Fighting for Change in Your School: How to Avoid Fads and Focus on Substance

August 29, 2017, 3:00 p.m. eastern time

Because every educator's goal is to help students succeed, we are always searching for innovative changes and reforms, or revisited classical practices, to influence teaching and learning. However, this goal is undermined by education fads that negatively affect student achievement, teacher success, leadership effectiveness, fiscal accountability, professional learning, and the public's confidence in schools. Fortunately, educators can take control of this dilemma through thoughtful decision making and collaborative actions related to avoiding fads and focusing on practices of substance.

In this engaging webinar based on his book Fighting for Change in Your School: How to Avoid Fads and Focus on Substance, author Harvey Alvy will highlight six red flags that signal education fads (the narrative trap, the overpromise, minimizing the difficulty of implementation, eyes off the prize, historical amnesia, and the business "solution") and six countervailing action guidelines for educators to disrupt the fads (building collaborative communities, using human and material resources effectively, respecting the change process, sustaining mission and vision, embracing timeless and eclectic teaching practices, and championing and empowering the underserved). Join Harvey Alvy for this important conversation on how to wisely pursue substantive reforms.
