Educators! Contribute to the Big Ideas for Education website.

The project will have four phases:

Phase 1
1. Think about the basic priority actions that might be taken by a new Department of Education that would promote shifts in education that are relevant to today´s students and their future. Scroll down to see statements that have already been posted.
2. Compose a statement that succinctly describes that action using no more than 140 characters. Be clear and to the point.
3. Type or paste your statement in the textbox to the left, no more than 140 characters.
4. Type your name and click [Submit]

Phase 2
The submitted statements will be linked together according to topic, reducing the final list to no more than twenty basic action statements — if possible.

Phase 3
The final action statements, along with their associated statements will be published here, with a request that education bloggers and microbloggers share their insights about their favorite statements, tagging their bloggs appropriatedly.

Phase 4
A Facility will be added that enables us to prioritize the action statements in order of importance and sequence. Comments will be collected.

I’m very curious to see the final action statements …
