Jim Knight, president of the Instructional Coaching Group, has spent more than a decade studying instructional coaching. He’s changed the way teachers teach, and significantly improved the way students learn.
In this conversation, Jim and I discuss:
- Why simplicity is the key to going viral and spreading ideas.
- Which “this is broken” moment changed Jim’s approach to teaching.
- The importance of “selective incompetence.”
- How instructional coaching positions the teacher as a partner.
- The key principles of partnership, and the difference between “dialogical coaching” and “facilitative coaching.”
