Book Description

April 26, 2000
Can teachers, principals, and professors lead their students toward profound learning until they have been there themselves? Peer coaching offers a remarkable vehicle to join with students as learners and together build a community of learners. Peer coaching is a powerful process whereby professional educators can assist and be assisted by fellow educators of equal status, and this volume presents it all with clarity, economy, honesty, and conviction. This volume will be of interest and value not only to classroom teachers and school administrators, but also to central office personnel, and university faculty committed to promoting adult development within the schools.

Review

Reviews of the first edition: It's all here. A thoughtful rationale for peer coaching; what it is and what it isn't; who does what and in what sequence; and why a system should get it going...this tidy, approachable little volume will be of great value...to classroom teachers and school administrators.... (Roland S. Barth )

5.0 out of 5 stars Peer Coaching for Educators is a Practical Solution, June 24, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Peer Coaching for Educators: Second Edition (Paperback)
The second edition of Peer Coaching for Educators still contains the basic guidelines and transparency masters for setting up a peer coaching program in a school, department or student teaching program. The simple five step process can be transferred to active practice with rules, checklists, sample scripts, and suggestions for feedback and coaching. The new comparisons with teacher evaluation and peer review teams will be valuable to administrators and district officers. Best of all, this model of peer coaching can be used for peers who are teachers, peer who are administrators, and peers who are staff development trainers.
