Abstract | In this article, the author offers advice for principals on working with teachers to change the instructional climate and on how to apply brain-friendly instructions to improve the effectiveness of one's teaching. To lead an entire district toward the use of brain-compatible instruction, the author suggests to start with a group of motivated teachers to plant the seeds of climate change. Tell these teachers that one wants to support their focus in this area by sending them to a terrific workshop. When these teachers return from the workshop full of motivation, offer an allowance to buy some related books and support them in starting a study/discussion group. To effect change in students, one must work through each teacher. Since principals will have been learning about brain-compatible instructional strategies alongside some teachers, they have a wonderful opportunity to share advice. The principal should be in the best position to determine the most effective way to accomplish this sharing among faculty. (ERIC). |
