I’m often told that schools don’t have time to focus on teaching and learning. The reality is they don’t make time. Instructional coaching doesn’t demand a ton of time—it takes just 20-30 minutes to deliver a sharp and purposeful feedback session around a single, granular action step. Done right, it not only improves instruction but … Continue reading When something matters, we make time for it| Education Rickshaw

The problem with conventional “sit and get” PD is that it doesn’t often contain the mechanisms that lead to adoption of effective techniques. Listening to someone talk about “best practice” is far from a guarantee that this information, no matter how persuasive, will transfer into the classroom. Instructional coaching is perhaps the best evidenced solution … Continue reading The Problem with “Sit and Get” PD and Conventional Instructional Coaching| Education Rickshaw

Last year, Amanda VanDerHeyden, while interviewing for my podcast, began listing schools and organizations that had been championing the science of learning long before the term had entered our vernacular.
