Effective Teaching Cooperative. Title VI Excellence in Education Program. Final Report.
Ham, Maryellen C.; Jacob, Donna
This project focused on both students and their teachers. Through the SLICK (Summer Learning in Colchester for Kids) component, children were afforded the opportunity to participate in several enrichment courses during the summer of 1987. Through the effective teaching component, teachers assisted in training their peers, and coached one another in applying effective teaching techniques. A graduate course in effective teaching was also offered to district teachers. The theoretical framework of the project was based on research findings in three areas: instructional skills, coaching skills, and supervision strategies. The first section of this report presents an overview of the project including descriptions of background information, grant development, objectives, participants, and funding. In section two, a description of the implementation of the project includes staff and student activities, project timeline, and specific course offerings in SLICK. An evaluation of the project comprises section three. The final section summarizes the project and discusses future implications. Detailed descriptions of the project components are appended, as well as the Effective Teaching Cooperative Handbook. (JD)
