Some teachers are resistant to change and negative about the CHAI curriculum. How can I bring them on board?
Change can be difficult and anxiety-provoking. What do you think are the issues behind a given teacher’s reluctance? If it’s about having to give up a beloved project or lesson, help the teacher see how they might be integrated into CHAI. If it’s about the use of new methodologies, analyze their use and the benefits they offer. Empower the teacher to make choices and to make CHAI their own. Encourage the teacher to subscribe to CHAIhelp list serve – a conversation for teachers using CHAI. Make sure you’re offering the training and support teachers need to make the change.
