Every few years, some expert figures out a way to teach (insert subject area here) better and the curriculum directors all jump on and decide that they've been approaching (insert subject area here) all wrong, and it needs to be taught THIS way. So the teachers then have to adjust their teaching method. Even in my short time in education, I have seen this happen at least twice. When I was student teaching, I was practically teaching the veteran teachers the new way their district wanted to teach reading because I had just learned it in college....those who think that teachers are resistant to change have NO IDEA of the change foisted upon teachers over and over again. The very idea is laughable.thinkernoreply@blogger.com
