Creative Coaching
Kristin Parone & Lisa RiceMRA Conference
April 7, 2017
To learn creative ways to share information with your teachers.
To learn about out of the box resources for creative coaching.
Agenda
Malcolm Gladwell, the author of Outliers: The Story of Success (2008), calculated that it takes
ten thousand hours of deliberate practice to master a complex skill.
This is equivalent to seven years for teachers working on a typical school calendar.
Research
Research has shown that educators want PD to:
● improve craft● help be more effective● allow time and
resources to implement new skills
● increase student learning
PD has traditionally been day long trainings, such as in
August, with possibly a couple of follow-up sessions
throughout that school year.
This kind of PD by itself rarely results in:
● a significant change in practice
● increase learning for students
Traditional PD
According to a study on professional development,
teachers need close to fifty hours of PD in a specific area to improve
their own skills and student learning (Darling-Hammond and
others, 2009).
As we learn from the research the ineffectiveness of
"one-shot" PD, coaches need to search for new and creative
ways to support educators.
