An effective coach will help the Direct Instruction teacher evolve from a technician to an engineer of instruction. This session will provide participants with information and practice in:

• Refining observational skills to increase the coach’s ability to provide data-driven feedback, including both short and extended observations.

• Facilitating rehearsal sessions to provide practice for instructional staff in lesson formats and program content.

• Determining the appropriate intervention based on student performance data and observations. (A brief overview of written records in the Direct Instruction classroom will be provided as part of this training.)

• Facilitating Data Analysis Team meetings to find and solve student performance problems in a timely manner.
