If teachers are going to "buy in" to any program they need to see it in action. Seeing is believing.

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers need a way to feel as though PD applies to them and they have a certain level of control over its implementation.

# data[].attributes.headline
In order for PD to teachers to  be effective, teachers must  have the freedom to choose how they create lessons and offer assessments while still adhering to the pacing guide.

Just like a struggling student, if a teacher feels as though they are being attacked they will not accept change. We as teacher educators need to create a safe and respectful environment in which they feel they can grow and develop changes.

# data[].attributes.body
The personal experience of change is complex; few of us adapt new habits of practice without some struggles, and if those new practices also involve a large number of tasks learning probably won't happen.

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers aren't likely to implement new practices unless they are powerful and easy to implement.

# data[].attributes.body
Teachers must feel that they are respected in order for them to be accepting of change.  Most teachers are proud of what they do and in order to make connections with the person offering PD, they must feel that their contributions are valued at they are able to have their side heard.

Summary:PD needs to provide teachers with experience to show them the value of the program.  Teachers need to see the PD in action because the verbal persuasion of the presenter will not convince them it is worth their time and effort.

A history of attempt, attack, and abandon creates a self-destructive pattern in schools.

# data[].attributes.body
We cannot ignore teacher knowledge and creativity within the confines of nonnegotiables.

# data[].attributes.body
Without ease of implementation, teachers will not feel as if they, themselves, or their students will be successful. Teachers may feel as if they will not have time to fit in a new skill or strategy with the current curriculum if that skill or strategy is too complicated to put into action. A relationship must be built among the literacy coach and the instructor because for a behavior to solidify teachers need to see the worth of something new.

We are wasting time and money giving teachers PD they will no implement and teachers view PD as insignificant and it hinders growth.
