Unlike “fix-it” strategies that targeted teachers are likely to resist, educator-centered instructional coaching—ECIC—offers respectful coaching for professionals within their schoolwide community. Evidence-based results across all content areas, authentic practices for data collection and analysis, along with nonevaluative, confidential collaboration offer a productive and promising path to teacher development. Coaches and teachers implement ECIC through a before-during-after—BDA—cycle that includes comprehensive planning between coach and teacher; classroom visitation and data collection; and debriefing and reflection. Drawing on their extensive experience with ECIC, authors Ellen B. Eisenberg, Bruce P. Eisenberg, Elliott A. Medrich, and Ivan Charner offer this detailed guidance for coaches and school leaders on how you and your school can * create the conditions for an effective ECIC program, * get buy-in from teachers, * clearly define the role of coach, * roll out a coaching initiative, and * ensure ongoing success with coaching. Filled with authentic advice from coaches, Instructional Coaching in Action provides valuable insight and demonstrates how educator-centered instructional coaching can make a difference in teacher learning, instructional practice, and student outcomes.
Eschewing "fix-it" intervention in favor of respectful professionalism, this book's educator-centered instructional coaching (ECIC) model offers a breakthrough approach to help good teachers become great.
Partnerships between postsecondary education institutions and employers, unions, professional associations, and other groups are discussed. The majority of examples are based on projects of the Education and the Economy Alliance, a program supported by the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education. Partnerships and joint, or collaborative, activities of colleges and these groups often involve research, economic development, and human resource development. Research partnerships may be basic or applied and may lead to new and profitable products. Economic development partnerships frequently concern community development, institutional development, and business development. Human resource development partnerships can be categorized as: entry-level preparation and orientation, technical skill development and maintenance, career transition preparation and skill enhancement, and career completion. The following basic factors involved in collaboration are considered: the organization's mission, the location within an organization of the partnership project, the level of leadership involvement with the project, and the depth of collaboration (i.e., how deeply felt are the values and practices of collaboration).
