Education Assignment 3

Key characters include a teacher in problematic spring wardrobe, staff members who point out the problem to you, and an instructional math coach who is concerned about the novice teacher’s mathematics instruction.

Trade-offs to consider: - Should the principal address the dress code issue alone or include the school counselor, while risking embarrassment either way. Does the principal’s gender play a role in this decision? - Should the principal address all criticisms in a single conversation or address the most important issue first, risking confusion either way. Are dress code concerns more important than concerns about mathematics instruction? - Should a principal divulge the exact source of concerns, divulge a generic source of concerns, or avoid mentioning the source of concerns, risking issues of trust. Is it all right to share the source of concerns? - What is the process for instructional coaches to share concerns about a teacher’s instruction?
