Daily Blog Challenge Day 57/365
A recent conversation on Twitter forced me to reflect on my experiences in the classroom and how some ideas work and some ideas fall flat on their face. An idea that may work for one teacher/class/school may not work for another (even when they seem like great ideas.) I became curious as to why this happens. Is it the idea? Is it the school? Is it the culture? Is it the teacher? It is the implementation?
Is it possible for something to be a good idea, but the execution to be horribly wrong? How do we learn from this as teachers? I think it is easy to write ideas off as bad when it may not have worked for a variety of different reasons. As a music teacher I see this on a daily basis, a technique/exercise or lesson may work perfectly for one class and not for another. No two students are alike and no two classes are alike.
How do you determine if the idea or implementation of an idea is bad? Thank you for reading.
