  1. Determinants for Success of Educational Innovation Projects A Study of “SURF Education” Projects in the Netherlands

  2. The road to sustainable educational innovation

  3. Catch a wave, you’ll be sittin’ on top of the world • Problem High investment - Low return • Wish Anticipate / predict success and failure at funding • Goals Why are successful projects successful? How to optimize success and minimize failure?

  4. Go little Honda • Review literature – identify success / failure factors • Analyze project documentation – find new factors / validate literature review • Expert interview and concept mapping – identify new factors/ evaluate / weigh • Change

  5. 1st gear: Review literature • Success and failure factors in phases: • Initiation • Implementation • Institutionalization

  6. 1st gear: Review literature • Success and failure factors in phases: • Initiation • Implementation • Institutionalization • Tools for phases: • Proposal Check • Health Check • Sustainability Check

  7. Eye openers • Change levels: One step at a time

  8. Eye openers • Change levels: One step at a time • Critical mass: Small is beautiful

  9. Eye openers • Change levels: One step at a time • Critical mass: Small is beautiful • Know your enemies and make them allies

  10. Eye openers • Change levels: One step at a time • Critical mass: Small is beautiful • Know your enemies and make them allies • Organizational management≠ Project management •  • Organizational managers ≠ Innovation managers

  11. Eye openers • Change levels: One step at a time • Critical mass: Small is beautiful • Know your enemies and make them allies • Organizational management≠ Project management •  • Organizational managers ≠ Innovation managers • Assuring success ≠ Avoiding failure

  12. 2nd gear: Analyze project documents • Eight projects in-depth • Project selection • Categorization: Tool • Labeling: good, intermediate, poor • Selection: four best / four worst

  13. Project Classification Tool

  14. Project Classification Tool

  15. 2nd gear: Analyze project documents • Eight projects in-depth • Project selection • Categorization: Tool • Labeling: good, intermediate, poor • Selection: four best / four worst • Document analysis • Project proposal / project plan • Midterm review(s) • End review

  16. 3rd gear: Consult experts • In-depth interviews, N = 8 • Project chairs / critical partners • Case studies of success and failure • Expert concept mapping and rating, N = 8 • Business, government, science, education • Generation of ideas • Ranking

  17. Expert Concept Mapping Method for Defining the Characteristics of Adaptive E-Learning: ALFANET Project Case Slavi Stoyanov Paul Kirschner Volume 52, Number 2, 2004 http://www.aect.org/pdf/etr&d/5202/5202-03.pdf

  18. Faster, it’s all right: To the future • Tools • Checklists for proposal, process, sustainability

  19. Faster, it’s all right: To the future • Tools • Checklists for proposal, process, sustainability • Procedures • Plan: Including implementation • Presentation: Add a defense • Segmentation: Mid-term go / no go

  20. Faster, it’s all right: To the future • Tools • Checklists for proposal, process, sustainability • Procedures • Plan: Including implementation • Presentation: Add a defense • Segmentation: Mid-term go / no go • Training • Tendering, Management, Conferences

  21. Innovation: An organic view • All systems strive towards stability

  22. Innovation: An organic view • All systems strive towards stability • An organism is a system made up of subsystems

  23. Innovation: An organic view • All systems strive towards stability • An organism is a system made up of subsystems • Stability is not static, but dynamic and adaptive

  24. Innovation: An organic view • All systems strive towards stability • An organism is a system made up of subsystems • Stability is not static, but dynamic and adaptive • An educational system must be dynamic

  25. Innovation: An organic view • All systems strive towards stability • An organism is a system made up of subsystems • Stability is not static, but dynamic and adaptive • An educational system must be dynamic • An organism that cannot adapt will die out

  26. Innovation: An organic view • All systems strive towards stability • An organism is a system made up of subsystems • Stability is not static, but dynamic and adaptive • An educational system must be dynamic • An organism that cannot adapt will die out • What does this mean for innovation?
