I have just finished this 6-week amazing course on
coaching and mentoring of teachers in crisis contexts. It was organized by the Carey Institute for Global Good and led by Amazing Dr Rosemary Arca. I really did enjoy it.
The Course e
xplores how to coach refugee educators; discusses coaching methods and routines that support faculty including examples of effective lessons, weekly messages and lesson comments; and include discussion on reflective practice and provide strategies to support faculty as they learn and implement the practice to deepen reflection on their work. Learning facilitator: Professor Emerita Rosemary Arca, author of the Coaching Field Guide for the City University of New York (CUNY) Reflective Practice Institute.
The course's learning objectives:
The framing questions are:
1. What is reflective coaching and why is it a powerful tool?
2. What expertise leads to successful coaching?
3. How is skill in the craft of coaching developed?
4. What activities enrich a coaching relationship?
5. When do coaches intervene, triage or nudge toward change?
6. How do coaches themselves grow and innovate?
