What Makes Change Hard?

Abstract

Transforming mathematics courses, programs and departments so all students have equitable, effective learning opportunities aligned with their aspirations is a big challenge. Step one in making progress on this challenge is understanding the nature of the changes that are needed. In this session, we will analyze what makes our challenge especially challenging. Then we will consider some leadership practices that are especially well-suited to supporting change in complex situations.
