Are you willing to change? (Class 5304)

After watching the Three myths of behavior change and realizing that all along that common sense actually does not contribute to anything. Common sense makes no sense at all and matter of fact its rather confusing trying to make it make sense you will definitely be confused while being trapped in a fixed mindset. In order to get out of a fixed mindset you have to be willing to make sacrifices to help you make those changes by stepping outside the box. Not doing the expected but the unexpected giving others information that will inspire them to want to do better, keeping them motivated in the process, be able to give them real life experiences that maybe they can connect with that brings value to why change is needed. Then we can get better results when it comes to making change with Social Interaction on a positive level.

When it comes to my innovation plan and getting the leaders in my school district to try implementing Blended Learning into our now curriculum most likely will be a challenge but with the help of the 6 sources of influences can be a great start to changing the system and them as well. First beginning with the self...during this pandemic we as people have been faced with so much life and death situations that some of us don't know if we are coming or going but with the 6 sources of influences it will help build back personal ability/motivation, social ability/motivation and structural ability/motivation which are all the things that are needed to help promote change in not only the self but the things around you which will eventually promote change in the educational system.
