POGIL curriculum has been used in the organic classroom at Grand View University starting in the fall of 2007.  The change in teaching pedagogy was met with resistance from students and other faculty members.  This presentation will share the lessons learned from starting POGIL for the first time.  It will address how the program grew through the transformation from a more traditional teaching approach to a learner centered, engaged approach.    The change in culture and expectation of the community will also be discussed.
