their ideas.
  34. We also learned about creating innovative ideas, how it might
  35. be hard to go outside the box with any idea,
  36. but that's staying in your comfort zone won't get you
  37. the ultimate success that you can truly grow and develop
  38. into. As we climb this ladder, We see that Chapter
  39. three, we talked about the characteristics of what an innovator's
  40. mindset is.
  41. So first we have to understand that technology is a
  42. big part of having an innovative mindset and that as
  43. technology is growing and making advancements, our ideas and innovations
  44. also have to grow and make advancements.
  45. We also have to understand that sometimes whether it be
  46. your workplace or school environment, there are constraints and rules
  47. that you have to follow.
  48. But learning to blossom and grow outside of those rules
  49. and constraints while still following them is something that is
  50. key to providing the entire learning experience to a student.
  51. There were eight main characteristics of the innovators mindset, learning
  52. to be empathetic problem finders, risk takers, networked, observant creators,
  53. resilient and reflective.
  54. These are all the eight things that make up what
  55. an innovator is.
  56. They feel emotions, they can solve problems while taking risks.
  57. They can network with their environment.
  58. They can observe what's going on.
  59. They can create their idea.
  60. They can be resilient against all of the concerns that
  61. are coming towards them and then they can reflect on
  62. how they can grow in the future.
  63. In Chapter four, we talked about relationships, relationships, relationships, environmental
  64. changes and things around you are huge into what comes
  65. into play with the innovators mindset.
  66. But the importance of relationships is ultimately what has the
  67. biggest impact.
  68. Understanding personal interests of your peers around you is key.
  69. And then using those personal interest in applying them to
  70. the abilities that they are doing is what allows the
  71. relationships to build even more and the idea is to
  72. become flowing at an even faster rate.
  73. Creating changes.
  74. Okay, change doesn't have to be bad.
  75. Change also needs to make sure that there's not procrastination
  76. like we talked about in Chapter one but creating change
  77. based on personal interests and abilities is always a key
  78. to success.
  79. Mm hmm.
  80. In Chapter five We talked about learning to lead innovatively,
  81. which means basically understanding and creating learning environments that promote
  82. innovative growth.
  83. Learning how to be present, understanding what areas in your
  84. life need growth or that you can continue to work
  85. on and finding that balance between growing and staying, Maintaining
  86. a positive, innovative leadership is also key.
  87. Like we talked about in Chapter two, if you are
  88. going to be an innovative leader, you have to look
  89. and allow for innovativeness to happen in your classroom with
  90. your students.
  91. But Mhm And finally we have to engage versus in
  92. power is what our last chapter of the half of
  93. the book talked about.
  94. It's finding the balance between content and curriculum while also
  95. maintaining passion and looking on the future of your students.
  96. You want them to gain the knowledge that you need
  97. to teach them, but you want them to find passion
  98. in what they want to do in their future aspirations.
  99. We also want to focus on future learning we are
  100. building from past education, we don't stay frozen and stagnant.
  101. We bloom and blossom and grow into future learning because
  102. people stood up and created past educational opportunities.
  103. We also have to understand how school and learning that
  104. does not have the same meaning or intention.
  105. People go to school.
  106. School is a time school has classes, learning is engagement.
  107. Learning is providing an innovative opportunity for your students to
  108. learn while they're in those classes in the school building.
  109. But just because you're going to school does not mean
  110. that you're learning.
  111. You have to create learning through having that innovative mindset.
  112. I hope that you are able to learn something from
  113. this and see why I chose this picture for the
  114. front cover, because you have to grow and change and
  115. provide opportunities for creativity to have the ultimate success otherwise
  116. known as the innovators mindset.
  117. Thank you.
