"I adapt well in last-minute situations and have proven this throughout my career. When implementing new technology in the classroom, changes are almost constant, and I have to be ready and willing to adjust at the drop of a hat. Last year, I worked with a district's middle and high school math department to implement the DreamBox tool into the classroom. After listening to the teachers' ideas and creating a customized curriculum within the program, I was asked to make some last-minute formal changes to the geometry curriculum in early August for the upcoming school year. Knowing that the programs were going to start in just a few short weeks, I jumped right into the recommended changes that came from the district. I didn't make the changes personally because I always worked closely with the educators and let them have the final say in the finished product. Over the next week, I stayed in constant email communication with them and was ready with the amended curriculum in time for the new school year."
