Case: Science Department Chair
A teacher was given the responsibility of becoming Science Department Chair. The principal has challenged the teacher to help increase test scores in the area of science as they have been quite low in the past few years. After meeting with the teachers of the science department, the teacher realized that the morale is very low, and that many of the science teachers are teaching multiple subjects, in multiple grade levels, so are stretched very thin. What can the teacher do to raise the morale of the science department teachers, which in turn could improve test scores?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that offering some additional resources to make teaching two subjects easier would be helpful. I have to teach science and social studies this year, and by having some veteran teachers share resources with me has been extremely helpful! I have also been provided with tons of labs to do with students to increase their engage and help me not spend as much time planning for two subjects. |
