I believe that learning creates change. Especially in our quest as educators to always provide our students with best teaching practices. The more we learn, the more we refine our teaching skills. When we really learn about our students and their needs, we adapt what we do to meet those needs. I love to learn but am not comfortable with change. I like my established routines and the comfort of knowing what I am doing and what I will do next. I have not thought about the transitions associated with change before. It makes sense to me that it isn't the learning and adaptation to that, it is more the transition that I struggle with. The discomfort of reaching beyond that which I clearly understand and uncertainty of where it will bring me. I am such a "why" person that the statement of change making sense and being "owned" must have been written for me! For me, change that makes sense and is something that I can own overrides the discomfort of the transition times and allows me to travel the path of confusion.
