Case: Teacher Leaders
As a teacher leader, how would you convince other teachers, specifically in middle grade mathematics, to adapt their teaching strategies to incorporate more small group instruction and collaborative work? You have tried doing professional development through curriculum meetings but still notice that teachers are not implementing these best practices in their classrooms. So far, administration has not provided much support in enforcing change. What else could you try?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think the teachers must see value in small group instruction and collaborative work strategies. If they haven't found the value in these strategies through professional development, it might be beneficial for them to see other teachers in action that use them. Then having a discussion on the pros and cons regarding the use of the methods. Having this discussions will provide you insight for why they aren't using them. Is it because they think it will take too much planning time to make the methods effective? Or is it because they think what they are doing is better? Simply having the conversation might allow you to determine which direction to take and what the next steps are. |
