Coaching cycles are the most powerful contact a coach can have with teachers, but these coaching cycles are also the activity that requires the highest level of skill.
Collaboratively planning and observing lessons, and giving supportive feedback on those lessons, is the best way to improve the effectiveness of teaching and therefore student outcomes. Yet this core activity is often undermined by the countless other demands on a coach's time.
This book addresses the issues, roadblocks, and fears faced by coaches and administrators in effectively launching and facilitating a program of coaching and takes you through the coaching cycle itself in practical, applied, and no-nonsense steps that will help you maximize its impact.
If you are a coach, a coach of coaches, or an administrator, following the steps in this book will help you achieve a significant return on your coaching investment. There will be more teachers coached, increased instructional effectiveness, and ultimately increased student achievement.
