Working with your colleagues and administrators: Strategies for leading change - Pamela Eddy

Working with your colleagues and administrators: Strategies for leading change

This session will address how to lead change based on your own leadership perspectives and what type of change is required at your college. A range of case study scenarios will be employed to help you test drive and practice how you can effect change on your campus and lead others. Resistance to change is often strong, thus we'll also look at strategies to break through the types of barriers that often stop change initiatives.

Engaging your regional community and designing your regional workshop I - Carol Ormand and John McDaris

These two days will focus on engaging your regional community of other 2YC geoscience educators and designing the regional workshop your team will offer in fall 2018 or winter 2019. What are ways to engage your 2YC geoscience colleagues in your region, both full-time and adjunct? How does one plan and lead an effective professional development workshop? SAGE 2YC has many resources to support you in the design of the workshops as a whole as well as the design of specific sessions. You will leave the workshop having made progress on your regional workshop plans and webpages.

Wrap-up, questions, and daily roadcheck

Asynchronous work on Thursday, after Thursday's workshop (~ 10-15 minutes of individual work)

  • Respond via the discussion thread in preparation for the next part of the workshop: Reflecting on workshops you have attended, what are some of the practices that have worked well for you? What are things that haven't worked for you?
