There are no upcoming dates for this event.
Our year-long Intensive Instructional Coaching Institutes consist of 5-6 full-day sessions spread out over the course of several months to a year. This allows for the reinforcement of key concepts over a greater span of time as well as opportunities for implementation between each session and more focused goals upon each returning session.
ICG presenters travel to the participating district for these sessions, making intensive instructional institutes a great option for anyone who cannot travel to Lawrence, Kansas for the week-long Intensive Instructional Coaching Institutes. All registrants must attend all 5-6 dates included in the institute.
WHat are these events based on?
To succeed, instructional coaches need deep knowledge and skills in at least six essential domains. These domains are addressed in Jim Knight’s five-day intensive institute for professional development.
- Adult learning
- An instructional coaching cycle
- Using video recordings to gather data
- Instructional practices described in an instructional playbook
- Communication skills
- Leadership skills
WHY SHOULD I ATTEND An intensive instructional INSTITUTE? WHAT TOPICS WILL THEY FOCUS ON?
- The five core concepts of change literacy, and how instructional coaches should address those concepts during coaching
- Partnership principles, and how coaches should use them to guide their interactions
- The Impact Cycle, and how it should be used by coaches in partnership with teachers to:
- Set goals and identify teaching strategies to hit goals
- Ensure teachers understand new teaching strategies
- Provide support until teachers hit the identified goals
- PEERS goals: how they are different from SMART goals, and how they should be used to guide coaching
- Video recording as an essential part of instructional coaching, and what coaches can do to dramatically decrease teacher resistance to video recording their lessons
- The data that instructional coaches should gather to help teachers set goals and monitor progress
- Instructional playbook: what it is, and the high-impact teaching strategies that should be a part of it
- Communication beliefs and habits that lead to effective coaching conversations, and how coaches can master those beliefs
- Coaching leadership to have the greatest positive impact on teaching and learning
