Description

In the dynamic world of education, teachers often experience cognitive biases that make them wary of change, viewing new initiatives as additional burdens rather than opportunities for growth. This session delves into this phenomenon, examining how these biases and an “immunity to change” mindset can hinder educational progress. We'll explore appreciative inquiry as a tool to shift perspectives and foster a positive outlook on change in school settings.

Objectives

  • Gain insights into teachers' diverse mindsets regarding change, exploring the factors influencing their perspectives and attitudes.
  • Develop effective strategies to engage and support teachers in embracing change, fostering an environment conducive to a growth-oriented mindset.
  • Acquire techniques to cultivate a culture that values and encourages change and a culture of error, empowering teachers to embrace it as an opportunity for professional growth and enhanced student outcomes.
