Case: Competitive Principal
At Mary's school, her principal constantly focuses on teacher competition. When teachers give benchmark tests, the principal creates a giant chart for display in the teacher work room. This chart, although names are removed, includes how teachers did in the different subgroups (gifted, white, black, low socio-economic status, students with disabilities, etc.) Do you think it is smart for this principal to encourage teachers competing against one another? Is this encouraging teachers to do better or encouraging them to be more independent and against sharing ideas and resources?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I do not think this is a good idea. I think that more than anything this fosters a negative work environment where teachers most definitely become competitive, because they want to be viewed as "the best." I think that this is one way to discourage team building and sharing strategies. |

| Comments: I have been in environments where this sort of mindset was in place and instead of creating a welcoming, family-like environment, it only caused people to begin disliking their peers because of their success or see others as lesser than the people doing well. |

| Comments: I agree I don't believe having a chart in the conference comparing teacher performance is appropriate. This creates the opposite of a collaborative and cooperative learning environment. |
