Decision Making – Consensus

Review Step-by-Step Process on page 173.

In what situations is consensus the most appropriate decision-making tool?

Why not just vote?

16

Facilitator Tool

Decision Making – Consensus

Consensus

• Everyone can “live with” the decision • Establish and use evaluative criteria • • Accept conflict as part of the process Encourage negotiation and collaboration • Emphasize fact over opinion • • • Not about winning or losing Don’t give in just to avoid conflict Flipping coins and voting are not viable alternatives

Consultative

• Key decision-maker accepts input and advice, then acts

Executive

• Decisions designated to a single person or team

Voting

• Majority or 2/3 “yes” can make decision 17

is alignment of standards, curriculum and assessments”?

TASK Identifying Stages of Concern (SoC)

Stages of Concern Expressions of Concern

Stage 6: Refocusing I have some ideas about something that would work even better.

Stage 5: Collaboration Stage 4: Consequence Stage 3: Management I am concerned about relating what I am doing with what my co workers are doing.

How is my use affecting students?

I seem to be spending all of my time getting materials ready.

Stage 2: Personal How will using it affect me?

Stage 1: Informational Stage 0: Awareness I would like to know more about it.

I am not concerned about it.

Stages of Concern (SoC) 35-Item Questionnaire (Pages 140-143) • Valid and reliable instrument • SoC Quick Scoring Device • Technical manual to assist in scoring and interpreting information • Capability of developing concern profile over time Hall & Hord, p. 69; Hall et al., 1979 56

Interventions

• Respect and encourage teacher interests • Channel their ideas and energies; act on their concerns.

• Provide opportunities to develop skills needed to work collaboratively • Rearrange schedules so people can collaborate • Provide positive feedback and needed support • Provide opportunities for teachers to share knowledge and skills • Answer specific “how to” questions • Avoid considering future impact at this time • Address potential personal concerns directly • Implement changes progressively over time • Provide clear and accurate information • Relate changes to current practices • Involve teachers in discussion and decisions • Give permission not to know

Stages of Concern

What are your thoughts/questions/ideas about the Stages of Concern tool?

61

Stages of Concern 62

Levels of Use (LoU)

Additional C-Bam tool to identify if person is a user or nonuser: • • Three non-use levels Five use levels 63

Levels of Use 0 Non-Use 1 Orientation 2 Preparation 3 Mechanical 4A Routine 4B Refinement 5 Integration 6 Renewal

Behaviors Associated with LoU

No interest shown in the innovation; no action taken Begins to gather information about the innovation Begins to plan ways to implement the innovation Concerned about mechanics of implementation Comfortable will innovation and implements it as taught Begins to explore ways for continuous improvement Integrates innovation with other initiatives; does not view it as an add-on; collaborates with others Explores new and different ways to implement innovation

64 Hall & Hord, p. 82

Assessing Individual’s Level of Use Level of Use Survey (Page 144) • Quick assessment of a person’s LoU Any thoughts/concerns/ideas about the LoU Survey?

Popcorn Report Out 65

Comparison of SoC and LoU

“ Stages of Concern (SoC) addresses the

affective

side of change – people’s reactions, feelings, perceptions, and attitudes.” “ Levels of Use portrays

how

(LoU) has to do with behaviors and people are acting with respect to specified change.” Hall & Hord, p. 81 66

Facilitation of TIA

Facilitation is the art of leading people through processes toward agreed-upon objectives in a manner that encourages participation, ownership and creativity from all involved.

Facilitation of TIA

Facilitation seeks to create the conditions that bring out the best in people.

Three Key Questions

1. What does TIA / UBD look like when it is in use?

2. What would we see in classrooms where it is used well?

Not so well?

3. What will teachers and students be doing when TIA / UBD is in use?
