Teachers care about creating authentic learning experiences, and it’s up to coaches to show how technology can help them do that. As tech integration specialist Krista Moroder pointed out, most teachers don’t care about technology — nor should they.

Like many of us committed to public education, I'm constantly searching for what's working and what can be replicated. This year I've discovered two essential ingredients for any successful school system to be effective. Think of these ingredients as the yeast and flour of any kind of bread -- obvious and essential -- and they must be used in combination with each other. I'll name these two staples as "The Destination" and "The Road Map."

Finally, the Annenberg report determined that coaching supports collective leadership across a school system. An essential feature of coaching is that it uses the relationships between coaches, principals, and teachers to create the conversation that leads to behavioral, pedagogical, and content knowledge change. Effective coaching distributes leadership and keeps the focus on teaching and learning.

What I learned from this article is how a good coach on the field, can help a student's performance in the classroom. Strong and successful sports programs create atmospheres on campuses that help success in the classroom. Principles should take this into mind when hiring a coach. They can't just hire somebody with a good playbook but rather role models and well respected individuals that will create young men and women who challenge themselves outside of sports.
In this particular article, what I found most educational is when the author said "Coaching is an essential component of an effective professional development program. Coaching can build will, skill, knowledge, and capacity because it can go where no other professional development has gone before: into the intellect, behaviors, practices, beliefs, values, and feelings of an educator. " This is such a powerful statement. I have for years personally seen how coaching affects an individual. I had a football coach in high school that demanded the best from us not just on the field but in the classroom and as a person. This coach meant a lot to me, he was very knowledgeable, successful, and well respected that I treated his word like gospel. During the season I actually saw an increase in grades and personally happiness. Coaches can have a personal relationship with their players that no teacher, principle, or other faculty member can imitate. Sports is a powerful tool and when used correctly can change lives; not only of that individual but his peers too. I selected because the title really grabbed my attention. Often times we hear how sports can really help a student or employee in their respective environments so I thought it was really interesting to see an article on how teachers can also benefit from sports. A good sports program directly translate into a good academic program at an institution. This article gave me even more of an understanding on exactly how much sports affect all aspects of life. Sports go way beyond the playing field, they carry over into relationships and even occupations. Everything in life you do that isn't individual, needs teamwork. Whether that be wife and husband or employee and employer, sports have and continue to prove that teamwork gets things done the best. Sacrificing personal agendas to achieve greater goals is a must and sports have taught us this over the years.

'Coaching' as a staff Professional Development Tool This year my school has introduced a 'Coaching' scheme for staff in an attempt to help staff develop their strengths and weaknesses in an internally driven and supported manner. We run on a Australian School year so it runs from January - December. We have had a magnificent start to the New Year and this new process was introduced to all staff during our professional development days in January.

Dans une économie de la production, la création de valeur est fondée sur le territoire, le travail et le capital.
Dans une économie du savoir, la création de valeur dépend principalement des idées et de l'innovation qui se trouvent dans la tête des gens.
La performance d’une entreprise dépend donc de sa capacité à mobiliser l'intelligence collective et les connaissances.
S'il faut et s'il faudra toujours savoir produire et vendre, ce n'est plus aujourd'hui un facteur suffisamment différenciateur dans la compétition internationale.
Hier, l'entreprise était industrielle et commerciale, demain il faudra qu'elle soit de plus en plus une entreprise intelligente.
Dans ce cadre, le coaching apparaît comme un outil puissant. En savoir plus : http://communicationorganisation.revues.org/3353

Your growth depends on your ability to pull value from criticism in spite of your natural responses and on your willingness to seek out even more advice and coaching from bosses, peers, and subordinates. They may be good or bad at providing it, or they may have little time for it—but you are the most important factor in your own development. If you’re determined to learn from whatever feedback you get, no one can stop you.

“Teaching and facilitating are the ultimate ways to reach excellent mental conditioning and to challenge students to become better all-round learners for life.
You can help your students reach their potential as a Sprinter or Olympic learner. The analogy is simple: begin with the end in mind, recognizing that all teaching, all learning, all preparation requires time, training, and transitions.

Letting students take more active roles in their learning doesn't mean teachers should take more passive roles. It means we should take new roles. We should assess students before assisting them. We should prepare for students' mistakes rather than try to prevent them. We should facilitate less whole-group instruction, and more whole-group discussion.
We should do what Yves Kabore has done to enable 6th graders to "fly through" material many 10th graders would find challenging: coach students rather than teach students.

Instructional coaches seem to be a new phenomenon in schools. Their job is to help educators become better teachers. They observe teachers teaching, go over instructional data, and model good teaching practices. As much as this may be new for schools, the core of instructional coaching has been around for a long time.

Cause-Effect Coaching
David uses a “cause-effect coaching” method. He shows teachers what they are doing or are not doing (the cause) and how it is related to what the students are learning or not learning (the effect). The purpose is to show the teacher that the students may not be the cause of why the students are not learning.
The cause-effect concept was shown in the original work on classroom management by Jacob Kounin. He summarized his research from observing teachers and classrooms and concluded that it was “the behavior of the teacher and not the behavior of the students that resulted in student learning.”
David says:
==> “School leaders and teachers must always examine how their actions or inactions may be creating barriers or creating enhancements to learning.” <==
