Synopsis

Have you noticed a gap between what you covered in training and what actually happens in classrooms?

Do you want to see equally skilled and consistent implementation in every classroom?

You are not alone!

Here is the good news.  In this book you will find the information, tools and practical applications for changing teacher behavior in a way that moves the training room into the classroom, where the focus is solely on the proper implementation of new knowledge, skills and behaviors.  In fact, the entire thrust of this book is to help educators -- teachers, administrators, coaches, board members, teacher trainers, and university faculty -- to see clearly how a departure from traditional “teacher training” practices can radically and fundamentally improve instruction for students, speed up implementation time lines for new initiatives, and create sustainable teacher behaviors that improve instructional outcomes for students.  This approach is also far more cost effective than traditional teacher training, a critical factor in today’s educational landscape.

In this fast paced and easy-to-read book, you will learn:

• Why typical teacher development programs always fail
• A new perspective of accelerating teacher learning
• How to formulate an effective change message that motivates people to action
• A systematic approach to increasing teacher performance
• Six high-impact Performance-Based Coaching methods
• How to solidify new skills and Push! teachers to strategic independence
• Three possible ways to schedule your day to actively coach teachers in real-time.
