Using iCoaching to Support Teachers' Implementation of Evidence-Based Practices
Randolph, Kathleen M.; Duffy, Mary Lou
Journal of Special Education Apprenticeship, v8 n2 Sep 2019
Coaching in the school setting typically follows a teacher observation by an administrator or coach. Feedback is often delayed and does not allow for immediate error correction. Traditional professional development in schools is often a one-day passive receipt of content or strategies, with no time to practice, implement, or follow-up on the strategy to ensure implementation with fidelity. Combining strategies learned in professional development with iCoaching provides teachers with support to implement evidence-based strategies in their own classrooms with fidelity, and bridges the gap between professional development and implementation. This article discusses how to use iCoaching to support strategy implementation for in-service teachers.
