DESCRIPTION
Letting go of the reins may seem a bit daunting in the middle grades, but there is growing evidence confirming the positive impact of stepping back from teacher-led direct instruction to serve more as a supportive coach. Coaches empower students to develop a stronger sense of ownership, pride, and responsibility in their learning. In addition, coaches encourage students to be more responsible, accountable, and self-directed as they develop the confidence, tenacity, and self-efficacy for continued success in high school and beyond. Join us for this webinar of research and discussion about how to be an effective and inspiring coach for students.
