Implementing best practices, however well supported by research, is resisted by both circumstances and people. Thus, what you read and hear about methods others have used must be modified and compromised to fit the situation at your institution, sadly not always allowing maximum effectiveness. Second, to convince others to accept the practices you wish to implement, you may have to adopt arguments that are not based on the value of the practice or the research that supports its use, but on benefits that are not academic or student-centered. You need to think of all the implications of your anticipated practice…and trust the force.
