Order 2482286: Beginning Teacher Observation & Feedback

D: Beginning Teacher Observation & Feedback: Beginning teachers often require a substantial amount of support as they work to improve their craft. As a principal, you will be responsible for implementing an observation and coaching cycle aimed at fostering the development of beginning teachers. In collaboration with your principal mentor, recommend possible improvements in instruction by executing a coaching cycle (pre-conference, observation, post-conference) with one beginning teacher, Mrs. Raquel Hyer. During the pre-conference, identify with the beginning teacher areas for improvement (more classwork/art work displayed around the classroom & have aides help teach at each of the 3 group tables…) and include recomendations on the effective use of technology-Mrs. Raquel did a great job incorporating a program called technology into her social studies lesson used with her special education Autism students.

After completing your coaching cycle, address the following in a 550-word summary and reflection:

· Summarize the pre-conference, the observation, and the post-conference you completed in the coaching cycle. In the summary, explain the recommendations you made and justify how each will continue to develop the teacher’s instructional capacity. Describe the teacher’s performance based on the improvements you suggested in the pre-conference.

· Describe the recommendations you made for the effective use of technology, and explain how each supports teaching and learning in that classroom environment.

· Explain how your coaching promoted a school culture conducive to collaboration, trust, and a personalized learning environment with high expectations for students.

· Reflect on your role as a teacher coach, and how self-awareness, vulnerability, transparency, and ethical behavior contribute to being a successful coach. Provide a minimum of three scholarly sources to support your feedback. APA. RUBRIC:
