Instructional Coaching with the End in Mind: Using Backward Planning to Increase Student Achievement

Steve Barkley's concept of "backwards planning" shifts the process of teaching practices, coaching, and professional staff development in significant and comprehensive ways. Steve's research suggests that teachers don't cause student achievement; students do, when armed with the right learning behaviors taught and modeled by others. From those behaviors, they become lifelong learners. Receive guidance and insights into specific coaching skills, questioning strategies, and ways to work with principals. The result ensures that teachers are fully supported in the highly complex and challenging world of education. We hope this book will both inspire you to continue or initiate a coaching program, and serve as a resource as you implement and build your own coaching program.
