Goals What is a coach? What is the connection between coaching and professional development? What can I expect from a coach?

What is a Coach? An instructional coach partners with teachers to help them incorporate research-based instructional practices into their teaching. ~ Dr. Jim Knight

What is the Role of a Coach? To help teachers transfer what they learn about new research based practices to their classrooms Help establish a safe environment in which teachers can strive to improve their practices without fear of negative criticism or evaluation

Help teachers develop leadership skills with which they can support the work of their colleagues Provide whole group, small-group and individual professional development sessions for teachers Adapted from Neufeld and Roper, Educational Matters, 2003

What About Professional Development? Nothing has promised so much and has been so frustratingly wasteful as the thousands of workshops and conferences that led to no significant change in practice when teachers returned to their classroom. Fullan, “The New Meaning of Educational Change,” 1991

Sustained, ongoing, job-embedded professional development…with follow-up support!
