”New ways of working”
Innovation, new offerings, continuous

Two kinds of value creationYou want balance between routine value creation and explorative value creation
That is when productivity is maximized in an ever changing world

Assessment challenges in today’s schools“…a focus on rigorous experiments evaluating
replicable programs and practices is essential
to build confidence in educational research
among policymakers and educators.”Slavin, 2002, “Evidence-Based Education
Policies: Transforming Educational Practice and Research
“The danger here is that we end up valuing what is
measured, rather than that we engage in
measurement of what we value..”Biesta, 2009, “Good education in an age of measurement:
on the need to reconnect with the question of purpose in education”
“…increased globalization gives us no
alternative to focusing on increasing efficiency
through testing, accountability, and choice. …
Standardized testing will increase educational
opportunity and ensure greater assessment
objectivity than teachers provide”Hursh, 2007, “Assessing No Child Left Behind
and the rise of neoliberal education policies”
“the new Pisa regime, with its continuous cycle of
global testing, harms our children and impoverishes
our classrooms, as it inevitably involves more and
longer batteries of multiple-choice testing, more
scripted "vendor"-made lessons, and less autonomy
for teachers.Letter from 100 educational academics to OECD,
calling to cancel next round of PISA tests
“Pisa enriches [education] because it
encourages countries to look at ideas from
around the world.”Andreas Schleicher, head of Pisa
“The complexities of learning and fundamental
pedagogies are being lost in preference for an over-
reliance on data systems that are based on a
shallow and narrow set of standardised measures.”Robinson, 2011, “Diluting education? An ethnographic
study of change in an Australian Ministry of Education”

Traditional pedagogy
Value creation as pedagogy defined- At the crossroads between multiple dualisms
Progressive pedagogy
SimplicityA simple task: Create value to someone outside class based on some
content knowledge of your choice from your education.Complexity
IndividualIf it became valuable for one (1) individual, you have succeeded. If you tried to create value but failed you have also succeeded.
Social
Content
A well described theory-grounded toolbox that makes the iterative process of value creation manageable and teachable as content
Reconnect to theoretical content throughout the process.
Process
DetachedBoth success and failure to create value will trigger reflection.
Each iteration of effectuation starts with self-reflection questions.Attached
Theory
Start the value creation process in some theoretical domain, ask ”for whom can what I know / learned be valuable / rewarding, today?”
End the process in the same theoretical domain and see what knowledge showed to be valuable, see content vs process above.

Simplifying

A teachable logic for value creation, based on
how experienced
entrepreneurs create
value
A set of 14 rules for how to
validate value creation hypotheses, relying on
extensive target group
interactions
A set of principles that can
simplify the complex task
of driving change by
triggering human action,
imagination and creativity
A practice for how to
create meaningful novel human artifacts through idea generation,
prototyping and testing
Individualizing
the social
Four individually phrased
questions are posed at the
outset of each iteration in
the effectuation cycle
Emphasizes first-hand
feedback from real people
iteratively collected by the
people running the project
Specifies basic sets of
questions that individuals
can use to navigate a wide
variety of social contexts
Outlines a designerly
attitude of individuals
embracing problems
and disagreement as
sources of creativity
Reifying
the process
A reification of an
uncertain value creation
process of embracing
surprises
A reification of the iterative
and fail-prone process of
honing a value proposition
to external stakeholders
A reification of a change
process involving many
people and building on
their past successes
A reification of the
complex design process
into replicable multi-step
models (3 to 6 steps)
Detaching
the attached
Four self-focused
questions starting each
cycle, promoting individual
reflection and detachment
Emphasizes detached
design of experiments that
can then be carried out in
the all-engaging real world
Outlines a repeatable and
teachable process for
triggering positive
emotions and engagement
Contains useful tools to
distinguish what is (i.e.
knowledge) from what
might be (i.e. concepts)
Bridging
Theory and

The initial ”What do I
know” question connects
theory to practice, allowing
for curriculum linkages
Links theory with practice
by emphasizing iterative
formulation of hypotheses
that are tested in practice
Turns inert knowledge into
meaning-laden stories of
past and future success
and practical adequacy

1. BOOKS ARE ONLY HYPOTHESES, SO GET OUTSIDE THE BUILDING AND
TEST THEM AGAINST REALITY
2. TRUE LEARNING OCCURS WHEN PAIRING INERT KNOWLEDGE WITH
REAL-WORLD USEFULNESS
3. FAILURE TO CREATE VALUE TO EXTERNAL PEOPLE IS AS VALUABLE FOR LEARNING AS SUCCESS TO CREATE VALUE
4. MAKE CONTINUOUS ITERATIONS AND PIVOTS
5. NO CLASSROOM-BASED PROJECT PLAN SURVIVES FIRST CONTACT WITH
REAL WORLD, SO SKETCH YOUR HYPOTHESES FAST & TRY THEM OUT
6. DESIGN EXPERIMENTS AND TESTS TO VALIDATE YOUR HYPOTHESES
7. AGREE ON WHO YOU WANT TO CREATE VALUE TO, IT CHANGES EVERYTHING
VALUE CREATION PEDAGOGY MANIFESTO
8. TEACHER ASSESSMENT OF VALUE CREATION
PEDAGOGY IS DIFFERENT FROM TRADITIONAL ASSESSMENT
9. FAST DECISION MAKING, CYCLE TIME, SPEED AND TEMPO
10. LEARNING IS A LOT ABOUT PASSION
11. IN VALUE CREATION PEDAGOGY, ALL STUDENTS ARE EQUALLY
RESPONSIBLE FOR INTERACTING WITH THE OUTSIDE WORLD
12 LACK OF RESOURCES CAN BE COMPENSATED BY GROUP
INNOVATIVENESS AND BEGGING FOR OUTSIDE HELP
13. COMMUNICATE AND SHARE LEARNING
14. VALUE CREATION PEDAGOGY BEGINS WITH BUY-IN FROM OUTSIDE STAKEHOLDERS
