Editor's Notes

  • #9  Enforcers, like police officers, look for compliance and punish non-compliance. Coaches seek to build capacity through supportive, positive relationships.
  • #10  The notion that coaches “fix” people assume that the people in our schools are broken. There is no brokenness, only the need for building capacity which is already there.
  • #11  A coach does not pursue in-depth explorations of someone’s psyche, childhood, or emotional issues. These things may arise during coaching conversations, but a coach should stay focused on the task at hand—a focus on learning and developing new skills and capacities.
  • #13  Experts tend to be alone, celebrating their genius in solitude. Coaches work collaboratively, building capacity in others through the essential coaching skills of listening, paraphrasing, reflecting, and asking questions.
  • #14  Think of a coach as a vehicle of conveyance.
  • #15  The term coach actually comes from Hungary, where, in the 15th century, the village of Kocs began making a horse-drawn carriage that could traverse the rugged terrain of that country. The term transformed into the French word coche, which then became the English term coach. In any language, this term refers to the possibility of taking a person from one place to another. The coaches we have been discussing can take teachers from their current state of performance to their aspirational state of performance, and thus, lead students to greater life outcomes as well.

  • #17 Analyze the ISTE Standards for Educators – How are you going to ”be” in order to build capacity in colleagues and students?
  • #18 Five standards – divide into 5 groups Groups work to prepare their response. Document group response in the Google Doc provided.
  • #19 Analyze the ISTE Standards for Teachers
  • #20 Focus on the 2nd standard: Teaching, learning and assessments Groups discuss – share out
  • #21 Show up first as “coach”
  • #27 When approaching people with a coach mindset, we will be more effective if we suppress unproductive patterns of listening and really listen to understand.
  • #29 Examples of language: With students: Did you do your homework? Instead: What problems did you come across as you did your homework? Have you completed the reading? Instead: What was most surprising to you in the reading? Did you try that strategy? Instead: What result did that strategy have on your students’ learning?
