Instructional Technology Coaches
The greatest heroes of ancient times exhibited two qualities---Fortitudo and Sapientia.Fortitudo demonstrated courage of the body, the willingness to place the physical being in danger for a good cause. Sapientia was courage of the word or wisdom. (Think Odysseus of The Iliad and The Odyssey). Warriors not only had to perform the deed---they had to **return to their campfire or tent or wigwam or lodge and announce the deed**. It was not considered bragging. It was part of their community identity. “This is who I am.”
 * “I Beowulf slayed the dragon.”
 * “I Hercules cleaned the Augean stables in a day.”
 * “I Crazy Horse counted 7 coup.”



We cannot possibly get all of who you are on a wiki, but we think it would be a nice legacy if : 1) you placed on the wiki one accomplishment associated with your role as CFF coach that you are particularly proud of or if 2) you placed a belief statement (“I believe that if we redefine the problem of teaching and learning, we can develop better schools to prepare our students to be global citizens.”)

It does not have to be sparkling prose or a grandiose deed---the great deeds are conducted in every day interactions. It simply has to be honest. Wouldn’t it be nice collectively to see part of what we have done? So go ahead. Stand up in the middle of the Longhouse and tell the world what you did or what you believe.
