Good evening, and welcome to #EdChatME! This week’s topic: “Resistance to Change.

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:31 PM EDT

Lets start with some introductions: who you are, where you work, what you do, etc. AND: how do YOU feel about change? #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:31 PM EDT

I'm Matt- Dir of CIA for @AOS94ME, & I'll be mod-ing tonight's chat #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:32 PM EDT

For tonight’s discussion, we’ll be using the Q1/A1 format. Lurkers are welcome, but please jump in! We’d love to hear your voice! #edchatme

jbailey8 Oct 3 @ 8:32 PM EDT

Jeff Bailey, HS Technology Teacher in Rumford. Change is fine, as long as it happens to someone else (sarcasm) #edchatME

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:32 PM EDT

Change is the only constant in life. Gotta learn to love it! #edchatme

MsMeservey Oct 3 @ 8:32 PM EDT

Jessica, 6th grade in Lincoln, Maine. Excited, but nervous. Concerned about how it might go/be received. #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:33 PM EDT

Q1) Coming up in 1 minute. Let’s get rolling! #edchatme

FrazierTeacher Oct 3 @ 8:33 PM EDT

Hello, #EDChatME Tara from Veazie here. Middle School SPED and a bit of everything else. Not a fan of change at first but...OK in the end

nataleestotz Oct 3 @ 8:33 PM EDT

Natalee, Head of HS & Humanities teacher at Windham Christian. I embrace change in a big bear hug! #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:33 PM EDT

@MsMeservey I hear you. Especially with so many unpredictable unknowns... it can be scary! #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:34 PM EDT

Q1) 1st level of resistance: “I don’t get it.” What does this mean? How does this look? Give an example. #edchatme https://t.co/LSLIazrF04

johannaprince Oct 3 @ 8:34 PM EDT

Hi #edchatme, Jo in #highered, love change, move furniture often:) just to see if better, w/ change we can see what works, and design better

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:34 PM EDT

@FrazierTeacher Wassssssssup! #edchatme

msroundstweets Oct 3 @ 8:34 PM EDT

Megh from Gorham MS. Sixth grade LA and SS. Easily a love/hate relationship with change. #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:35 PM EDT

ICYMI- tonight's chat is based on a framework/model fr/ @rickmaurer2. Check out his work, folks!!! #edchatme

jbailey8 Oct 3 @ 8:35 PM EDT

A1: Lack of exposure to the overall concept or the process/details to get there. "What are Guiding Principles again?" #edchatME

MsMeservey Oct 3 @ 8:35 PM EDT

A1: Critical Thinking. How do I manage to get the 4Cs in my classroom, but still cover content. I know they are important but AH! #edchatme

MichaelisMath - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:36 PM EDT

Hi #EdChatME! Jennifer Michaelis, H.S. Math. Everyone who know me knows I seek out change & then cry a whole lot 'til it feels normal again!

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:36 PM EDT

@FrazierTeacher just short of flipping fantastic!!! #edchatme

FrazierTeacher Oct 3 @ 8:36 PM EDT

A1) Why are we changing to Standards? How will my kid get into (preferred school)? #EDChatME

jessicawrd3 Oct 3 @ 8:36 PM EDT

Good Monday Eve! I am the Principal Madison High School and I welcome change! #edchatme

nataleestotz Oct 3 @ 8:36 PM EDT

A1: No frame work to fit it into. "We've never done it like that before." #edchatme

msroundstweets Oct 3 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1: I don't get it = help me understand. Ss say it all the time, and my quick reaction is always 'let's figure it out together' #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1) To me this is about learning a new skill, and synapsis just haven't fired yet #edchatme

MsMeservey Oct 3 @ 8:37 PM EDT

@FrazierTeacher What do you mean by moving to standards? You have no standards??? #edchatme

jbailey8 Oct 3 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1: Lack of understanding is OK, lack of willingness to try to understand cannot have a place in Prof. work. #edchatME

johannaprince Oct 3 @ 8:37 PM EDT

A1) Often when others don't see a problem = no need to change = resistence #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:37 PM EDT

Q1 again: #edchatme https://t.co/Wp4m8331Sg

MichaelisMath - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A1: Sometimes "I don't get it" is not seeing the concept. Sometimes, it's someone who gave it a lot of thought & truly got stuck. #edchatme

MsMeservey Oct 3 @ 8:38 PM EDT

Truth. Words to live by. #edchatme https://t.co/SKhRP8auBx

#edchatme Bob, MS Principal in Gorham. Joining for a bit tonight, been a long weekend, and not in a fun way!

nataleestotz Oct 3 @ 8:38 PM EDT

A1: What don't you get? Always try to get them to be more specific about what don't they understand. Ss, Ts, & Ps! #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:38 PM EDT

@FrazierTeacher is this a quote? Tell us more! #edchatme

A1) Admitting that what we are currently doing may not be the "right" thing...hard to own that...#edchatME

nataleestotz Oct 3 @ 8:39 PM EDT

@FrazierTeacher True for Ss, Ts, & Ps for all manner of things! #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:40 PM EDT

@jbailey8 agree. But I think this gets to another layer of resistance that is more than "I don't get it" #edchatme

l_gerhard17 Oct 3 @ 8:40 PM EDT

@msroundstweets some Ss are quick to give up & I love being able to sit down w/ them and help them figure it out #edchatme #UNEedu

MsMeservey Oct 3 @ 8:40 PM EDT

@jessicawrd3 So true. Sometimes we love one activity, so we don't see that there is a better way to do it. #edchatme

@nataleestotz @MsMeservey @jessicawrd3 I love me some sacred cow tipping!! #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:42 PM EDT

A1) This stage of resistance is an easy fix: ppl want to know, but don't. Logic/reason/rationale take over here FTW. #edchatme

MsMeservey Oct 3 @ 8:43 PM EDT

A2) Invite them into classrooms to see it modeled, give them the support they need. Don't expect them to get it over night. #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:44 PM EDT

Remember: HMW = "How Might We" #edchatme

nataleestotz Oct 3 @ 8:44 PM EDT

A2: Sometimes just takes a little clarification & they come around. Get buy-in & ownership. #edchatme

MichaelisMath - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2: I'm a big giant fan of modeling. Someone who can say without pressure "I'm doing this & it's working this way..." Convo time! #edchatme

briley8557 Oct 3 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A1 #edchatme There are so many possible causes of the "I don't get it", boredom, disengagement, relationships, fear of being wrong.

jbailey8 Oct 3 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2: Study groups, school visits, professional readings, teacher led PD, KWL chart for staff #edchatME

jessicawrd3 Oct 3 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2) I agree @MsMeservey, modeling, coaching, observing, collaborating, discussing, relating #edchatME

tedlund1 Oct 3 @ 8:45 PM EDT

PPL need to feel like they are part of the change #edchatME

FrazierTeacher Oct 3 @ 8:45 PM EDT

A2) Start from where you agree. State the core values and allow for room for differences. Don't strip people's gears. #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A2) Start with empathy. Listen to the needs; help them address them. Create an environment/culture of empathy. #edchatme

msroundstweets Oct 3 @ 8:46 PM EDT

A2: Create safe spaces, one:one, judgment free where questions can be asked, research done together, remind about common goals #edchatme

jessicawrd3 Oct 3 @ 8:47 PM EDT

A2) In addition working to develop growth mindset with Ts, help them to understand it doesn't have to be perfect the first time..#edchatME

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:47 PM EDT

@briley8557 agree! It's hard to determine causality in these cases. In fact, do we need to? Is causality important to change? #edchatme

tedlund1 Oct 3 @ 8:47 PM EDT

Also ID bottom line beliefs #edchatME

MsMeservey Oct 3 @ 8:48 PM EDT

A2: Let ts decide what they need more PD on rather than telling them & having them sit through something they all ready know. #edchatme

johannaprince Oct 3 @ 8:48 PM EDT

A2 - Begin with better questions rather than answers/solutions https://t.co/5DjoGCosEI #edchatme

@msroundstweets great ideas! How might we build a culture if this? #edchatme

So stage 1: "I don't get it." Stage 2: "I don't like it." Via @rickmaurer2 #edchatme

FrazierTeacher Oct 3 @ 8:54 PM EDT

A3) I don't like it often = This feels hard. I'm scared I will fail. #edchatme

msroundstweets Oct 3 @ 8:54 PM EDT

A3: I don't like it = it's different, new, challenging, too much work, I still don't understand, etc. #edchatme

MsMeservey Oct 3 @ 8:54 PM EDT

A3: cont...you need time to get something and grow to understand and like. Can't be done overnight. #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 8:55 PM EDT

A3) I think "i don't like it" Is about history, experience, and fear more than anything else. #edchatme

jbailey8 Oct 3 @ 8:56 PM EDT

A3: Ts feel change = condemnation of their current practice. Ask what's good with what we do AND honest about what doesn't work. #edchatME

A3: When we add new "initiatives" have to be honest about time it takes. What can we take off the plate instead? #edchatME

FrazierTeacher Oct 3 @ 8:58 PM EDT

@jbailey8 so true! Change means we were wrong vs. meaning there is a better way to do it. #edchatME

Q4: What can agree might work? See it in action in another classroom, or visit another school. Testimonials from Ts Ss Ps #edchatME

jessicawrd3 Oct 3 @ 9:03 PM EDT

A4) I like the idea of discussing failures and success, also asking for Ss perspectives #edchatme

msroundstweets Oct 3 @ 9:04 PM EDT

A4: Can admin differentiate how we teach Ts about the change? #edchatme

jbailey8 Oct 3 @ 9:04 PM EDT

A4: Maybe ask the Ss what is working for them and what isn't. Maybe the change is trying to better serve them #edchatME

FrazierTeacher Oct 3 @ 9:05 PM EDT

If you fail while moving ahead, you are still ahead of where you were. #edchatME

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 9:05 PM EDT

A4) again: empathy. Understand the needs of those resisting; see fr their shies. Then design solutions TOGETHER #edchatme

msroundstweets Oct 3 @ 9:05 PM EDT

@DrewetteCard @jbailey8 absolutely agree; had never thought of it this way before #edchatme

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 9:06 PM EDT

A4) "I don't like it" often comes fr/ a lack of buy in/ voice in the decision. Easy way to fix that: give voice ahead of time! #edchatme

briley8557 Oct 3 @ 9:07 PM EDT

#edchatme often veteran Ts believe they are changing when they are really just "fitting" what they've always done into a new vocabulary.

DrewetteCard - Moderator Oct 3 @ 9:07 PM EDT
