Description
How do you discipline someone for insubordination when what they are doing is working? This film explores the challenges of curriculum adoption and instructional innovation. Driving implementation of a new curriculum or instructional approach can be tough and met with resistance if what was previously installed was working. In this film, the school leader finds herself dealing with a teacher who is a respected, master teacher who get results but refuses to follow mandates to implement a new curriculum. Do you squash a record of success or push forward with unproven, but required, methods?
