The+ISW+and+Seasoned+Faculty

=How do you respond to challenges with seasoned faculty?= Please edit and add to this list. Participants attending the meeting at Bow Valley College were interviewed and here's what they suggest:
 * allow them to be heard
 * acknowledge their resistence
 * "play down" negative
 * addressing subtleties in classroom (i.e. body language)
 * ask directly if they are ready to receive feedback in Mini-lesson cycle
 * they set goals - remind them of their goals - ownership of learning
 * challenge them to share what they know
 * challenge them:
 * new domain
 * higher level objective
 * new instructional technique
 * explore why they are there
 * ensure they have strategies to their expressed issues - address their burning question
 * hold "viewpoints" until the end
 * create another program for "seasoned" instructors
 * be clear on what ISW is and give opt out option (when they arrive or when they inquire / register)
 * acknowledge expertise / their experience
 * ensure administrators are supportive of ISW ... thus advocating
 * private chat / venting
 * parking lot activity
 * encourage leaders NOT to send faculty to an ISW as a remediation strategy.
