Teachers as Classroom Coaches
Students in extracurricular activities often have coaches, yet it is students in classrooms who are most in need of
the motivation and support that coaches provide. Learn how to apply the same methods that winning professional coaches
use to increase student achievement in all subjects and at all grade levels. These strategies, which have been used
successfully in some of the most diverse classrooms in the country, can help to ensure harmonious group work, improve
organizational and note-taking skills, overcome emotional and environmental roadblocks, resolve conflicts among students,
and empower students by allowing them ownership of their work.
