In this 15-hour, three-week course, expert coaches Heather Clifton and Andy Mendelsberg will unpack the coaching cycle as well as examine practice components of a planning conversation to set the stage for coaches’ ongoing work with teachers. Participants will Illustrate and explain the components of the coaching cycle; synthesize a variety of ways to structure coaching cycles and how to determine which structure is appropriate to use in a particular situation; establish goals with a client for a coaching cycle; examine key supports including demonstration, co-teaching, and observation with data gathering; and identify key questions to ask during planning and reflection conversations. This course will begin in April.
