I know it is better for me to learn by doing, but I always need to keep in mind that it isn't always the best way for my students to learn. In the end, that is what they do, but initially some need more demonstration than others.

This section suggested that it is harder to "train" instructors that have been around for a while. Sure at times that can be true, but it can't be generalized. All of my co-workers have have been teaching longer than I have, except one. Probably all are willing to learn new things. Sometimes it is not easy for them to buy into it, but usually they see how some of the new ways of doing things are better. Just by improving technology every instructor has to learn something new. Anyone still using a typewriter?
