and coaching professional development. With so many new initiatives
and requirements to be incorporated into classroom teaching and
assessment, this resource gives school leaders, staff developers
and consultants everything they need to successfully guide staff to
greater effectiveness and ultimately benefit student achievement.
The book is built around four critical roles of the staff
developer, and provides the knowledge base, skills, and tools for
success. Photocopiables for helping staff process and transfer new
learning are also included. This resource also presents important
information about customizing professional development for the
needs of adult learners, sustaining and extending new strengths,
and promoting the critical transfer of new learning into practice.
Strategies and questions to promote reflective processing are
threaded throughout. From Staff Room to Classroom offers readers
guidance as well as practical know-how and how-to distilled from
the career experience of a distinguished international professional
developer.
How do we truly help students achieve their fullest potential? What
are the roles of motivation, deliberate practice, and coaching in
developing talent and abilities in students? This hands-on guide
examines each of these elements in detail providing definitions,
relevant research, discussions, examples, and practical steps to
take with students in elementary, middle, and high school. The
authors examine cutting-edge research on world-class performance
and distill information specifically for educators. Offering
guidelines to help teachers spot and encourage students'
exceptional aptitudes, passionate interests, and special strengths,
they show concretely how to promote greater motivation for learning
and success. This foundational book infuses new ideas into
established teaching. User-friendly chapters include
thought-provoking insights, vignettes of how notable talents were
developed, teaching and learning tips, grade-level examples, and
discussion questions.
