Coaching Presentation ICTEV 2008
Posted by Lauren O Grady on June 2, 2008
Hi All,
As promised here is my presentation and resources for my coaching plans. The main points from the presentation was that coaching is a partnership where teacher and coach discuss, observe and reflect on specific aspects of teaching practice whereby it:
?Reaffirming strengths in teaching
?Models good practice
?Provides opportunity for professional learning
?Promoting the exchange of good ideas and resources
?Shares the demands of the job
?A confidential process
I am very keen to hear how other schools are using coaches to improve classroom instruction.

These goals are very powerful. It seems to me that teachers need this type of confidential opportunity.
I think school districts should make this service available for teachers in such a way that no one knows who is receiving services. That would be difficult to work out though. Thanks for the posting.
