Your company just downsized 10%. Every department was affected, including yours. After handling the “survivors” syndrome, it’s time to get back to work. What is the work going to look like? Did your management team simply downsize? Or did your management team figure out what work is no longer going to get done because the management team determined the work was no longer valuable to the company? The layoff trap For those that survive the ...

A recent survey conducted by a company called Pixmania found that British students increasingly claim that COMPUTER PROBLEMS PREVENTED THEM FROM TURNING IN HOMEWORK. Teachers hear an average of 15 such excuses per week, according to the survey, which makes PCs the top scapegoat. These excuses take the form of 1) my PC crashed after I finished the homework; 2) I accidentally deleted homework after completing it; 3) the Internet was unavailable, so I couldn't ...

بنا به اعلام فرهنگستان زبان و ادب فارسی احتمال میرود منظور رئیس جمهور از چاقو ، چاقو نباشد بلکه ایشان بطور کنائی در کنار عباراتی مثل دماغو ، ریغو ، جیغو ، شپشو ، بوگندو و سایر عبارتهای مشابهی که در نظام اسلامی وجه تسمیه زیاد دارد فرموده باشد چاقو ! به نظر کارشناسان زبان چون ایشان بطور مشخص نفرموده اند منظورشان از چاقو کدام فرد چاق میباشد لذا این احتمال میرود که منظور ایشان ...

Filed under: News John Koller, the director of hardware marketing at Sony, was asked by MTV Multiplayer one of the hot-button questions in this type of economy: is the PS3 recession-proof? Koller, the sly guy that he is, didn't give a direct answer. "Good question, given the reality of how things are from a macro perspective. First off, I want to say that we're very bullish on sales for this holiday season and beyond. In ...

No proper building. Not even an architecture project that would give a hint of what its future headquarters would be like. That didn't prevent El Bòlit, a brand new Contemporary Art Center, from opening its borrowed doors a few weeks ago in Girona. For many Europeans used to fly on the cheap, Girona equals Barcelona or the Costa Brava. Ever since one of the most famous 'no frills' airlines chose the airport as one of ...

With the financial world in turmoil, it’s logical for people to turn attention to other fields that are in need of change. Nothing like a crisis to force introspection that should likely be ongoing. Higher Education is often criticized for its bureaucracy. Now that governments and businesses are in “belt tightening” mode, we’ll see pressure on higher ed as well: Higher Ed: Next Bloated Industry to Go?: “Like so many of our great industries and ...

Hey, let's all be disappointed! Did you hear that President-elect Barack Obama is already a huge sell-out? He's not even going to cut Joe Lieberman's nuts off! (We think it's dumb to give Lieberman subpoena power over the incoming president but whatevs, it's Barry's call.) Now, he's apparently going to let Hillary Clinton be Secretary of State. That is, if you believe The Guardian. The lefty UK paper says the Clinton selection is a done ...

(As you can tell from Kim’s recent post. Systematic change at all levels is on our mind at ISB) How much time to we spend helping our community understand the changing landscape of learning? If we want to change the system, then we need to be prepared to change the whole system. We need to help our school communities understand that this isn’t the learning they had, and it’s not the school they had either. ...
