Simon Sinek, How great leaders inspire
action.
“Whether they’re individuals or
organizations, we follow those who
lead, not because we have to, but
because we want to. We follow those
who lead, not for them, but for
ourselves. And it’s those who start
with “why” that have the ability to
inspire those around them or find
others who inspire them.” Simon Sinek

35. Belmont High School
Innovative Teaching Initiative
• Providing students with iPads in a one-to-one model creates
opportunities to improve students’ 21st century skills for critical
thinking, collaboration, data gathering and analysis, oral and written
communication, and technological competence, among others…
• The one-to-one model provides students with greatly increased
opportunities to practice and provides teachers with multiple
opportunities over the course of the year to assess students.
Specifically, we anticipate students will become more engaged and
capable in research, creative projects, argumentation,
demonstration, summaries, and other artifacts that grant evidence
of growth of knowledge and skills.
