Re: What would you do with a one year sabbatical?

Great question....
I love visiting other schools as a way of gathering good ideas, so I'd
probably use the year to travel and talk to other educators. I specifically
would want to visit schools with great design, creative academic programs
that leverage technology, and/or effective professional learning
communities. I'd also be interested in visiting schools that are known for
having particularly visionary leadership. Maybe I would interview various
people and podcast these interviews, so that others could learn along the
way, too.
