Melbourne, FL, September 03, 2024 - A School Leader's Guide to Enhancing Teacher Effectiveness and Student Achievement
Deliberate Coaching by Paul Gavoni and Nicholas L. Weatherly
For decades, the U.S. education system’s focus when supporting teachers has been telling teachers what they should be doing and providing poor evaluations when they don’t do it. If we want students to achieve, we must improve our methods of training and coaching teachers.
Introducing Deliberate Coaching: Optimizing Teaching and Learning Through Behavior Science [979-8-9886548-6-5; $29.95; KeyPress Publishing; September 2024] by noted authors Paul Gavoni and Nicholas L. Weatherly, the must-have guidebook for educational leaders looking to create substantial, measurable improvements in teaching quality and student performance.
Written for educational leaders and anyone tasked with supporting school improvement, including district leaders, school administrators, and school psychologists, Deliberate Coaching delivers a behavioral science-backed approach to coaching educators. Using a practical framework for real-world application, the approach ensures professional development efforts, school improvement plans, and performance-improvement approaches lead to significant, sustainable, and replicable outcomes.
“In our opinion, a big problem is that teacher and leader preparation and induction programs are primarily rooted in theory, with little practice and oftentimes zero coaching to help apply skills they learn to the school,” the coauthors explain. Deliberate Coaching addresses the inefficacy of conventional training and performance-improvement methods and offers efficient alternatives that can be applied quickly and easily.
Deliberate Coaching can enable people to reach the highest levels of success through a measurable process that progressively helps educators perform a little bit better tomorrow than they did today, ultimately benefiting students.
