As the world changes, how do we educate differently so students, teachers, and staff are empowered to thrive in this environment? In this new book from bestselling author A.J. Juliani, you'll learn a clear process to guide risk-taking and lead change so you can be intentional about innovation in your classroom, school, and life. Juliani shows why we need intentional innovation and how to implement it effectively using the PLASMA framework:

  • What to Praise, Look For, and Assess
  • Support What is Different
  • Make Time for Creative Work
  • Allow for the New and Unknown

You'll also gain insights on celebrating failing and learning, creating conditions for creativity, and leading the change. Whether you are a technology and innovation coach, a teacher, or an administrator, Intentional Innovation will motivate you to take risks, be up to date on the latest research, and manage strong working relationships designed to help students succeed beyond school doors. It's not just about technology for change, but about fostering relationships to motivate, inspire, and challenge us to step out and lead in a future that is exciting and unknown.

Industry Reviews

"If we are to empower students to be the next generation of effective leaders, problem solvers, critical thinkers, and doers, we cannot leave their future to chance; we must create authentic, real-world learning experiences for all students through intentional innovation. In his latest book, Juliani shares PLASMA, a brilliant new framework, so that educators can lead the needed change in their schools and classrooms. Intentional Innovation is both visionary and practical, and is ultimately an incredible tool to support educators in developing the learning experiences today's students need to thrive in tomorrow's world."--Thomas C. Murray, Director of Innovation, Future Ready Schools, Washington, D.C., and Author of Learning Transformed: 8 Keys to Designing Tomorrow's Schools, Today

"Intentional Innovation is a powerful starting point for both the why and how of impacting meaningful change. Be prepared to unlearn whatever you think you know about innovation. The book sheds a spotlight on what it means to have 'new ideas that work' and left me eager to share what I read with others as soon as possible." --Clint R. Heitz, Instructional Coach, Bettendorf Community Schools, IA
